"I swear to you Morales better have something for us today" Olivia said as she followed Elliot into 1PP where TARU was stationed.

"I know"

"No I don't think you do" Olivia responded as she stepped on to the elevator "I'm in the mood to kill this bitch with my bare hands screw the justice system."

"Olivia" Elliot said in a warning tone.

"Don't Olivia me Elliot" Olivia growled back "You weren't there this morning when she had another flashback. You weren't the one she called Jess. You weren't the one that she looked at with the eyes of someone who had given up as she began to remove her shirt and asked how did I want it? So don't Olivia me."

"My god Liv what happened?"

"In truth it's my fault." Olivia admitted hanging her head "She walked into the kitchen and ordered me to take it off."

"Oh did she now." Elliot said with a smirk on his face.

"Wipe the grin off now" Olivia growled clenching her fist at her side. She had already been pushed to her limits to day and wanted to pummel something with her fists. "She was talking about my badge and gun."

"You're a cop with NYPD of course you have a badge and gun" Elliot said confused on why Alex didn't want her wearing her badge and gun.

"Really I didn't know" Olivia said taking a deep breath to stop the direction they were heading and with the mood she was in it would lead to blows "She knows my disability runs out next month and that I have to get back to work and she doesn't want me returning till the doctor clears me one hundred percent and has offered to pay my bills until I can return."

"Oh to be a kept woman."

"I'm going to show you kept woman if you don't shut your damn mouth."

"I'm sorry LIv" Elliot said raising his hand in defeat.

"I know."

"So seeing you with your badge and gun set her off? There's nothing in the file we have that indicates Jess ever had a job that required a badge or gun of any sorts."

"That wasn't what set her off. When she placed her hand on my weapon my training kicked in and I removed her hand. Carefully and easily might I add."

"That set her off?"

"Apparently in the past Jess, the wonderful bitch that she is, would grab Alex by the wrist and then wrench it behind her back so hard that Alex thought she would break her wrists. Then follow it up with some sort of sexual torture."

"Liv I'm sorry."

"Not as sorry as she will be when I get my hands on her. I promise you that."

"Liv think for a minute" Elliot said stopping her as they stepped off the elevator "What good are you going to be to Alex if you lose everything and go to prison."

"At this point I don't care." Olivia said leaning against the wall "At least she would never have to worry about her again."

"And what she goes through everything alone? Is that what you want?"

"NO IT'S NOT" Olivia screamed.

"Then let's do this legally because Alex needs you more than either of you are willing to admit. She needs someone who will stand by her and help her. Someone who has experience with victims and has the ability to help them through everything, that someone is you."

"I know." Olivia sighed pushing off the wall "Let's see if Morales can get us one step closer."

"Tell us you have some good news." Elliot said walking into TARU and spotting Morales at a computer.

"Yes and no." Morales said looking up from the computer.

"OK let's have it." Olivia said pulling up a chair.

"Like I suspected the micro camera's and the mini bugs are a dime a dozen and can be bought off a variety of websites most of which are outside the United States."

"But…" Elliot said

"But the two recording devices have serial numbers that are traceable. They were registered to a store in Westbury called Micro Center. They were purchased a little over a month ago and before you asked they were purchased with cash. The store does have security cameras but they only keep the footage for thirty days. We have missed that mark by seven days."

"Is there a chance that they haven't erased that footage yet?" Olivia asked praying for a break that they desperately needed.

"I called the owner first thing this morning. It's on an automatic loop so we lost all footage seven days ago."

"Damn it" Olivia growled through clenched teeth as she swiped the paperwork on the desk into the floor.

"Bad day already?" Morales asked looking from Olivia to Elliot

"Oh yeah." Elliot answered "Is there any chance you were able to obtain any other type of evidence from the devices."

"How will fingerprints work for you?" Morales asked with a smile.

"Fingerprints?" Olivia asked perking up "You found fingerprints and matched them?"

"I did. They match to Jessica Johnson."

"I could kiss you right now."

"Talk about a one eighty there." Morales said with a laugh "Wouldn't mind it detective but I think my wife might and something tells me that Alex would too."

"No you don't understand" Olivia said excited "Jess has never been in that apartment ever legally. Alex moved not long after they broke up and never told her where she lived. That means we have her own breaking and entering too. We can put her physically in the apartment."

"That's great Liv, but I hate to be the bearer of bad news but how do we draw her out."

"That is a waiting game that I hate having to play." Olivia began to explain "We have stopped all methods of keeping tabs on Alex. That is bound to piss her off. So now we have wait for the next move and hopefully it will be soon."

"You think she will show?" Elliot asked.

"Oh I'm willing to bet my life on it." Olivia said as she headed toward the door with Elliot quick on her heels.


A/N: So we owe this beautiful chapter to the drunk and high female who wanted to fight last night. Nothing gets my brain going than a good fight at work with plenty of paperwork to follow. We are getting closer and closer to nailing that wonderful Jess. Slowly yet surely she is nailing her coffin shut as we like to say. Allow me to say thank you for all the reviews and PM's I have received. I love you guys.
