Chapter 1

Chapter one

Elliott 

I burst in through the emergency room, continuous tears rolling down my cheeks. I walk up to the nurses station and choke, hysterical, "My daughter, she's three years old...her daycare called me..."

Before I could finish, paramedics were rushing her in from the ambulance dock. "Macy Adams, three years old, suffering severe asthma. Asthma inhaler ran out at the daycare," a female medic says to a female doctor. 

"Macy," I choke in sobs, running alongside them and take her small hand in mine. "Daddy's here Mace."

Her wheezing made it difficult for her to speak, but she seemed relieved I was there. She squeezes my hand as tight as she could. She keeps her eyes on mine as they get her in a private room and hook her up for a medicine for her to breathe in and calm her breathing.

"Is her..." the doctor starts asking about her mother and I quickly shake my head, gesturing towards the hall. "I'm sorry, I didn't realize her mother was a sensitive subject."

"She was killed in a tragic car accident while I was on duty, two years ago. I'm lucky to still have my daughter," I choke quietly and she gives me sympathetic eyes.

I break into uncontrolled sobs and she stands on tiptoe to take my tall frame in her arms. It's the first I've broke down since the accident. Macy is all I have for family. As a born intersex, my birth parents left me at an orphanage. 

It wasn't until I reached my junior year of high school that I met Macy's mother, Miranda. She was the first to accept me, a new girl from California. She stopped all the bullying that came my way, kissing me in front of the whole school. We dated through college, got married after graduation and two years later we had Macy. 

I let out a shuttering, calming breath as her fingers scrunched the back of my short pixie cut. I lean down so she could lower back on her feet and I burry my face in the crook of her neck. "Daddy," Macy calls faintly.

I step back from the doctor, composing myself and enter the room with my daughter. I sit on the edge of her bed, taking her hand and say quietly, not trusting my voice, "I'm here princess. How are you feeling?"

"Tired," she says quietly with half lidded eyes. She looks behind me at the doctor and says with a hint of a smile, "She's pretty, like mommy."

I give a light smile and look back to see the doctor blushing, looking away. "Can we keep her as my new mommy," she asks with her cute little smile.

"Sweetie, it doesn't work like that. Daddy can't just make someone be your new mommy," I choke quietly, fighting back the tears.

"But I miss mommy," she chokes in broken sobs. 

I try to comfort her like I'm normally able to, but she pushes me away. To my surprise the doctor who was working her stay in the hospital took her in her arms and Macy allowed her. I watched as the doctor soothed her to sleep and get held in place by Macy. 

Our eyes meet as tears roll down my cheeks. "I'm sorry," I choke quietly. 

Her face tinges a bright pink and says shyly, "I don't mind."

The more I look at her the more I can see the hidden bruises on her face, neck and arms. "Who is hitting you," I ask in a protective tone, gently caressing her face as she flinches. "Let me help you, please?"

Four words made me see red, "You work with her."

"Who," I ask in an extremely protective tone.

My partner, Reese, walks in and the doctor goes ramrod still. I'd just gotten my answer. "Hey baby, I see you've met Elliott and Macy," she says and I saw red.

I turn and grab Reese by her arm. I cuff her hands behind her back and the doctor looks at me with scared eyes. "Its okay now," I say in a soothing tone as our captain walks in. "Sir, Reese has been abusing her partner. I'm not sure why or how long, but she's right here. I don't want her questioned around Macy."

"Is this true," my captain asks softly.

She looks between Reese and my captain, fear wild in her eyes. Her eyes meet mine and she relaxes a little, nodding vigorously. Reese starts to struggle against my hold on her. "You bitch! When I get out, I'll kill you," she shouts, waking and scaring Macy. 

The captain takes her from my grasp and hands her off to a second pair of officers. I go and take both my daughter and her doctor in my arms. They both cling to me for dear life and I meet eyes with my captain. "I'll see you Monday Elliott," he says softly and I nod lightly. 

I hold Macy with one arm and use the other to stroke the doctor's hair. It didn't take long for me to get them both calmed down and asleep. A woman who looked like the medical director pokes in the room and notices the doctor calming down in my arms. "She told you," she asks quietly with concern and I nod. 

I get a closer look at the medical director and she resembles the doctor treating Macy. Tears of relief fill the older woman's eyes and comes to kiss the younger doctor's forehead. She looks at me with grateful eyes and says in a choked whisper, "I've been trying to get her to turn her in for months. Thank you."

"You're welcome, I honestly noticed the bruises hidden under the makeup. I'm good at noticing hidden abuse. I used to hide my own abuse growing up as a kid," I choke quietly, pulling Macy closer to me, but she was attached to the doctor. "She misses her mother and I don't know what to do."

"She left you," she asks curious. 

"Car accident, I almost lost both of them while I was on duty," I choke in barely a whisper. "She was the only one who accepted me and now I'm left alone again, but with a child who is constantly looking for her mother."

"Why don't you try getting some rest," she says in sympathy and I nod, closing my eyes as sleep instantly takes me under.

Jessie

I woke up in what I thought was the on call room, but to my surprise I was snuggled up with a little girl and a goddess. They both had platinum blonde hair, curly. The goddess had her in a short pixie,  curls hugging her scalp in tight curls. Her lips were luscious and pouty. She had a strong body build from what I could tell of her uniform. 

Her daughter had the same pouty lips and it confused me as I recall the little girl calling her 'Daddy?'. She said she lost her mother two years ago in a car accident. Did she call her that because of her masculine structure?

I study her more, her face perfectly sculpted with a strong jawline and plump heart shaped lips. Her tall structure was broad like a man and from what I could tell, she had the muscle to go with her body build. My eyes are drawn to her groin area and if I'm not mistaken, I see an outline of a male's genitals. A rather large one at that.

I bite my bottom lip, looking back at this gorgeous woman's face. She's extremely attractive and it's sad to hear she's single, raising this precious little girl on her own. My heart stopped when her daughter asked me to be her new mother and I could tell it bothered Elliott a little, but didn't want to show weakness in front of her daughter.

"She's quite the catch, isn't she," my mother says quietly, snapping me back to reality. "To think the little girl attached to you is part of the package deal."

"I'm not sure I want to date another cop mom, not after Reese," I choke quietly, stroking the child's hair from her face as she snuggles up closer to me.

"Mommy," she chokes in her sleep, face scrunched up in fear. She buries her face in my chest and muffles, "Don't go."

Without thinking, I wrap my arms around her, holding her close and she relaxes in my arms. Tears sting at my eyes at the memory of the baby I lost during one of Reese's beatings. Thankfully I can still get pregnant, but haven't tried again since I lost the baby six months ago. 

A gentle calloused hand caresses my face as tears draw down my cheeks. A sweep of a thump wipes the tears that managed to escape without my knowledge and meet eyes with the owner of the hand on my face. Piercing bright blue eyes stare back in mine, an understanding held in them. I let go of the sobs that were fighting to come out. The small child in my arms wakes and does her best to help calm me down and I hold her close to my chest, not wanting to let go.

"Why don't you go home, take a few days," my mother says in sympathy, knowing why I was breaking down.

"I don't want to be alone," I choke in sobs, shaking my head, looking at her.

"You can come home with me and Daddy," Macy says in a cute little voice. 

"Oh, sweetie, I couldn't..."

"Actually, I insist. Reese could make bail being her father is a judge. You'll be safe with me," Elliott says in a protective tone. "Don't worry about clothes, I put away my wife's clothes for when Macy got older."

Knowing her words are true, I nod, not fighting against her. My mother lets out a relieved breath, grateful knowing I was going to be safe tonight. "Thank you officer," my mother chokes with a relieved smile. 

Elliott nods lightly. "Its not safe for her to go home in case she makes bail. At least with me I can protect her if she finds out she's with me," she says softly, getting Macy's shoes on after signing her discharge papers from Carol. 

"I'll cover your patients Jessie," Carol says in sympathy. My mother probably asked her to while I was sleeping.

"Thanks Carol," I choke quietly. 

When we get to Elliott's house, it was beautifully decorated. There was a table of various pictures of a woman, I presume to be her late wife, near the front door. "She was beautiful," I say softly as Elliott placed her car keys on a dish on the table.

"Thank you," she chokes quietly, picking up a picture of her holding a young Macy. "She was three months pregnant when she was in the accident.

"Did Reese cause..."

"Yes, I was ten weeks," I choke in a whisper. "It was six months ago. The abuse stopped when I told her I wanted a baby. She beat me when I didn't have dinner ready when she ended her shift. I was taking a nap after a twelve hour surgery and was sleeping when she got home."

"I'm sorry to hear that," she says in sympathy. She holds her hand out to me and says softly, "Come with me. I'll show you where the clothes are if you'd like to take a shower."

I take her hand and she leads me upstairs to a room that looked more like a storage room than anything. "I put all her things in the spare room for Macy.  You're welcome to anything you'd like," she says quietly and I nod. "Her clothes are hanging in the closet. Night clothes and undergarments are in the dresser.

"The master bedroom is across the hall. You can shower in there if you'd like. I'll sleep on the couch or bunk with Macy, you can take the bed," she says softly. "I'm going to change out of my uniform and start dinner. Do you have any allergies to anything?"

"No and thank you for everything," I say quietly and she nods lightly, leaving me to look through her wife's clothes.

It felt wrong to be wearing her wife's clothes, but at least it saved me from having to go home and having that chance in running into Reese. Thankfully her wife was my size and we shared a similar taste in clothing.

I grab a pair of light blue skinny jeans with a v-neck shirt and matching bra and panties. I head across the hall and the door was ajar. Not realizing she was still in the room, I push the door open and she was standing with her back to the door.

She stood in boxers and a sports bra, muscle rippling as she moved around, dressing herself in a pair of basketball shorts and a muscle shirt. She turns to face me, clutching her chest startled by me in the doorway. I bite my lip as I feel my cheeks heat up and lower my gaze to the floor.

"Sorry, the door was open," I murmur shyly. 

"H-how long have you been standing there," she asks nervous, scared.

I could see tears in her eyes and took a step closer, caressing her face. "I know about your condition, I felt you when we hugged in the hallway. Your uniform makes you rather noticable," I say biting my lip seductively. 

I reach up, kissing her opposite cheek and she looks at me with relief. "Now you understand why Macy calls me Daddy," she chokes in barely a whisper and I nod lightly. "Please keep this between us. Only a handful of people know about me. Miranda was the first to accept me, before I met her I used to get beat up for being different. My own parents didn't want me, the lady running the orphanage molested me until I was old enough to leave..."

She breaks down from reliving what happened to her and I took her in my arms. I know my relationship with Reese was abusive, but hearing what Elliott had to live through is far worse than what I went through this last year.

"You're secret is safe with me," I choke in a soothing whisper. "You can trust my mother too, her sister is also intersex."

I feel her sigh with relief as her body relaxes in my arms. Her arms snake around my waist, drawing me closer to her with her face nuzzling in my shoulder. "Thank you," she chokes in a whisper.

Chapter two
Elliott I woke to screaming in the middle of the night. I jump off my living room couch where I was sleeping and run up to my room where Jessie was thrashing from a nightmare. I climb in the bed and pull her in my arms. She starts beating on my chest, freaking out and I speak to her in a soothing voice as she wakes up.She breaks into uncontrolled sobs and slumps against me, shaking from her nightmare. I rock her side to side and she holds onto my arms around her chest. Her sobs slowly subside and I lay us against the pillows with her head on my chest. Her breaths shook as she calmed down, holding onto me as I played with her hair.It didn't take long for her to fall back to sleep. I continue playing with her hair, thinking back to how I did this every night for Miranda to go to sleep, especially when she was pregnant with Macy. Tears fill my eyes at the thought of her and look down at the beautiful woman asleep in my arms.I could feel the brick wa

Chapter three
Elliott It's been a month since I met Jessie. The first two weeks she started off sleeping in the guest room, but in the middle of the night she'd end up joining me in my bed. It was always because of a nightmare involving Reese. I ended up just letting her sleep in the bed with me and she's not had a nightmare in the last two weeks. I'm not going to lie, it felt weird having another woman in my bed that wasn't Miranda, but it was comforting in another way. It was comforting because I was also able to sleep better these last two weeks.Everyone at work has noticed a change in me these last two weeks, but none of them question it and I'm grateful. I was given a new partner given that Reese was my partner, but is now dead. She held Jessie at gunpoint with my daughter sitting next to her.We ended up struggling for the gun she had and I was shot in the process. I managed to get the gun from her and my shot killed her instantly. Apparently I was t

Chapter four
Jessie I was in the middle of my rounds at the hospital, six weeks after Elliott asked me to be her girlfriend. I was starting to feel lightheaded and bring a hand to my forehead, using my free hand to grab for the wall next to me. My mother was walking towards me as I lost my footing and catches me before I collapse. "Jessie," she exclaims with concern. "Sweetheart, are you okay?"I look at her as everything started to spin and collapse in her arms. "Jessie," she calls out, scared for me as everything fades to black.  I woke up in a hospital bed and started to freak out as Elliott takes me in her arms. I instantly calm in her arms as she strokes my hair. "You're okay, I'm here," she says soothingly over and over again as my breaths calm down. "The last thing I remember I was doing my rounds and I was lightheaded," I choke quietly and she kisses the top of my head. "What's wrong with me?"My mother enters

Chapter five
Elliott I was sitting with Jessie and her family at her Aunt's funeral. I was dressed in a black suit and tie and she was in a black, knee length dress. Her honey brown curls tumbled down her shoulders. I left Macy in her daycare for the day. I didn't want her around this and Jessie agreed with me.Her family were eyeing us, questioning each other who I was. A toddler made her way over to me, climbing in my lap. She curls up in my lap with her head on my chest and goes to sleep. A woman across the aisle motions to the child, wondering if she was a bother and I shake my head. I look around the church and could easily spot undercover cops that I requested to be here. I was informed last night while everyone was asleep that Reese's father had an accomplice to her Aunt's murder. Reese's mother. I scan the people in the crowd and spot her, standing to the far left side.Her eyes meet with mine and a sinister smirk spreads her lips. I lean forward t

Chapter six
Jessie It's been two weeks since we learned about the pregnancy and my Aunt Alex's murder. It's my first day back to work and it's been chaos. There have been so many patients that it was literally making my head spin.I was sitting at the nurse's station, trying to get my head to stop spinning, but it was no use. Everyone was running around like crazy and it was making my head spin worse. I close my eyes, breaths shaky and lay my head down.I feel someone rub my back in comfort and look to see it was my mother. She lifts me from the chair and I waver on my feet with a hand on my forehead. She slowly guides me to a dark on call room and helps me lay down.She pulls her phone from her pocket and I hear Elliott on the other end. "How soon can you get to the hospital...No, nothing bad. It's been hectic here and Jessie is not fit to continue working...I have her laying down in an on call room. I found her with her head down at the nurse's station when C

Chapter seven
Elliott Thanksgiving is next week and as usual this time of year, crime goes up. Gary and I were grabbing coffee at a local gas station when three guys walked in shooting everyone in the convenient store. Gary and I retaliate and I took two in the chest and stomach, piercing through my vest. "Elliott," he exclaims as he takes out the last of the shooters.My breaths come in quick pants, almost hyperventilating. "Jessie, I need to see her," I say between rapid breaths, tears rolling down my cheeks."Hang in there Elliott," Gary says in a soothing whisper. "J-Jessie," I say in a gurgled breath and everything fades to black.JessieI'm waiting with my mother for Elliott to come in the emergency room. Gary just called and said she was shot while they were getting coffee. My mother was doing her best to keep me calm for the baby's sake, but until I see Elliott, I don't think I can calm down.She was being wheeled in and it felt

Chapter eight
Elliott Its Thanksgiving and this year Macy and I are joining Jessie and her family for the holidays. Jessie is making me sit out of helping with anything. She's afraid I'll overdo it after nearly taking a bullet in my heart. She said the bullet was two inches shy of my being dead.I was lounging in our big chair when Nana came out and took pity on me. She asked me to drive her to the store and told me Jessie could take it up with her. She ended up directing me to a jewelry store and I was left confused. "Nana, what are we doing here? I thought you needed something to go with dinner," I ask confused. "We're here to pick something out for you to give Jessie," she says with a smile, giving me a wink.We look around for a few minutes before I found the perfect gift. It was a necklace with a pendant of a mother caressing her pregnant stomach. I show Nana and she smiles. "She's going to love it," she says with a smile as we take it to the clerk.

Chapter nine
Jessie  Its Christmas Eve and thankfully Elliott and I have off from work. Skye adapted to living with us rather quickly. We've had a special bond since day one and I still haven't told Elliott what we talked about. It's not up to me to spill all of Skye's secrets.  She still wakes me every now and again in the middle of the night. We go down and have tea to relax her mind and talk some more. It's mostly small talk, like what she likes and doesn't like. She told me about her mother and what she misses the most about her. She told me that I often remind her of her mother and is why she seems close with me rather than Elliott.  I was sitting with Skye while Elliott and Macy went to pick up my parents and Nana. They were going to be staying the night with us in our new house. Elliott managed to find one a few days after Skye was dropped off at our door on Thanksgiving. We've been fully moved in a few days ago. There are plenty of rooms for Elliott

Chapter ten
Jessie  Elliott just left with the girls and I was in our room with our mothers while the others were sitting in the living room waiting to see the dress. The dress was beautiful, off the shoulder straps with a heart shaped neckline that showed a lot of breast.  It was a perfect fit and left plenty of room for my stomach in the upcoming weeks. Tears fill my eyes at how beautiful the dress was and how Elliott was going to react to it.  I burst into tears and our mothers took me in their arms. "You don't have to wear it..." "I love it," I choke in laughing sobs.  "Let's go show the others," my mother says with a smile.  We enter the living room and everyone looks at me in awe. "Sweetheart, you look breathtaking," my father chokes with a smile.  "If Elliott is anything like me, she is going to weep when she sees you walk down the aisle," Thomas says with a smile and kisses my cheek. "I brought the tux
