Epilogue

It's been a year since that horrific morning and afternoon.

Edward was committed to a mental institution.

I was granted a speedy divorce with no long drawn out mediations.

The simple fact was that he had kept me drugged.

He had kidnapped, raped, tortured and murdered a young innocent girl.

And to put it kindly, he had gone bat shit crazy.

The autopsy revealed the girl was Jessica Stanley, age 18 at time of death.

Which meant she was 17 when Edward found her.

When her parents were contacted, their only reaction was, "The whore got what she deserved."

They ran DNA tests on Madison to confirm her parentage before turning her over as a ward of the state.

Since my milk was still coming in, they allowed me to visit her for feedings.

During sessions with a state appointed therapist.

I had a hard time believing it when they told me she was Edward and Jessica's daughter.

Officer Hale, Jasper, became a trusted friend through the rough weeks and months that followed.

More than that actually.

We were married a month ago.

He can't have children.

It has taken several discussions and sessions with my private psychiatrist, but we have decided to apply for adoption of little Madison.

Her circumstances are not her fault.

She doesn't deserve to grow up in the system.

I will always cherish the final gift Edward 'gave' me…though I will never understand why.

~The End~

Well...if you've made it to this point...you survived!

Still have questions? Hit me with them and I will answer...if there are a ton of them, I will go ahead and post a Q&A chapter.

Time for the mushy stuff...

I was seriously paranoid about putting this up, but ya'll welcomed it with open arms and open minds. I can't thank you enough! The outpouring of reviews that made me laugh (perhaps a bit maniacally) was just unbelievable. As quickly as this went up, and as many reviews that came in, I just couldn't reply to every one individually. So...to each and every one of you that came on this journey with me...THANK YOU!
