what a life (Naturals One shots)

Day 21

Veronica groaned as she opened her eyes, her head throbbed, she could feel dry blood against her temple where Redding had hit her.
Redding
Her eyes widened as realization swept in, she was stuck on a property, chained in the shack. She cursed at herself for not getting back up before wandering onto the property. The shack door opened and Veronica put on her agent face, expecting the cold man to step in. Instead a young boy entered, his eyes wide with fear.
"Hi," Veronica dropped her act as he shuffled to the side.
"What's your name?" Her heart hurt for him, she couldn't imagine what he had gone through so far knowing how awful his dad was.
"Dean," he whispered. Veronica watched as he looked down at his feet. His face was still babyish, yet she knew deep down he was no longer a kid at heart, not with what had been happening.
"I'm with the FBI, we are gonna get you out of here," she said, her maternal instincts taking over. Her and Tanner had talked about kids several times, they had always wanted to start a family.
"He won't allow them to get you alive," his eyes widened at the statement. Veronica looked into his eyes and the worst idea came into her head. Maybe it could work, but it would hurt him more. She shook her head, she couldn't think that way, anything to get out of a situation an agent must do.
"I have an idea."

Any other ideas are welcomed
