"They say love heals all wounds. This must not be love. It hurts me more than it hurts him"
Leslie Shay. Medic for Firehouse 51, Chicago, Illinois. Victim.
Kelly Severide. Lieutenant for Firehouse 51, Chicago, Illinois. Abuser.
Leslie Shay is a young, successful medic in the rough city of Chicago. She has dealt with emotional blow after emotional blow behind closed ambulance doors. Behind the door of her apartment on the other hand, is a different story. Physical injuries mean nothing to Leslie, unless they are from him, her boyfriend, Kelly Severide. One day, Kelly pushes Leslie past her limit, and she breaks. Her job is affected in a way no one expects: She becomes rebellious. Impulsive. Reckless. The exact opposite of the woman that her friends and partners know. Three days later, disaster strikes. While on the scene of a motor vehicle accident, Leslie disobeys a direct order from the battalion chief, Wallace Boden. Leslie's actions have near fatal consequences: broken ribs and hospitalization. After Leslie is released, the abuse from Kelly worsens, all up until the day she discovers she is pregnant. For fear of her unborn child's life, and in a drunken haze, she leaves Kelly and wanders the streets of Chicago, where she encounters a girl with raven hair. Will this strange encounter save Leslie's life? Or will things refuse to go as planned?
