Hi, you all! This story is set in an alternate universe, where Ana is a photographer and daughter of one of the wealthiest men in Seattle. Christian is a homicide detective in this one. This tale is about two lovers who were once ripped apart by evil forces, but were given a second chance in another lifetime...

I really hope you enjoy reading this. Cause I sure enjoyed writing it! :)

And don't forget to tell me what you think about chapter 1.

Ana woke up startled, while gasping softly, her eyes instantly scanning her surroundings. As it dawned on her that she was safely in her own bedroom, her body relaxed a bit. She then took deep breaths and let them out slowly.

Wondering what time it was, she threw a quick glance at the clock.

"It was 1:20 AM." She whispered.

Ana listened to the sounds in her apartment, but the only thing she heard was the ticking of the clock, and nothing else. It was quite dark in her bedroom, because Ana liked sleeping in the dark.

However, these last few nights, she all of a sudden felt afraid to do so.

Why? She really had no answer to that question…

And even though she was scared, Ana still turned the lights off before going to bed. These last few months, she felt very uncomfortable in her own skin, in her bed and even in her penthouse apartment.

Ana didn't know why, but she felt awfully restless. Waking up in the middle of the night, afraid of something that wasn't even there. Whenever she felt this way, Ana really didn't know what to do with herself.

She really didn't have a single clue…

Every night she woke up startled, and of course after that, Ana wasn't able to fall asleep again.

What did she do to pass the time, when wide awake in the middle of the night? As if she was programmed, Ana did what she had done these last few weeks.

She got out of bed, put her black boots on, wrapped a thick and warm coat around herself and walked out of her penthouse.

Ana walked out her bedroom door and into the huge living room, stepped into the elevator, got off at the first floor and walked out the expensive apartment building.

As she wandered through the streets of her own City, Ana aimlessly walked with no destination in mind. She just walked till she got very tired, and then went back home. If people would see her like that, they'd probably think she was a crazy or troubled young woman.

And to be honest, they would be right, because Ana was indeed troubled…

It was extremely frustrating to her not knowing why she felt so restless. Ana had everything a 27 year-old young woman would want. She had a job she loved with a passion, she lived in a penthouse apartment, and she had friends and parents who loved her, a boyfriend who adored her.

From the perspective of others her life seemed complete and so perfect.

That meant that Ana should be happy… right?!

And yet she felt the opposite of that... Ana couldn't help but feel that way.

There was just an emptiness, a void deep within her heart that she for the life of her, could not explain. Of course Ana hid these gnawing feelings from the world, because if people knew how she truly felt, they would judge her and say that she was one ungrateful, spoiled little rich girl.

That's why Ana has been keeping it all to herself.

However, this emptiness and restlessness was consuming her completely from the inside out, eating at her soul, draining all of Ana's energy…

Her boyfriend Luke was a good guy. She has been in a relationship with the man for almost two years now. However, Ana felt in her heart that she wasn't in love with him anymore.

Maybe she never had been. Maybe, Ana had been in love with the idea of him… of the idea of them as the perfect couple.

Luke and Ana, the power couple most people looked up to and admired…

Luke comes from a wealthy family, the Sawyers. He has been brought up by Old money and has known and experienced special privileges all his life. One day he will inherit all the money and wealth of his established upper-class family.

Plus, he was very handsome and loved Ana very much. (Or so he says)

From the first day that she had introduced her friends to Luke, they had been telling Ana that she was very lucky to have him.

However, Ana couldn't help how she felt about Luke now. She only felt friendship for the man. Nothing more, and nothing less.

What makes matters worse is the fact that he keeps telling Ana that he will marry her someday.

However, that is not something that she wants. For the past four months, Ana had been tossing and turning in bed, thinking of a way to break up with Luke.

But in every scenario she thought of, Luke gets hurt, making Ana feel extremely guilty. That's why she had been postponing to break up with him.

She would wake up in the morning, and tell herself this." I will do it, I will break up with him today during lunch… or dinner."

But the moment Luke hugged Ana tightly and told her that he loved her, those heart wrenching words refuse to leave her lips…

And so here Ana was again, after midnight, still wandering the streets of her City without a destination in mind. Just walking like some nut.

But then it happened! It happened so fast that she froze at the spot, unable to move…

Ana was going to cross the street, because the light had jumped to green. She was in deep thought and didn't see a huge truck driving through a red light! It was coming right at her, but Ana was too shocked to move. At that very moment, she saw flashes and images before her very eyes…

In those moments Ana had a vision, so confusing:

She stood in front of a huge, old building… it wasn't just a normal building. It seemed more like a castle?! It looked like it was built a long time ago. Ana opened the wide front door that was made of heavy wood. While standing on the threshold of the door, she saw her reflection in a mirror. Ana was wearing a long, blue gown and her hair was up, held by a golden hairpin. Without hesitation, she walked inside the castle and gasped at how beautiful the living room was. There was a fire place, and nice furniture, the interior very old fashioned. The walls were painted white, while the curtains were red and hung all the way down to the floor. It was a gorgeous living room with red, white and black colors. There were a lot of windows, making the sunlight lit up the room, giving it a special effect.

Ana stood still for a couple of moments, enjoying the view, and then walked further to see the rest. There were no rooms on the first floor, so she assumed that they were on the second floor. But instead of walking up the stairs, she walked through a hall that ended up in the kitchen. It was also huge and old fashioned. The dining room had a wooden table with 20 chairs, while the walls were painted red.

She walked further and opened the back door. The sun was shining; the warmth of said sun on her skin making Ana feel wonderful. As her eyes scanned her surroundings, they landed on the garden. She gasped softly, her hand over her mouth, truly amazed by how beautiful the garden was. There were a lot of trees and the garden had a lot of flowers. All kinds of colors, shapes and sizes. She felt like she was in a fairy tale, almost feeling like a little girl again. Birds were singing and the wind was making the leaves of the trees move from left to right. Ana was smiling widely, closed her eyes and inhaled the fresh air. It was nothing like the air in Seattle though… it was so much better and fresher.

But then she was startled by a noise behind her, so Ana turned around. As her eyes landed on this stranger, her breath caught in her throat. She was looking into the most beautiful gray eyes she had ever seen in her life… He looked so familiar, but she didn't think she had ever met him before. The handsome stranger walked towards Ana, a smile gracing his face, making her heart thump wildly against her chest. When he finally stood in front of her, Ana heard him say.

"Hey, we've been waiting for you, sweetie… are you OK?"

She was too shocked to answer and nodded. He smiled and whispered." You mean the world to me…"

Then he cupped her face lightly and looked deep into her eyes. His fingers were so warm on her skin, making Ana sigh happily. But after a few heavenly moments, he gently pulled away from her.

A beautiful little boy ran into his arms and said. "Daddy, daddy. I found a frog in the pond!"

The small boy then turned his face to look at Ana and greeted her with a heart melting smile on his handsome face.

"Do you wanna touch the frog, mama?" the gorgeous little boy asked.

** End of vision**

But suddenly Ana wasn't there anymore... She was lying on the cold, hard foot pavement. In those moments when she was seeing those wonderful images, Ana felt two large, rough hands grab her by the shoulders and pulled her not so gently to the sidewalk! Instead of thanking this person for saving her life, she wanted to curse at him or her for disturbing her precious moment. Ana huffed loudly, got swiftly on her feet, planning to scold who ever saved her life.

But when she looked up at him, her eyes locking onto his, Ana's mouth almost dropped to the ground, gasping softly.

She, Anastasia Steele, was gazing into the most beautiful gray eyes she had ever seen in her life...

"Miss, are you alright? I'm so sorry… did I hurt you?" she heard the stranger say, while Ana kept staring up at him.

'What the hell is going on here?!' was what bounced inside her skull, while Ana questioned her own sanity.
