I walk into my building like a king. Most morning I storm thru the lobby, unseeing, uncaring, unfeeling. Today, I hold the hand of the most wonderful woman in my life, the world. She smiles at me, making me believe today is already golden. The elevator ride to the fifteen floor is short. As she leads me to her desk outside Wickers office. Her desk is a collection of toys, Knick-knacks and assort distractions.
She smirks at me, holding up a little Bart Simpson Pez dispenser. "Stick your tongue out" she teases me. I do and she drops a Pez on my tongue, very sour, tart. She giggles at the faces I'm making. I put her close to pass the candy to her. She sucks my tongue and gives it back, breaking the kiss. "What am I do with you. Mr. Grey"
"SHE'S MINE YOU CAN'T HAVE HER!" screams Wickers. I turn to beat the crap out him, how dare he challenges me in my own company, for my girl.
Anna puts a hand on each of us separating us. "Christian!" she turns to Wickers "John I'm with Christian now, boyfriend-girlfriend, you understand?"
"You can't leave me, you're the first PA. to like me. understand me." he descents into mumbling. Anna strokes his face. I want to see green, but something stops me. It's like she talking to a little boy despite him being middle aged.
"John. I'm still your PA. ok. That all I am." Anna says
"You're my friend?" he begs lost, I can feel his pain. His fears of being alone. They mirror my own hidden angsts and terrors
"Yes, I'm your friend. Now did you say Hi to Mary?" she asks all school marm. He nods, I see a spark in his eyes with the mention of Mary. The paralegal down the hall. "John, you're a good man. An Anna is a great PA. We won't leave you hanging, ok. I have a meeting, see you at lunch. Latter's babe." I kiss her an head to my floor, my problems and my very sexy lunch date.

Roz dance into my office throwing flower petals in the air. I laugh at her antics. "What?"
"Love is in the air. The video of you singing Saturday at the gala has hit eight million on u-tube, the kiss is tracking at five million. And Gwen texted me that T-shirts of you two kissing are already hitting the tourist traps at Pikes." She flops in the chair. Throwing the rest of the petals at me.
"I thought Barney was minimizing the damage," I say amused
"He did, that with the damage control. You could have got twenty to thirty million hits otherwise. I was surprised to see you this morning, left Juliet alone at home?" she teases me.
"No, she down on 15 working." I slam Roz. Watching her brain fuzee and whirl.
"She works here? How is that going to work?" I laugh hard at her quiz
"Yes, she works here, you demanded Friday I give her a bonus, and company car. I believe you said quote "she a miracle worker, we can't let her get poached from us" end quote" I tease her back
"Anna? Your Juliet is Anna! You pig! Letting me rave all about your girlfriend last week. I'm going get you Grey, really get you"
"Yes, but she wasn't my girlfriend last week. She's the girl that saved me in Portland, the one from WSU graduation, my Angel. We just reconnect at the Gala. Strangely everyone has for the last month been trying to get us together, even you tried last week." I laugh while trying to talk. God, it funny.
"Yea, see if you listen to me you could have escorted her to the Gala. Danced her into you bed. Waltz her around your ivory tower all week." She smirks at me.
"Remind me to tell Gwen your crushing on my girl, and trying to get me to stay home so you can rule GEH without my interference." We both laugh and get down to business.

Noon
I walk out of my office to greet my Anna for lunch. Andrea looks like she chugged ghost pepper again, Elliot's prank her last year after costing him a baseball game. Who knew having the non-playing secretaries showing up in miniskirts and midriff skin tight see thru tank tops could unhinge Barney and the geeks of the computer department team to lose to clerical team. I have to smile.
"Andrea?" I ask
"Yes, Mr. Grey. Your lunch should be here soon." She says cut and sharp.
The elevator opens an Anna, John and a nice middle-aged woman, john age, exit. I wonder what's going on. "Christian, this is Mary from Legal. I thought we'd double date the lunch?" she asks like I have a choice. I smile and nod. The elevator opens and Andrea PA has our lunch. Anna grabs it, and leads them into my office. This is going to be interesting.
"Andrea?" I ask as she looks sick.
"your brother tried to get me to hire her three weeks ago, said I was missing a golden opportunity. I hate when Elliot is right about anything. Barney is forcing me to go to dinner tonight at the starship. I hate wearing Starfleet issue." She pouts, I see most is fake. She is so crushing on Barney.
"Well, usually disbelieving Elliot is correct, this time we're both fools. Go enjoy your lunch. At least you're not double dating." I smirk a walk into my office for lunch.

I sip my whiskey watching the latest video of Grey. The girl is familiar, yes, the mouse that got away. Now grey has her, my property. He's always taking my property, birth right. I will have to find some way to damage him, reclaim my little mouse. I pet my slave, she shirks at my touch, she'll learn. Yes, she will. Liz bring me a fresh drink, holding it proper. "Observe slave, how well Liz does it. teach her Liz. Her or you" that always motivates the bitch, she beats the little novice. Soon she'll be perfect. So, perfect. Another month and I can sell her. She's just finished her third week as my new PA.

Grey Manor
I sip my whiskey, watching the video Mia recorded. How happy and in love Christian looks. The background on Anastasia is disturbing and upsetting. The girl is capable of some violence. A temper to rival Christian. Grace is flip flopping on the girl. I think she feels guilty over Eliana. Overcompensating over the girl, I think with a little time she'll calm down. I look at the liqueur cabinet Grandpa T had made for me three year-ago. Ray Steele does excellent work. I remember meeting him to do Grandma T rocking chair fix. A solid guy, the mother on the other hand is wild, selfish and will need watching.
I need to go back upstairs to the bed room where I left Grace stewing. The one thing about everyone gone from the house is playtime is longer, better and so much more enjoyable. I unlock the bedroom door to see Gracie spread-eagle on the bed, blindfolded and so edible. She needs the release from responsibility, decisions. We like the kink, not the pain. I disrobe and slide next to her, just not touching. Dragging a peacock feather along her body. She begs and pleas as I touch the Eros zones of her well-toned body. Even after all these years she so dam hot and desirable. I let my tongue feast on her for a while. Letting my experience tame her needs. I leave the bed, turning on some music. Soft and building, mounting her rocking her body with strokes and twists, making her rise to meet me. building to a climax and racing down the afterglow. Again, and again. Till she is just a withering mass of female lust and love. Passion overflowing as I reach my peak of endurance and stamina. Laying her in my arms, after the sex holding her like we did younger, before the kids.
"Gracie, you feel better?" I tease. She just purrs at me. happy and content. I start to drift off to sleep. "Cary, I want to take Anna to lunch this Thursday. I need to find out what she wants from Christian."
Waking me up, I stare at her head, stroking her hair. "Gracie, as long as you're looking for faults, the answer is no. If you what to know the girl, by all-means talk, lunch, what every. But don't go looking for enemies, you'll only make them, not find them."
