A/N: I got a few messages last night so I want to clear up a few things before we get to the dinner & confessions after party.

Some of you have guess correctly that there is someone working on the inside of Christian's security. But who will it be? I don't even know yet. Did Elena have something to do with the cameras? She may have, but she's not the leader of this. Is the PedoBitch being watch already? Yes but not for what you think. Was Ana raped by the high school boys? NO, they did sexually assault her, but Christian is about to find out her virginity is very much intact. How does Ana know Elena? Ana doesn't know Elena, she knows of Elena's reputation. There is a difference there and you'll find out how in the coming chapters, it's a doozy. Does Kate have security clearance, she seems to know a lot? No Kate does not. She however was Ana's roommate at the time and her local emergency contact. When she went missing she was given basic details. She is only allowed to know she was kidnapped and rescued. She doesn't know why she was kidnapped or what Ana was doing in Cairo either. She just knows she was doing work for the government. Case closed.

I'm hoping this chapter turns out very lemony and not so drama filled. We should be headed to the Gala after this. When the Pinterest board is updated this evening, there will be a Spotify playlist pinned. I'm listening to it on repeat today. Thank you to my husband, he graciously volunteered to help with that and today's inspiration.

One final note. Yes my Ana is a virgin, but she's not pure and that has nothing to do with Texas. She's only still a virgin because she wanted to have sex with someone she wanted to still be in a room with when it was over. The only other guy who met that requirement left her high, wet and horny when she said virgin. That's another story for a later chapter. She told Christian she's had an orgasm and she's been very vocal about what she wants. Don't expect her to start being shy now.

Enjoy Ladies. Remember I don't own these characters. The story however is totally my brain child.

Chapter 8

Friday, April 21st 9:30pm

Christian's POV

This woman has invaded my every thought today. I was doing just fine till Andrea brought me her note at 10 this morning. I've heard that song but it took me about 5 minutes and a google search to find it. After that I listened to it on repeat for an hour while reading some paperwork before my next set of meetings.

Christian~

Thank you for your lovely note and flower this morning. They were second best only to waking up to you yourself I think. I hope to rectify that tomorrow morning. I heard this on the radio while getting ready for work this morning and now I will think of you all day because of it.

"…You know I want your love,

Your love was handmade for somebody like me

Come on now, follow my lead

I may be crazy, don't mind me

Say, boy, let's not talk too much

Grab on my waist & put that body on me

Come on now, follow my lead

Come, come on now, follow my lead.

I'm in love with the shape of you

We push & pull like a magnet do

Although my heart is falling too

I'm in love with your body

And last night you were in my room

And now my bed sheets smell like you

Every day discovering something brand new

I'm in love with your body."

My bed sheets and my shower smell like you. I look forward to dinner & confessions tonight so I can smell like you too.

Thinking of you and dreaming of tonight,

Anastasia

I spent most of the afternoon in a constant state of arousal thinking of the things I was planning to do to her body tonight. I'm still not sure how to go about this tonight with my touch issues. So far she's only touched the one spot on my chest over my shirt. But every fantasy I had today involved her hands roaming over my back and chest as I took her every way I could in my bed, somewhere no one else has ever been.

When she told me she was a virgin, I was shocked to say the least. A woman as gorgeous as her, it didn't seem possible. She's giving me this gift and I have to show her how precious it is and how much I cherish her. So here we stand beside my bed now staring into each other's eyes. I'm cupping the side of her face with my right hand and she's leaning into it. I slowly bring my left hand up to her other cheek, trailing it down her neck, never taking my eyes off of her crystal clear blue ones. I brush the side of her breast and she moans slightly as I continue. I reach my goal, the tie on her wrap dress. I pull the end and her dress falls open.

Damn. "Anastasia you are so beautiful." I use both hands to rub her from her neck down her breast cupping her through the padding of her bustier. It's black, all silk with the exception on the lace panel. I kneel in front her running my hands down to her thighs. Encased in sheer black silk thigh highs attached to the bustier with garter straps. The thinnest of lace covering her sweet pussy. I lean in and savor her scent placing a small kiss over the lace. The moan that escapes her lips has me lifting my eyes to her. Her head is thrown back and she's let the dress fall off and pool around her in the floor. "You are the most beautiful I've ever seen Anastasia."

Slowly I undo the garters and roll the silk down her legs, placing a kiss on each toe after it's free from its confines. When her legs are bare I stand. "Turn around Anastasia." It's a command not a request. She does so instantly. I slowly undo each hook to free her breasts from the confines of the silk and lace. Tossing it onto the floor, I close the space between us and grab each breast. With her back to my chest, I trail kisses along her neck my breath a husky whisper in her ear. "Do you know what that note you left did to me all afternoon Anastasia?"

"No Christian, but I hope it had the same effect as me wearing your jacket all day." I tug on her right nipple. Her quick gasp urges me on. I leave my right hand on her breast squeezing a little harsher now, while my left trails over her stomach.

"That was your plan wasn't it. You wanted me thinking of tonight and all the things I could do to you. You've wanted this all day. Have you been wet thinking of me?" I dip my hand into the silk lace of her panties. "This is what you've wanted. You're soaking wet Ana and I've barely touched you. Do you see what I can do to your body?" I graze two fingers over her clit eliciting a quiet moan from her again, "Christian."

"That's right baby, just feel it. Feel what I can do." I slip first one finger into her dripping channel. "You're so tight Ana, I'm going to take my time and cherish you. Bring you to such a state of arousal that you won't be able to think of the pain when I rip through your virginity. I'm going to take all night making love to you." I add a second finger as she leans her head back on my shoulder. She brings both hands to my head and runs them through my hair grabbing and tugging as I work my fingers in and out of her.

"Please Christian, I'm not one to beg. Please don't make me wait." Yes my girl isn't afraid to ask for what she wants. "Please just a little faster. I want to come Christian. I want to come with your fingers inside me so that you can feel what you've been doing to me all week." Her voice is so husky it's almost unrecognizable. I work her a little faster just like she asked for, using my thumb to stroke her clit. In moments she right there on the edge. She's grabbing my hair a little more forcefully and it's the hottest thing ever. I want to watch her face as she falls over the edge. "Yes, Yes, OH right there don't stop baby. Please don't stop now."

"I'm not stopping Anastasia. I want you to come. I want you to come all over my fingers right now. Come for me baby. Show me how beautiful you are." With that her orgasm rips through her, my name on her lips. Her eyes closed tight. Leaving a kiss on her neck I step back.

Ana's POV

He turned a stereo on in here somewhere when we walked in. I can feel the beat as he stretches me with his fingers. It's so deliciously tight. My muscles are gripping his fingers as he pulls away and I'm left bereft. He takes a step back and turns me around. I grab his hair and bring his head down to me and kiss him deeply. When he pulls away I watch as he slowly sucks my juices from his fingers. "Delicious Anastasia. But I'm still wearing too many cloths now."

I reach for the button on his crisp blue shirt. I see him stiffen, "I'm only unbuttoning the shirt. If it's too much Christian, you tell me." He simply nods. One by one I release each button. When I reach his waist band, I undo his buckle and pull his belt through each loop before tossing it on the ground right next to me. I release the button to his jeans and slowly slide the zip down, never taking my eyes off of his. The dark grey storms swirling give away how turned on he is. I slip my hand into the jeans and grip him through the fabric of his underwear. His hiss is sharp when I squeeze. Shit he's large and now I'm scared he won't fit. He must see the question in my eyes because he just smirks, "You'll stretch Anastasia."

I lift my hands to his shoulders at the open edges of his shirt. "May I?" He simply nods again and I push the shirt off and let it fall to the floor. My hands hover over his chest as I inspect every inch of him. I see the small scars. Those are the ones he told me about, the cigarette burns. I want to weep for the child he was, but need to comfort the man that he is now. Not taking my eyes off his I lean forward and place a chaste kiss on one scar and followed by the next. He's screwed his eyes shut and thrown his head back and thrust his hands in my hair. When I move to his nipple and suck gently the growl he releases reverberates through the room.

"Enough" He lifts my head and slams his lips to my in a punishing and demanding kiss. He grabs both of my ass cheeks and lifts me. I wrap my legs around him as he takes the few steps needed and turns me and lays me on the bed. "In the middle of the bed Anastasia." I scoot back and turn so that I'm lying in the middle of his bed. I push start to push the dove gray covers down as Christian pushes his pants down along with his tight boxer briefs. When his manhood is release my eyes must have bugged out of my head. He's huge, so long and thick and I want to taste him. I want to feel the weight of his impressive cock in my mouth. I wonder if he's salty like Kate says most guys are. He rips the blankets the rest of the way from me.

Climbing on the bed he starts at my feet placing slow and wet kisses as he heads toward my core, where I want his mouth the most. Inhaling my scent, his voice is low and sends a jolt through me straight to my core. "No has ever touch me Anastasia, all of my partners have always had their hands tied." He pauses to swipe his tongue over my panties. "You taste fucking amazing, but I need more, spread your legs Anastasia." He's commanding and it turns me on even more. I feel the sharp snap of my panties ripping and next thing I know his whole mouth is on me nipping and sucking every inch of my core.

My breath is coming in short pants now, I lace the fingers of my left hand in his hair, my right hand gripping the fabric of the pillow my head is resting on. "Yes Christian. Right there more please. Oh baby you're so good at that. Ffffuuuucccckkkkk!" He's thrusting his tongue stiffly into me with increasing speed and pressure. The thumb of his right hand working my clit. I'm chasing my second orgasm in minutes. It's never been this way before when I've made myself come. "More Christian, I need more. I want to come again. Make me come baby. You're so perfect." He moves his tongue to my clit, and I groan at the emptiness, but he's suddenly thrusting two fingers into me as his tongue strokes my clit over and over.

"Anastasia you taste so fucking sweet. I can't get enough." He adds a third finger and begins to suck my clit and I'm racing to the cliff's edge. "Come for me baby." With a gentle nip to my clit I'm screaming his name again. He lifts his head and moves his cock into position. He keeps rubbing my clit after he removes his fingers, prolonging my orgasm. "I'm on the pill Christian. I want you skin to skin. I'm clean"

"I am too. I'm so sorry baby," his voice a whisper in my ear as he thrust into me and past the barrier of my virginity. I scream out at the pain as I grip his shoulders. He whispers reassurances to me, placing soft kisses all over my face and neck while he waits for me to adjust to him. He fills me so magnificently. Slowly the pain fades to the pressure of pleasure.

"I need to Move Anastasia, I'm not going to last much longer." His voice is course, I just simply nod. He starts to withdraw slowly before thrusting back in. He lifts a little off me resting on his right forearm as his left hand grips my thigh lifting my leg over his hips. He's thrusting even deeper now, kissing me deeply. He lowers his head to take my left nipple in his mouth. His thrust come quicker and I've got a death grip on his hair.

Christian's POV

This woman is perfect. She fits so snugly around me, it was like her pussy was made for me. "Open your eyes Anastasia, don't come yet." Her eyes snap open and lock with mine as I take her nipple in my mouth once again. Her skin taste sweet like vanilla. I slow my strokes a bit. I raise back over her, "wrap both your legs around me." She nods her head and does as I say. I push the hair out of her face and kiss her forehead. I begin to pick up the pace with each thrust. She's gripping my shoulders. I know she's trying to respect my issue, but I crave her touch on me now. "Touch my back Anastasia. Please I need to feel you." She complies immediately and I start to pound into her.

"Yes, Oh Yes. Oh Fuck, Christian baby that's so good." She's gripping me tightly with her walls. I can feel her orgasm beginning and I move even faster. I'm pounding like there is no tomorrow when she starts screaming my name. Her pussy grips me like a vice and I give two final thrusts. She rakes her nails down my back grabbing my ass and it prolongs my orgasm almost painfully. "Oh shit, Anastasia, oh baby." I still as the last of my orgasm spills into her.

When I collapse on top of her, she's rubbing my back with one hand the other stroking through my hair. I roll to the side, taking her with me refusing to break the connection.

"That was amazing Christian. Thank you." The truth in her words evident, grip my heart. With one arm still wrapped around her, I use my other hand to move the hair from her face and stroke her cheek with my thumb rubbing back and forth. "I should be thanking you Anastasia. That was the most incredible experience of my life. What you gave me. I can only strive to never let you down. I just need you to be patient with me." I place a soft kiss to her lips.

She threads her hands into my hair once again and deepens the kiss, exploring my mouth with her soft tongue. She starts to gently rock against me. I grip her waist and while I'm still inside her, I flip us so I'm lying on my back. She moves to kiss along my jaw and makes her way to my ear. "You're still rock hard inside of me." She continues rocking on my cock as I hear Justin Timberlake start to sing about the end of time. Yes I could stay inside of her until the end of time. I start to thrust up into her. She rises and flips her hair back, arching her body as she places both hands on my chest as we move together.

"Yes baby. Oh god you feel so good inside me. I didn't know it could be this good. Fuck me Christian. Don't hold back." I grip her hips and hold her still so that I can control my thrusts. This is going to be fast. "Yes oh yes just like that. Fuck me baby."

I release her waist so that she can bounce on me while I grab her breasts in each hand. "That's it Anastasia, take what you need baby. I'm yours Snow White." I raise up and wrap my arms around her and kiss her neck as she continues to grind on my dick. "You are mine Anastasia. Do you hear me? Tell me that you understand. Tell me that your mine." My voice laced with desperation, chasing my second orgasm with her.

She's tugging my hair when she answers, her eyes locked on mine, her movements a little more forceful. "Yes Christian, I'm yours. You're my knight and I'm your princess." She places her hand over my heart as she rest her forehead against mine. She slows just a little as she continues rocking and grinding on me. "I could never be anyone else's. I'm yours Christian. I'm yours." I don't understand, she's slowed down but still she pulls the orgasm out of me before I even knew it was coming.

"Anastasia!" Her name a shout as she grips me within her channel and screams her orgasm too. "Christian"

Saturday, April 22nd, 7:30 am

Ana's POV

I'm awake with the sun streaming through Christian's windows. We made love last night twice before we fell asleep and again in the middle of the night. I had woken to him massaging my breasts and kissing my back. When he knew I was awake he lifted my leg over his hip and took me from behind. If was slow and lazy and no less amazing than the other times. I feel a soreness between my legs that bring a wide smile to my lips. I gently move out from under Christian's arms and slip into the bathroom. After relieving myself and washing my hands, I slip back into the bedroom and grab his shirt from last night. Bringing it to my nose I smell his unique scent. It's a deep richness that reminds me of old cigar smoke and chocolate with a hint of his musk. I slip the shirt on over myself only buttoning the middle two buttons before I head to the kitchen.

I walk around finding the makings for waffles after finding a waffle iron in a cabinet. I set about making the batter while I have bacon in the broiler. Once I'm done with the batter I put the batter in the waffle iron and then start on a fruit salad. I've found cantaloupe, pineapple, strawberries, and my favorite gala apples. I've got the fourth waffle going, the bacon resting atop the oven, and am peeling the last apple when I see Christian walking toward me. He stops to give me a kiss on the cheek and to say good morning before moving to the fridge to grab some orange juice.

"Anything I can do?" He ask as he grabs the glasses from the cabinet next to the fridge.

"Yes you can set some plates out and grab us some silverware." He goes to set two place mats on the bar and set the dishes out for us. I serve our food up and sit beside him. He's in nothing but a pair of low slung sweat pants that hang off his hips showing off that v that leads straight to his cock. He catches me looking at him biting my lip.

"Anastasia, I've told you I want to bite that lip." He starts to cut into his food and eat.

"Well I know how you are about food. So eat and then I'll let you bite it for me." With a wink I go to eat my own food. As soon as we're done I hop out of the chair and go to put the dishes in the dishwasher.

"Leave those. Gail will get them when she returns. Come, I want to take a bath with you and then I'm taking you out for a few hours before the stylist from Neiman's shows up to get you ready for the Gala."

"You're not planning to dress me up like a hooker are you?" I'm only teasing him but the serious look on his face gives me pause. He pushes me against the wall in the hallway as he responds. "No Anastasia, this body belongs to me and I don't want anyone else thinking they can have what's mine. Your mine remember." He's brushing his knuckles while he grinds himself into the valley between my legs.

"Yes I'm yours. But you're mine also. I'm probably going to need to leave my gun here so I'm not tempted to use it on some skank trying to steal you away."

"Can't be done Anastasia. There's no one else." He places a chaste kiss on my lips before pushing off me and the wall. Holding his hand out to me, he beckons me to follow him to the bath in his en suite.

He sets up the tub to fill with a vanilla oil as he reaches over to unbutton his shirt. "I like seeing you in my clothes. However I didn't get the chance to wake up to you this morning like you said I could."

"Yes. Well I woke up in your arms and then my stomach grumbled. I needed to make sure we were replenished from last night." I respond as he pushes the shirt off my shoulders. He guides me into the tub before pushing his sweats off and climbing in behind me. We spend almost the next hour in the hot water washing each other and just stroking the other's bodies. He says I'm to sore to take me again. However he promises me a restless night once again. Once we get out and dry off he helps me to dry my hair and then instructs me to dress before we head out.

Christian's POV

We spent a wonderful afternoon walking around Seattle. We ate lunch at a quiet little bistro near the Pike Market and then walked around looking at each stall and booth. Anastasia found a set of earrings at one stall and the aquamarine was a perfect match to her blue eyes. I insisted on buying them. They will go perfectly with her dress tonight. I'll have to instruct Ms. Acton to make sure her hair will show them off.

We've been back at the penthouse for a half hour. She insisted on taking a quick shower before the stylist, Ms. Acton, and her team get here to prep her. I'm meeting with Taylor in my office and we are going over the plan for tonight. He's brought in several extra members of our team for tonight. With all the extra info Ana has managed to dig up, I agree with the increased presence. Thankfully he brought in a female to shadow Anastasia tonight. I won't have to worry about her even when she wonders off to the restroom. Prescott is a tough looking woman, a good foot taller than Anastasia is. Her cropped hair alludes to her former military background. We'll also have Barnett, a senior member of the team who has been with us almost as long as Taylor, and the youngest member of our team, Johnson. He's only a few years younger than I am. This is in addition to Taylor, Sawyer, Ryan, and Reynolds. Everyone will be on alert tonight and Taylor has informed me that several will be carrying. I wonder if Ana will be carrying her gun as well. Although I don't know how she would hide a gun under the dress I've selected for her.

After an hour with these men and woman, I excuse myself to one of the guest bedrooms to shower and change into my tux.

Ana's POV

Oh my god I am in heaven. The stylist Christian brought in had the most amazing team. My make-up is light, just some mascara and eye liner to highlight the shape of my eyes. A nude lipstick that I was told was absolutely smudge proof. I still asked to keep the tube just in case. My hair is styled in sleek 1940s waves and tucked behind my left year. I'm wearing the aquamarine and crystal drop earring Christian refused to leave the market without. He was right though, they are perfect for this dress. The only thing I'm wearing under the dress is a white garter belt and inner thigh holster for the Punisher.

The dress itself is a Naeem Khan sleeveless beaded cowl-back gown. It has a nude underlay and the top is covered in ice blue beads. It gives the illusion that I may be naked underneath. I'm wearing embellished Badgley Mischka heels in a matching blue. I've never felt more beautiful in my life. I give myself a once over in the mirror in Christian's closet before I grab the Edela nude patent leather envelope clutch that can only hold my cell and the lipstick.

When I enter the great room I hear the soft strains of Michael Buble's 'Everything' wafting through the surround sound. Christian is leaning up again his piano with his hands in his pocket. He's in a sleek Armani tuxedo with the top button if his shirt undone and his bow tie undone hanging around his neck. I lip my lips as I walk to him. He straightens as I reach him and wraps an arm around him pulling me to him.

"You are a vision Anastasia. I'm going to have a hard time keeping the men away from you tonight." He wraps an arm around me, "Dance with me please?" He takes my hand and in his and I grip his shoulder with the other. We glide effortlessly across his marble floor. All the years of practice with daddy before each of his military balls are paying off.

When the song ends he bows to me and kisses my hand. "Thank you for the dance Snow White. Come let me show you something before we leave." He leads me to the bar where there is a box resting. "Once I saw the dress Ms. Acton had chosen for you, I knew this was the one for you. Tonight's Gala is a masquerade theme."

He removes the lid and inside are two beautiful masks nestled in dark gray silk. His is a matte black half face mask similar to the mask worn by the phantom of the opera. It's the silver mask with the Pale blue trim and details that is simply breathe taking. Ice blue feathers rise from the top with a simple broach with a blue stone in the center securing them in place. "It's lovely Christian. Thank you for tonight."

"No thank you Anastasia. Come we'll put the masks on in the limo." I take his hand and follow him to the elevator that will take us the limo and the gala. I'm sure someone has grabbed the box for us, but all I'm thinking about on this ride down is how much I want to kiss him. "I feel it to Anastasia, but I don't want to ruin your hair or make up. We'll make up for it when we return." He kisses my head as the doors open to the underground garage.

I feel like Cinderella headed to the ball, except I've already got the prince.

A/N: There won't be another chapter till Monday. That's when we'll start the Gala. Expect the Gala to cover about two chapters. For the most part it will be drama free, Ana will be meeting the Grey family and few other key people will show up. Thanks again for all the love. Please continue leaving reviews. I love reading them.
