What if Ana had suffered a miscarriage at the hands of Jack Hyde? Here's the future… without the kiddies (at least for a little while!) A story with Kinky Fuckery thrown in for fun.
Of course as you know I do not own I am just merely borrowing the characters to use and abuse as I please!
Thank you TO ALL OF YOU for your reviews, faves and alerts. As always your continued support is my inspiration.
Ok a small jump in time only because I'm no good at writing the anxious sitting and waiting bit!
"Why hasn't he woken up?" I ask looking over the still body of my husband.
"His body's been through trauma Mrs Grey, he'll wake when he's good and ready." Doctor Blythe replies and I nod gingerly.
"Ana?" Grace says as she enters the room, her eyes are blood shot and her nose is red.
"Yes?" I ask.
"Will you please let them check you over? You need stitches and I think your wrist might be broken." She says softly.
I look down at my left arm and see it's swollen and black. It throbs but I haven't been able to leave Christian since he was wheeled into his room.
"I don't want to leave him. What if he wakes up?" I ask nervously.
"Carrick will be here, I'll stay with you." Grace says softly. "Christian won't be happy if you don't get yourself seen too."
The one thing she could say to get me out of the chair was that. Christian wouldn't be happy. I sigh and lean over his head so I can kiss him before allowing Grace to lead me out of his room. Carrick gives me a weak smile as he passes and I know he's going to take my seat while Grace makes sure everything is ok with me.
"I had my eyes closed." I say weakly. "We were just driving then… the crash."
"It's ok Ana."
"It's not ok!" I snap. "Christian could have died! He could still die! His brain is swollen, his leg is broken in three places…"
"Shh Ana." Grace coos. "Come on you need to keep calm sweetie, it won't do you any good to be worked up."
It turned out that I needed stiches on my forehead and had a broken wrist which required a cast. The abrasion in the back of my head was just a scalp wound which was cleaned and left alone.
On the way back to Christian's room we saw police officers hanging around outside.
"Excuse me can I help you?" I ask nervously.
"Mrs Grey?" One asks.
"The one in the car accident or the one that wasn't?" Grace asked hurriedly.
"Uh…"
"We're both Mrs Grey." Grace explains while I stand completely stoic.
"Oh well Mrs …. Ana Grey?" He reads my name from his notebook.
"That's me." I say softly. "Uh Grace do you want to go to Christian? I can handle this, send Taylor to me if he's still around."
"Ok." Grace says before kissing my head. "We'll be with Christian when you're done."
I watch Grace walk into Christian's room before sitting down in one of the waiting room chairs.
"So what can I do for you?" I ask.
"Mrs Grey, I am Sergeant Smith this is my partner Detective Cole."
"Nice to meet you." I say. "Under the circumstances." I add feeling foolish.
"It's ok. We just have a few questions for you."
"Why? It was an accident, they took Christian's blood and he wasn't drinking, the traffic cameras could tell you if he ran a red light which I can assure you he didn't…" The Sergeant's face makes me shut up at once, he looks like he has something very pressing to tell me.
"We have reasons to suspect that the accident wasn't an accident."
"What do you mean?" I ask hurriedly.
"Do you know a Mrs Elena Lincoln?"
I gasp. Is this man serious?
"I do. Why?"
"Have you any reason to believe that she would be out to get you or your husband?"
I close my eyes. There are plenty of reasons why she could be out to get me or Christian but things were fine the last time I spoke with her.
"I guess it's possible, my husband dealt with her a few days ago, asking her to leave me alone and not contact me again but I can't tell you what means he took to do that." I reply knowing that he probably would have threatened her in some way. "Why? How is Elena involved in all of this?"
"Mrs Grey, Elena Lincoln was driving the other car." The Sergeant replied and I gasp in complete shock.
Lucky for me Taylor arrived by my side just as this news was broken to me.
"Mrs Grey?" He asks and I clutch tight to his hand.
"Where is she now?"
"Here, both her legs are broken, it seems she ran a red light and drove on a diagonal into your husband crushing her legs in the process, she had to be cut out of the vehicle."
"Taylor, I want Ryan, Sawyer and Prescott flown out of Seattle as soon as possible, get me Welch on the phone too." I say quickly. "Thank you officers is there anything else you need?"
"No Ma'am, I must ask who are Ryan, Sawyer, Prescott and Welch?"
"Not that it's any of your business but Ryan, Sawyer and Prescott are Mr Grey and my security team along with Taylor here, Welch is a privet investigator who is contracted to Grey's Enterprises Inc." I tell him. "As you say Elena Lincoln is here I think added security is a necessity don't you?"
"Of course Ma'am. Just please stay on the right side of the law and let us deal with this?"
"Do you know who my husband is Sergeant Smith?"
"Christian Grey, CEO of Grey's Enterprise Holdings Inc."
"Exactly, now we will stay on the right side of the law and allow you to do your jobs but we will not stand by and do nothing. Now here is my number, please call if you need anything."
I take a business card from my purse and hand it over to the officer before walking off leaving the officers dumbfounded.
Arriving outside Christian's room I lean against the wall face on. My arm rests beneath my forehead as I process everything I've just learned and everything I've just done. I was in command with Taylor, and I can't help but smile thinking Christian would be proud of me but then I think of Elena and how she crashed into our car and almost killed Christian and I begin to tremble. How could she? I thought she loved him?
After taking a deep steady breath to calm myself I make my way through to Christian's room. He's still out cold and Grace and Carrick are sat in silence.
"Carrick I need some legal advice." I say softly so not to startle anyone.
"What about?" He asks weakly.
"I need a restraining order. The police… they know who crashed into us and they don't think it was an accident." I say trying to keep my composure.
"Who was it Ana?" Grace asks me, her voice a near whisper.
"Elena Lincoln and she's here at this hospital with two broken legs."
"I'll sort it Ana, leave it with me." Carrick smiles softly getting to his feet.
"I've asked Taylor to fly some more security out. We're going to be here a while and I want them here just to be safe. I also need to call Welch find out if he can find when Elena flew out." I say to Grace as Carrick has already left the room.
"Ok." Grace replies with a smile just as my cell phone begins to ring.
I look at the caller ID and see it's Welch calling me. I nod towards Grace before stepping out into the hallway.
"Ana Grey." I answer as calmly as I can.
"Mrs Grey, Welch, Taylor filled me on the details, what can I do for you?"
"I need to know anything and everything you can about her trip to Aspen. I'm getting a restraining order and flying in security." I tell him.
"Consider it done Mrs Grey, I'll email you everything as soon as I can."
"Thank you."
The line goes dead but I don't even get to return my phone to my pocket before it rings again. This time I see it's Christian's office calling me.
"Ana Grey." I answer again wondering who it would be calling me from Grey's house at this late hour.
"Mrs Grey, It's Amanda here from Grey's House PR. I tried calling Mr Grey but there was no answer. There are rumours floating around about a car accident."
"Yes Mr Grey is still unconscious. It may not have been an accident Amanda but I don't have all the details yet."
"Mrs Grey, I'm sorry to have to do this but you'll need to make a statement to the press as soon as you can to calm thousands of people's fears and stomp the rumours."
"I understand. I'm sure the press will be camped outside the hospital soon."
"They already are Ma'am, I will set up the conference and write out a speech for you and have it emailed. I have could fly out there if necessary."
"No Amanda, it's fine just email me the speech. I can handle it." I tell her softly knowing she's only trying to help.
"Ok Mrs Grey. I hope Mr Grey is well soon. We're all thinking about you both at this time."
"Thank you Amanda."
I hang up and groan inwardly, being married to a hot shot billionaire CEO has its ups and downs and right now I'm experiencing both.
Back in Christian's room Grace hasn't moved from her position. There are three steaming Styrofoam cups of coffee on the table from Taylor who is stood with his own at the end of the bed against the wall.
"They didn't have any tea." He tells me.
"Thank you." I reply taking a sip of the liquid not caring about it burning at all.
"Security will fly at o eight hundred, Kate, Elliot, Mia and Ethan will be on board also, they'll be using the company jet."
"That's fine. Thank you Taylor." I smile gratefully and he nods at me his understanding.
My phone pings to signal an email and I'm quick to check it. Surprisingly it's not from Welch but off Amanda with the speech and details of the press conference.
"Grace." I say softly and she looks from her son to me. "There's a press conference scheduled for five am here in the hospital. They want to make the morning papers before all the rumours do."
"That's good. I don't know how you're doing this Ana…Being so collected and in control."
"I learned from a great man." I say looking to the bed. "He taught me."
"He sure knows how to handle a situation." Grace smiles. "He's going to be ok Ana, his brain is just shut itself down so that it can rest and recover."
"I know." I say but it's more of an 'I hope' that I can't voice.
"Ana…" Carrick comes back into the room waiving a piece of paper.
"What's this?" I ask as he hands it to me.
"A restraining order against Elena Lincoln. She's in room 408 two floors above." He says and I grin at him.
"Thank you. Taylor?"
"Coming Mrs Grey." He smiles back at me.
Grace shakes her head but fails to hide her own smile knowing exactly what I'm going to do.
Taylor stays one step behind me as I walk. Though somehow I'd prefer it if he was right beside me, at least that way I would be able to have some comfort from a friend but it's also good to know his behaviour doesn't differ towards me because I'm not Christian.
In the elevator I look to Taylor. He gives me a reassuring smile and I return it the best I could.
"Taylor." I say and he steps beside me so to hear me better.
"Mrs Grey?"
"I'm scared." I tell him.
Slowly he slips an arm around me and gives me a reassuring squeeze. I can tell he feels uncomfortable but it makes me feel a little support and I'm grateful.
"Thank you." He just smiles at me before letting to.
"I'm right here Ana. If you need me, I'm here." He says.
I know he means every single word.
