Chapter 37

The next morning Dr Flynn comes over to talk. I tell him that I have nightmares about being taken.
He tells me that it's normal and should subside over the next few months. Talking to Christian when they happen will alleviate my fears. If I need to phone him while we are away I can.

After he leaves I'm packing clothes for our trip. Both Christian's parents are accompanying us as well as Taylor, Sawyer, Prescott, Ryan and six other security personal. Not to mention the two already tracking Linc and Elena. I managed to convince Christian to rehire Prescott and she has been invaluable, I trust her.

I don't question Christian's control over our security anymore. He could have another five security personal accompany us and I still wouldn't argue. After my five day absence I don't want anything happening to keep this family apart.

We are leaving mid afternoon as it will take between sixteen and seventeen hours to fly to Australia. This way the children can sleep on the plane. Having the grandparents along will be helpful.

Christian checks in with the security personal who are tracking them and they are still hiding out near Newcastle in a place called Wallsend. We have been advised that we can land at Newcastle airport and then it's a thirty minute drive. There will be three 200 series Toyota Landcruisers waiting at the airport with baby seats in two of them.

We board the jet and head for Australia.


Sixteen and a half hours later we finally arrive. Taylor and Sawyer will be in our car, Prescott and Ryan will be with his parents and the rest of the detail will be in the third car.
Christian has booked the entire top floor of the Crowne Plaza in Newcastle for us and the floor below is for the security detail.

It's a beautiful hotel overlooking the harbor. Certainly going to be fun exploring this country.

Christian is planning on storming in on Linc and Elena when they least expect it. I wish I could be there to see it happen but I don't want to see him again.


The security detail has been monitoring phone calls from Linc and they still are unaware that we are here. They know the whereabouts of them at all times. They have been using the money that Christian wired to Linc but every cent is being tracked. I overheard Taylor telling Christian that they have chartered a private scenic flight tour. Christian told Taylor to take care of things. I could here them coming towards the door so I quickly retreated before being caught.

We all take in the sights of Newcastle. Christian organizes a private dinner at Fort Scratchley, overlooking the ocean.
We took the children to Oakvale farm where we got to feed kangaroos and even milked a cow.

We had a lovely cruise around Nelsons Bay and saw dolphins and humpback whales. When we return to the hotel the evening news is on and the headline catches my husbands attention...

"Tonight, a light aircraft has crashed in the Hunter Valley. Witnesses say that the aircraft was having difficulty maintaining attitude. The pilot was unable to fly the plane due to a migraine and has told authorities that the man insisted that he could fly the plane. Investigations are under way and it's reported that there were no survivors."

I stood there in shock. Surely fifty doesn't have that influence. I look at fifty and he's hiding his emotions very well. I'll have to ask him later when we are alone.

I pull out a card that was handed to me on the cruise earlier. It has me intrigued. The woman was very lovely and her children just adored Teddy and Phoebe. Even though they were a few years older they just loved talking to the twins. Both of them couldn't stop talking. Talked about everything they could. If that's what children are like heaven help us when these two start talking.

The woman said that they were packing up and moving to Queensland to start a four wheel drive hire business. Apparently Australia has the largest sand island in the world and you can four wheel drive on it. This is what's got me intrigued. I'm going to suggest we visit this place. Maybe we can spend our anniversary there.

After dinner, the grandparents take the twins for the evening allowing us some time alone.

The atmosphere starts to change with that familiar buzz between us and I know I won't be getting answers to tonight. We start to play and it's not long before he has my hands tied behind my back. He blindfolds me and puts me on our bed. I can hear him doing something but my mind is on overdrive. I start to feel panicky. I know I'm safe but the feeling is unsettling. Tears are escaping from my eyes and I start to hyperventilate. One word escapes my mouth...

"Red."

Christian gasps as he wasn't aware of my situation. He rushes to me, takes the blindfold off and unties my hands.

"Oh Ana, I should have asked if you were okay with this. Sorry baby." He wipes the tears away from my face.

"I'm sorry. I thought I could do this but obviously I'm not ready yet."

We lie together until I've settled down and there is still that energy between us. I start to kiss him and he hesitates.

"Perhaps, Mr Grey, some plain old vanilla will have to suffice."

"Nothing boring about vanilla, Mrs Grey. I love that favor."

We make sweet passionate love to each other.
