A/N: Hello ladies! I've been recovering slowly but surely. I had a terrible cold as mentioned last week but I can officially say that all the natural remedies work! I am much better. I have a residual cough, but I'm no longer contagious, and I feel so much better. With everyone being quarantined home I may be able to write more frequently! Here are a few tips (if you don't know already) that I used and helped my family tremendously:

Wash your hands frequently with antibacterial soap.

After you use items in a room and especially the bathroom use Clorox or Lysol cleaner. Spray the toilet seat, counter, and bathroom. Wipe it down and leave the window open to further kill germs.

Buy ginger, turmeric, and lemon. Blend it all together, then heat it up as a tea/tonic. It's strong but drink it as much as you can. (It has antibacterial properties, and will not let mucus, and phlegm settle on your chest)

Increase vitamin c and fruits. Get it the natural way.

Every night before bed wipe down all kitchen, bathroom, and living areas down with disinfectant, then spray all handles remotes, and laptops (phones especially) with Lysol.

Pray, then go to bed.

Look at the ceiling for about fifteen minutes, grab your phone and read Fanfiction. (LOL)

If all else fails, buy some toilet paper and rub it on your throat. I heard that works. (LOL my state of California has lost its mind.)

All mistakes are my own.


Something wasn't sitting right with Elliot.

Christian had been vague on the phone about meeting today, and it worried him. His brother was always articulate and to the point. Getting dressed, he smiled when he saw Kate passed out in the bed. She'd been working double shifts, and it'd been kicking her butt. He was proud of her, though. With Elena long gone, she was forced to take more work. But she told Elliot that she liked it because she liked helping people. He decided to leave her asleep and catch her up later if possible.

Twenty minutes later Elliott arrived at Christian's office, smiling at his secretary.

"Hey, Andrea. Is he in?"

Smiling she pointed to the door.

"Yes. He's waiting for you." Thanking her, he knocked once before opening the door. Christian glanced up from his computer smiling at his brother.

"Elliot. Hey. Come in." Stepping fully into the office he closed the door behind him before rounding his desk. Standing, Christian returned his hug.

"First of all, I want to say Congratulations! Kate told me that you and Ana are expecting a girl. Your first child. I'm so excited for you Christian. I know you'll make a great father," he added to which his brother grinned.

"Yeah. I'm excited. But nervous too. I mean, a girl? Literally she's having guards from day one." Snorting, Elliott knew Christian wasn't exaggerating.

"Hey Christian. Make sure to let the girl breathe a bit. Overbearing parents don't always win awards."

"No but they keep their children safe and alive," Christian quipped. Elliot knew he wouldn't win that battle between him and his brother so he just let it go.

Poor Ana, He thought in amusement.

"What's up, man? You sounded cryptic on the phone," Elliott said as he settled in the chair across from his brother's. Christian waved his hand around.

"Police are listening to the family again. I wanted to make sure anything we said about the business would be confidential." Leaning forward, Christian got to the point.

"We have shipments coming in. These are from Ireland. They want to make sure we buy from them, so Jackson, the head over in the UK made sure the products being sent were quality. He even cut the price in half."

"What does Ros think?" Standing, Christian walked over to his windows.

"She likes the product they want to send, but she's not so sure as to why they're being too kind."

Elliott sighed before rubbing his own face.

"Can't say that I blame her. I think it's a little suspicious."

"I was at first. But, I think they want the boasting rights to say they sold to the Grey family. It increases credibility with the other families. Especially if they're looking to keep the weapons sell going."

"But what if it's setup? I don't know Christian. We've always done sales with the original families. Would dad have jumped at this?" At that, Christian paused. He knew what Elliot was saying was right, but he also knew he had to keep up appearances. He was slowly leaving the weapon trafficking, but he had to slowly extricate himself from it. Taylor was right. It would take more than an announcement for the families to understand he was out of the game. Plus, they would probably suspect the police were involved if he suddenly stopped. Instead of saying all of that, he smirked at Elliott.

"You're right. It's a risk. But one I'm willing to take."

Elliott ran his hands over his thighs before shaking his head.

"I'm still not too sure about this avenue, but I'm your brother and partner. I'm with you until the end. I am confused though, Christian. It doesn't sound like you need me."

Sliding his hands in his pocket he pushed himself away from the window before walking over to his wet bar.

"I do. I want you to orchestrate the entire deal. Ros, of course, will be there, you just won't see her. Jackson is okay with you doing the deal. He explained to me it was fine as long as a Grey brother was present."

Swallowing, Elliott took the drink his brother gave him. He hissed at the whiskey going down his throat.

"Alright. Just name the time and place."

"It'll be in three days. Over at our docks. 11 p.m."

Setting his glass down he stood.

"I will be there. Who else knows about this?"

"Right now? You, me Taylor, Sawyer, and Ros."

Surprised Elliott asked about Ana.

"I never tell her about the specifics of this. I don't want her tied to any of it." Christian said before staring at his brother. Elliott sighed.

"But lies-"

"This isn't a lie. She knows what I do. I just don't want her to know specifics. What good does this information do for her? I am keeping my promise to her and my unborn daughter that no harm will come to them. This is my way of doing that." Elliott could see that his brother was serious. He admired Christian for his determination to keep the family safe. Just then Andrea's voice could be heard through the speakers of his office.

"Mr. Grey I'm sorry to interrupt. But you're one o'clock appointment is here."

Leaning over he pressed the intercom button.

"Thank you, Andrea. I'm walking out now." Glancing over at his brother, Christian walked over and patted his shoulder.

"Thanks for coming by. And remember Elliott, this has to stay off the phones."

"Alright. The day before I'll come to your house. See if I missed any important details."

"Thank you. See Ros before you leave. She may have a bit more information that you may need."


It had been killing Ana.

She needed to tell Maria and Gail about the possible mole in the family. She knew without a doubt that it was not those two women. They were like mothers to her. She decided to tell them when no one was in the house. Currently, the two women were cleaning the kitchen, laughing and talking. Ana came in pretending to be in pain. She clutched her back, and the two immediately saw it and dropped everything.

"Oh my Ana, are you alright?"

"I can call Mr. Grey and an ambulance."

"Better yet, send Taylor. He's a mix of both," Maria added. Ana inwardly chuckled at that. Sawyer was a mix of an ambulance driver and a hitman. Well, he was the second one.

"I may need help. Can you two make sure I get to my room okay?" Concerned they each grabbed an arm before escorting Ana up the stairs. The women both knew by the time Mr. Grey found out, the man would install an elevator in the already large home. Once they were all alone, Ana sat up in her bed and waved the women closer. They looked at one another before moving closer to her.

"I know there are no bugs in this room as Christian has it swept every night." Their eyes widened before they both nodded.

"Okay. I have something I need to tell you both. But you cannot tell another soul."

"We promise, Ana," Gail said before squeezing Maria's hand. Ana nodded before speaking slowly.

"There is a mole in the family. Christian was told by Sawyer, and they're working to expose them."

Both women gasped in alarm.

"Who could this person be?" Shrugging, Ana said she didn't know.

"Taylor didn't tell Christian because he doesn't want him to be in the middle. He has an idea of who it is but won't say. Not until he has enough information."

Sitting on the edge of her bed, Maria sighed.

"That's smart. You don't want to accuse someone only to have half the story. It gets exposed, and the real mole will go into hiding."

"That's what I was thinking," Ana said. "But, I wanted you two to know because you're my mothers. And you always look out for me. So anything not pertaining to the baby, or Christian's regular job at Grey Enterprises keep to yourself. I want whoever this person is to think you are both clueless. It keeps you protected. Promise me," Ana said firmly. The two smiled at her before nodding.

"I promise."

"So do I," Gail added. Maria leaned over and kissed Ana's cheek.

"You are going to make a lovely mother dear. So protective."

At that, Ana smiled.

"Yes. But my daughter will have lovely women as her role models," Ana added to which they squealed. Ana and Christian came back late the previous night after they found out the sex of their baby. Ana knew the two ladies were dying to know what the child was, but Ana wanted to tell them her own way. She was glad that she waited. Willow would definitely know today judging by the two of them, but that was fine.

"It's going to be wonderful having a little girl around here to spoil."

"Christian will definitely take the lead on that," Ana said before giggling. "But I can't wait to meet my daughter. I can't wait to hold her and tell her how much I love her. The most important thing is that she's safe. And no one will ever try to harm her," Ana said quietly. Both women knew what she was talking about and silently agreed.


Christian sighed before walking into his home. He knew that Ana here, and it eased his conscience somewhat for what he did. But he had to know. He was debating about telling Elliott the real reason as to why he called his office. But then he received a call from Blake.

"To what do I owe the pleasure of hearing your voice? Did Willow give you permission?" Christian joked to which Blake laughed heartily at.

"Very funny son. No. I was just thinking about the conversation you and I had the other day." Christian was quiet because he didn't want to say anything over the phone. Blake knew this and chose his words carefully.

"Christian. I want you to think about who you tell. I'm sure you have wise counsel around you, but I would be slow to speak about the upcoming events at Grey Enterprises," Blake said deciding to speak in code. Christian instantly caught on.

"About the new promotions?"

"Yes. There are other companies and competitors that want your products. They want to be the first, and you've beaten them at every turn. I would think about internal promotion especially."

Code: Be slow to tell Elliott.

"You wouldn't promote the possible candidate I've mentioned?"

Blake sighed.

"I think you can trust this candidate, but I would be slow. Especially after the last altercation involving this person."

Deciding to drop the conversation Christian laughed.

"You know Blake. If you hadn't gone into criminal work, you could've gone into the corporate world."

"You know. I hear it's the same thing," Blake joked.

The message had been received loud and clear. Christian was now at a loss. For the first time in his life, he didn't know who the mole was, and Christian didn't like knowing. He pulled at his tie smiling when he heard Ana's voice drifting from the living room. He announced himself once he entered the room.

"Ana."

Turning from talking to Gail, Ana screamed a bit before getting up and running over to him. He laughed surprised at the welcome.

"I see I've been missed," he said before chuckling. Ana leaned back in his arms and kissed him softly.

"We missed you today."

Grinning he walked with Ana in his arms as if she weighed nothing. Ana giggled allowing herself to be taken through the house. She laughed when she saw him being stopped by Taylor.

"Sir," he started only for Christian to groan.

"No. Please tell me I'm not needed." Taylor was smirking but he quickly schooled his face.

"I'm sorry, sir. But you are needed. Sawyer needs help with one of the security details." Christian sighed before placing Ana gently on her feet. He kissed her cheek before sighing.

"Duty calls Mrs. Grey."

She laughed and waved off Taylor's silent apology watching the men leave.


"What is this detail that took me away from my lovely wife?" Christian asked as they walked into his office. Taylor closed and locked the door before speaking.

"It's working, sir. Being selective on who knows about the weapons transfer is successful. I haven't heard any news being filtered. If I do, and I'm right, we will know exactly who it is." Nodding, Christian asked about his daughter.

"She is doing great. She loves her new school. I'm just happy that she is smiling and doing girly things."

"Girly things?" Christian questioned. Taylor smirked before shaking his head.

"You have no idea, sir. You will soon find out," he said before taking off his earpiece.

"That was all, sir."

"Thank you, Taylor."

Once the man left, Christian ran a hand over his head. He tried so hard to not think about it, but he couldn't help it. He didn't like his family being exposed. Since Taylor informed him about the mole he's increased security on almost everyone. Willow is nervous and has limited her talks to his office or while she was shopping. Because of the threat, and Ana's pregnancy, she's been staying close to the house. He very much appreciated her willingness to stay safe.

"Who could it be?" he wondered aloud. Well, he knew something had to happen soon. Knowing he'd be unable to relax until he could quiet his mind, he powered up his computer. Before he could open the first email, however, he received a message from Willow.

Can you talk? -W

Calling her, she answered on the first try.

"I'm on my secure line," she said. Christian leaned back in his chair.

"I'm sure Blake told you, then." Sipping on her wine she made a noise.

"He did. I don't know about you, but something's not sitting right. The fact that we have some person in the family who could possibly be feeding the cop's information is not ideal. It's just so unnerving. Blake told me that Taylor won't tell you who it is," she said venom in her voice. Christian knew what she was thinking.

"Taylor isn't selling us out, Willow."

"It's not wrong to question everyone. You need to know. Your father would've been out of his mind with worry."

"That's putting it mildly," Christian said amusement in his voice. His father would've murdered members in the family until someone talked.

"At this point, it's not a bad idea." At that comment, Willow laughed throatily.

"I was there when your father did his first, how do you say, downsize activity. Let's just say people were confessing about much more than selling information."

Christian could imagine.

"Anyway, I wanted to call to let you know that I've been keeping my eyes and ears open. Some of my girls have been making sure to keep an eye out as well."

"Thanks, Willow." Christian could hear a door open on Willow's side.

"I'll let you go. Tell Blake I'll talk to him later."

"Will do. And you leave the office. I know you're in there. Make sure to tell Ana that I will be by to see her, and my future grand-daughter."

At the mention of Ana and their child he smiled.

"I will. Goodnight."

"Night."


"We haven't heard from you."

"I know. I've been busy. They've closed ranks. It's hard for me to get information."

Slamming their fist on the table, the man roared.

"You're running out of time. And I'm running out of patience. You won't get-"

"I know! Just give me some time. I think something is happening this week. But I have to make sure."

The man breathed heavily before running his hand over his captive. They moaned but it only made him grin.

"I will give you to the end of the week."

"No, wait I-"

The dial tone was the only thing heard before a sigh.


Who is it?! LOL Leave me a review. Love you all. Next time I'll add smexy scenes along with the drama. I'm going back to rest now.
