It has been a month since my confrontation with Ethan at the Grey's manor. Christian has tried to tell Mia what happened but she doesn't believe it which only frustrates Christian more. Especially when she says that I'm lying to try to split them up. Christian has talked to Elliot about it as well so Elliot is also trying to warn Mia.

Needless to say, we haven't been to any of the Grey's Sunday evening family dinners since the day of the confrontation. We go and spend time with his parents on Saturdays instead now so we can avoid Mia and Ethan.

I also talked with Kate about what happened and she believes me but even she says that Mia won't budge without proof and I'm not going around him to get proof.

I'm currently 16 weeks pregnant with our second set of twins and our kids are doing fantastic. Ethan hasn't had any visitations with Teddy or Phoebe in the last 4 weeks due to his own behavior. Again, Mia is on his side claiming that I am keeping the kids away from him and holding them against him because I supposedly want him. He is really fucking with everyone's heads.

We are getting ready to go to work. Sawyer and Prescott are on me today. I begrudgingly have to deal with not 1, but 2 shadows. We have no idea if Ethan will try something drastic to get to me. Better safe than sorry. Ethan has been added to the list of proscribed visitors so he isn't allowed to be near me. This makes me feel a little more safe.

"You want to ride in together today baby?"

"Yes. It gives me more time with my husband." I smile and wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him sweetly.

"Well let's go then, wench." I giggle as he playfully smacks my ass. I take his hand and we descend the stairs together and we kiss our kids goodbye and head out the door. Avery is going with us so we can drop her off at school with her security.

They drop me and Sawyer and Prescott off at work and I give my husband another kiss before sliding out of my seat and going in.

I spend the morning wrapped up in some intense manuscripts when my phone rings.

I pick it up without looking who it is.

"Ana Grey."

"Mom, I need you now. Ethan took me from school. He said he will only let me go if he has you."

Panic immediately sets in. "let me talk to him baby."

"Okay. I love you Mom."

"I love you too baby."

"Well well Ana. It's nice to talk to you again."

"What do you want Ethan?"

"I want you. That's it. I need you to come out the back door without your security. Get into the black SUV."

"You better not hurt Avery. I will do what you ask for her. You have to let her go once you have me. That's my demand."

"You're in no position to make demands Ana but I will gladly release her as soon as I have you."

"I have to sneak out and then I will be there."

"Make it quick."

I hang up and sneak out of Sawyer's view and slide out the back door. There is a black SUV parked in the alley. I hit my panic button on my watch as I approach the SUV and I climb in. Inside is a woman, who is driving. It's the whore he cheated on me with. I sigh. This can't be good. "Phone!"

I hand her my phone and she dumps it in the alley and drives off quickly. "where are we going?"

"That's for me to know and you to find out."

Great she's a smart ass whore. She drives me to a cabin in the woods just outside of Seattle. This reminds me of the crazy subs. She gets out and opens my door and pulls me out and she pulls cable ties out of her pocket and restrains my hands behind my back.

She pushes me into the front of the cabin and immediately I see Avery sitting on the couch. "Avery." I take off towards her but the whore grabs me and pulls me back and then I notice Ethan entering the room.

"Look who finally made it!" he exclaims as he walks closer to me. He touches my face and I jerk my head away. "this will be much easier if you comply Ana. You drove me to have to take extreme measures to get my family back."

"Let Avery go!"

He sighs and shakes his head. "Lisa, take Avery and drop her off at Grey House really quick with her phone so she can call her precious Daddy and then I want you to come right back here."

"Okay Ethan." She walks over and grabs Avery by the arm and drags her off the couch.

"Be gentle with her. She is just a child."

The whore smirks at me and loosens her grip a little and walks her out the door but I mouth 'I love you' to her when she makes eye contact with me and she mouths it back.

Ethan grabs my arm rather forcefully and pulls me into a bedroom? I think it is a bedroom. The windows are blacked out and it is dark. He turns the light on. He throws me down on the bed and I roll onto my side. "I've been waiting to get you alone for almost 2 years Ana. Mia was just a distraction and a way to get closer to you." He pushes me down onto my back and kisses me forcefully. I'm disgusted. "You said I'd never have you again and you know I love a challenge."

The cable ties are really digging into my wrists. "My hands Ethan. They hurt too much behind my back." He sighs and rolls me onto my side and goes to get something and comes back and cuts the ties off and he rolls me back onto my back and kisses me again. When he puts his tongue in my mouth I bite it hard. He pulls back quickly and backhands me.

"You fucking bitch." I quickly knee him in the balls and kick him onto the floor and I sit astride him so he can't get back up and I punch him repeatedly.

"You are psychotic Ethan. You don't fuck with my family." I yell as I keep swinging. I don't even notice someone entering the room until someone pulls me off of him. I see Taylor check on Ethan and he is still alive. He restrains him.

It is then that I realize my husband is holding me. I turn around and wrap my arms around him. "It's okay baby. I have got you now."

"Did you get Avery? The whore was taking her to Grey house."

"No. Let Sawyer go pick her up. We need to get you cleaned up before you see her. You're covered in blood Ana. I look down and my shirt and sure enough, I am definitely covered in blood.

"Let's go then." He wraps an arm around me.

"Taylor, call the police to handle him. I think Ana fucked him up enough."

"Yes sir."

"Tell the police to contact me and Ana will give a statement once she is in better condition."

"Yes sir."

He walks me out to the awaiting SUV where Prescott is waiting and we get in and she takes us home.

Once we're inside the house, Christian sneaks me straight up to our bathroom. He sets me up on the counter and Runs me a bath. He comes back to me and peels my bloody clothes off of me. "Thank you Christian."

"Why did you go Ana?"

"He had Avery, Christian. I had to come alone or he might've hurt her."

"That is a valid reason. Stupid to go alone but I understand why you did it."

"Well I had the panic button so I knew you would find me. She wasn't wearing hers today for some reason."

After my bath water is ran, he helps me into the tub and I lay back.

"Call and make sure Sawyer got Avery. She is probably going to need therapy after this. Also, we need to figure out how he got her." I shake my head and start crying. He rubs my back and soothes me. Once my crying dies down, he puts body wash on my sponge and washes everything gently. Hair and body both.

"We will get her a therapist. She is a strong girl."

When he finally finishes washing me, he pulls the plug and helps me out and dries me off and he takes me into the bedroom and brushes and dries my hair. He is so gentle with me. "You go brush your teeth so I can kiss you properly while I grab you some comfortable clothes."

I nod and go brush my teeth. I remember that his blood was in my mouth and brush again and rinse my mouth out with mouthwash.

I come out of the bathroom and he kisses me softly and helps me into my clothes. He notices the sores on my wrists from the cable ties and he grabs some kind of cream and puts some on the marks.

"Let's go spend some time with the kids."

"okay."

We walk downstairs and immediately I see Avery and I run and wrap my arms around her. "Are you hurt Avery?"

"No Mom. That was scary though. I was afraid he was gonna hurt you Mom."

"Shhh.. we're okay now baby." I give her a kiss on the head.

We spend the rest of the evening with the kids. We put them to bed and go to bed ourselves and I just have my husband hold me close so I feel safe. "Love me in the morning baby?"

"That can be arranged." He gives me a sweet kiss. "Sleep now baby." Is all I hear before drifting off to sleep.
