It has been a week since the kidnapping. I hate that he involved Avery to get to me.
I'm now 17 weeks pregnant.
The kids are all amazing and my husband has been hard at work being a fabulous husband and father.
Avery and I both have started seeing therapists to help us get over the traumatic ordeal.
I am still curious as to how he managed to get her. She had 2 security guards on her.
I decide to ask her finally. I had to give her time to recuperate before I asked her. Her security said that she was in the hallway talking to her friends when it was lunchtime and the next time he looked, she wasn't there and her friends had disappeared as well.
He assumed she went to the bathroom so he went and stood outside the bathroom waiting for her while the other CPO watched the dining room and he didn't see her and that is when they discovered that she was missing.
I walk into Avery's room. She is on her phone. "Avery, I need to speak with you please."
She puts her phone down. "Okay Mom." I walk over to her bed and sit down beside her.
"I need you to tell me how Ethan got you without security even seeing him."
She looks down and starts crying. "I just wanted to hang out with my friends without security always watching me."
"What happened baby?" I say as I rub her back.
"my friends and I snuck out the back of the school to go hang out at my friend Beth's house. I just wanted to be normal for a little while Mom." I nod. "when we got out the back gate, we started walking to Beth's house and I saw his car pull up and since he is my Uncle and WAS my other Dad, I talked to him when he stopped. He was ok with my reason for ditching school and offered to take me for ice cream and I went with him. We stopped and got ice cream and he said he had something to show me and he drove for a while until we got to that cabin. That is when he made me call you. I just sat on the couch the whole time I was there. I was so relieved when you finally came because he started acting strange. Thank you for saving me Mom."
"Baby, I will save you anytime I have to. I just hope I don't have to again. You can't be sneaking away from your security for this reason. I realize you trusted Ethan because he was your Dad but you can't get into the car with anyone without your security. Do you understand?"
"Yes Mom. Am I in trouble?"
"I'm just going to take your phone away for a week."
"But Mom…"
"No Avery. If you want to hang out with your friends, we can have sleepovers with them sometime for you."
She looks down at her hands and fidgets with her fingers. "okay."
"Thank you. Give me your phone. I have to go and talk to Dad about what you just told me, okay?"
"Okay." She hands me the phone. "I love you Mom and I am so sorry."
"It's okay baby. I love you too but never do anything like this again."
"I promise Mom."
"Also, start wearing the panic button watch. If you had pushed that, we could've gotten you out of the situation sooner."
She huffs. "Okay." I give her a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
I leave the room and go in search of my husband. I find him in his office. I walk in and close the door. I walk around his desk and sit on his lap.
"I found out how Ethan got Avery."
He looks at me questionably. "How?"
I sigh. "she was ditching school with her friends to be free of security for a little bit. Ethan saw them walking and she trusted him since he was her Dad. He offered her ice cream so she went with him."
I can see the anger emanating from his eyes. I wrap my arms around his neck. "calm down before you have a heart attack."
"What do we do about this, Ana?"
"I took away her phone. I told her that someday we can host a sleepover for her and her friends so she can have a semi normal chance to hang out with her friends."
He nods. "is that going to keep her from repeating her actions?"
"I think being kidnapped did that for her. I doubt she will try again. We just have to have security also covering exits as well as just watching her from a distance."
"Okay. I trust you Ana. I knew teenage years were gonna kill me and we're going to have a lot of teenagers in 10 years. I'm sure to have plenty of Grey hair by then."
I giggle. "we can handle this baby."
"I love you Mrs. Grey. Thank you for talking me down. I was ready to have her home schooled and forbid her from hanging out with her friends that helped her sneak out of school. We should at least inform the other parents about what they were doing."
"sounds good. I love you too. I'm going to spend the rest of the day with the kids. Join me when you're done here?"
"Of course baby." I give him a sweet kiss which he quickly deepens and I reciprocate. He has me stand up and he pulls me back onto his lap, sitting me astride him.
I help him release himself from his pants. He is pleasantly surprised when he finds that I'm not wearing any panties. "put your palms on my desk and bend over the best you can."
I nod and do as I'm told and within moments he is thrusting into my core and he fucks me hard and fast. "cum with me Ana." And I explode spectacularly around him taking him over the edge with me. "fuck. I needed that. You okay?"
"I am fantastic baby." He kisses my back as he pulls out and he pulls me back onto his lap and holds me until our breathing regulates.
"Okay. NOW I'm going to spend time with our kids." I kiss him again and he helps me up.
"I will join you soon baby."
I smile and blow him a kiss as I leave the room.
I spend the rest of the day with our kids and after an hour, Christian joins us and we have a fantastic evening as a family indoors because it is yet another rainy day in Seattle.
Christian takes Avery to his office and has a talk with her. After about 30 minutes, she comes storming out of his office in tears and marches straight up to her room. Christian comes and wraps an arm around me. "What happened Christian? She is very clearly upset."
"I got information out of her about her friends and told her I was contacting their parents as well. She didn't like that and proceeded to tell me she hates me so I sent her to her room."
"You know she doesn't hate you, right?"
"I know baby."
"She is just prematurely acting like a teenager, one with your attitude obviously. She loves you. She is sure to tell us both how much she hates us many times in the future. Mostly when they're in trouble with us."
"It's okay baby. I can handle it. I love you." He gives me a sweet kiss.
"I love you too. Let's put these kids to bed and go to bed ourselves."
He smiles as he gives me another kiss . "I like the way you think Mrs. Grey."
We go through bedtime rituals with all the kids and lay them down. We go in and give Avery a hug and a kiss on the head and she is still mad. "Christian, I need to have a talk with Avery. I will be with you shortly." He nods and smiles.
I look over to Avery and sit on the edge of her bed and run my fingers through her gorgeous copper locks.
"You know, we have these rules to keep us safe and especially to keep you kids safe. He had to call their parents so they were aware of their kids ditching school because that way, we can trust you all to not pull that kind of stuff when they come over for a sleepover."
She smiles at this. "we can still have sleepovers?"
"Yes, once everything calms down."
She wraps her arms around me. "I love you. Thank you."
"No problem sweetie. I love you too. We just want you safe and happy. Same goes for the other kids too."
"Okay Mom. I understand. Can you have Dad come in here. I said mean things to him."
"I'll send him in baby. Good night."
"Good night Mom."
I leave the room and go to our bedroom and find my husband butt naked. "Christian, put some clothes on. Avery would like to speak to you."
"Okay. You be naked when I get back."
"mmm.. of course baby."
He gets up and throws on pajama pants and a t-shirt and leaves the room to go talk to Avery. 15 minutes later, he comes sauntering in locking the door and stripping his clothes back off as he sees me naked on the bed.
He makes love to me and we drift into a peaceful slumber safe in each other's arms.
