I do not own FSOG, FSD, FSF, any of its characters of affiliates. They belong to E. L. James and I will not profit from this.

Ana

I just want to know she's alright. I need to know she's safe and looked after. We've hit the forty eight hour mark and still nothing. Not a word from the person who has taken my baby girl.

The whole family is still here. Even Ray and Mom have flown in from Savannah even though I told them they didn't need to. I'm actually glad they're here even though right now I'm in my study locked away from everyone. I just need some peace as everyone keeps asking me if I need anything. Or they touch me, caress me, hug me when the only thing I want is my baby girl back at home safe and sound.

I'm so tired. Sleep has been non-existent except for when Grace drugged me but that doesn't count as sleep really.

Christian

There is no sign of Amaya. Or Jack Hyde for that matter who is my primes suspect even if he isn't the police's. I wanted to cry when I was told that homicide was now working the case alongside Missing Persons. In other words, they're now looking for a body.

She's not dead god-damn it! She just can't be! I'd know, Ana would most definitely know and while Ana still has hope left in her heart so do I.

My entire team is out looking for Amaya using the best technology known to man. The FBI are also now involved in case Amaya has been a victim of a human trafficking ring which in all honesty I'd rather my beautiful baby be dead than have to suffer something so horrific as I've heard can happen to children involved in those types of cases.

The family are as always helpful. Even though I admit sometimes I want to throttle them for getting in my way as I hunt for my precious princess. They've all done appeals on the news separately, praying for someone to get in touch with us with news about Amaya.

The only problem is we have put a one million dollar reward on the information leading to the finding of my daughter which the police have informed me has brought a lot of psychics and crazies out of the wood work claiming they have information about Amaya.

I haven't told Ana any of this. Not because I don't want to but because in the state of mind she is in right now I know she would tell us to pay for every damn psychic in the country with hope that they would lead us to Amaya and we haven't got that time to waste even if money isn't an object.

Escala has now become the place where all the security meet to exchange information. While the police have their own incident room we have our own right in the middle of the apartment. Every scrap of information we have on Jack Hyde, Amaya and any other person who could be involved is scattered along the walls and boards marked with scribbled information which gets wiped away once it's clear that the information is not needed or false.

I cannot believe that we still don't have information on where Amaya is. Or Jack.

I hired the best team possible to follow him and it took them just a week to lose him. Where the fuck is he?

I know if we find him we're one step closer to finding Amaya but even with all the best men in the country looking for him we have failed to track him down.

If anything has happened to Amaya I don't think I could ever forgive myself. I've had a draft resignation typed up for years ready to be printed when needed and I know I will print that off if we don't find Amaya safe and well.

There has got to be something we're missing. We've already been to the prison in which Jack Hyde was held for his sentence and found out that he was one very remorseful man. According to the Correction's Officers I spoke to Jack Hyde was a victim of rape in prison… serves the bastard right for what he did to all those girls who worked beneath him and tried to do to Anastasia. They said that Jack realised how he'd hurt the girls and really changed his way hence why they helped him fight for early release. So why then is he now after Ana again by taking Amaya? It just doesn't make sense, it doesn't add up The only thing I can think of is that maybe Jack Hyde has really left the country and has absolutely nothing to do with this. It's why Luke and I have been looking at every other possibility while Grey has the rest of the team hunting down Hyde.

Ana

I just want to curl up in a ball and cry but I can't. Instead I'm locked in my office going through all the photographs on my camera and editing them how I would when I take a sneaky day off work while the kids are in school and Amaya and Amelia are napping. It gives me something else to think about and every photo of Amaya there is manages to make me smile and not cry.

When the phone rings I am about to hit snooze when I see that it's an unrecognised number. It is rare that I get a phone call like that as most people want me to have their number or it's someone from work or the family that's calling.

"Hello?" I answer carefully, just in case it's a brave member of the press calling hoping for an exclusive.

"Anastasia."

I swallow hard. I know that voice. I've had nightmares about that voice sporadically over the past ten years and I would recognise it anywhere.

"Jack." I choke out.

"Please don't hang up." He says quickly.

"Do you have my daughter?" I ask fighting against screaming at him.

"No. I swear to you I don't Ana but I know who does." He says sounding so calm and sincere, it barely sounds like the man that could have killed me and my son.

"Who?" I ask fighting against my tears.

"I can't tell you…"

"Why the hell not?!" I scream.

"Shh please Ana… I want to help you but you've got to trust me…"

"Why should I?" I snap though a small part of me is already listening to his words.

"Because I can help you get Amaya home safe and sound but only if you trust me." He says.

I swallow hard as I try to think exactly what am I doing even listening to this guy. I should hang up and tell Christian but he doesn't sound like he's angry or vicious or revengeful, he sounds sincere and apologetic.

"What do you want me to do?" I ask him closing my eyes hoping I won't live to regret this.

"Meet me at the McDonalds by the parking lot for Bremerton Ferry at four o'clock. I'll tell you everything I know then. I'll be wearing a red baseball cap."

"Our security is looking for you." I say quietly as tears sting my eyes, this could be the man who either has my daughter and is about to make me regret trusting him or the man who could be really sincere and help me bring my baby home.

"They won't find me. Just make sure you're not followed and if you bring someone Ana I'm sorry to say you'll never find Amaya." He says before the phone line goes dead.

I stare at the screen of my cell for a moment while my head goes into overdrive. He could be completely lying and that he's going to take me and blackmail me and he might have no idea where Amaya really is but the truth is I have to hope and pray that he's sincere because I am desperate to find my daughter, to hold her, to kiss her and to tell her that I love her dearly.
