AN: TO THE GUEST REVIEWER WHO WROTE THIS

I don't understand how anyone is getting rape from consensual, albeit very bad, sex. She came to him that night with the hope and intention of losing her virginity. He asked if they could have sex, she said yes. At no time during sex did she indicate with words or actions she wanted him to stop. A grimace on her face does not mean he raped her. Which he would not have even seen anyway if they had been having sex like many people - lights out. Rough sex is not rape. In what way did he coerce or force her to have sex?
Yes, Christian was wrong to be rough with her and she obviously was not lubricated enough, but I do not believe it was rape.

I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU.

ELENA

All of a sudden I don't have a reservation, I have had an understanding with these guys for years. But today it's as if they don't have a clue as to who I am. I know it's the work of Grace Grey, all week every high-end establishment has turned me away. The damage she caused to my scalp cost me thousands in repair and even that's not a permanent solution.

It's a shame I already dismantled the dungeon, having one of my subs over for a while would have soothed the anger I'm feeling now. I just wanted to celebrate finally receiving the paperwork from Christian by having my usual Saturday brunch at the Fairmont.

I can take solace in the fact that this is my final week in Seattle. I've already found a buyer for the salons, house and cars. I've decided to start fresh in the south of France. No Grey's to influence people, I will be wealthy and gorgeous. Can't wait to get home and get started. Au revoir Seattle.

"What the fuck?" Why are there several trucks in my driveway. What the hell are those men doing with my things?

"Who the fuck are you and where do you think you are taking my things."

"Aah, Mrs. Lincoln I take it." Jesus what an imbecile, I said my things. It's obvious I'd be the owner of this property.

"What do you think?" I shouted at the fool.

"Mrs. Lincoln my name is Al…"

"I don't give a fuck what your name is. Now answer the question."

"That's what I was doing. I have a court order, here read it for yourself." I snatch the papers from his hand. It was not just a court order, but an eviction notice as well. It was been executed on behalf of Christian Grey. No this is wrong, Christian paid everything and signed them over to me.

"Hey you, this is a mistake, this is wrong, I don't owe anybody anything, not a cent."

"Then you are going to have to take it up with the courts. If you are right your possessions will be returned to you."

"What?" I'm calling Christian, he will have this sorted soon.

I've spent the last half hour trying to get hold of him, where the hell is he.

I call Emma the sub I have following Christian, she will know where he is.

"Emma."

"Yes, mistress."

"Where is Grey?"

"Mistress he's at his parent's home."

"Stay on him."

"Yes, mistr…"

I need Peter something doesn't add up here.

"Peter."

"Yes, mistress."

"Get here now."

I spent 15 minutes outside as those fools would not let me enter my own property. Apparently so I don't take anything. I told them I just wanted to change into something comfortable, I need to get to my closet. They said I could change after as I was keeping my clothes. Well, that made my day, meaning they are not aware of the safe in the closet. My insurance policy is safe.

"Mistress."

"You took your time. Get in the car."

I take out the paperwork I received this morning and give it to Peter to read, he's a law student this should be child's play. After almost three hours, the fools have finally left. My cars and every piece of furniture are gone. I walk into a place that was once my home. Good thing I'm selling up, I will stay at the Heathman for the next week to finalize everything as I doubt I will find a decent place here in Seattle. How can one family wield so much power? Wasn't that the reason you attached yourself to them, Elena.

"Mistress."

"Well."

"You signed the contract 2 months ago."

"No, I didn't, it was 2 weeks ago."

"According to the date on these it was 2 months ago."

"Oh yes, the date on the original. Go on."

" You agreed that Mr. Grey will pay off your loans and mortgage to the bank. In exchange, you downsize to enable you to pay him back.

"Why the fuck would I do that?"

"Well the APR on the loans to the bank was 18.9% and with Grey is nothing. But in the 2 months since you signed this agreement you have made no efforts to pay him back."

"Isn't the court supposed to give me the opportunity to pay before resorting to taking everything."

"Usually yes, but your attempts to sell the properties and fleeing the country expedited the seizures."

"The son of bitch played me, hell he planted the idea to sell knowing this was what would happen.

"It would appear so because if you had any idea of what he was trying to do you could have declared bankruptcy you may not have kept a lot of things but at least you would still have something with this your house and all contents, cars and your percentage in the saloon business would be sold at auction to pay back some of what you own and your accounts have being frozen."

I need to vent.

"Peter meet me at the club tonight."

"Why?"

"I'm sorry, have you forgotten who you are speaking to."

"No, do you actually believe I stayed your Sub for the mediocre sex, it was for the money, it paid for law school and frankly it's was a poultry amount forever taking my dick near that decrepit wrinkle you call a virgina. Hell, right now I have more money than you."

I stand there stunned, watching Peter walk away, I don't know why I'm surprised. I know the kind of Domme I am. But to hear him say he would never have come near me without the money leaves me feeling cold.

My life is unravelling all because Christian hurt some girl if only I knew who she was, I believe it was the girl I met in his office. Just as grace was about to tell me, Elliot bust through the door and tried to attack me. If Christian thinks it is over he's got another thing coming. There's something to be said for insurance policies they really do get you out of a jam.

CHRISTIAN

"What the hell, why are you here." My mom screams at Elena. My dad notices the exchange between Ana and me.

"Grace, honey I believe this is something you want to hear." My mom nods.

We are all staring at Elena with unreserved hatred. It takes her a minute but she finally finds her voice.

"Christian, what is the meaning of this."

"Meaning of what."

"This." She throws the papers at me.

"One is a court order to seize all your assets and this is an eviction notice asking you to be out of the property in thirty days. It's pretty clear.

"You can't do that, where am I going to go."

"I don't give a fuck. Sorry mom."

"No, no son carry on."

"Christian you've taken everything my bank accounts have being frozen. Please don't do this."

"Like I said I. Don't. Give. A. Fuck."

"Christian I'm begging you."

I hear Ana mumble something about getting on her knees if she's truly begging. Looking at Elena, I guess she heard the comment too as she is glaring at Ana, for all the good it does her. Ana doesn't even blink.

"You can beg all you want, it won't change anything. On the bright side, you get to keep your clothes."

Her eyes widen, now she knows I have the pictures. I have been planning this for weeks, I knew about the pictures she had of me as a Sub and exactly where they were. She had a little too much to drink on one of our dinner meetings and told me about them, she called it her insurance policy. Of course, she said it didn't apply to me. It took Taylor's friend all of 10 minutes to get them from the safe hidden in her closet.

"Christian ple…" I don't let her finish as I turn to talk to Elliot.

"Elliot haven't you got something to tell me.

"No nothing, nothing at all." He is walking away from me as he says this, well more like getting ready to sprint. Yeap there he goes, out into the yard.

"Elliot I'm faster than you." Yes, I'm faster in a straight, but Elliot keeps weaving and bobbing. He makes his way back towards the house. I see my mom, Ana and Kate all looking on in amusement. Elliot runs behind my mom.

"Elliot stop hiding behind mom and.." Before I can finish my sentence, he darts behind Ana.

"Well, you did say to stop hiding behind mom."

"Lelliot."

"Yes, Chrissy," he says in a sing-song voice. That has my mum, Ana, Kate and now my dad laughing their heads off.

"How did you pull it off?" my dad asks.

"My initial plan was to gift her my percentage in the saloons. I felt like I owed her something. That was the paperwork I sent, I knew she wouldn't sign it before she'd spoken to me.

"So what changed," Kate asks. She is aware of my story. Elliot asked if he could tell her, hoping that Kate would understand me better. Guess it worked, she gave me great advice about Ana.

"A couple of days after mom gave her the bald patch." Everybody laughs. "Taylor noticed that I was been followed. That was a mistake sending one of her subs to follow me. As though my ex-Marine CPO wouldn't notice. We let her think we weren't aware.

With her sub following us. Taylor and I put a plan in place.

Go to GEH on a Sunday, no staff and minimal security. We put a new guy on the front desk, one who would allow her up without her getting suspicious. I naturally appeared annoyed that she was there.

She played right into my hands by talking about the salons losing money. Gave me the opportunity to tell I'd gifted her my percentage, paid off her mortgage and loans.

She was desperate to sign the papers, especially after I planted the idea she could sell. All she was thinking about was the money. Hell, I advised her to get legal representation, my lawyer advised her to do the same several times.

But no, not Elena. She read the first few pages realized I had genuinely paid off everything. She started signing without a care in the world. Not knowing she was agreeing to pay me back the loans I had taken on and failure to do so meant I got everything she owned.

But I had the right to exercise the seizures early if she made any attempts to defraud or flee the country. Finding out she was intending to do just that, the perfect excuse to go in and take everything."

"I almost ruined everything when I turned up with lunch," Ana adds.

"Wait, what?" My mom nearly shout.

"Oh yeah, I took Christian and Taylor lunch. Just as I walked into Taylor's office, the bitch troll turns up and matches straight into Christian's office. Well hearing him tell her he's gifting her everything. I was about to storm into his office and help him find his brain. Taylor held me back and told to wait a little longer."

"Long enough to relieve me of any guilt I felt as I still believed she helped me. Only for her to tell me it was all about her. I was just available to be abused then grow up to become her own personal ATM."

"Bro, how much does she owe you anyway."

"$6.2 million."

"Fuck." Surprised to find that was my dad.

"Her salons had a lot of regulars, you couldn't just walk in. The appointment time just to get a haircut was insane. I'm surprised she owes so much" Mia inquires.

"She's being living well beyond her means. Constantly borrowing against Esclava and her home. She had a couple of hundred thousand in her account for most people that would be heaven sent, not Elena, to her that is being broke. Before all this, she owed me $2.7 million.

"What was she spending it on?" Ana asks.

"She is a cruel Domme, the only reason her subs stay is monetary gain. She knows none of them will continue to sub for her without incentives."

"All that cosmetic work must also cost quite a bit," Kate interjects.

"Now she will know what it truly means to be broke," Elliot adds.

"When people find out, you bet at my next luncheon they will be finding out. She will become more of a joke than she already is." Mom states. I know out of everyone here she feels more responsible for what Elena did. My dad tolerated her for my mom's sake. Elliot and Mia made it clear they didn't like her. I never really talked to her around my family and if they saw us talking it was always business.

"I plan to make it impossible for her to leave Seattle. There is no way for her to pay me, I'm going to throw a few options to help her get by, ones I know she will absolutely detest, but she has no option. I plan to make sure she knows I'm responsible."

"You know this calls for a celebration and the perfect way to do that is a chocolate cake." Elliot looks at Ana while he says that.

"Elliot give it a rest," Kate says laughing.

"Come on banana please, Chris you want cake right."

"As long as Ana doesn't mind making it, sure." Thank god for Elliot he always knows how to lighten any situation.

I'm sat in the kitchen at two in the morning eating cake when my dad walks in.

"Is that my cake?"

"I found it in the fridge." I know it's his, I saw him hide it there earlier

"And what, you thought it magically appeared out of thin air."

"Sorry," I mumble as I finish the last piece. He looks like he wants to smash the plate over my head when my mum walks in.

"Christian it not yours why eat it." My dad says.

"I was angry."

"There's some leftover from dinner if you were that angry you could have had that." My dad angrily retorts. Just then Elliot walks in. The look on his face says it all. He had the same idea, I just beat him to it.

"You slimy thief."

"Oh please get off your high horse, you had the same idea."

"Fucker," he mumbles as he goes back upstairs. I'd be laughing if my dad wasn't glaring at me.

My dad leaves looking rather pissed off, leaving me alone with my mom. She looks like she wants to say something. "Mom what is it?" she looks at me for a long time before she speaks.

"I brought that woman into our into our lives." Fuck I knew it.

"Mom don't let." She doesn't let me finish.

"But it's true and every time I see Ana I realize just how much dama…" she stops talking when she realizes she's said too much.

"You know." It's not a question, but she nods.

"Who else knows?"

"As far as I'm aware no one."

"How?"

"I saw Ana at the hospital, she was talking to a colleague Dr Monroe, when she left. Dr. Monroe told me about her case. It was only when I saw her with Elliot that I realized who she was. We had lunch, she confirmed my suspicion and asked me not tell anyone. I respected her wishes."

I don't know what to say. I know Dr. Monroe, she attends the Coping Together events, she wasn't the doctor I saw talking to Taylor.

"Yes, I was angry and disappointed when I found out. Christian, you are not completely at fault here. That woman has caused a lot of damage. God knows I'm grateful for Ana in more ways than I can express. We've all seen the change in you. It's a shame that it took you hurting her for this to happen. She's a lovely young woman." She pauses.

"So let me make this clear, Christian Grey if you ever and I mean ever, hurt her again in any way shape or form, what you went through in the time Ana refused to talk to you will pale in comparison to what I will do to you. Do you hear me?"

"Crystal, I won't, and Ana knows. That's why she forgave me." My mum smiles.

"She told you that." I nod.

"There's a light at the end of the tunnel," she tells me.

"I have to be patient."

"Yes." My mom happily exclaims.

Saying a lengthy goodbye to my family feels odd, as it's something I never bothered to do before. Though I usually came to dinner before a trip, but as always left as quickly as possible.

I found it more important to have a lengthy session in my playroom instead. Saying goodbye to Ana is proving to be extremely difficult, we promised to Skype either other daily if our schedule allows, we even gave each other access to our planners. Leaving Ana makes me realize I never want to let her go. Ever.
