I open the door to my black Audi SUV, and Ana clambers in, quickly I pull out my blackberry and send Andrea, my PA an e-mail.

Andrea,

Send me a latest copy of a Non-Disclosure Agreement.

That will be all.

Christian Grey
CEO Grey Enterprise Holdings Inc.

I take a deep breath, my hand over car door handle and yank it open. My mind drifting slightly as I feel so insecure in the short space between us in the car. The electricity. The immense atmosphere, closing us together was astounding. I put the keys in the ignition out of the corner of my Ana lifts her hand and places them on her lips, they are slightly swollen from my kiss. I want her. My mind wonders back all so slightly to 5 minutes ago. The feel of her soft skin, her soft perfect shaped lips.

She looks at me and I ignore my thoughts and concentrate on the music player switching it to Lakmé, I start the car engine and reverse out of the parking space. The car interior is filled with the sweet, magical music of the Delibes. I pull out on to SW Park Avenue and drive easy towards Clayton's.
"What are we listening to?" Ana asks her words smooth and soft in the flow of the music.
"It's the Flower Duet by Delibes, from the opera Lakmé. Do you like it?"
"Christian, it's wonderful."
"It is, isn't it?" I grin, glancing at her. For a moment I feel completely at ease, simply myself. The person I haven't been my entire life. Never care free just controlled self-important CEO. What is she doing to me? The song ends and changes into a more upbeat melody.
"Can I hear that again?" Ana asks.
"Of course." I push the button and the music once again fills the car.
"You like classical music?" she asks.
"My taste is eclectic, Anastasia, everything from Thomas Tallis to the Kings of Leon. It depends on my mood." I glance at her so innocent, caught up in my words and the sway of the music. "You?"
"Me too. Though I don't know who Thomas Tallis is." I turn and gaze at her seriously?
"I'll play it for you sometime. He's a sixteenth century British composer. Tudor church choral music." I grin at her. "Sounds very esoteric, I know, but it's also magical, Anastasia."

I reach towards the stereo again, pressing the shuffle button; the car automatically fills with 'Sex on Fire' by Kings of Leon. Typical... Ana my sex was on fire in that elevator. All of a sudden, the music cuts out and my cell phone takes over the system. I push a button on the steering wheel to answer. Who the fuck is interrupting, Christ.
"Grey." I snap
"Mr. Grey, it's Welch here. I have the information you require." His voice rasping and disembodied comes through the speaker. Oh that must been Tokyo is all go, fantastic.
"Good. Email it to me. Anything to add?"
"No sir."
I end the call, pressing the button again; the music is back on. Swaying the final words of Sex on Fire, the phone rings again.
"Grey."
"The NDA has been emailed to you, Mr Grey."
"Good. Thanks all, Andrea."
"Good day, sir."
I hang up again and before and just as the music is briefly back on my cell rings again.. Anastasia rolls her eyes discritely as she watchs the view of traffic on the road. This is irritating now.
"Grey." I snap again.
""Hi, Christian, d'you get laid?" the eagerness of my brothers voice makes me roll my eyes. Typical.
"Hello, Elliot – I'm on speaker phone, and I'm not alone in the car," I sigh.
"Who's with you?" again I roll my eyes, fucking who do you think Elliot. Christ.
"Anastasia Steele."
"Hi, Ana!"
"Hello, Elliot."
"Heard a lot about you." Elliot murmurs huskily. I frown; remembering the slightly brief conversation we had the other day over some girl I wanted to see. Miss Kavanagh must have filled him in on her roommate.
"Don't believe a word Kate says." She words rushed as Elliot laughs.
"I'm dropping Anastasia off now, Shall I pick you up?" I ask.
"Sure."
"See you shortly." I hang up and the music is back on. We are almost at her apartment, I fight the urge to slow down.

"Why do you insist on calling me, Anastasia?"
"Because it's your name." I reply sounding sort of confused by the slightly obvious question. And I like the way it rolls of my tongue as I say it. Thou I would prefer if I could scream it.
"I prefer Ana."
"Do you now?" I murmur. I sit deep in thought over name's I'd rather call her, but I'm getting a bit carried away. The Elevator… It can't happen like that again. She needs the NDA signed and the contract she needs to know what she's getting in for… I don't do the relationship stuff… I'm definitely not a hearts and flowers type of man. If she wants me, she has to have me this way and this way only.

"Anastasia," I muse. She scowls at me, and I ignore her expression. "What happened in the elevator – it won't happen again, well, not unless it's premeditated."

I pull up outside the duplex to her apartment, hoping she doesn't question how I know where she lives. I pull the car to a halt, though as I'm close to saying goodbye until this evening, I want to kiss her again. No, Grey. Papers need to be signed. She needs to know what your live entails. Christ. I climb out of the car, walking rather at easy round to her door and like a gentleman open it wide. Her legs drop to the floor first before she lifts her behind out from the car. She does it with beauty, with grace. Oh Ana... I'm retrospectively frustrated.

"I liked what happened in the elevator," she murmurs, I gasp slightly. I was not expecting her to say that. She walks past me and heads up the steps to the door.
As we walk in Elliot and Miss Kavanagh were sitting across from each other at the dining table. Miss Kavanagh smiles brightly at Anastasia. I follow Ana into the living area, whilst 'Kate' eyes me suspiciously.

"Hi Ana." Kate leaps and pulls Ana into a ridiculous bear hug, she briefly examines her at arms length and frowns... Whats wrong with her?
"Good Morning, Christian," Kate says, her tone a little hostile.
"Miss Kavanagh," I reply stiffly.
"Christian, her name is Kate," Elliot the Idiot grumbles.
"Kate." I say politely with a nod, before glaring at Elliot who grins and rises from his chair, pulling Ana into a hug. I don't like this, I don't like this, I don't like this...
"Hi, Ana," he smiles wide at her, his blue eyes twinkling with destruction. Thank god we're adopted.
"Hi, Elliot," she smiles back at him, then she bites down hard on her lower lip. Deliberately? Oh I'll smack you for doing that Miss Steele. I'll take you over that table in a minute if you don't let go. And I don't care who's watching...
But I can't... The document... Crap.
"Elliot, we'd better go." I say mildly.
"Sure." He turns to Miss Kavanagh and pulls her into his arms, giving her a long lingering kiss. I roll my eyes at the sight... Get a room. I fix my gaze on Anastasia intently. She narrows her eyes at me then they soften as a look saying kiss-me-like-that. Oh fuck sake!
Elliot continues to kiss Katherine, sweeping her off her feet into a dramatic hold that now her hair is sweeping the floor. He lets her go, back on her feet.
"Laters, baby," he grins at her, she just melts on the spot. Good Work Elliot.
I roll my eyes and stare back at Ana again, slightly amused by Ana's reaction. I reach out and tuck a strand of hair that has worked its way free from her ponytail behind her ear. Her breath hitches, she leans her head into my hand. I relax automatically; I trace my thumb along her lower lip. I feel her pulse accelerate in her body. Quickly I remove my hand.
"Laters, baby." I murmur slightly taking the mick out of Elliot, which doesn't seem like the effect and she slightly giggles which sounds amazing. "I'll pick you up at eight." I tell her before I walk out the already open door stepping out of the porch back into the new day. I breathe deeply before Elliot joins me. Fuck…. What is she doing to me… Tonight needs to happen! She has to sign.. She just has to.

All of a sudden Elliot the great is by my side grinning like a cat. "Good night?"
"Oh come on Chrissy, I don't kiss and tell." He winks before heading to the park Audi. Chrissy?
"Elliot, when have you not told anyone about your one night stands?" I eye him suspiciously. I open the car door and climb in, He slumps down on the passenger side and still smiling. "Well, thing is… I don't want this to just me another one night stand. I like her... She's very... domineering." Wait what?! He had my attention. Domineering?
"Really, well aren't you lucky." I say sullenly. I turned on the car and pulled out back towards the hotel.
"I really like her." He was suddenly serious, his face dead straight.
"I can tell." Sometimes I envy my older brother, having his feelings sorted out the way he wants h, me? I'm fifty shades of fucked up.

"So what about you, Bro? That Ana is fit!" I narrow my eyes at him; I really don't want to discuss this. Especially since I don't actually want a relationship like that. I want her to be my submissive. I want to spank Ana if she does something wrong. There will be no hearts and flowers.
"She's nice." I reply
"Nice? Did you fuck her last night?"
"No, Elliot I didn't. Christ sake, that all you ever think about?"
"No need to get your panties in a twist." He rolled his eyes and stared out of the passenger door window.
I ignore his presence and stare out at the road in front of me.

Before I know it we are back at the hotel, Elliot sleeping in the bedroom, whilst I pull out my Mac and get to work on the contract.

I've been sitting her for over an hour, and I can't type anymore, this pretty much sums up most of the stuff I have encountered with previous Subs…. I would really love Anastasia over my knee, my hand hot with the sting of the impact my hand had against her rear-end.

"Fancy a hike?" Elliots grins, holding up a rain jacket. I nod, glancing back at the screen on the mac, saving the contract and forwarding it my email address. As soon as the Mac has shut down my blackberry pings to alert me the contract has arrived.

The next few hours dragged on, as we climbed higher and higher into the forest, I became a lot more frustrated. Then before I know it, we are making our way back… With a simple change I alert Taylor to meet me at out front in 10 minutes. I change and walk past Elliot that seems to be smirking with an annoying comment of, 'don't do anything I wouldn't do.'

But now I'm here finally waiting in Clayton's car park, my fingers tapping effortlessly against my leg.

Then I see her.

Miss Anastasia Steele.

She makes her way over to the Audi as I climb out of the back seat, I open the car door widely as a grin flashes across my face.

"Good Evening, Miss Steele." I say.
"Mr Grey," she nods politely and climbs in the backseat, she glances to the front and noticed Taylor.

"Hello, Taylor," she says. I grimace slightly… please don't talk to staff Anastasia.
I hear Taylor's subtle reply and I climb in after her, I clash onto her hand giving it a slight squeeze, sending shivers through my body.
"How was work?" I ask.

"Very long," she replies, her voice sounds low and husky. Like she's hiding something. This journey needs to hurry the hell up.
"Yes, it's been a long day for me too." I say, sounding serious.
"What did you do?" she asks, well Anastasia, I drew up a contract between you and me, for yourself to become my Submissive.
"I went hiking with Elliot," I answer, I begin to stroke her knuckles with my thumb, her hands are so soft, her breath accelerates, her eyes widen.

The drive to the heliport is short, and before I know it we arrive. We're in a built-up area of the city. Taylor parks the audi, climbs out, and opens Anastasia's door. I climb out of the door and I'm at her side at an instant. Ana tenses beside me, "Ready?"

She nods.

"Taylor." I nod curtly, signalling the go ahead with tonight's events. I head to the building with Anastasia closely by my side, heading straight towards the elevators. This morning floats back to my memory, her tounge in my mouth, her sweet sweet breath. The feel of her body pressed up against mine.

I glance down at Ana her face is a picture, her cheeks are slightly blushed, I smile slightly at her. Same this is only a short trip to the helipad, though she needs to give her consent to be first.
"It's only three floors." I say dryly, her eyes are dancing with excitement, though she remains silent.

Is she nervous? Does she want to come back with me? Christ.

Her face is impassive as we enter the elevator. The door closes, and again there it is, the spark of electricity in the air pulling me closer to her. It's enslaving me, trapping me in a web of passion and deep lust between me and this girl. I grab onto Anastasia's hand gripping it tightly, hoping that somehow this immoral atmosphere will turn out into nothing, yet I feel a slight tingle in my hand where I'm holding onto her. Five seconds later the doors open wide to the roof of the building. Thank god.

And there she is, Charlie Tango all ready and waiting. A white EC135 Eurocopter. I lead me and Ana to a small office type where Joe McChanning is waiting with tonight's flight itinery. As we walk into the office, the old timer smiles up at us. "Here's your flight plan, Mr. Grey. All external checks are done. It's ready and waiting sir. You're free to go."
"Thank you, Joe." I smile warmly back at him.
"Let's go," I tell Ana waiting paitently at my side, we make our way towards the helicopter. Once we get there I open the door, and point to the seat at the front.
"Sit- don't touch anything," I order as I clamber in after her.
I shut the door with a slam. Anastasia sits down in her allotted seat, and I crouch beside her to strap her into the harness. I tighten both of the upper straps, only enough for to move slightly. As I pull the last harness tighter a pleasure is sent straight down to my groin. I concentrate on what I'm doing, trying to distract myself from how turned on I am. If I could only lean forward a little, to run my mouth along her jaw, to bite hard down on her lips. Mentally I shake my head clear of distractions I glance back at Ana and smile, pulling on one of the upper straps.

"You're secure, no escaping," I whisper, my eyes wide. She holds her breath. "Breathe, Anastasia." I add softly. I reach up, and caress her cheek, I run my finger down her chin, then tightly grasp it between my thumb and finger, pressing both tightly together, I love strapping you in Anastasia… you can't run away from me… I want you so much. I lean forward and plant a brief, chaste kiss on her lips, leaving me reeling for more. My lip tingling with an unusual sensation, which I felt in the elevator.
"I like this harness," I whisper, more to myself than to Ana. I want to tie her up, and pleasure her more than I've pleasured anyone in my life, even Elena or Sophie.

Breaking the spell, for now, I sit beside her. Buckling myself into the seat. I begin a protracted procedure of checking gauges and flipping switches and buttons from the array of dials and lights and switches on the control deck.
"Put your cans on," I say pointing in front of me towards the headphones. She puts them on, and I ensemble mine. Nerves lying in the pit of my stomach. I continue to prepare Charlie Tango for take off. "I'm just going through all the pre-flight checks." She turns towards me and grins. Please sign…
"Do you know what you are doing?" her eyebrow slightly raised, staring at me awkwardly. Wait, What? I turn and smile at her, "I've been a fully qualified pilot for four years, Anastasia, you're safe with me." I give her a half wolfish grin. Oh Anastasia, just you wait.. baby. "Well, while we're flying," I add and wink at her. "Are you ready?" Wide eyed, she nods.

"Okay, tower. PDX this is Charlie Tango Golf – Golf Echo Hotel, cleared for take-off. Please confirm, over."
"Charlie Tango –you are clear. PDX to call, proceed to one four thousand, heading zero one zero, over."
"Roger tower, Charlie Tango set, over and out." I turn to Ana "Here we go," I add, Charlie Tango slowly and smoothly lifts into the air.

In a matter of minutes Portland disappears in front of us as we head into the US Airspace, I love this feeling flying through the air, the complete power of rising higher and higher, as the city below disappears from sight as all of the lights and lamps form one large picture below. In a matter of minutes there is nothing to see, I glance to the compass to follow direction.
"Eerie isn't it?"
"How do you know you're going the right way?"
"Here." I point to the compass in front of me, "This is an EC135 Eurocopter. One of the safest in its class. It's equipped for night flight." I grin again at her. "There's a helipad on top of the building I live in. That's where we're heading."

I draw my attention to the dial in front of me, though I keep thinking what would happen tonight, will she run when she knows what kind of monster I am. I want to fuck her brains out, do all sorts to her. I shake of my thoughts and try and bring up conversation. "When you fly at night, you fly blind. You have to trust the instrumentation,"
"How long will the flight be?" Does she sound anxious… frustrated? Oh Ana baby, I know you want me.
"Less than an hour, the wind is in our favor." Less than an hour, until she knows the truth… Less than an hour for she could officially be mine. Ana's breath hitches, like she's having a panic attack.
"You okay, Anastasia?"
"Yes." I smile slightly at her nerves. I flick a switch on the dashboard, nearly there.

"PDX this is Charlie Tango now at one four thousand, over."
"Understood Sea-Tac, standing by over and out."

"Look, over there." I point to a small pin-point of light in the far distance. "That's Seattle."
"Do you always impress women this way? Come and fly in my helicopter?" She asks teasing me, though presenting herself as interested.
"I've never brought a girl up here, Anastasia. It's another first for me." I say seriously. After a brief moment I ask, "Are you impressed?"
"I'm awed Christian." I smile, Awed huh? That's good.
"Awed?" I question, my eyes rising with somewhat delight.

She nods, "You're just so…. Competent."
"Why, thank you, Miss Steele," I reply slightly pleased.

We ride into the dark night in silence for a while. The bright spot that is Seattle is slowly getting into view. "Sea-Tac tower to Charlie Tango. Flight plan to Escala in place. Please proceed. And standby. Over."
"This is Charlie Tango, understood Sea-Tac. Standing by, over and out."
"You obviously enjoy this," Ana murmurs.
"What?" I glance towards her, slightly puzzled.
"Flying," she replies.
"It requires control and concentration…. How could I not love it? Though, my favourite is soaring."
"Soaring?"
"Yes. Gliding to the layperson. Gliders and Helicopters – I fly them both."
"Oh." What did I say? Something wrong.. Doubtful.. It's my only hobbies. Well…

"Charlie Tango come in please, over." The disembodied voice of air traffic control interrupts my thoughts.
"Charlie Tango here, over."

Seattle is getting closer. We are on the very outskirts now. It's a stunning view, Seattle in the night sky especially with Anastasia sitting beside me. "Looks good doesn't it?" I murmur. Ana nods enthusicastically.
"We'll be there in a few minutes," I mutter this is it.

"Charlie Tango, to Sea-Tac preparing to land, over."
"All clear, Charlie Tango. Proceed. Over."

We are now flying amongst the buildings, up ahead I see Escala. It's getting nearer and nearer, bigger and bigger…. Just like my anxiety. I grip the stirring wheel tighter. Please don't run.

We hover over the skyscraper Escala as I bring Charlie Tango to a halt, I set her down slowly on the helipad safely. I switch of the ignition and the rotor blades slow and quite until all I hear is the sound of Ana's erratic breathing. I take off my cans, and reach across to take Ana's off aswell.
"We're here," I say softly.
I stare at her intensly, my jaw clenched and eyes tight. Time to face the music. I unfasten my seat belt then reach over to unbuckle Miss Steele from Charlie Tango's clenches. I feel her warm breath on my cheek, my face literally only inches away from hers.
"You don't have to do anything you don't want to do. You know that don't you?" I say desperately, taking her by surprise.
"I'd never do anything I didn't want to, Christian." She answers confidently.
I eye her warily for a moment, make sure she is being truthful, then edge my way out of Charlie Tango. I jump out, waiting for Ana to follow. I take her hand as she clambers down onto the helipad. It's very windy on top of the building, so I wrap my arm round her shoulders bringing Miss Steele closer to my body.
"Come." I shout above the noise of the wind. I drag her over to the elevator shaft tapping in the security code to reach the penthouse, and the doors open. Inside it's warm, each area full of glass, reflecting our bodies everywhere you look. She has an incredible ass. I tap in another code, which brings the elevator to descend down into the lobby of the penthouse.

Moments later, we arrive into the foyer. It's all white, plain and simple, with a round, dark wood table in the center of the room. On the walls are paintings everywhere. My favourites really. I open the two double doors in front of us, into a wide corridor following us into the main living area. The far wall is glass which then leads to a balacany overviewing Seattle.
To the right is an imposing 'U' shaped sofa that could sit possibly ten people on, and though I guess I've never really had many people in here before… Always a first for everything.
"Can I take your jacket?" I ask Anastasia. She shakes her head completely mesmoried by my apartment. Though it's nothing really it's just a home.
"Would you like a drink?" Cause I could really use one. She just stares blinking at me. "I'm going to have a glass of white wine, would you like to join me." I ask again.
"Yes, please." She murmurs.

I go over to the wine cooler in the kitchen leaving Ana, I remove my jacket and leave it on the couch, and produce a bottle of Pouilly Fume, I grab the bottle opener from the draw and begin to pull the stork out.
"Pouilly Fume okay with you?" I ask Ana who is now waiting at the kitchen counter opposite me.
"I know nothing about wine, Christian. I'm sure it will be fine." Her voice is soft but hesitant, like she is unsure if she wants to be here.

I pour two large glasses and walk round and hand her a glass. "Here." The wine is light, crisp and delicious. Why is she so quiet.
"You're very quiet, and you're not blushing. In fact –I think this is the palest I've ever seen you, Anastasia." I murmur. "Are you hungry?"
She shakes her head, "It's a very big place you've got here."
"Big?"
"Big."
"it's big," I simply agree, though.. not really.. perhaps it could be slightly bigger, but it'll do. My eyes are trained on her, simply amused with the small talk.
She takes another sip of the wine and points to the piano at the corner of the room, " Do you play?"
"Yes."
"Well?"
"Yes."
"Of course you do. Is there anything you can't do well?"
"Yes… A few things." Like figuring you out for one, Miss Steele. I take another sip of my wine, never taking my eyes of her. She turns and glances around the room once more.
"Do you want to sit?"
She nods, I take her hand in mine, leading her to the white couch in the living area. As she sits her eyes widen and a huge grin plasters on her face with slight amusement.
"What's so amusing?" I sit beside her, angling my body her way. I rest my head in my right hand, with my elbow propped up against the top of the sofa.
"Why did you give me Tess of the D'Urbervilles specifically?" she asks. I just stare at her for a moment.
"Well, you said you liked Thomas Hardy."
"Is that the only reason?" I could hear the disappointment in her voice, my mouth presses into a hard line.
"It seemed appropriate. I could hold you to some impossibly high ideal like Angel Clare or debase you completely like Alec D'Urberville," I murmur, my eyes concentration on her dangerously.

"If there are only two choices, I'll take the debasement." She whispers, Right then. I gasps. She bites down hard on her bottom lip, sending pleasures of delight and frustration throughout my body..
"Anastasia, stop biting your lip, please. It's very distracting. You don't know what you're saying."
"That's why I'm here." Right yes of course, I'm here to explain it to her. I frown, knowing the truth and what's about to happen.
"Yes. Would you excuse me a moment?" I get up and disappear from Ana's view, I let out a deep sigh as I enter my office.

I go over to my printer and pick up the Non-Disclosure agreement, Andrea has faxed over. A couple of minutes later I return with the document and pen in hand.
"This is an non-disclosure agreement." I shrug, slightly embarrassed. "My lawyer insists on it." I hand it over to her, looking completely bemused. "If you're going for option two, debasement, you'll need to sign this."
"And If I don't sign anything?"
"Then it's Angel Clare high ideals, well, for most of the book anyway."
"What does this agreement mean?"
"It means you cannot disclose anything about us. Anything, to anyone." I'm gonna need it for what I'm about to show you Miss Steele.
"Okay, I'll sign." I hand her a pen. I frown slightly.
"Aren't you even going to read it?"
"No."
I frown again.
"Anastasia, you should always read anything you sign," I admonish her.

"Christian, what you fail to understand us that I wouldn't talk about us to anyone, anyways. Even Kate. So it's immaterial whether I sign an agreement or not. If it means so much to you, or your lawyer… whom you obviously talk to, then fine. I'll sign." I gaze at her, could she possibly be real, so much knowledge for someone so young. I nod gravely.
"Fair point well made, Miss Steele."
She lavishly signs on the dotted lines of both copies and hands one back to me. She folds the other and places it in her purse, then takes a large swig of her wine.
"Does this mean you're going to make love to me tonight, Christian?" My mouth drops slightly. That was well out of the blue.
"No, Anastasia it doesn't. Firstly I don't make love. I fuck… hard. Secondly, there's a lot more paperwork to do, and thirdly, you don't yet know what you're in for. You could still run for the hills. Come, I want to show you my playroom." Her mouth drops open. I want to fuck you so badly, Miss Steele. But you need to know what you are getting yourself in for.
"You want to play on your Xbox?" she asks. I laugh loudly, ha is she serious?
"No, Anastasia, no Xbox, no Playstation. Come." I stand once again, holding out my hand, hoping she'd take it. She clasps onto my hand as I lead her through the corridor. Taking a right I lead her through a door which brings us to a staircase, I lead her up to the second floor and turn right. As we reach the door outside the room, I produce a key from my pocket, I unlock the door and take a deep breath… This is it… Now or never, Grey. Prepare yourself.

"You can leave anytime. The helicopter is on stand-by to take you whenever you want to go, you can stay the night and go home in the morning. It's fine whatever you decide." My words come out in a rush, I'm slightly panicking with her reaction.
"Just open the damn door, Christian."

I open the door wide and take all my courage I stand back to let her in; she gazes at me once more. She takes a deep breath and walks in. Shit.
