Ana padded to the door furrowing her brow at the sound of the knock. It was Wednesday evening and she hadn't been expecting anyone. She peeked through the hole seeing a delivery man.

"May I help you?" she asked after opening the door.

"I have a delivery for Anastasia Steele," he said as he read her name from the electronic device in his hand.

"From whom?" she asked intrigued.

"A delivery from the Food Lifeline organization," the man read from the device.

"Okay," she said puzzled as she allowed the man to bring in the package.

"Sign here please, ma'am" the man said as he extended the electronic device towards her.

Ana quickly scrawled her name out then bid the man goodbye. Scratching her head she turned and looked at the package propped against the wall. Ana was surprised upon opening it to find the painting she had been admiring at the charity function. She pulled the painting out of the box looking for something that said who had purchased it, but there was nothing. Ana wondered if it had been Nicholas that had sent it to her. He had come up to her while she was admiring it and flirted with her. Ana smiled as she looked for a place to hang the painting.

The end of the week had come quickly for Ana. She had packed her bag Thursday evening for her trip with Jack Hyde to New York. She hoped agreeing to go on the trip would help her in the long run with her career. She knew she wouldn't be doing much but fetching coffee and taking notes during the meetings. However, she had to pay her dues in order to work her way up in the company. They were soon on their way to the airport and ready to board. Ana heard the familiar ping of her blackberry and knew immediately it was a message from Christian. He had messaged her earlier in the week extending an invitation for her to use his private jet. Ana had declined stating the tickets for the trip had already been purchased.

I really wish you would consider taking the jet to New York. It is ready if I can convince you to change your mind. I would never allow any one I care about to fly commercial. Another advantage is if you wish to leave early the jet would be available. Please reconsider Ana.

Ana rolled her eyes as she read the message. It's a good thing he doesn't care about me, she thought as she hit reply.

I'm already seated in my seat waiting for take-off. Thank you, but no thank you. I hope your weekend goes well.

Anastasia Steele

Ana gripped the seat tightly as the plane took off. It didn't matter how many flights she had been on the take offs always seemed to unnerve her. Ana was relieved that their tickets were for seats separated several rows apart. Ana had the window seat next to a couple not much older than herself. One they were gliding through the air Ana pulled a book from her carry on. Ana was soon dozing softly on the six hour long flight. Jack Hyde had been more than perturbed when he realized their seats were so far apart. He walked by her seat as he went to the bathroom and saw her sleeping soundly.

Ana and Jack had finally arrived in New York a little after three in the morning. Once they had gathered their luggage they hailed a cab. Ana was beyond tired as they finally made their way into the lobby of the hotel. Jack led Ana over to a chair and told her to wait while he got them checked in. Soon a bell boy was loading carrying the two suit cases leading them up to their rooms. Ana quickly stowed into the restroom once they made it to what Ana presumed to be her room. Jack and the Bell boy waited for her to get out of the bathroom.

"The bedroom is through their miss," the bell boy said as he showed her the room.

"Thank you, I'll take my bag."

"Of course miss," the man said as he handed her the bag.

"I'll see you at seven," Jack said as he went into the room shutting the door behind her.

Ana was too exhausted to take a shower. She peeled off her clothes and pulled on a long t-shirt then climbed into the bed. Ana fumbled for her phone setting her alarm. She figured six am would give her enough time to take a quick shower and be dressed for the day. Three hours wasn't going to be much sleep. Granted she did get about four hours of sleep on the plane, however uncomfortable they were. It wasn't long before Ana was lost in sleep. It really wasn't much longer than that when the alarm went off. Ana groaned as she shut it off and forced herself to sit up in the bed. It took her a moment to realize she was in a hotel room. Stretching she stood from the bed and located the lamp switching it on. Searching through her suitcase she found her pencil line skirt and blouse she had packed.

Ana stopped in her tracks as she opened the bedroom door and realized Jack Hyde was asleep on the foldout couch in the living room area. Jack stirred as the light flooded into the room from her room. Ana quickly went to the bathroom locking the door behind her. Why was he in her room? She would pay for her own room if need be, but she would not be spending the weekend rooming with Jack Hyde. Ana showered then dressed and styled her hair before leaving the bathroom.

"Good morning Ana," Jack said as he stood from the couch. Ana assumed he had put the bed away.

"Um why are you in my room?" she asked curiously.

"Sorry Ana the company added your approval after they had booked the room and the hotel is simply booked the entire weekend," he explained.

"Well perhaps they've had a cancellation. I'll pay for my room if that's the problem," Ana said as she walked past him.

"Nonsense Ana, we're both adults here and I think we can make it one weekend sharing close quarters," Jack laughed.

"I'd feel more comfortable in a separate room," Ana voiced before shutting the door to the bedroom area.

Christian was currently loosing himself in time with his sub. Normally he would think of nothing else but what he wanted to do to her and with her next. However, he kept finding his thoughts wandering back to Ana. She was beautiful, smart, funny, and over all stunning. One part of him kept nagging that he wanted to try her out in the play room; however an even bigger part chastised him for being dense. He knew Ana didn't have a submissive bone in her body and that was precisely the reason he was shocked by his attraction to her. Christian pushed his wandering thoughts deep down and made his way into the playroom. Not surprisingly the session was quite intense for Samantha. Christian took his confusion and anger at his feelings for Ana out on Samantha's creamy white skin. Once the session was over Samantha fled from the room needing time to get her own thoughts in order. Lately Christian had been so soft with her during their sessions. She had taken this as a sign that Christian wanted more with her. However, after this evening's session she knew things were different.

Samantha was grateful he gave her Saturday morning free. After the previous evening's events she wasn't ready to see Christian. She knew he would be there that evening ready for her participation so she was taking great care to tend to her backside. She was icing it again and also getting ready to take another dose of Advil. Samantha spent the rest of the day sleeping exhausted from the session.

Christian was giving Samantha a little break for the day. He hadn't intended to be so intense the previous night. He fully intended to be back in the red room that evening. Christian caught up on some work the rest of the day. He was just getting ready to stop working for a late lunch when his cell phone rang. Picking it up he was shocked to see who was calling his cell phone. He only stared at it a moment longer before answering it.

Ana and Jack finally made it back to the hotel about a quarter after six. Ana had immediately gone to the desk to see if there were any open rooms. The receptionist obliged the young woman looking, but found nothing just as she had told Ana there wouldn't be. Ana sulked back over to Jack and headed to the elevator with him. She figured she would use the phone book to find a reasonably priced hotel nearby once in the room. However, once they were back in the room Jack wasted no time cornering Ana.

"You know without me you wouldn't even have this internship," Jack said as he pushed her towards the dresser with his body coming ever closer to hers.

"Jack… I … I don't understand and I'll find a room elsewhere," she said as she edged backwards with every step he took towards her.

"Nonsense you'll stay right here and show me your appreciation," he sneered.

"I don't think you understand what you are saying. Jack please just let me go," she pleaded finally hitting the dresser unable to go further.

"Oh I understand perfectly what I'm saying," Jack insisted as he brought his hand up to stroke the side of her face.

Ana shuddered at the touch trying to pull her face away, "Please stop" she whimpered.

Jack brought his other hand up grasping her face then tried to pull it towards him so he could kiss her. Ana struggled, only to be over powered by Hyde. Ana's mind raced as thoughts flew through her mind. Slowly she brought her hands up and rested them on his arms. Jack smiled thinking she was conceding to him. However, soon he was groaning in pain as his hands flew to his groan and his eyes screwed shut. Ana grabbed her purse and phone and flew out of the room. Jack sat down as he tried to regain his regular breathing. That Bitch! He thought as he sat in pain on the edge of the couch.

Ana ran straight out of the room to the elevators. She rode the elevator down to the lobby then left the hotel quickly. She didn't know if Jack was following her or not, but she didn't want to take the chance. Soon Ana was wondering the streets of New York with no idea of where she was or where to go. She found a little coffee place and made her way inside ordering herself some English Twinning's breakfast tea. Ana sipped on her tea as tears slowly leaked out of her eyes. What was she going to do and where was she going to go? Ana was glad she had picked a back booth not facing anybody. Ana pulled her phone out her fingers shaking as she opened the contacts. She sobbed quietly as she scrolled through thinking about who the best person to call would be. Of course Christian Grey he would most certainly know New York City. Perhaps he could give her a suggestion of where to stay. Hell he'd probably get it all arranged so all she would need to do was hail a cab. Before she knew it she was hitting send and the phone was ringing.

"Hello?" Christian said into the phone sounding a little surprised.

"Christian," Ana sobbed not meaning to sound as helpless and distraught as she did.

"Ana what's wrong?" he asked sounding concerned.

"He tried to… well he…" Christian cut her off.

"Did that bastard hurt you?" Christian snapped into the phone.

"No… no he tried, but I got away. I just don't know where to go and I'm scared," she confessed.

"Where are you now?" he asked concern dripping from his voice.

"I don't know I just ran until I found a little coffee place," she said.

"Stay there I'm going to make some arrangements and then I will call you back. Just don't leave the coffee place Ana," Christian ordered.

"Thank you Christian," she breathed into the phone.

It wasn't long before Christian called her back telling her to take a cab to the Mercer Hotel. Christian explained he had booked a room for her and that all she needed to do was give her name to reception. Ana thanked him profusely genuinely grateful for his help. She knew she was going to be out of a job at SIP and was actually happy she had her other source of income to fall back on for a while. Ana left the coffee shop and hailed a cab. Soon she was settling into the suite Christian had procured for her. She was startled when her cell phone began to ring. It was Jack Hyde and she definitely wasn't answering that so she hit ignore. It wasn't long before her phone was ringing again signaling Jack Hyde was trying to find her. She switched the phone off and climbed under the blankets in the large comfortable bed.
