I'm honored to have so many views and follows it just warms my heart. Currently battling a nasty flu bug so may or may not be able to update as much depends on how much this thing kicks my ass. Im not really into the vampire thing either but I always envisioned him as a vampire and I often write short stories about vampires but they haven't been posted so I guess I sort of am into vampires. I will be honest this has so far been the hardest chapter to write as I'm not really good with writing with male point of views but for now it has to happen.

Be kind and please review.

Christian's POV

I paced relentlessly around my penthouse trying to get her out of my head ever since she left. I haven't been this affected by a girl in so long and it was quite unnerving. Nothing had satisfied me since she left my office Andrea tried to keep my focused on my appointments but I just made her reschedule them there was no way I could handle being in a room with other people right now.

I could always call Elena I know she would come over in a heart beat and probably be able to satisfy me maybe even bring something to eat. *NO she needs to learn her distance.* I stalk back to the piano and start to play.

"Sir Welch just faxed this over for you." Taylor said leaving a pile of papers on top of the piano.

I simply nod my head at him not bothering to say thanks or anything he knows it's there without me having to say it. Taylor was my right hand man, my driver and normally helped me keep my sanity. In return for his service I keep his daughter in a nice school, I got him the parenting rights he deserves from his evil ex-wife and kept him well dressed. I smiled as my thoughts wandered back to dressing Anastasia. *Maybe if I just see her again I can put her out of my mind for good, and it's not like I don't have her address now.*

I picked up the papers and head to my office. Gail left me with a wine glass full of chilled AB Negative my favorite I smile at her attempts to keep me happy it's not always easy working for someone like me, but I do make it worth her while.

I skim down the pages looking for what I wanted.

Name: Anastasia Rose Steele

Age: 21

DOB: September 10th, 1989 Montesano, WA

Current known address: 114 SW Green Street, Haven Heights, Vancouver, WA

*There it is* I smile *The rest can wait till later, I have to see her.* I take a big gulp of my drink to keep my fangs in their place and place the papers into a file already marked with her name. I head back out to the foyer, grabbing my suit coat and keys along the way "Don't wait up for me Taylor I'm just going to clear my head." I shout knowing he's already watching me leave on the CCTV.

I wait painfully for the elevator to take me to the garage level *Why is it whenever your expecting something it always seems to take twice as long to get it done*. I lean against the wall and debate if I really want to pursue her it could end badly for either one us, my secret could get out or she could end up really hurt or dead, but I have to get to know her.

*I wonder what she's doing about now? Is she safe? Did she make it home okay?* I look over the army of cars debating which one I haven't taken out in awhile and pick my favorite my black A8. I reeve the engine of my A8 and grip the steering wheel tighter. "Let's go." I say speeding out of my parking space waiting the painfully long 11 seconds for the doors to open.

The roads are clear as I speed my way towards Vancouver. I never was one to pursue someone I normally let Elena find me willing girls, or I went to a club and convinced them to come with me before I wiped their memories clean and sent them on their way. This was going to be different I could feel it.

I could always stay in Vancouver for awhile I could always check in on the agriculture department that I fund, and it will give me the ultimate excuse to see her more. *That's even if she wants to see you Grey.* I shake my head trying to rid myself of that thought of course she will want to see me I affected her too I know I did. The way her skin was flushed and the way her heart was beating making it sound like a delicate hummingbird.

I pulled up on the other side of her street and glanced up at her dark house. Hoping for a light to be on, footsteps or just about anything *Nothing not even a glimpse.* I throw my car back into drive and pull out of my parking space ready to head back to the safety of Escula where I should have stayed.

"Christian." The faintest of whispers barley there if you didn't have advanced hearing you wouldn't have heard it. I whip my head back in the direction of the house and stare. A light comes one and I hear another woman trying to wake her up Kate probably. There it is again the whisper of my name, and the pounding of her heart she screams now and it makes me wince. I want to go and confront her but that would be an awkward situation, one I wasn't ready for yet and matter of fact neither would see.

I waited till her heart calmed down enough and I knew she had gone back to sleep before I drove off towards the Heathman. I made up my mind I was staying an I was going to see her again tomorrow.

"Taylor please bring my laptop, and some clothes to the Heathman in Vancouver, I need to check up on the funding I do at the college I'm already headed there now."

"Yes sir, anything else?"

"The usual bottled stuff, that will be all." I snap, he knows me better enough not to have to ask but every time he still does, it's not like I can change what I am.

I pull up to the lobby an shove my keys at the valet "My driver will be here soon, oh and keep it out of the sun." I stalk my way into the lobby and I'm handed a room key to my already booked room.

I flop lazily onto the master bed and drift off into a dreamless state.
