Ana POV

Aaaagh I feel like shit. These fucking punks had their music on the whole night. O shit that is my phone ringing. I reach over to my side table and pick it up without even checking the call id.

"Hello"

"Ana I am so sorry to wake you up at this time of the morning but it is an emergency." That got me up an alert. Jose never calls me when he need help so this is serious.

"Jose its ok I was not really asleep. What's wrong?"

" The head chef at the Mile High Club has just quit and the manager is in a bit of a pickle because now they have to shut down."

"Ok but what has that got to do with me?"

"Well, I kind of offered him your services. But you would have to come in and show him what you can do, then if he is happy with your work he will hire you." I am so stunned right now that my brain is stuck.

"Ana are you still there? Did you hear what I just said?"

"Sorry, yes I heard but I still can't believe it. When must I come in?"

"Right now Ana. If all goes well your first shift will start at 8am this morning. So be quick and get your ass over hear."

"Done I will see you in 20 minutes outside the club. Thank you Jose you are the best."

"See you soon. And don't thank me. That is what friends are for now hurry up."

Shit this does not even feel real. Could it be possible that by later today I could be the head chef at the Mile high club. At least I have one advantage. When Jose was applying for the pastry chef job, him and I worked our asses off memorizing the menu and perfecting it. I can create there entire menu with my eyes closed. So I actually don't see a problem with me impressing the manager. Shit I have to hurry. I scramble out of bed and grab my blue washed our bootleg jeans with a tank top and a red echo hoody. This I pair with my comfy cooking red converse takkies and run out the door.

The club is 12 blocks away and I have to walk there. It's so quiet on the streets at this time that it's actually scary. I keep up a steady pace and watch my surroundings. I just have this funny feeling like something is going to happen.

Christians POV

Shit another sleepless night. These nightmares seem to be much worse when I have a stressful day. I glance at the clock and its past 12. I know I can't go back to sleep so I call up my security guard Taylor and tell him I am going for a run. I quickly grab a track suit and running takkies and leave my room. Taylor is already at the elevator waiting for me. I nod at him and we leave.

We start out at a steady pace towards my club. I needed to run to clear my head from all the shit Elliot is putting on my plate. What the fuck was he thinking? I have no idea. The fools do not realize that they can not keep secrets from me. I know everything. He should have called me the minute Ralf quit his job, but no the idiot decided to handle it himself. So guess what? I am leaving him to squirm for now. He needs to learn a good lesson in business. To make things even more fun I have booked the private dining room out for my lunch with Elena. Lets see how he is going to explain to me why I cant have a meal in my own club. As Taylor and I round the corner near the club we both come to a complete stop and just stare at the scene playing out in front of us.

Taylor POV

Fuck the boss has really got a lot of shit on his mind today. We never run this early in the morning unless he is feeling out of control. I know it has something to do with his club not opening tomorrow. The papers are going to go crazy with their reviews and assumptions. I can just see the head lines, ' Seattle most exclusive club bankrupt" such a joke. As we round the corner the boss stops dead in his tracks and I nearly run straight into his back. He is staring at a fight between a huge guy and a kid. It seems like the guy is trying to mug the boy. I move my body in front of the boss to protect him. Just before I react to help the kid out he makes his move. I and am shocked when the kid body slams the guy into the pavement then runs off into the dark.

Ana POV

As I round the corner I notice the fool who is going to try to mug me. As he moves to grab me I manage a right fist to his jaw. He tries to grab my neck and I swing myself around and elbow him in the groin. He doubles over and I use all my body weight and throw him over my shoulder into the pavement. This fool is not going any ware soon. So I sprint off to the club. Out of the corner of my eye I notice my little audience. A military looking dude with a buzz cut looking like he is going to attack at any moment and a sexy as hell man standing behind him looking shocked. I didn't have time to stay and chat so I carry on running.

I make it to the club and Jose is standing waiting for me like he said he would.

"Hey Ana you made it."

"Yup I did. Hi Jose."

"Ana what happened to your head?" I reach up and realize I have a cut on my fore head from the creep earlier.

"I was attacked on my way here but I managed to put the guy on his ass and get here. I will be fine."

"I am so sorry. I should have collected you. Come let me clean your head and bandage it up for you." We go up to the top and he sits me in the kitchen and cleans my head. Its just a gash and I might not need stitches. I can't deal with this now. I have to cook first and then I will go to the emergency room. Jose shows me were everything is and I loose myself cooking up a storm.

Christian POV

Fuck that was so fast one moment the kid was being attacked and the next the big guy was lying on the ground out cold. As the kid turned and looked at us I resized it was a woman and a very attractive one at that. I am completely shocked.

"Taylor did you realize that was a girl who dropped that guy on his ass."

"Yes, sir I just realized that. She is one brave young women."

"What the hell is she doing roaming the streets at this hour by herself?"

"Sir with all due respect this is not our business. If she want to walk around she can."

"Taylor I don't care what you say find out who she is. She is hurt I saw the cut on her head."

"Yes sir I will get Welch to check the streets security cameras and track her sir."

"Thank you Taylor now let's get back home so I can get ready for the office. Don't forget my lunch meeting at the Mile High club at 1."

"Booked already sir. Lets go."

I don't know why it's bugging me about this girls safety but it is. I am feeling very restless not knowing if she is ok or not. She is fucking strong to have thrown that guy over like that. I actually felt like ripping his throat out when he grabbed her. Fuck I need to pull myself together I don't even know this girl. We get to the pent house and I go straight into the shower.
