A/N: Thanks for the reviews. Got so many ideas and this time I have written them down so now I won't forget. Just to remind you all, for those who have forgotten, I am from the UK so I am doing my best to use the American terms and names for things. I hope you enjoy this chapter.
A few weeks have been by and nothing has been heard from Hyde which is making everyone jumpy. Now that Christian has his cast finally off he has been more demanding. His first order to everyone was to stay at Escala. With me being so close to the due date he wants me close to the hospital. His second order was that I remain in the bedroom till he finishes the final security details.
So here I am. Laying on the bed reading a book waiting for him. I can only imagine him coming in here and dominating me. We both need to feel each other close. It feels like forever since we last had sex. Just the thought makes me tingle all over.
"You're biting that lip." Christian's voice creeps into my ears. Releasing my lip from the grip of my teeth I turn my head to him, now propped up on an elbow facing me. He moves a lock of hair off my face and behind my ear.
"What are you thinking?" He asks, with a smirk splayed out on his lips.
"Just wondering how long it has been since we last had sex." I say shyly. I really don't know why I am still shy about sex with him. I mean we have done everything under the sun!
"It feels like years to me. That is why I have ordered everyone to leave us alone." He replies. He jumps off the bed and starts undressing. His jacket slides off his broad shoulders with such ease. He then un-does his tie and drops it to the floor, then moves to his top shirt button. God this man has got me so hot and bothered and he hasn't even touched me. My eyes are glued to him. His pants strain from his hard on. Dropping his shirt on the floor he loosens his belt and crawls up the bed to me till he is nose to nose with me.
"That lip, Mrs Grey." He breathes, then I feel his teeth pulling at my lip. A moan escapes me and I can't do anything but kiss him. Pulling him down to me he quickly turns us so I'm on top of his lap. He slowly sits up and starts to undress me. Our lips pulled together like a magnet. Christian lifts my top over my head and tosses it to the floor with the rest of his clothes.
His lips move to my neck as I claw my way into his hair. The further down he goes the more sensitive I become. My head drops back as he reaches my breasts. With one finger he pulls the cup down the free my breast then his lips are on my nipple. I have never been this sensitive before and it's driving me insane already. I pull his head back and he groans. His eyes are laced with lust and I can't fight this natural urge to devour him. Our tongues go into all out war. He un-clasps my bra and I scurry to get it off.
"Slow down, baby."
"But Christian..."
"Slow down. I'm in no rush."
"But..!"
"I'm just as horny as you but I want to savour you. Although I am enjoying you devouring me to the ends of the earth." He smirks and laughs. I smile back and this time kiss him with time.
My hands make their way to his trousers and I un-do his zip. We both move around so he can slide them off and I move off the bed to make quick work of my trousers and panties. Standing at the end of the bed I get nervous really quickly. I look to Christian and he's laying there with his impressive erection in his hand.
"You are one mighty fine sight to see, Mrs Grey." He says in such a seductive way. He kneels up and crawls to me, reaching for my hands he pulls me close. Taking my lips with his as he lays me back on the bed. He pushes my legs apart with his knees, his hands massaging my breasts. My hands move up his arms and round to his back. My left hand moves to his hair as my right goes down to his fine, toned backside.
"Someone seems needy." He says playfully.
"Look whose talking." I reply, my right hand pushing him closer as best as I can.
"Careful. We don't want to disturb Blip."
" Don't worry he's fast asleep." I add. Christian captures my lips once more and slowly, ever so slowly sinks into me with no warning.
"You're so ready for me, baby." He says. I moan as he goes deeper and deeper.
"Let me hear you." He whispers.
"Christian!" I can't help but call out. Pushing my legs wider, Christian starts a gentle rhythm and picks up his pace. Our breathing becomes ragged and in sync. Our fingers twine together and my hips start to move as well.
"Oh fuck! Ana!" Christian calls out as we both start to climb higher and higher. I can feel our pace quickening and I'm climbing higher and higher till I can take no more. We call out each other's names as we fall off the edge together.
As our breathing calms down, Christian leans his forehead against mine and kissing my whole face. I can't help but giggle. It was only a few weeks ago that he was closed off, and now he's so loving and caring.
"I missed this." He breathes against my neck. He pulls out of me and I wince a little. It's been a while longer than I thought. Christian lays on his side of the bed on his back and I turn and rest my head on his shoulder as best as I can with my bump in the way.
"Christian I want to go to SIP today and see how things are going."
"But, Ana..."
"Please? I've only focused on you and getting you better. I haven't seen nor heard about anything from work."
"Ok. But I'm coming with you. I'll phone ahead. Prepare them."
"Prepare them for what?"
"That you are going over and are to be looked after. I won't mention myself as I like to keep them on their toes. Especially one person in particular." He smirks.
"Oh? And who might that be, Mr Grey?"
"Just the sexiest woman on this planet." He replies then starts kissing me once more and we are lost.
"Ana. Taylor and Sawyer are waiting downstairs with the car." Christian informs me as he walks into the bedroom. I'm sitting on the plush stool in the walk-in trying to choose the most comfortable shoes.
"Baby? What are you doing?"
"I'm trying to pick the most comfortable shoes that don't look horrible."
"Hmm." He rubs his chin then walks to the far corner of the walk-in and pulls out a pair of flat dolly like shoes.
"These should work." He slips them on for me and wow they are comfy. My feet are so swollen it's embarrassing.
"Thank you." I say, leaning forward as best as I can and kiss him.
"No problem. Now let's get going. I want to get back in good time to get some work done and then we can relax." He holds his hands out for me to take and leads me through the apartment.
"When Blip is born would we be going back home? To the sound I mean?"
"Of course. It's safer there for him. Plus. We could call this out love nest." He chuckles. I giggle along in agreement. Yes a love/fuck nest.
"Enough with the giggling, as much as I love it, you're the one who wants to check on things."
"Ok. Ok."
We descend down to the garage, which has now finally been finished. It looks better. Christian says the security has improved and we have our own private section, which is better for getting away from the paps.
Christian helps me into the back of the SUV. These cars are big but not big enough for pregnant women. With only a week left I should be resting but I want to get out more than ever right now. Sitting around is not my thing.
The drive to SIP was quick. Traffic was quiet and Christian was telling me all about the improvements that have occurred at GEH. As if it wasn't doing good before, now...well I didn't think things could get any better. Staff have upped their games since Christian has hardly been in. With most companies it would be the other way round.
We pull up out the front of SIP and Christian is quick to help me out. Taylor is watching his back. Sawyer is waiting to go park the car. With Hyde still out there Taylor, being the more experienced, is to keep guard of both of us, and apparently me especially but then again I am heavily pregnant.
"Come on, Mrs Grey. Don't want you on your feet too long."
"I'll agree with you there." I chuff to myself. Sawyer drives off to park the car while Christian leads me into the building. I can sense that Taylor is on edge. Maybe something has happened? Great now I am going to worry.
"Mr and Mrs Grey. How wonderful to see you." A young girl greets us. "My name is Zoe. I started a few weeks ago to assist Claire."
"Oh. It's wonderful to meet you too." I reply holding my hand out for her to shake. I look up to Christian and I know he is suspicious of her already. Good thing she's blonde.
We walk up to my office, receiving a lot of 'hellos' and 'you look wonderful, Ana'.
"I'm a hippo how can I look wonderful?"
"You like mighty fine to me, Mrs Grey."
"Yeah, yeah." I playfully slap his arm and he chuckles.
"Ana! How good to see you." Hannah chimes, jumping up from her desk.
"Good afternoon, Mr Grey." She smiles sweetly. Christian just nods. How rude.
"It's good to see you too, Hannah. How have things been?" I ask. Christian leads me to the small sofa area and wonders off. I catch a glimpse of Sawyer standing watch over me by the main door. Taylor has gone with Christian, no doubt.
"Things have been very busy without you here, Ana. But we've managed. If you hadn't taken on so many manuscripts when you went on maternity leave we would have gone downhill."
"I'm sure you would have done fine. You're the best assistant I've ever had, well my first and hopefully my only."
"Thank you, Ana. So when are you due?"
"We're told sometime next week maybe."
"So close. Are you excited?"
"Very. I hate sitting around doing nothing. Annoying thing is when I was in my early trimesters I was tired all the time now I have so much energy that bursts out of nowhere that I can't sit still."
"Well as long as you are looking after yourself." She laughs.
"Christian definitely has that covered." I add. At that moment Blip decides to do a dance on my bladder.
"Excuse me, Hannah. A little someone is dancing around and I need to use the rest room."
"Of course. Do you want me to make you some tea?"
"That sounds lovely, thank you. I'm sure I'll be here longer than planned seeing as my husband has now disappeared without a word." I laugh. I walk in the direction of the ladies and point to its direction to Sawyer so he knows where I am. He replies with only a nod.
I've missed this place more than I realised. It's so busy at the moment. More people have been hired from the looks of things. I wonder if I could get away with taking some work home, take a bit of pressure off everyone.
After relieving myself, I go to wash my hands. I am surprised to find that it has been refurbished. It's so much cleaner and the flowers are so lovely. Just as I dry off my hands I hear loud gun shots from outside. I instinctively drop to the floor from panic and cover my bump. Seconds later, Sawyer is running in.
"Ana!" He looks round then sees me on the floor. I can tell he sees my fear as he comes to me calmly and kneels in front of me.
"Come on, let's get you two safe."
"Where's Christian?" I ask with worry.
"He's with Taylor. He'll be fine. Come on let's go." He helps me from the floor and drapes his jacket around me and tucks me under his arm.
As we exit the restroom we make a quick move for the elevator. Sawyer frantically pushes the call button, waiting for the elevator to arrive.
I hear another shot fired and this time the wall near us is hit. Sawyer pulls me down to cover. He draws his gun and shoots at whoever is firing back.
"Ana. Go down there." He nods his head for the service stairs. "I'll be fine. Now go!" He orders and I go. I go as fast as I can. I stop to catch my breath, rubbing my bump, as if comforting Blip. I carry on down at a slower pace, it doesn't sound as if anyone is coming down this way. I can never have a easy life with Christian. Even during pregnancy! I pull out my phone and call Christian but it keeps going straight to voice mail.
I reach the ground floor and run out to reception. I notice a guard is lying in the middle of the floor unconscious. I go over to him and try to find a pulse, noticing he has a gun on him.
"Hello, sweet, innocent, Anastasia Grey." That voice! "You look like you're about to pop." He adds smugly. I stay kneeling on the floor covering my bump. Turning my head I see Jack Hyde pointing a gun at me. His face is full of disgust and anger. He smells so bad. When was the last time he had a wash, or was sober. I turn my head to grab some clean air.
"What do you want Jack?" I ask, looking anywhere but at him. I must distract him so Sawyer can catch up.
"Oh, Ana. What I've always wanted." He starts with a smug smile then it drops to hatred. "Greys money. His life. Everything he owns I want it. Even his kid."
"But why?" My arms circle more around Blip.
"Why? Why? It should have been me! The Greys should have chosen me not him! He was giving his life on a platter. I had to go through it the hard way! And again, because of him I am down in the gutters!" He yells.
"And you think taking everything from him will come out good for you in the end?"
"Worth a try!" He yells again.
"Ana!" I hear Christian calling my name, then he runs in. From the look on his face he has seen the gun pointed in my direction.
"Hyde you piss of..." Hyde points the gun at him.
"Ah, ah, ah. I don't think so. I'm gonna take everything from you. Your money, your business, your wife then the kid. Once the kid is born I'll kill her and raise it as my own." He goes on. The thought of him near my child sickens me. I notice Christian slowly moving forward. While Hyde is faced away from me I reach for the guards gun.
Déjà Vu!
By going into the guards pocket something falls out and catches Hyde's attention to which he turns the gun back on me.
"What do you think you're doing?" Before I have time to reply Christian pounces in him. Sending him down to the ground but Hyde stands right back up. Each of them lay blows on the other but Hyde looks worse. I can't take this. This is all because of me! Again!
"Christian! Stop!" I yell, my eyes closed, fists clenched. I hate seeing him this way. But he's not stopping. Hyde has turned him into something I have never seen before. His eyes filled with an emotion I have never seen before.
"Christian!" I yell again. Hyde drops to the ground, then he crawls to his fallen gun and points it at me. My eyes wide. I know this is it. The tables have turned. I lift the gun beside me and all I know is that I hear a gun shot.
