Hello everyone,

I'm so sorry that I haven't been updating much but please be patient , I've had loads to get sorted for my second year of uni such as paying rent and bills as well as sorting out work and what not. I've tried to write as much as I can but writers block hit at one point and inspiration just didn't come.

However with the help of your lovely reviews I battled through and have now completed chapters 13 , 14 and 15 and will update again soon.

Once again this is not a cheating storyline but is a drama storyline

Hope you enjoy where I take this and let me know what you think through your reviews and comments

Leila's POV

"You know each other?" I keep my eyes locked on him as he nods to Aunty Elena. He can barley look at me and instantly my heart yearns for him once again.

It's been nearly three months since I last saw him, but he still visits me in my dreams, reaching out and taking me away from all the hurt in my world. He takes me away to his apartment and keeps me safe, keeps me protected from the lies and deceit that fill this horrid world.

But that's dream Christian. The man in front of me right now however is real life Christian and he looks absolutely furious. His bright grey eyes are alive with emotion as his breaths deeply, trying to calm himself. He's not the controlled man I remember but instead he looks scared and hesitant, its strangely unsettling and I find myself stepping away from him, causing him to raise a eyebrow in my direction. Finally Christian answers Aunty Elena's question, sending me a look which tells me to just follow what he says.

"Leila interviewed to work at my company and was perfect for the role but unfortunately I found someone else and I had to let her go" his eyes meet mine and I find myself nodding slowly, sending my aunt a small smile.

I'd forgotten how good he was at charming people, although Aunt Elena looks to be having none of it and suddenly she's staring at me with a look of pure horror. What the hell's up with her I wonder?

"You were his submissive weren't you? Oh Leila you stupid girl!" Christian gasps and narrows his eyes at my aunt but she just ignores me and waits for my reply. I look up at Christian , not knowing how he wants me to act , but he's not looking at me and instead seems highly interested in Aunt Elena's bedroom door , is he tired or something? I just nod at Aunt Elena, watching her whole body sink in on itself.

"When?" her voice is a low whisper and her eyes cloud over with hurt, why is she getting so emotional about this? I'm a grown woman for God sake! I can be with whoever I want and what I do with them is my business and mine alone.

"Elena you don't need to know the details" Christian is right back to his controlled persona, once again my heart pangs in memory of our time together. We were so right for each other and yet he left me, left me like everyone else has done.

"Yes I do Christian! Now tell me when this happened" her voice is cold and demanding and makes me shudder , never has she spoken to anyone like this around me , nine times out of ten she's lovely to her guests. And she's always loving and caring to me, especially when I'm feeling upset and need a shoulder to cry on, and she's been my shoulder for a whole month. I thought I knew her so well, obviously not.

"It was about three years ago now. It's been over for ages Elena, and I haven't spoken to Leila since I promise. If I'd have known she had any connection to you I swear I would have stayed away" What! But he had said he'd needed me, needed me as his sub because he couldn't have someone else owning me! Why is he lying! Does he want to hurt me? Is that why he's here? To just make it even harder for me to move on from him?

"You should have checked her background check! This is unacceptable Christian , she's my fucking niece!" technically I'm her step daughter she hates being called step mum so we decided to stick with Aunt Elena instead , that way she still feels a little young.

"I did do a background check! It never came up! If she was registered as being born into this other family then they would have been put down as her birth parents! What did you want me to do run blood tests against you and all my fucking subs! Sorry but I had better things to do then waste time!" his anger is at its maximum, as is Aunt Elena's. Suddenly it hits me how close they are, their body language matching the other perfectly. There's only one way they could have developed this closeness, they must have once had a relationship of their own.

"I feel sick" the words are out of my mouth before I realise I've said them and its only when I see two pairs of eyes locked on me that I realise I must have spoken aloud.

"Come sit down Lulu dear , this must be a hard time for you" I nod softly and accept my aunts warm hand , letting her cradle me as she takes me to the sofa and makes me sit down , adjusting the pillow under my head.

So many feelings and thoughts are rushing through my head, feelings I haven't allowed myself to think about because they just upset me. But here he was, the man who haunted my dreams and filled my head with memories of better days, and with those memories came those painful feelings. Feelings of a lost love , of a deep longing to me be cared for and protected. To be loved and wanted.

"Why didn't you tell me about Leila being with you , I knew every single one of your subs!" Christian flinches at my Aunt's anger , it's so strange to see him out of control with something. There must be some kind of history between him and Aunt Elena for him to allow her to talk to him like that. My curiosity is seriously intrigued.

"Leila wasn't like the others , I found her by accident" he was telling her the truth! Not using the intern lie as we always had , this was just getting stranger and stranger. How could he trust my Aunt so much to tell her his darkest secrets , our secret.

"You found her by accident? What like how you found Ana? Oh Christian please tell me she signed all the contracts" my aunts eyes find mine and they are dark with anger "you did sign everything right?"

"Of course she signed , Ana is the only one who's never signed because Ana was never a real submissive. Leila was!" his words kick my heart hard but I hide my pain , he knows I love him because I told his little wife back in her office. Hearing him say her name , knowing she was always more to him than just a sub unlike me and the others , there is no pain like it.

Suddenly there is a flurry of movement from Aunt Elena's room and Christian is up on his feet and entering the room within seconds , a huge smile on his face as he rushes away. I look to Aunt Elena , hoping for some answers , or even just some clue as to why Christian is so happy. All I get is a short shake of the head and a finger pointing to the front door , telling me its time I left for work.

I shake my head and her eyes narrow dangerously , her body shifting to face me as she motions for me to leave once more. I stand and shake my head again, accidently knocking a glass vase off the coffee table as I stand.

I can hear Christian's voice muffled with someone else's, a female's voice. Without thinking I pick up another vase and throw it across the room, hoping the sound will draw Christian away from the bedroom.

After all there's only one women I know who Christian would run that fast to , a woman I long to be , to live the life she leads because she posses the world's greatest prize. The heart of the world's greatest man. Mrs Anastasia Grey. And from the look in her eye as she walks out the bedroom, wearing what looks like Christian's shirt, she is not happy to see me.

Christians POV

"Ana? Baby are you okay" her beautiful blue eyes flutter open and lock on mine and just like in my office all that time ago I still wonder if she can see into my soul , her eyes have such a power of innocence that they literally take my breath away.

"Christian?" her voice is soft and full of sleep and it warms my heart instantly , such beauty and innocence wrapped up in one beautiful young woman , my sweet wife Anastasia.

"I'm here baby" gently I slip under the covers with her and pull her onto my lap, relishing in the feel of her breath against my skin as she snuggles into my chest. Her sweet scent filling me, making me feel light and protected, as if everything will always be alright so long as I have her. Nothing else matters but keeping my Ana close to me.

"What? When did you get here?" her voice becomes short and jumpy and I gently sooth her by rubbing her arm softly, holding her small body closer to my chest.

"About an hour ago baby, you were fast asleep" gently I place a soft kiss on the spot just below her ear and she tightens her hold on me.

"You could have woken me, why didn't you?" those blue eyes lock on me with a curious expression, to know what she was thinking would be such an advantage.

"You looked so peaceful , you looked like the old Ana" a warm smile fills her lips and she looks down , her fingers entwining with mine as I hold her close.

"Before I became the world's biggest drama queen and stormed off like a petulant child you mean?" I can't help but laugh at her cute description of herself, thankfully she giggles with me, filling the room with her soft beautiful laugh.

"Yes before you grew horns and became a feisty little Anastasia, I have to admit I was quite taken aback by how smart your mouth can really be" she giggles again and my heart leaps in my chest. This is what I've missed the most, just being with her like this, holding each other and talking as if we have no cares in the world. I've missed the man she makes me, the better more loving Christian Grey that only she can awaken.

"Is Elena still here?" her voice is muffled against my chest but still audible, obviously she doesn't want our conversation to be heard, and neither do I considering Leila is only meters away from the most precious person in my life, I really don't believe she's fully recovered from her mental lapse and therefore have promised myself to keep Ana as far away from Leila as I possibly can.

"Yes she is baby but we're going to leave any second now. I'm taking you home Ana , back where you belong" suddenly I fear she's going to reject me like she has the many times before but instead she kisses me , her soft full lips pressing against mine in a way no woman has ever kissed me before. Like a puzzle piece fitting with another our lips meet and mould against the other, our eyes closed as her arms fold around my neck, my hands running up her bare back.

"Oh Ana , how I've missed you" I kiss her neck softly once more and reveal in the soft sweet moan that escapes her lips , a sound almost as precious as her little giggle. All of her pressed against my chest, her body warm and comforting. Instantly I want her, no need her, need to feel the connection we have, to reunite and put the last few weeks far behind us. I can feel how Ana wants me too and it fuels my deep desire, her hips are softly grinding against my erection and the feeling spikes deep inside me, burning hot and powerful.

"Christian we can't, not here. We need to go home , take me back home" her words make my heart burst with joy and gently I raise her little body into my arms and lift her from the bed , realising her dress has been removed leaving her in just her black lace undies , her beautiful baby bump on show.

"Yes Ana, you are coming home" once more her lips are on mine and I feel myself become lost in her sweetness, my love for her growing by the second as does my desire to be buried inside her warmth. The one place I feel at my most happy is with my Ana.

A loud crash startles our moment of love, causing me to jump and nearly drop Ana.

"What was that?" I ignore her and press my lips against hers , causing her to giggle and playfully push me away , I try to fight her resistance but give in reluctantly , lowering her back onto the floor and helping her stand steady , her legs still a little wobbly from her earlier shock.

"It was probably just Elena being clumsy" I say without conviction, in all honesty I don't care what the bang was and instead just want to go back to kissing my beautiful wife. So close, we'd been so close to fully reuniting and being together like we were. I need her back, I need the light she brings to my dark life.

"Yes because Elena is usually clumsy and breaking things" her sarcasm makes me giggle and I watch as she heads for the door, obviously forgetting her lack of clothing. I quickly pull off my shirt and walk over to put in on her, covering her soft pale skin with the white material, watching as it falls perfectly over her.

"Ok so maybe she's changed her character to a clumsy person, but I don't care about Elena and her clumsiness, however your clumsiness interests me massively, it means you're more than likely to fall into my arms from time to time" I kiss her neck gently as I do the buttons up on the shirt, my chest pressed against her back, running my hands up over her beautiful baby bump. Our beautiful unborn baby protected and cared for by their mummy.

"Mr Grey that was extremely corny" that beautiful giggle once more fills the room and I can't help but kiss her neck again , moving my hands up her sculpted body , savouring the fact that she's finally letting me touch her after so much time apart.

"Your right Mrs Grey, I'm afraid I'm rather distracted by your beauty and therefore am unable to properly smooth talk you into submission" she flinches slightly and I realise how submission was probably the wrong word to use.

"Ana you're not my sub, I don't want a sub. I want you , only you" I spin her round to face me , hoping she will see the truth in my eyes and stop fighting me , she needs to come home so we can fight this together. Be a united front against all that try to break us.

Another smash is heard from the main room and Ana quickly turns to investigate , panic hits me as I remember who else is in that room.

"Ana! No wait!" I race after her but its too late.

"Leila!" Ana's voice is filled with shock and anger, even Elena flinches.

"Anastasia Grey. What a surprise to see you here, in my home of all places"
