Chapter48

Christian's POV

"Hey bro there is a safe here." Elliot says to me while walking to the wall. Anna walks over to inspect and says to us.

"Guys this is heavy shit. This safe requires an eye retinal scan, a handprint scan and it also has a voice command recognizer. There is no way to get into that safe but bring the owner here. Elliot looks at me then at Anna with a weird expression and says.

"Anna how many people can be programed to open this safe." What is my brother thinking?

"Elliot that is a weird question but to answer you I would say probably 4. Why do you ask?" Let me see 4, that is interesting. I now see were he is going with this. The bugger actually can use his brains when he feels like it.

"Because if I am right our friend Paul is a very obsessed man. He is obsessed with you Anna. His whole life revolves around you. If you read some of these files he has on you it's very scary."Elliot says. Yes, he is correct this bastard has probably given Anna access to this safe. I think I know what to do.

"Ok but I still don't get it Elliot. What are you thinking? Who else would Paul trust with his safe codes? This does not make sense. Can someone please tell me what the hell is going on?" Anna asks. The bastard now I get it. Anna is starting to get angry at our silence. Without a word I walks up to her, and plant a passionate kiss on her lips and without breaking contact I take her hand and places it in hand scanner and the first lock opens stunning us all. I look at her and smile and I say.

"I got another kiss baby. The bastard was so obsessed with you baby. He was so sure of himself he put you as an administrator to his safes without even telling you." I put my right eye by the eye scanner and the second lock opens and Christian takes another kiss.

Anna POV

Oh boy now there is one more lock.

"Ok boys now what do I say to open the final lock?"

I ask, just as Alex and Bulldog come into the office and spot what's going on. Elliot explains were we are so far and everyone is thinking of something for me to say. I try my name and it says denied. I try Sam and it's denied to. By the 9th try the computer voice says last try. If we get it wrong the safe goes into lockdown for 2 hours. I walk out the office and go to the beach to think. Christian stands next to me not saying a word and takes my hand calming me. My mind is in overdrive thinking. What would that bastard use for me to say? It would be something that would please him greatly. Something he had dreamed of every day. I got it. I run back to the office with Christian running behind me still clinging onto my hand. I stand in front of the safe and take a deep breath. Everybody is looking at me in anticipation and I give Christian another long kiss and when we break free I speak in a clear loud voice.

"Doctor Anastasia Rose Mike Paul wife of Master Mike Paul." And they gasp at me but the safe swings open. I knew it, that bastard. Elliot asks me how did I know what to say. So I say.

"Well, you said he was obsessed to the point of insanity. And he wanted me to be Mrs. Paul that is why he wrote it in the letter to us on the plane. If he wanted me to say it out loud this is the only way to do it. So I took a guess and said it and it worked. What is in the safe?"

We all wait patiently Christian holding my hand in his while Alex and Taylor empty everything out and lays them onto the office desk. There are a lot of jewelry boxes one in particular catches my eye. It is a ring box with an envelope attached to it. It is addressed to Dr. Anastasia Rose Steele. This gets me really thinking because he knew me as Sam or did he know the truth all along and kept it to himself. Elliot shows me 2 files. One has my real name on it and the other with Christians name on it. I realize it is our complete background checks. The bastard knew all along whom I was. He was checking up on Christian because of the search party he led for the first year I was missing.

"Christian my background check was done 3 years before I went missing. He somehow knew me back then already."

"Shit you correct Anna. So the first abduction was not according to his plans. The cruise just happened to be for his convenience. So he was going to get you then. Then something happened and he lost you to the cartel. The only way he was going to get you was to buy you on the Slave Auction. He must have been furious at the idea. This all starts to make sense."

I handed the letter and ring box to Elliot to open because I didn't want to break my contact I have with Christian. The things he has just told me are rattling around in my head. I told the guys I was 16 when they done the article on me in the Special weapons magazine.

"Anna what was the article about?" Taylor asked me.

"Is was for the inventions I designed in my last year at university. It was my plastic gun I designed and patented. They were a big hit because they could not be detected, by any metal detectors. I also invented the Elliot gloves." I got a good chuckle from most of the guys. Luke been the new guy to the team comments about the gun and the bullets and how did I make them not detectable.

"Luke I used a special plastic I created in my lab. This plastic allowed me to construct the bullets. So yes they were all plastic even the bullets." I bent down and lifted my left pants and took my gun from my ankle holster. I secured it and handed it over to Luke to have a look.

"That's my baby Luke. That's what landed me on the front of the magazine at only 16." I couldn't help the laugh that came out. He was just amazed with my gun. He looked like a child that tasted candy for the first time. I didn't care I saw the pride all oner my husbands face and he scored another long kiss.
