I hope this answers some of your questions!


Christian's POV:

When I finally reach to exit to find Ana, all I see is black car speeding away from the alley. I notice a piece of paper lying on the ground.

If you want to see Anastasia again you'll pay.

Oh shit!

Trying to keep my head together, I pick up my phone and call Taylor. " Mr. Grey." He answers.

I choke out, "Meet me in the ally now! Someone's taken Ana." Why did I break up with her? Why did I leave her without security? I am so fucking stupid! If something happens to her, I'll never be able to live with myself.

Taylor and Sawyer arrive into the alley and I can't speak, I just hand the note to them.

"I'll call Welch." I hear Taylor say in the background, but all that's going through my mind is what was written on the note. If they want money, I'll give them every cent I have. We go into my office at the club and look over the security cameras. I am able to see two men and a woman in the vehicle as they pull in. Elena Lincoln, Jack Hyde, and a mystery man. Why are these people so hell bent on ruining my life?

I call my lawyer and freeze all of the funds for her salons. We had an arrangement, which was purely business. She leaves Ana and I alone or else I cut her off. Clearly she didn't listen. My policy has always been no police, just let my security deal with it, but this is to important to keep secret.

I call 911 and tell them what's happened. They rush over and meet me in my office.

"Sir, I know you've already told the operator what's happened, but we need you to give us a statement." I sigh, but nod my head.

"Alright, if you could take us to the crime scene." I lead them through the now empty club to the back exit.

"So can you tell us what's happened?"

"There's not much to tell. I came out here to find my girlfriend... ex-girlfriend and I saw a black car speeding away then I found the note."

"Is there anyway this could be a scheme to get money out of you?"

"Never!" I shout, this is why I don't work with the police.

"Just had to ask."

"We also looked over the CCTV cameras at the club and have identified two of the people involved. Jack Hyde and Elena Lincoln."

"Very good."

"Is that all you need?" I ask anxious to get home.

"Yes, sir."

"I will have one of the staff who works here show you the video footage."

"Thank you. We will put out and APB right away." I nod at him and Taylor drives me back to Escala.

When I walk through the doors I'm shocked to see my whole family and Ana's closest friends. The first thing I do is thank Kate for calling me. If she hadn't told me where Anastasia was we might not have noticed her go missing.

"I know you love each other, Christian." She says with a smile then I run into the arms of my mother and start crying. This is all my fault. Why her and not me?

When I pull away my mother is crying and everyone is looking at me like I have three heads.

"Can someone explain why everyone's staring at me?"

"You just hugged mom." Oh, I guess I did. That is the first time I have ever hugged my mother.

We turn on the news and Mia starts cooking some food for everyone. Ana's face is all over the TV along with Hyde and Elena. They've found the licence plate number and it says if you see this vehicle to call right away.

"Wait, Elena Lincoln had something to do with this?" Oh crap, I didn't think this plan through did I? I see Taylor back into his office...sly.

"Yes, mother." I reply, looking down at my feet.

"Why would she do something like this?"

"She believes... She believes that Ana has stolen me from her." I sigh loudly "Mother when I was fifteen, Elena introduced me into the world of BDSM." The room is silent. I never wanted to share this with my family, but it's time.

"She did what?" My mothers goes from calm to livid. "I swear, if I get to her before the police does, she's a dead woman." Oh god!

"Mother." I hear Elliot speak up. "If Christian is going to e honest so must I. Elena did the same thing to me." No this can't be happening. How did I not know about this? That bitch hurt my brother too.

"Oh my god, I'm the worst mother in the world." Grace says, but we all ignore it and turn to Mia. "Mia, do you have anything to share?" Elliot asks. She just shakes her head no.

"Mother, you had no way of knowing." Grace is crying and Carrick is trying to calm her down. This is why I didn't want my mother to find out.

"Christian." Taylor shouts from his office and we all rush in "Someone called in about the car it was last seen turning on to 39th ave."

"39th Ave? Elena was telling me about a new home in Seattle she just bought on 39th ave."

"Do you remember the address?"

"400, I think"

"Taylor, get the car and let's go."

"Christian, you can't" My mother says pulling me backwards.

"I have to" She lets go and I give her a hug.

"I'm coming with you" Elliot and Anthony say in unison.

"Hurry up then." We put on bullet proof vests and Taylor and Luke load there guns. I turn around to see Anthony doing the same.

"You have a gun?" I look at him in shock.

"My father was in the army! I'm always prepared. Why is it so hard to believe anyways? Ana has one." Anastasia has a gun? I wonder where she keeps it?

We get into two cars and speed in the direction of the house.


Ana's POV:

I wake up in the back seat of the car next to someone I don't recognize. I see Jack and Elena in the front laughing. I try to scream, but I've been gagged. The car comes to a stop and I close my eyes and pretend to sleep. The doors open and someone throws me over their shoulder. I open my eyes and do my best to figure out where I am, but nothing.

They place me on a chair and as they are trying to tie me down I slip my hands hands out and take Jack to the ground then Elena. I have her by the throat when the mystery man picks me up and holds me down on the chair. I swear, I hear him whisper 'I'm sorry' in my ear. They restrain me and leave the room. What the fuck do they want?

Christian's looking for me, I repeat this in my head over and over until I fall asleep. I wake up and someone is walking into the room with water. Yes, water, I'm so thirsty.

"I'm going to take the gag off, but you need to be quiet." I nod and once it's off I start screaming, but he covers my mouth.

"I'm not going to hurt you. They have my sister that's why I'm going this. I called in a tip to the local police of our general where about, but you have to promise me something."

"Anything." I whisper.

"You have to make sure Elena gets locked up."

"Alright, but why you? Why'd they pick you? You can't be older than fifteen." My face falls once I realize what I've said.

"You're her submissive aren't you?" He just nods


Do you think it's time for Ana to be found or should I wait longer? x
