Thank you all for the wonderful reviews.

You all wanted to know what was happening back home with Christian and the family. Well I am going to tell you.

This chapter will be about all the wonderful things Christian, Elliot and the family have been doing for the last month while Captain Trevelyan, Agent Donovan and Agent Steele have been MIA. All Christian and the family know is they left to take care of some scum and save children. They do not know they have left the state of South Carolina.

Now here is the chapter you all have been waiting for.

Chapter 46 part 18 The Trevelyan's working together to build a better future for the ones that need it.

—-

"Christian have you received any word on how Annie Rose is doing and when she is coming home?" Granmomma asked him for the thousandth time.

"No granmomma I have not and you know this. When I do, you all will know." He tells her as he walks over to her and hugs her to him.

"Yes I know but dammit I miss her, Paula and the big lug Ray." She tells him.

"I know we all do and they will be home when they have finished taking the garbage out and bringing the children home to their parents. I know in my heart if anything was wrong I would know it." He tells her as he walks her over to the couch to sit down.

"You know last week I had a feeling in my chest that something might have been wrong but it passed in a matter of minutes. If something was wrong with Ana or any of them we would know. You know Uncle J or the Director would inform us." He tells her as he holds her hand and talks to her.

"Yes, yes I know both of them would tell us. I just wonder how many children they have saved and how many bastards they have put behind bars." She tells him.

"There is no way for us to know the answers to those questions granmomma . I am sure there have been many of both." He tells her.

"Yes you are right we will know what Annie Rose can tell us when they all come home. You know she can not tell you everything about this mission she is on don't you? Hell she never told me about some of the missions she has been on and I probably will never know all of them. I am just glad that she always came back home in one piece and never hurt. Lord, I miss my Annie Rose." She tells him as she wipes a tear.

"Yes granmomma we all miss her and want her home. Want all of them home." He tells her.

"They will be home when they find all the children and take care of the bitches and bastards that are causing havoc for everyone.' She tells him as she kisses his cheek.

"I am going to take a nap Christian I will talk with you later. Tell Gail to order Chinese for supper. There is no reason for her to cook tonight." She tells him.

"Yes granmomma I will." He tells her as he watches that sweet little lady walk out of the room.

'Well my darling I don't know where you are or what you are doing. I feel lost without you and want you home with me. Our bed is lonely without you in it. I miss holding you and making love to you my sweet Angel. I hope and pray wherever you are that you are safe and taking care of yourself. I feel like if something was wrong I would feel it in my heart.'

'I know you have a job to do. Bad people to put behind bars. Children to rescue and bring home to their parents. But dammit my Angel I miss your arms around me. Hugging me, holding me, loving me.'

'Well my Angel we have accomplished most of the task we set out to do that we had made plans for before you left. My Angel the soup kitchens are complete. We all have been working there feeding the homeless and anyone that needs a meal or a place to sit a spell.'

' We turned the old hotels into apartments like you wanted to do. I bought twenty acres of land and Elliot and his crews have been building homes for the abused, for the homeless, for the Military Veterans. We have added three safe houses and a huge play area for all the children that need a safe play to get out and let some steam off when they are having a bad day. Every place is fenced in with top of the line security.'

'We redone and reopened the old public swimming pool and had a team come in and tear down the building that was there. It was falling apart. We added a gym and all the exercise equipment that anyone could ever are fences around the pool area so no one can walk in from the back and yes state of the art surveillance cameras and security.'

We have hired doctors, nurses and all medical staff that are needed for the children, parents and the Veterans. We have Psychologists, Psychiatrists for whoever needs them.'

'There are teachers and counselors for the children. We have rooms set up at the homes for the children to be taught and to help them if the need arises.'

'My Angel you would not believe this place it is like its own community. The little village as grandmama calls it is about ten miles from your business. grandma and gran decided the places needed sprucing up so they took it upon themselves to hire a landscaping company to come in and fix the grounds. They planted trees and flowers all over the place. They also had a gazebo built in the middle of the property for all to come and sit if they wanted to. They had them build a pet park for anyone that had animals. I thought that was a fantastic idea.'

'Your business is booming, there are so many orders coming in. My love, we have orders from Paris, Rome and all the country. Your HR hired some of the mothers and Veterans to work at the company and let me tell you they are awesome employees. Everyone loves them and they do their job and they do not complain at all. Your employees miss you terribly.'

'I have a few surprises for you my Angel when you come home. My lord Ana I miss you so much I want to hold you kiss you and love you something fierce. I know it has only been a month or a little longer but I need you home with me so I can fall asleep in your arms looking in your eyes and waking up looking at you. God woman, come home. I know it is wishful thinking but I hope to see you walk through that door before too much longer. We have plans to make trips we want to take, and a family to start. Yes I said it a family. I want a little girl that looks like her mommy and a little boy that looks like me. Lord Ana my love I dream every night that when I wake up you will be here beside me.' I am crying my love, my life, my Angel, my everything.'

'Lord mercy, when did I turn into a sappy girl crying?' He laughs out loud.'

'I called and took care of the concerts we were planning on having. Not sure when you will be home. I do know when you come home I will have you to myself for days. We will hide away from everyone. I know you will be too tired to carry out any of the concerts for a while. All is good and the musicians and the sponsors understand that you are working again. They all said take care and godspeed you all make it home safe.'

'Grandpa and gran are doing well. Granmomma is pestering the hell out of me wanting to know if I have heard from you or anyone. I understand and I just tell her as I do every other day no granmomma not yet but when I do you will know.'

'Gran and granmomma have sat down with me and we have talked about you a lot. Granmomma told me a lot of stories about you growing up when you would go and visit her. A lot about cooking and baking. Some of the mishaps you have had. One of the flour fights you and granmomma got into when you were eight years old when you and Ray came to see her before you and Ray left for Washington, DC. She said her kitchen was as white as her hair is now. She said it was all in fun. She wanted to see you laugh so she said she threw flour on you and you just stood there. She did again and again and finally you started throwing it at her. She tried to dodge the flour but you finally got her. Ray heard you both laughing and had to come and check on y'all. Right then granmomma was standing near the door and Ray walked in and granmomma being short like you Ray got the flour in his face. She said he was sputtering and fussing until he saw your face all glowing with flour and laughing your ass off. My love I wish I could have seen that. Hell, I wish I could see you.'

'There are more stories but I'll save them till later.'

'I have added more rooms to the back of the house. I got the pool installed that you wanted and there is one downstairs in the basement. It is heated. There is a hot tub that will seat ten people comfortably. Gran and granmomma wanted a big one. I had a gym built adjacent to the basement and you have a sauna like you always wanted.'

'The grands love the sauna and grandpa loves the gym.'

'Elliot has been busy while you all have been gone. He has worked with his crews to get all the homes built and redone the hotels. He has built more onto his and Paula's home; they have a pool now.'

'My Angel I sit in our room and look out the window daydreaming that you will walk through those doors any minute now. I lay on our bed and think about all the times we have laid here and just talked or looked at each other. I think about all the times we have made love, fucked and made love over and over. I lay on our bed and think about what the future holds for us. Where will we go, what will we be doing when I see you round with our first child, second child. Holding your hair when you have morning sickness being there to help you get out of bed or out the bath. Off the couch or down the stairs. No on second thought, I think we will move our bedroom downstairs. I don't want my Angel falling and hurting herself and the baby.'

'My Angel I have so many plans for us together and then as a family. I want our family to go places and do things together that I never got to do with my birth mom. That you never got to do with your mom. It hurts me that you never knew your mom, only what Ray and granmomma told you.'

'I have made a bucket list of things I want to do with you now and over our lifetime. Together and with our children. I keep coming back to children. Ana, Angel I want children with you. I want us to grow old with them. I want to see my grandchildren grow up and if god lets us, I want to see our great grandchildren one day.'

'My love I have been in contact with the Doctors without borders and they are doing wonderfully over there. They have had no problems and they are taking very good care of themselves and their patients. I have sent packages to every group and everyone is being taken care food that is sent to them not only helps the ones in their camps but anyone that needs help they provide it for them. I am so glad we are able to help those in need, my Angel.'

'There have been a few births over there and the grands and Gail have fixed packages for the mothers and babies. Lord, I never knew babies needed that much stuff. I was little when she, who will not be mentioned, came home. So I didn't know what all babies needed. I do now though and I am so glad that when the time comes for us to have a baby that we are financially able to care for the baby and any babies we have in the future.'

'I set up a daycare center at our business for the mothers that wanted to work but couldn't afford or were too scared to leave their baby with just anyone. I hope that was alright. The daycare center is in the new office building away from the work area. Everyone was happy when I brought it up and they agreed with me. The daycare will be in four groups. As you gave maternity leave to the mothers for eight weeks after delivery to come back to work. We set it up for two months old to one year old. Then one year old to three years old and finally three years old to five years old. After five years old they will be in school.'

'Finally grandpa and I along with Welch have decided on who will be running my company. I will tell you all about it when you come home. For some reason Barney seems to be missing a lot. I think he has finally found himself a girlfriend. Welch said he hasn't seen or heard from in a while. I hope he is alright.'

'My Angel I have 110% faith in you and your ability to handle the situation you are facing. I remember what I said to you before you left.' 'Ana I love you with every breath in my body. I know you gave up your jobs because of me. Well I also know that you wanted to leave the FBI so we could travel and plan our future with a family of our own one day. I am not saying now is that day but I pray it is not too far into the future.' I remember looking at you and I smiled.'

'Anastasia I know in my heart and in your heart that you need to do this to bring those kids out safely and if this is what it is going to take to do that then my darling I am with you 110%. I will say that I am scared to death but zi know you are trained not only by the FBI, NCIS but this man standing here beside me. I know in my heart he would never let anything happen to you. So with that being said if you have no doubts about doing this I will be here waiting for you with open arms when you come home. Not if but when my Angel.'

'I remember looking at you and you were crying softly. Not only you but Paula and Ray had tears in their eyes as I did.'

'I remember you walking over to me and hugging me tight and laying your head on my chest and crying more.'

'I remember you saying Christian my love I have no doubts but what you have said cements my warring within myself whether to do this or not. You have given me your love, your trust and your heart in everything I do. I know this is going to be hard on you not knowing where I am and what I will be doing from one minute to the next.'

'My darling Anastasia you have no idea, maybe you do know how hard this is on me. I have no control over this situation and it is the toughest situation I have ever been in. I need you home with me. If it wasn't for Uncle J and the Director giving me something to do I would be crazy by now. They gave me purpose and control to handle things in our home. They gave me a reason to carry on and not lock myself up in your office missing you each and everyday. Don't get me wrong love I do miss you each and everyday god how I miss you.'

'I was able to help with the agents that were brought in to answer phones, to feed them and the parents that came in to answer questions. I gave them all the newest IPhones on the market.'

'As soon as the Director told me that you had brought the criminals to justice and the children were at the old Military hospital being taken care of. I jumped into action and we clothed the children, got them shoes and whatever else they needed. We fed the poor little darlings as you know they were starving them.'

'I also started the hospital back up. I called in some favors and have a lot of sponsors contributing to the hospital and the medical staff. We brought upgraded medical equipment and upgraded the beds. We made two rooms larger for patients and family to stay to like we had in the hospital for us. We had the ceilings and floors fixed and put a new roof on . We updated the heating and air units. Had new wiring redone all through the hospital. Hired more doctors and nurses and rehired some of the ones that were laid off when the hospital closed down. Everyone passed their Background checks.'

'Now my love I am sitting in our room on our bed reminiscing about the fun times we had at the beach. Parasailing, going to all the places like the Wax Museum, Ripley's Believe it or not, the upside down house wasn't that Wonderworks? The SkyWheel we have to do that again. How about Zip lining? That was fun and we could see everything. My favorite was when we went to eat all those crab legs and we made a bet. We both won on that one no matter who ate the most. You wanted my house in Paris and I wanted one of your jets.'

'Those were memories we will make again and add more to them.'

'I remember walking over to Ray's house scared to death to talk to the man that you worship and gran and granmomma were there. They knew what I wanted to talk to Ray about. I told them they could stay because I wanted granmomma's blessing to. I never expected her to give me that ring for you. I already had one picked and designed for you but I will never tell granmomma that.

'I have had the guys that are living there in the security house check in with me and make sure all is going good and it is. I make sure they have what they need. I didn't know you gave them a card for food and whatever they might need. I gave them another one for clothes and what not. I am paying them now since you are not here and I have had Bradley or Dav as you call him help me out a lot with things I didn't know you had in place. Like all the bills are paid electronically for the houses in Myrtle Beach. I am not complaining but I thought security was handling all that.'

'I hope you all are back in time for a big announcement. I think Jason is going to propose to Gail. Something tells me he is. They are so happy together now and you can see they love each other very much. I see the way they look at each other is the way we look at each other.'

'Well my Angel time for me to get some shuteye. I haven't had any nightmares since you have been gone. Just good dreams about you coming home. I love and miss you my beautiful Angel. Sweet dreams and be careful until I see you.' he says softly as he cries into his pillow holding one of their pictures.

Well that is all for now on how Christian and the Trevelyan's are coping. Christian misses his Angel but he has been staying busy. Just look at what all he has accomplished. He got all the houses built and hotels redone. Basically, the Military hospital they rehired and hired more doctors and nurses. Bought new updated equipment for the medical staff. Took care of the children that Ana sent there to be checked out.

Started a daycare at their business. Helped the mothers get jobs at their company.

Open the swimming pool back up and built a gym. Wow, he has been busy.

Had a indoor and outdoor pool installed at their home. Had a sauna built for his Angel.

He has been very busy helping and he is in control thanks to Uncle J and all the people that need his help. He doesn't feel helpless.

That is what he has been up to. I hope you like it.

Always remember to say I love you
