Ch. 34 - Investigation and Answers

Christian’s POV

 

I awaken abruptly from my nightmare.  Thank fucking god it was only a dream. My Ana was kidnapped and I couldn’t find her.  Last night’s event must have really gotten to me. I don’t even know what time I fell asleep. I feel and must look like hell, but on the contrary, my love looks like a sleepy beauty. The sunlight glazing through the sheer curtains caresses her divine soft face. 

 

Ana’s POV

 

I awaken to my dear husband gazing at me. He looks so tired. He must have slept late last night.  “Good morning Mr. Grey, are you stalking me again?”

 

He answers me with a smirk.”Good morning sleeping beauty.  I will always stalk you.  I am your stalker for life.”

 

I smirk back at him. “I do like you stalking me for life. If I would choose anyone in the world to stalk me, it would be you, my Adonis husband.”

 

While he caresses my cheeks, he says “Oh baby, I would go to the ends of this earth for you. How are you feeling?”

 

 I have to be honest with him. “I am scared from last night. Please find out what happened and if we are in danger. From the way you look this morning, I can see you are also worried. You must have slept late last night.”

 

His face turns serious as he responds, “Ana, I love you so much. Last night I felt so scared. I don’t ever want to lose you. I will do everything in my power to keep you, Teddy, and little Peanut safe. I promise you I will find out what happened. Thank you for the wonderful birthday surprise.”

 

  His words still melt my heart. “Christian, I trust you with all of my heart. You have the power and passion to keep us safe. All I ask is to keep yourself safe. I don’t want anything to happen to you. Baby, your birthday surprise was so much fun to plan. Speaking of passion I believe we have some time for it.”

His grey eyes gleamed with steam as a fire burned in them.  His lips touch mine kissing me tenderly eagerly turning into ecstasy as his tongue slid in and out of my mouth.  My body instantly melted into jelly contouring unto his body as he gently hovers over me. As our tongues embrace each other, he slides his hands down to my sex.  I part my legs to give him better access. He continues to assault me until I cannot take anymore.

 

“Christian, I need you in me now.”

 

In one long, slow plunge, he imbedded himself into me. He delved deeper into me with each rhythmic push.  We both were in ecstasy for a while leading to our release.

 

After our sexy fun in the bedroom, we quickly get dressed and head to the kitchen.

 

Our little prince was already in the kitchen with Sawyer eating a bowl of cereal. I look past Teddy and see Gail cooking breakfast. I didn’t want her to do any kind of work on this trip. Why is she cooking? Why is she making so much food? I know Gail and I are always hungry because of this pregnancy, but we don’t eat that much.

 

“Gail, why are you cooking a feast? You know you are also on vacation. I don’t expect you to do anything but enjoy yourself.”

 

She smiles back at me. “Ana, I am enjoying myself. I love to cook. Plus it calms my nerves and we have some guests coming over. If it makes you feel better, Taylor helped me out.” Taylor helped out! I don’t believe it! I would have taken a picture of it! It reminds me of the time Christian cooked me a meal for Valentine’s Day last year. It wasn’t so bad.

 

My thoughts are interrupted by a knock on the door. Sawyer goes to the door and checks the peep hole. He opens the door and the whole gang comes rushing in.

 

Mia drags Ethan as she runs over to us. She is a bundle of energy so early in the morning while Ethan looks like a puppy being dragged playfully by a group of children.

 

Kate and Elliot waltz in with little Ava dressed in the cutest teal dress. Elliot holds her lovingly in his arms. He is so enamored by her. She will have him twisted around her fingers when she gets older.

 

My mom, Bob, Dad, Grace, and Gary step in right behind Kate and Elliot.

 

Liz and her family also join us. Her kids look so tired and bored. Liz just gives me just shrugs her shoulder when I notice her kids demeanor.

Liz, Kate, Grace, Mia, my mom, and I help Gail setup the table while the men carry the food to the dining table.

 

During the meal Christian tells us not to worry about last night. He assured us he will get to the bottom of it.

 

After breakfast Christian tells Taylor they will leave in 5 minutes. He says goodbye to everyone.  I walk him to the door and give him a juicy wet kiss.

He holds me tight and gives me one as well. “Mrs. Grey, I will miss you this morning, but I will be back by lunchtime.  I will bring some delicious gourmet cuisine from the restaurant. Speaking of delicious, your kiss was delectable. I want some more of that lip later.” I bite my lip on purpose to provoke him.

He closes his eyes for a brief second sighing.  When he opens his eyes they have turned a dark stormy grey. “Don’t bite that lip. You know what it does to me. I can’t resist you when you do that.”

 

I like provoking him. “Mr. Grey, I will stop biting my lip if you promise me to bring me to ecstasy some more today.”

 

He tightens his hold me so I can feel his erection. “Mrs. Grey, your wish is my command. Your promise shall be fulfilled today.  The sooner I leave the sooner I can get back to you to pleasure you.”

 

We kiss one more time before he exits through the door with Taylor.

 

As I turn around to go back to my family and friends Elliot suddenly appears around the corner.  “You two should stay in a room locked up.  You guys always have to touch in some way or another.  Haven’t gotten enough of each other?”

 

Elliot is so funny. Is he stalking us? “Elliot, why are you always around us when we have our intimate moments? Are you stalking us? I have enough of stalking from my dear husband.  By the way, you are the same way with Kate. Don’t you remember?”

 

Elliot looks quizzically as if he is absorbing what I just said. “I wasn’t stalking you. I just happen to be at the right place at the right time. I know the tendencies Christian has. Yes, you are right about Kate and me. I also can’t keep my hands and other parts away from her.” He winks at me.

 

“Oh Elliot, you are one of a kind. Life would be dull without you. Let me take that back, life would be dull if I would have never met your brother.” Elliot smiles back at me.

 

As I enter the dining room, everyone is engaging in conversations enjoying themselves. I stand in place for a brief moment encapsuling this moment in my head so I can come back to it later on in life.  I join them in this brief miniscule instant of time and space.

 

At the Milon

 

Christian’s POV

We arrive within 15 minutes to the Milon. The owner is already waiting for us outside. He informs us the power is back on. It was tampered last night.

 

He leads us to the room with all the CCTV equipments.  The security guard shows us the CCTV tape second by second. I notice the blue mini cooper Ana mentioned to me last night parked across the street. I tell the owner and security guard, “Please stop there. My wife told me a blue mini cooper was following us for a while yesterday. I think it is the same car. Let’s see if the person comes out of the car.”

 

The tape is played again, but in a slower motion. The door of the car opens up revealing the driver. As he gets up and turns his head while closing the door of the car his face shows up clear as a whistle on the screen. The guard takes a snapshot of it and prints out two pictures of him. He also zooms around and gets a clear picture of his license plate. The guard also prints out the license plate. He hands me one of the copies. The tape is continued.  It shows that he was the one who tampered with the power and even tried to get in the building. The stampede of people trying to get out stopped him. Thank god he couldn’t get in.  From the evidence we saw on the video it seems he is working alone. At least I hope so. I still don’t know if he is after us, but I will find out soon enough.

 

After the video, the owner tells us he will investigate it on his end. I tell him I will also do the same on my part and that we will be in touch.  

 

Before I leave the restaurant, I order some food to bring back at the hotel. 

 

On the way back, I email Ros the two pics. I call her to make sure she received it and also to give her instructions on what to do. “Ros, I need this information as of yesterday! This is urgent!”

 

Ros: “I am on top of it Mr. Grey. I will have it to you by the end of today.”

 

Christian: “Thank you Ros.”

 

It doesn’t take us long to arrive at the hotel.  Taylor opens the door for me while I carry the lunch.  My eyes first lay eyes on my Ana.  She turns around and looks back at me. We lock eyes, sparkling blue to grey. The room still stands still when we gaze at each other. It is as if in this world it is only me and her at this moment. Time stops for an instant as our energy radiates through our piercing intense stare.

Our moment is cut off by Teddy pulling at my leg. “Dady, I am hungy.”

 

Taylor grabs the food from my hands so I can pick up my baby boy. I hold him tightly and kiss his hair. “My baby boy, I love you so much.  I missed you. I have some very good food for you.”

 

He claps his hands and says, “Yah! Fod Fod! I luv u Dady! I mss u to!”

 

Ana hugs us as much as her belly allows her to. She kisses Teddy’s hair and my cheeks.  “I miss you too Mr. Grey.”

 

Taylor sets the lunch on the table and helps Gail set it up.

 

We eat the gnocchi’s, garlic bread, salads, and pizza enjoying our company. I really like to spent time with my family and friends.  A few years ago I was a loner and now I am not. It is all because of Ana. I will show her until the day I am longer on this earth how much I love her and appreciate her.

 

After lunch, I tell Liz’s kids they can watch television in the living room.  All I ask of them is to watch Teddy for a while.  As they walk towards the living room, I inform Sawyer to go with them.

 

I look around the room and say, “I need to speak to all of you. This is between us adults. I found out some information from the events that occurred yesterday. Let’s head into the den so we can be comfortable.”

 

As I walk in the den, Ana looks at me with concern. I hold her hand and squeeze tightly and give her a reassuring grin.

 

In the den

“As you all know I went to go see the owner of the Milon to view the videos from last night.  We went through the whole tape. The information we found is that the power was tempered by a man in his early 30’s. He had dirty blonde mid length straight hair which reached above his shoulders. He had green eyes and pale skin.  His was also driving a blue mini cooper with the tag number PKY589. I already sent the pictures of the license tag and of the male to Ros. She will find out whom this man is and if he is after us by the end of today. I wanted to tell you, because I want you to be aware of your surroundings as we continue sightseeing here and in the other provinces in Argentina we will be going.”

 

“I don’t want you to be scared. Let’s keep enjoying our trip. I will pass around the picture of the suspected man so you can get a good glimpse of him.”

 

Ana’s POV

I knew my man would find out about the mystery blackout.  I hold in my hands the picture of the culprit.  He is not bad looking, but he does not compare to my Christian. Actually no one compares to my hot husband.  I have mesmerized the image in front of me. I pass it along to the rest of the gang.

 

I have to lighten the mood. “How would you like to play Charades?”

 

Mia yelps back first of course. “Meeee!”

 

Elliot slaps Kate’s lap and yells,”Yess!” Kate slaps his arm back in retaliation.

 

Liz and her husband respond at the same time, “Hell yeah!”

 

Gail say, “I would love to!”

 

The rest of the gang gives a thumbs up.

 

Taylor gets up to get the kids.

 

We play many rounds of Charades for the rest of the afternoon.
