Chapter 25 - Ghosts From The Past



I know Taylor would never interrupt a meeting without very good reason.

“If I might have a word, Mr. Grey,” he says quietly, as he enters the conference room at the hotel where I’m in a meeting to discuss some business opportunities here in Georgia. When I see the look on his face, I can tell instantly it’s not good news. His jaw is clenched, his fists are clenched, and his whole body is radiating tension. So I excuse myself, and we make our way out into the corridor for some privacy.

“What’s going on? Has something happened to Miss Steele?” My first thought is that the surveillance team has reported some sort of a problem.

“No, sir. I just took a call from Gail… Mrs. Jones. She was calling from the Harborview Medical Center following an incident.”

“What do you mean an incident? What kind of a fucking incident? Has she had an accident or something?”

“No, she’s okay… but she had a visitor. An ex acquaintance of yours, sir. You recall Leila Williams?”

“Yes. What about her?”

“Well, apparently she somehow managed to gain access to your apartment earlier today, she just turned up unannounced. Gail was the only person there at the time.” I see Taylor’s expression harden. 

“Miss Williams wanted to see you, insisted that she had to talk to you. Gail tried to explain that you weren’t there, but she wouldn’t believe her. Then Miss Williams starts screaming and shouting, wanting to know why her Master’s  found someone else, that she would do anything for him…”

“I get the picture,” I snap.

“So then she produces a razor blade and starts slashing her wrists. Gail managed to restrain her and get the blade from her, even though she could have been fucking injured herself.” I can see Taylor is really struggling to control his feelings, and I totally get that he feels protective towards Gail. “Sorry sir, it’s just… well, I blame myself. This woman should not have been able to gain access to the apartment, and Gail should not have been put at risk like that.”

“No, indeed, but we’ll get to the bottom of all that shit later. What happened after Gail got the blade from her?”

“She did some emergency first aid and then got her to the hospital. It seems the cuts weren’t actually that deep, luckily. They’re arranging for a shrink to see her now. But she’s still asking for you, sir.”

“What the hell is the matter with the woman? I haven't seen her for what… must be getting on for three years now, so what on earth has brought this on? But never mind that, how’s Gail? Are you sure she’s alright? She’s definitely not injured at all?”

“She’s okay, just a bit shaken up. She’s staying at the hospital to try and keep the girl calm, but she says she’s still acting really weird.”

“Call Hilton Head. We’re heading back as soon as they can ready the plane,” I bark at Taylor, and I can see he’s relieved we’re returning immediately. Of course he wants to see Gail. I want to make sure she really is okay too.

So this day that started out as one of the best of my life when I took Ana soaring, has now become one of the worst.
~~~

Miss Leila Williams. 

I remember her very clearly. She started out as pretty much the perfect submissive for me. Naturally she was the usual pretty, slightly built, pale skinned, brown haired type of young woman that I always select for my submissive, but she had these huge, bourbon colored brown eyes that made her stand out.

And I remember querying something at her selection interview.

“You don’t seem to have marked anything down as either a soft or hard limit – is that an oversight on your part?” If it was, then she’d just ruled herself out – I don't appreciate sloppiness, or my time being wasted.

“No, Sir. I’ll do anything – anything at all that would please you, Sir,” she whispered, looking down at the floor and not at me, as was to be expected of a good sub.

I stared at her – everyone had something they drew the line at, surely?

“How long have you been subbing?” I asked. She was only twenty one and maybe she didn’t really understand what she was potentially letting herself in for, although Elena had checked her out before setting up the interview, and had assured me that she came highly recommended by her previous Dom.

“Three years, Sir. I just like… I like to be pushed hard, very hard, to discover the limits of what I can take. And I’ve been told that you… well, you are the type of Master who is capable of that. If it pleases you, Sir.”

Well, well. I thought this could certainly be an interesting arrangement. And so began the first three months of our contracted agreement.

And in the beginning, everything worked out excellently. Leila followed the rules to the letter. And as she’d promised, she would do anything I asked of her. So I had a very interesting and enjoyable time acting out all sorts of new demanding scenes with a totally compliant submissive. I was particularly into rope suspension at the time, which calls for patience from my sub because it’s time consuming to set up, but she willingly agreed to it. 

I really enjoyed having her completely helpless, bound and suspended upside down so I could fuck her mouth at will.  And she was into anal sex, she’d prepare for days to be ready for me to take my pleasure in her ass. The list was endless, it seemed. Whatever new kinky shit I dreamed up, she’d happily go along with.

She kept herself very supple and fit, so she had lots of energy to keep up with my very demanding needs that inevitably built up by the weekend. She seemed perfect in every way, and quickly earned the privilege of calling me Master. Her first three months contract was extended for another three months.

But here’s the thing; because I enjoy punishing my subs, it is necessary for them to break the rules or disobey me once in a while, at least in some minor way, which Leila never did in the beginning. And I only really get off on giving a genuine punishment caning or whipping that I can see is deserved, according to my criteria, but I had to find excuses with Leila, and that took the edge off my pleasure. 

She pleaded with me to just whip her anyway, but that’s not how it works. Then it’s just basically topping from the bottom, because the sub is setting the agenda, and that’s not how I do things.

I began to suspect that Leila was being manipulative, trying to inveigle her way into my life. I thought her game plan was to start off doing everything Sir demanded without question, thereby making herself indispensable in catering to his very singular tastes, then move in on him to become more involved in his life. 

She loved staying at my apartment, and completely redecorated her room to make it her own. That was fine – I always tell my subs they can do that if they wish. It’s easy enough to get it repainted in a neutral white when they leave.  But it went further than that with Leila.

In hindsight, all the signs were there, little insidious changes she instigated that on their own weren’t too alarming. I discovered that she’d downloaded some of her choice of music onto my iPod, which I let go at the time as it seemed harmless. Leila re-arranged the kitchen cupboards, which was not part of her duties, and upset Gail. During the week, she liked to spend her time painting - she was quite a talented artist. Then she brought round a couple of pieces of her work that she wanted me to hang as part of my art collection in the apartment, even though her work was not to my taste, as it was rather garish and brightly colored. 

And a couple of times I caught her snooping round my apartment in places she had no business to be – such as my study, and even my bedroom. She was quite cheeky and mischievous when she made her excuses, about how she was tidying up, or doing something special for me, but that was not part of our arrangement. 

Although it did give me reason to punish her, I felt uneasy. And then Leila started offering to come over during the week, even just turning up sometimes, saying she missed me, and wouldn’t I like to just flog and fuck her now she was here. It was clear she was becoming too attached and overstepping the mark.

She wanted more. I didn’t. So I terminated our contract.

Leila didn’t take it well. I had a number of tearful phone calls, begging me to give her another chance, but I refused, and eventually she accepted my decision after I barred her calls. Then I heard from Elena that she’d met another guy and they’d gotten married not that long after, so I assumed that was that, she was out of my life for good.

But now this, nearly three years later. What the fuck is going on? Why did this have to happen, just when things were getting good between Anastasia and me?

~~~

As we’re about to leave for the airport, Taylor gets another call from Gail.

“Shit! She fucking what? How could they let her… no it’s not your fault… yeah, we’re just about to head for the airport… I’ll let you know when we land…”

Taylor closes his eyes and takes a deep breath as I look at him expectantly.

“Miss Williams discharged herself from Harborview, before the shrink could complete his assessment of her. She asked Gail to go and get some things for her, and when she got back, she’d gone. She’s just taken off and disappeared. Nobody knows where she’s gone, and now Gail’s blaming herself.”

“Christ almighty, this is turning into a fucking nightmare! I want Welch on the case; get him to find out everything he can about Miss Williams and her possible whereabouts. Tell him to make this his top priority; I want her found so she can get some proper help before she makes another suicide attempt, maybe more successfully next time. She’s clearly become unbalanced in some way. And I can't have her turning up and making scenes all over the place,” I holler, as I run my hands through my hair in sheer frustration. 

I just don't get why Leila would turn up out of the blue now, after all this time. What the fuck has brought this about?

I try phoning Anastasia to let her know I can’t make dinner at her mom’s place tonight, but her phone is engaged.

 Who the fuck is she talking to? 

Luckily she calls me straight back, and I answer straight away.

“Anastasia.”

“Hi.”

“I have to return to Seattle. Something’s come up. I am on my way to Hilton Head now. Please apologize to your mother – I can't make dinner.”

“Nothing serious, I hope?”

“I have a situation which I have to deal with. I’ll see you Friday. I’ll send Taylor to collect you from the airport if I can't come myself.”

“Okay. I hope you sort out your situation. Have a safe flight.”

“You too, baby.”
~~~

The eight hour flight back to Seattle seems interminable. I try to figure out why the fuck Leila would be seeking me out and then attempt to slash her wrists. If she’d been truly serious about killing herself, she’d have made a better job of it. No, it seems much more like a cry for help, her seeking attention for some reason. Maybe if this had happened soon after I’d terminated our contract, then perhaps I could have understood it, but nearly three years later?  What’s changed? And I can’t help having a horrid sneaky suspicion that this has something to do with Anastasia, and the picture of us together in the newspaper.

Of course I didn't tell Ana anything about what’s happened with Leila when I phoned her. I don't want her worried or upset. I don't want crappy shit from my past spoiling what we have now. I’m hoping to get this situation resolved quickly, before Ana gets back, once we track Leila down.
I hate flying away from her, putting distance between us like this, but I know it’s for the best. Once I’ve got the situation under control, I’ll feel calmer, then we can take up where we left it before all this shit kicked off.

Despite the time that has elapsed since I was Leila's Dom, I can't help feeling guilty if my past actions have in anyway contributed to this unstable behavior of hers. The health and welfare of a sub is the prime responsibility of a Dom, and I’ve always taken that responsibility very seriously. So if Leila is ill and needs help, I still feel duty bound to ensure she gets the help she needs.

As soon as we land, I get an update on the Leila situation from Welch. It’s not good news. Her last known address has drawn a blank – she hasn’t been there for some time. He’s managed to get CCTV footage of her leaving the hospital, and in a couple of streets nearby, but then he loses her. He’s using every trick he has to find her, but so far, no leads. Shit.

Apparently the shrink at Harborview who made the initial assessment of Leila has said her actions constitute a typical cry for help, and that he doesn’t believe her to be truly at risk. That's why no one prevented her from discharging herself. 

He’s categorized her as one step from suicidal ideation, and said that most people in this category do not actually go on to commit suicide. I suppose this is somewhat reassuring to learn, but I’ll still feel a lot happier once we’ve tracked Leila down and got her the help she clearly needs.

I’m so caught up in all this that it’s not until I get a worried text from Ana asking if I’ve arrived safely that I realize I have been remiss in not letting her know, so I quickly text back and apologize. I’m not used to having people worry about me like this, but I find I like it. I find it heart-warming that Ana is thinking about me and cares about me.

Christ, I can't wait to get this situation sorted out and for Ana to come home tomorrow. I feel a dull ache in my chest when I think about her. Fuck, I miss her so much, especially after the great time we had together in Georgia. 

And I love what she said in her sleep. Makes me feel more secure, knowing that she said she wouldn’t leave me. But I’m still not going to tell her what she said, however much she tries to wheedle it out of me in her emails. And when she growls at me in her email, it puts me in mind of my own cat – my cat o’ nine tails in my playroom. Hmm that has possibilities. Intriguing thought that Ana has innocently set in motion there.


Much as I want to be at the airport to collect Anastasia myself, I’m waiting on an important call from Welch regarding a link he’s turned up to a previous shrink Leila consulted. I don’t want to discuss this while I’m in the car with Ana, so I send Taylor to collect her, knowing that once she gets back here to Escala, I’ll have her all to myself.

I am desperate to see her. I’m excited because I need her so badly, and as ever I can't wait to fuck her. But I also know that her presence here will help calm me, because I’ve been on edge ever since we got the news about Leila.

Taylor has done a complete sweep and reassessment of all security measures at the apartment, and he’s changed all the entry numbers as a precautionary measure. He is at a loss to understand how Leila could have made her way in, as the entry numbers are always changed whenever a member of staff - including a sub – leaves.

I’m concerned for Gail, but she seems fine, none the worse for her experience, and I reassure her that I don't hold her to blame for letting Leila leave. She handled a difficult situation very professionally and I'm grateful to her for keeping a calm head in a crisis.

“The poor girl, she just seemed strangely lifeless somehow. Her eyes were glazed over, and she just kept repeating, like some kind of a mantra, that she had to see you, that she’d do anything for her Master, and then she just suddenly lost it and started shouting and screaming…” she explains,  as we sit in the kitchen at Escala, Taylor with his arm protectively around her shoulders. 

Although they know that I am aware of their relationship, as true professionals they never normally show any kind of display of affection in my presence, but I understand that this is not a normal every day kind of situation Gail’s just been through.

I see a look pass between her and Taylor. I know they’re both well aware of what goes on in my playroom, but I would still rather it wasn’t a topic that we openly discussed.

“You were lucky not to have been injured by that fucking razor blade you wrested from her,” Jason practically growls at her, as he tightens his grip on her shoulder.


“Oh Jason, stop with the fussing,” she insists. “I knew what I was doing, and I knew she didn’t really mean to do any harm. It was just a cry for help, I'm sure.”

But I’m with Taylor here – I know how I’d feel if it had been Ana dealing with a crazy woman alone in the apartment.

“The sooner we find her, the sooner she’ll get that help. Let’s hope Welch turns up something a bit more promising before too much longer.” I tell them grimly.

~~~

“No trace…okay…Yes.” Shit, I’d really hoped this situation would have been sorted out by the time Ana returned, but it seems we’re still no nearer to tracking Leila down. Dead end, after dead end, is all Welch has come up with so far. How can she have just disappeared like this?

Anastasia. I sense her presence before I see her, as a bolt of electricity shoots through me. I turn around, and there she is. And suddenly my world is a much better place. She looks beautiful, standing there in a sexy short skirt, showing off her great legs and newly acquired suntan from the Georgia sunshine.

“Keep me informed,” I snap at Welch, as I terminate the call.

I can't get over to Ana fast enough, as I shrug off my grey suit jacket and undo my tie. I wrap my arms around her and pull her tightly against me. Fuck, she feels so good. I pull her pony tail to tilt her head up so I can kiss her, kiss her really thoroughly and deeply. There is no finesse to my kiss, just raw, desperate need, but she matches me with her response.

 Clearly she needs this just as much as I do, as she moans and tightly knots her fingers in my hair in the way that I love, because it shows she wants to possess me too. Our tongues enact an erotic dance together, and we both understand that we need to let our bodies enact this passionate dance too, without delay, now.

“I’m so glad you’re back. Shower with me – now,” I command her breathlessly. Let’s start afresh, wash all this shit away, relax together under some calming water. I grab her hand and lead her to my bathroom.

“I like your skirt. It’s very short. You have great legs,” I tell her appreciatively. I can't take my eyes off her as I take my shoes and socks off. I drink her in, feasting my eyes after being deprived of her company for far too long, for what feels like forever. She takes her shoes off too, and then I can't wait any longer. I have to have her now, here, this minute.

I back her up against the wall, kissing her everywhere in a frenzy of need. I push her skirt up around her waist, and then run my hands up her thighs to feel her silky smooth skin.

“Are you still bleeding?” I ask.

“No,” she confirms.

“Good.”

I drop to my knees in front of her to peel off her simple cotton panties, so she’s naked from the waist down. God, she looks and smells fucking amazing, and seeing her breathless and panting with need for me sends me even crazier.

I force her legs apart to gain access to her clitoris with my tongue and mouth, circling and nibbling, sucking and teasing her relentlessly, because this is going to be really quick once I take her, so I need her to be ready. She tips her head back and groans in delight as her fingers pull at my hair. My tongue continues to work at her, lapping and swirling until I feel her body starting to twitch and quicken. My job done, I release her and grab her face with both hands, holding her firmly to kiss her, thrusting my tongue in her mouth so she can taste her own arousal. 

Now it’s time.

I undo my fly and let my rock hard erection spring free. I grab the backs of her legs and lift her up.

“Wrap your legs around me, baby,” I command, desperate to be inside her now.

She quickly complies, as she wraps her arms around my neck to support herself.

So now I thrust into her hard, sharp, and deep. She takes all of me as she groans loudly. This is what we both crave. Total immersion in each other. Me in her, her in me. Her tight, wet hotness engulfing my cock, greedily swallowing every last bit, right up to the hilt. We are as one again, as we are meant to be, as we should be. Together. No one else on the planet exists at this moment.

I grab hold of her butt cheeks so I can start moving. In and out, trying to keep it slow at first, trying to savor every exquisite stroke of her lushness. Slowly in… and then out, her silkiness sliding over me. In and then out again… soft velvet kisses for my cock. In and then out again…

But it’s impossible to remain at such a slow pace. She’s too tempting. It’s been too long, and she feels too fucking good. I can’t hold back any longer. I lose control and speed up, thrusting, pushing, pounding, but I need more, still more, I have to drive in deeper, ever deeper, harder….

Ana explodes around me as she comes, and then I let go with a final satisfyingly hard thrust deep into her, releasing loudly, groaning in ecstasy.

Fuck, that was good. Fuck, I needed that. Fuck, she needed it too.

As we come down from our amazing high, I slowly pull out of her and help her to stand again.

“You seem pleased to see me,” she murmurs with a sweet little smile.

“Yes, Miss Steele, I think my pleasure is pretty self-evident. Come – let me get you in the shower.”

We are both somewhat calmer now, and as I get undressed, we talk.

“How was your journey?”

“Fine, thank you. Thanks once again for first class. It really is a much nicer way to travel,” she smiles, then adds rather nervously, “I have some news.”

“Oh?”

“I have a job.”

I smile at her. Of course I already know about this, but I like listening to her telling me her news.

“Congratulations, Miss Steele. Now will you tell me where?” Have to play along, don't I?

“You don’t know?”

“Why would I know?” I shake my head, frowning to be convincing.

“With your stalking capabilities, I thought you might have…” Shit, she’s already starting to figure me out. Have to watch my step here, because she might be naïve, but she’s not stupid. She won’t understand that it’s all for her own good, for her protection.

“Anastasia, I wouldn’t dream of interfering in your career, unless you asked me to, of course.” I try to look wounded. I didn’t interfere with her career; she got the job all on her own. I’m just buying the company, that’s all. Stalking, control freak - yes that’d be me. But I let her get the job all on her own.

“So you have no idea of which company?”

“No. I know there are four publishing companies in Seattle – so I'm assuming it’s one of them.” Just a little white lie. It won’t hurt. And actually, I didn’t know shit about publishing houses in Seattle until last week. Turns out SIP should be a good deal. Thanks Ana.

“SIP.”

“Oh, the small one, good. Well done.” I kiss her forehead. “Clever girl. When do you start?” Monday, she starts. Maybe she’ll wonder how I know it’s the small one? Careful, Grey.

“Monday.”

“That soon eh? I’d better take advantage of you while I still can. Turn round.”

I undress her, then bury my nose in her hair, so I can breathe in her wonderful scent, her usual wonderful heady mix of innocence and sex that I can’t explain. It’s just the scent of Anastasia, and I take a deep long fix of it. It calms me like nothing else, and I imagine this must be how a heroin addict feels when he gets a fix. I'm totally addicted to Anastasia.

I have the shower water really hot for us, to expunge the detritus of recent events. As I start to carefully and thoroughly wash her delightful body, I feel her tense up.

“I have something else to tell you,” she murmurs, as I massage her shoulders.

“Oh, yes?”

“My friend José’s photography show is opening Thursday in Portland.” He’s no fucking friend. He wants into your panties. He wants what’s mine.

“Yes, what about it?” I manage to ask civilly, as I halt my washing duties.

“I said I would go. Do you want to come with me?” No, I fucking well don't want to go, and I certainly don't want Ana to go. I don’t want her anywhere near him. But hang on a minute Grey, think about it. If you try to forbid her, she’ll go anyway. Alone. So it’s best if you take her, make sure the filthy slime ball fucker doesn’t get anywhere near her, or so much as touch her.

“What time?”

“The opening is at 7:30 p.m.”

I gently kiss her ear, and exert great self-control as I quietly reply.

“Okay.” See, that wasn't so hard, was it? “Were you nervous about telling me?”

“Yes. How can you tell?”

“Anastasia, your whole body’s just relaxed.” But at least she told you. That’s a good thing. She’s being honest with you.

“Well, you just seem to be, um … on the jealous side.” Oh baby, you really have no idea how far ‘on the jealous side’ I am. On a scale of 1- 10, I probably rate about 1,000-  and that’s a conservative estimate.

“Yes, I am. And you’d do well to remember that. But thank you for asking. We’ll take Charlie Tango.” That’ll make the evening a bit more pleasurable anyhow.

I can't let her wash me when she asks if she can, but as I gently kiss her neck by way of an apology, I feel the stirrings of another erection that will need taking care of.

“Put your hands on the wall, Anastasia. I’m going to take you again,” I murmur, having already decided to have her from behind this time.

I can never have enough of her it seems.

  4. WOW, just WOW. As always you do not disappoint, today is my birthday and I was very eager for this chapter so when I woke this morning I have to admit I was disappointed without this chapter, imagine my great birthday surprise when I saw the post that it was ready. Your addition in the story about Lelia was really good ( I mean really good) I think it gave so much insight to the story that was much needed. Thank you for making a great birthday even greater I love your writing I think you give us all the "more" we wanted. Until next chapter ( we all know what is in store for us next) I as always eagerly wait on the edge of my seat. Thank you,thank you, thank you!!!!

  5. I guess milling around the blog all weekend paid off. Thanks for the new chapter. My heart flutters for the lead up to this break-up.

    To be very honest with you, this chapter was not as good as your others, but I think that was more so because it was mostly dialogue straight from the book. But it was really great to hear that Leila background which I always wondered about. That insight made this chapter better. Thanks again and looking forward to the next chapter. Your loyal fan! :D

    1. Hi Brooke. A new chapter as a reward for milling eh?
      I take on board your comment about this chapter not being as good as some others, and would probably agree with you. It's always a tricky balance in staying true to the book, but also bringing something fresh to it. If I skip chunks, some folk say I'm rushing things. This is why I'm debating how far to go with this - I don't want to just repeat the books line for line. I'd find it boring to write, and I much prefer adding the unseen areas, such as Leila's back story.
      So we'll see how it goes :)

    2. Well, you are doing a great job and you are definitely a talented writer. I look forward to some of your original stuff, so keep us posted. But I do love my CG fix so if you have the time and energy, please keep it coming.

      I definitely understand what you're saying, because I may be disappointed as well not staying true to the book. That is what made all of us fall in love with 'fifty'. Also not staying true to the feel of the book is why other fan fic don't make the grade. Thanks for keeping up with this.

  11. Terrific chapter! The insight into Christian and Leila's Dom/sub relationship is very interesting. She really is a most pitiful soul. The next chapters well, I know will be awesome as all your chapters are. You are 'the master'! Explaining situations in the book that make more sense now. Kudos!

    Nan :D a truly big fan!

    1. Hi Nan. I think it's interesting to maybe see how Christian had become bored with having compliant subs, even if he hadn't realised himself. I always thought Leila was manipulative and attention seeking, even if she was ill.
      Glad you enjoyed it anyway.

      Delete
  12. Wow, exactly how I would have imagined Leila to be. I used to feel that Ana wasn't going to ever be what Christian wanted but in reading what you wrote, he didn't want one (sub)totally compliant either. I was surprised how quickly you sent that! Your writing always adds perfectly to the books. I might've never felt sorry for Gail nor felt proud of her if it wasn't for this writing you do. ps.I can't wait to read YOUR book. xo

    1. Hi Joni.

      Glad your vision of Leila matched mine. I think you are completely right, Christian gets bored easily, so with his subs, he'd keep pushing them harder to try and get new thrills, but in the end he'd still be bored by them.

      And so of course Ana intrigues him because she is challenging and never boring.

  13. Your creativity excels when you write about Christian's past and the anticipation of the infamous break up is torture!

    And on behalf of everyone who reads your blog....PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE continue writing Christian's POV in Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed!!!! It's therapy for Christian withdrawal!

  16. excellent chpt. i loved how protective taylor was of gail. excellent backstory to leila as well. you totally convey christians all consuming need for her. i laughed out loud when he said his jealousy level was about 1000,and that was being conservative because hes not kidding. i enjoyed the steamy chpt and anticipaton is building for the breakup. it will be good but so sad, he's going to fall utterly to pieces. poor taylor and gail wont know what to do. keep them coming :)

  18. Oh Sweetie, this chapter turned out so perfect. I find myself getting so excited when I know my little tidbits of info are going to show up. I'm kind of silly that way. It's about the only way I am every involved in any story writing, lol. I thought that you did a phenomenal job on Leila. I found that in the EL James version we really had to imagine our own back story w/ her on why she was so "addicted" to Christian, I mean beyond the usual psychosis that she was dealing w/ at the moment. I think that the way you showed her to be devious right from the start really spoke volumes. You mentioned something in here that always had me wondering in the original trilogy as well. How she was able to access the elevator when the codes had been changed. It has always made me wonder if Elena had anything to do w/ this seeings as we know how she really feels about Ana. Also, you did a great job of leaving us wanting more even though we know what is going to happen in the upcoming angsty chapters ;)

    Thanks for another wonderful chapter!

    1. First off Ang, I owe you an apology - I meant to acknowledge your help with my chapter, but I was so tired by the time I posted it I clean forgot. So now I've gone back and added an authors note to thank you for your help :)

      And yes, I think Leila was very devious and manipulative, as we get to see a bit more in later chapters. She knew the safe combination and about the photos Christina kept in there didn't she? So it's no wonder she has Taylor running round in circles I suppose!

      Thanks again :)

    Okay now how brilliant was this chapter. Pretty freaking amazing. Loved the whole Taylor/Gail/Leila backstory. So much was left up in the air about Leila and again you have packaged it up in a nice bow for us. Glad to have some insight and depth into her. I was anticipating what you would come up with and it makes me anxious for the 5 days, wondering what Christian actually is going through during that time. So funny that on a scale of 1-10 he's 1000....conservatively speaking! Now I have a knot in my belly for the next chapter, it's going to be agony! EVERYONE get your tissues ready, the next few chapters are gonna be rough. Thanks for doing this. Your talent really shines through in each chapter. You have really taken EL's character and added so much depth, yet making him so much easier to relate to and understand.

  68. So I've been on holiday with my family and I come home to find three new chapter! YES! The back story you created in chapter 23 of Elena initiating Christian into the BDSM lifestyle fit so perfectly into canon. Furthermore, Lelia's back story with Christian was also brilliant.

    I am so excited for the next chapter. It is one of the areas of the story that never made sense to me. They were SO CLOSE after Georgia and it went pear shaped SO FAST. I understand that Ana asked for the punishment for two reasons: 1) she wanted to prove to herself that she could handle being with Christian in a way he liked and wanted (that she was good for him) and 2) because she wanted show to him that if she could get over and accept the punishments, maybe he could accept her touching him.

    My greater confusion lies in why Christian agreed to give her that severe of a punishment in the first place. I know she ran from him and she rolled her eyes, but I always thought Christian would stick to his original plan and slowly work up the severity of her punishments (regardless of what she asked for.) I thought he was concerned about scaring her off too soon. So it never made sense to me that after the one punishment spanking, the next step would be to whip her with a belt. So that is why I am so keen to see your take on what was happening in Christian's head before, during and after the punishment takes place. I mean what's his reaction going to be while he is whipping her and he hears her begin to cry and scream?

    I can't wait to get Christian's POV during their break-up week, especially now that we know Christian's having her followed around Seattle. Since she never cancelled the call forwarding from her original cell phone to her blackberry, he was intercepting texts, calls and emails. I also am now suspicious that the roses he sent her after her first day of work are bugged in some way, so Christian (thru Welch and Barney) can keep tabs on her. He probably totally knew she wasn't eating before he saw her too. Good stuff is coming for sure! Can't wait! Cheers, Adrena

    1. Hi Adrena.Hope you had a great holiday.

      Well, I've dropped hints as to what I think my explanation of why he acted so harshly towards Ana is, and you'll see when I get to it shortly ;)Then you can judge if if makes sense to you.

      And my word, I think you could get into the surveillance business with bugged flowers!

  70. As always loved this chapter. Interesting insight into Leila, thought you wrote it really well. Can’t wait for more but I’m also dreading it as the break up is coming. Really like how you write Christian and you really capture his emotions (all 50 shades) really well. Have read other fan fictions but find yours easily the best. Must be quite hard for you to write Christian while keeping in character to the book and also bringing new aspects too it but you do a fantastic job. Hope you continue writing wheather it's the story through Christian's POV or something new. Laura PS Also wanted to mention that I love your other story - Doctor Grace Trevelyan Grey meets Anastasia Steele. Really interesting to see Ana and Christian through other peoples eyes. Loved the comment from Mia about hoping Christian wasn’t boring Ana in the boathouse showing her his rowing trophies – if only they knew the truth ;p

    1. Hi Laura Louise. It's always a challenge to balance how closely to follow the book versus bringing in new aspects, and you can't please everyone all the time. So I just do what seems right to me, and so far it seems to be working! I love that Christian's family see him as inexperienced in sexual matters - it makes it a lot of fun to write things through their eyes. I'm glad you enjoyed it too.

  81. I really enjoyed this chapter. The back story about Leila was excellent. I really think you capture Christian's "voice" and can't wait to read your story through the breakup the time between and the reunion. I'm dying to experience what Christian's thoughts and feelings were during that time.

    1. Hi Harper. I think everyone is impatient for me to get to the breakup, but we're nearly there now. Have to make sure I do it justice, so it can't be rushed.

    This is so so so nice of you, I really appreciate it and your so good at it too. You really seem to get into the character of Christian Grey and write the things that we generally feel he would say/do.
