Christian's POV
Ana, oh Ana. My woman is getting more brazen. I decided to call Taylor so that I can go home to my family. I packed all the paperwork, closed my Mac and looked out. Nothing can beat the view of the Sound.

"Mr. Grey." Taylor said as he entered the room. "Ask Chase if I still have paperwork or if I have to tell Ana something." I said, not removing my eyes at the view. "Yes sir." He answered and he closed the door of the office.

I looked around Ana's office, and I walked towards her bookshelf. There are works of Hardy, Brontë, and Shakespeare. There are also personal decor: a Virgin Mary figure, paperweights from the countries we've been to, photos of Teddy, photos of her and Kate.

At the bottom shelf, I saw a black heart-shaped tin. A message is scrawled using paint: the one who owns my heart. I opened the can and I saw more photos of Teddy... and me. Photos of me cut from magazines and newspapers, and photos she candidly captured.

There is my handkerchief that she said she would launder, the pencil she borrowed when she interviewed me, corks of wines we drank together, and the bracelets I gave her during our honeymoon and her birthday.

My sentimental girl.

I was interrupted by Taylor discreetly clearing his throat. "Mr. Grey, Chase wants to you to say her regards to Ana, and that she is a lucky woman." Taylor said, his voice completely serious. I surpressed a laugh.

"Let's go. I want to go home to my family." I said as I closed the tin and went out of the office.

Anastasia's POV
I went inside Hobbes, carrying Teddy in one arm, and started looking for books. I saw some books published by Grey Publishing, and read its synopsis.

...A man who is searching for a woman he lost...
...A woman who indulged in a dark world, and met a dark, dark man...

I exhaled. "Woah." I exclaimed as I continued looking for books. I saw the children's book area and grabbed books by Dr. Seuss. I'm sure Christian would love if Teddy would be introduced early to great books. I also grabbed some coloring books for me and Christian, so that if we become hot-handed, we will just color. Funny, right?

I continued walking around when I realized someone is following me around. I looked back and saw a tall, buff man, holding his own pile of books. His blond hair is tousled, and he's wearing a white shirt with black jeans.

"Excuse me? How can I help you?" I asked. He smiled. He is gorgeous, but I'm already married to the most gorgeous man in the world. "You look like you are having a hard time finding books." He said as he started walking towards me. I started to slowly walk backwards.

"Not actually." I said as I continued walking. Get lost. "Sorry. I'm Stephan. And you are?" He asked. "None of your business." I said as I walked rapidly to the counter. I paid all the books and walked back to the car.

"Something wrong, Ana?" Gail asked. "Nothing, Gail. Let's go home."

Who was that?
