The Promised Bride

26

They all left out and headed to the property the meeting wasn't to take place until after dark but it was already 6 so night fall wasn't to far off
Most of the day was spent going over the plan with a few good stories that they told to lightly up the mood

A team was tracking Anastasia Grandfather so they would know when he was coming

The ride out was about an hour it gave Anastasia time to get back into her Adult Mind Frame and prepare herself for her interaction with her Grandfather

They turned down a treelined driveway as they went farther down it the land began to open up to show the Home , Cabin  what looked like a small pond
Farther back beyond the home there was what looked like a Barn that's where the cars were now parked out of plan sight the only car was the one Anastasia Uncle used to follow them it was parked right up beside the house so when you came down the driveway you would see the car

" Anastasia I want to set you up in the basement of the house there are plenty of secret passageways through out the house for us to be able to get to you in a hurry , What I think will work the best is having you alone in the basement, we will text your Grandfather letting him know you are in the basement make it sound like your Uncle is in the bathroom " Axel said

" I got his clothes so I will put his jacket over the chair in the living room so when he walks in he will think he's here " Brandon said with his hand on a suite case that was her uncles

" Gabriel you need to touch up her bruises and did you bring a robe for her to keep on until he gets here" Henry asked

" Yeah I did and I will let me get set up then I will "

It seemed like they all knew what needed to be done so Anastasia kept out of the way until North called her downstairs to the basement to get ready for her part
She sat In the chair wrapped in a Robe that smells like All of her husbands it's soft and warm which is nice the basement is rather chilly and damp

Gabriel came over with his bag of tricks to make her bruises look fresh and new again so she had to get out of the robe good thing it wasn't going to be long before Her Grandfather would be there they had gotten the notification that he was on the road headed this way

Once Anastasia was fixed up looking like she had been beaten Marc tied her up but it was a trick knot it looked like it was tight but all she had to do was tug on it in a  certain direction and she could get out it
Before they all dispersed to different areas They all gave her a kiss on the forehead or if it was her husbands they kissed her on lips too then left to go hide
Each one had an ear piece in their ears to keep communication open

Luke was in the back corner of the basement hiding , Nathan was in hiding in the laundry area behind two huge rolling carts , Brandon was behind the bookcase , Marc was in the

Hearing the rumble of tires Anastasia took a deep breath in and let it out trying to calm her nerves even though she knew she was safe it still scared her

" He's here Little Ninja " Luke whispers

" Okay Ninja Luke " Anastasia replies trying to keep her voice even and without emotion

"it's going to be okay nothing is going to happen to you " Nathan said from the laundry area

" Tank you Boo Boo"

The front porch  creaked as footsteps walked up then Anastasia heard the footsteps walk into the house they walked a few feet into the house
