Author's Note
Hi everyone! I am still continuing on with 50 Shades of Blood but I thought I would come up with a different story that was more from Christian's side rather than Anastasia's. I hope you like this one as well. I am very new to this still as this is my second fan fiction so please bear with me. Please review this as I do welcome feedback from the readers as you are giving up your time reading my stories.
Thanks,
Isabella
Another day, another assignment
I'm walking into Chief Taylor's office. I wonder who I will be assigned to today. It's a gloomy day here in Seattle. I'm walking through the office with every single female staring at me. Nothing special here ladies, it's just a face. They don't know the shit that I've had to go through to get where I am today. I knock on the chief's office door.
"Come in!" He shouts through the door. I walk in and sit down opposite him.
"You wanted to see me, Chief?" I ask being polite. I really do wish I can become my own boss but Taylor helped me out big time with this job.
"Yes - do you know who Raymond Steele is?" He looks at me with his hands clasped together. Who doesn't know of Raymond Steele? One of the popular politicians in the US at the moment.
"Yes sir - he's a politician. He's currently running for Senator I believe." I state.
"His family have been receiving death threats from opposing parties. Now he understands it's pretty much common knowledge politicians get dislike but he is concerned mostly about his daughter. I have assigned you as her CPO until further notice. There has been reason to believe that she may be in danger." He orders. Oh really? That's the assignment?
"Seriously Chief? Babysitting? That's my assignment?" I scoff at him. He gives me a death glare.
"It's not babysitting Grey. She's in her twenties but she has been subject to some of those threats and being like any father, he is taking precaution. He and his daughter are on their way here now to meet you. I expect you to be professional and polite." He insists. I can't believe this. I've helped solve proper assignments. Heck, I was even assigned to Barack Obama - I don't need to babysit some spoilt politician's daughter!
I've got to do this though. "Yes sir - I understand and I will do my job as always." I assure him. He leans forward.
"Look Grey, I know what it must feel like but you're the best I got and he's specifically asking for the best, no expense spared." You damn right I am the best! I didn't spend months having all the shit done to me and putting up with for years for this!
"So what do I have to do? Make sure no-one comes in close contact with her? Travel with her? What's my assignment?" I ask him.
"You must follow her at all times. Wherever she goes, you go. You will need to travel with her at some points but that's all paid for by us so no need to worry about that." This job pays good money. I'm not worried about that, I just don't want to be babysitting some stupid kid.
*Knock, Knock*
Andrea pops her head in the small gap opened by the door. She looks at me and winks at me before looking at the chief. Oh my god, just once - stop oogling me.
"Chief - Mr Steele and his daughter are here." The chief stands up and buttons up his blazer.
"Thanks Andrea. Send them in please." He orders her. "Now be nice, Christian. Remember - happy customer, happy business." Yeah, yeah - whatever. Let's just get this over and done with so I can deal with some important shit.
Mr Steele walks in first. Not really what I expected in person. Looks a lot different in person than on the television. He looks more tired in person. The chief approaches Mr Steele with his hand extended out to shake his hand. "Mr Steele - my name is Jason Taylor, it is a pleasure to meet you, sir." Mr Steele looks Taylor from head to toe. "The pleasure is all mine as long as you look after my girl. She deserves the best." Raymond states. Taylor smiles at Raymond's bluntness.
"Of course sir. This is Christian Grey - he is our very best CPO. I have assigned him to your case." Taylor gestures to me and I straighten my hand out to shake his. "Mr Steele." I curtly nod my head in my greeting and he reciprocates. "Annie - meet your new bodyguard." We are looking around but no-one is can be seen. As far as we know it's just me, Taylor and Raymond in the room. Raymond starts to tut in annoyance.
"For god's sake Annie, stop hiding. It's all going to be fine." He steps out of the way and I cannot move my eyes away from this beauty. Gorgeous long chestnut brown hair flowing down in waves past her collarbone. Slim and short in height, I would say 5"3? She is looking down at first staring at her hands which she is fidgeting but then looks up at me through her eyelashes. The most gorgeous blue eyes I've ever seen. As blue as a blue diamond, sparkling at me. Oh boy, I'm going to have a problem with this case.
"Well go on then, say something Annie!" She looks up at him looking sad. I instantly feel sorry for her.
"Dad - I don't need a bodyguard. I'm not breakable you know!" She moans. What if I want to protect you? What did I just say?
"How many times do I have to tell you young lady? People have made threats, I cannot and will not risk your safety, do you understand me?" He bluntly asks. She nods her head. I step forward to make the first move. Well here it goes.
"Miss Steele - it's nice to meet you. My name is Christian Grey." I extend my hand out to shake hers. She looks at me warily before stepping forward and puts her hand in mine. I don't know why but I feel like I have just been electrocuted. I flinch a little at the feel of her touch.
"Please call me Ana. Miss Steele is for strangers and seeing as you are my bodyguard, I prefer to be called Ana."
"Sorry Miss Steele but I'm not on any first name basis with my clients." She rolls her eyes at my answer. Oh now, do you really want to do that with Daddy looking at you?
"I like you Christian - professional. You best look after my little girl. I do not want anything happening to her or touching her, do you understand me?" Oh believe me, I don't want that either. Oh my god, listen to yourself Grey!
"I completely understand Sir. I won't let anything happen to Miss Steele." I assure him, He nods at my sincerity.
"You will start tomorrow morning. Meet us at the house and Annie will tell you her agenda for the day. She goes to college at WSU so you will have to go there to make sure the security checks are in place." He orders.
"Absolutely sir. I'll gather the information first." I state. I look at the chief. "I will go and get the information from Andrea now Chief so I can started on this assignment. See you tomorrow Mr Steele, Miss Steele." I shake hands with Raymond but Ana is staring at the floor. Is she shy? I walk out of the chief's office and let out my breath I was holding. Man, keep control Grey. You can do this. I shake off the tension and walk to Andrea's desk. "Hi Andrea, can I have the information for the Steele assignment please?" She looks me up and down as if I'm meat. Oh god. I roll my eyes, this is so annoying. "Of course Christian." She grabs a file from the drawer and stands up, walks round her desk leaning on and extends the file out seductively. Sorry it's going to take a lot more to do that to get through to me.
