Before the Grey family's annual charity ball, Christian takes Ana to a beauty salon, Esclava. The salon is owned by Elena Lincoln. Elena is Christian's former dominant. She introduced him to BDSM. Ana is angry that Elena and Christian are business partners.
When they arrive home, Ana and Christian find out that Leila has vandalized Ana's car. At Ana's apartment, Leila threatens her with a gun. Christian and his bodyguard, Jason Taylor, enter. Christian controls Leila by becoming her dominant. Ana, seeing Christian's need to be dominant, leaves. She returns hours later. She needs time to consider marrying Christian.
