Chapter 6

With that, everyone lowered their guns as their bosses stopped fighting. With everywhere seemingly calm. Zack assistant opened up the door and led her out.

The atmosphere still wasn't safe, Xavier didn't seem to want to let the contract go but at the sight of Guan. He retraced hid steps and chuckled.

"You know what, never mind. You can keep the contract. I don't need It but mind you. I will loose the next one."

As he spoke. He left with his men but as makes his way out, he turns back to a steal a glance of Guan. Zack interjected his view which made Xavier hold a smirk on his face and left.

'That bastaerd... he left the contract because of Guan, could it because of he thinks she is his mate? no ...I won't allow that. I won't let him take her away from me.'

Obviously, he would be so possessive over with the sudden event that occured today. He gotten the contract all with the help of his mate presence with him but he could have at the same time lost her to his enemy.

He heaved a sigh and held onto his Guan's hand. She was shocked when he did it, for him to have know she was standing beside him, his sense were as sharp as the edge of a knife.

********

The drive was a smooth one. Zack didn't hesitate to leave immediately. He didn't trust Xavier, he could be up to anything, he didn't trust him one bit and his was definitely not gonna stick around and await for another ambush.

Nothing must happen to Miss Guan Frederick, for some reason he had this soft spot for her. He couldn't understand why but he just felt soft around her.

He felt so awkward about it what to do? she was his mate, he couldn't deny that , especially not now that Xavier has he dirty eyes on her.

"Boss... is everything okay?" , Zack's Assistant; Aaron inquired has he drove. He looked at the mirror and noticed that Guan was looking through the window glass next to her. "Miss. Guan... you?"

She nodded assertively but Zack didn't make any means to respond. His mind was there and elsewhere. Guan took her time to observe him. Her wolf kept hammering to get close but she kept holding herself back.

"Who was that anyway?" , Guan started , breaking the tranquility in the car. Aaron even coughed out at the mention of his name.

"We shouldn't really be talking about rodent. We can talk about something else. Like how light shade is gonna go ...."

Guan frowned. "... you expect me not to ask... I mean you just expect me to forget about everything. We could have died today."

" Well we didn't.", Aaron responded. " Don't reason it too much and look on the bright side, we are well and alive. No broken bones ..no torn---"

"Just stop it Aaron... I don't mean to be rude but for real, not like I don't know him... but who is he too you? your rival? well that's fine but what the fuss all about? some contract?"

" Well this ain't some contract. Just so you know.". Zack said indifferently. " It isn't just any ordinary contract so how about you just try and forget it."

" Well If you say so then.", Guan sighed and looked away.

" And here we are Miss Frederick.", Aaron assistant announced as they arrived at the front of her house.

" Alright...",she was about to her down when Zack spoke. " Should I come with you."

"No ...it alright. Besides I am sure you have important places to be."

" yeah I figured but it doesn't mean now does it?", Zack said.

Guan sighed. "There's really no need sir. Thanks for the ride and I don't think we have to continue this whole mate thing again right?"

" Actually." Zack gave it a thought. "I figured but alright.".

Guan stepped out and made her way into the house. Every seemed quite dark, she thought and decided to head upstairs but the light came on. "So where have you been and what are your wearing!."

Her father shouted. revealed to be sitting down in he living room in the previous darkness. "Are you going to talk or should make you?" , he got up from he was sitting and walked up to her.

" Where did you go all dressed up like that young lady?"

Guan sighed and sort to walk out on him but he grabbed her hands and threw her backwards. "Don't even try to walk out on me young lady. "I asked, where were you."

Tasha came downstairs and saw the commotion that was at bay. "Hmph, I guess she's going to have it this night."

"Look...dad, I am not your daughter. You said it yourself. I am noting to you. Go and face Tasha instead, she's your real daughter. I'm not."

" Don't try to tell me what and what not to do Young lady." Her father said indifferently. "Who did you go out with...it was definitely not Drake this time so tell me who it was that have you this luxury."

Guan sighed. " You don't need to know".

" Don't make me ---"

" Hit me? them go ahead. Besides, that all you ever do. You've treated me like you care. It not like you even care about me. You're just faking it. So please, stop! and let me be " , Guan begged, feeling very down and broken but she tried to look strong in front of her dad.

"You aren't going anywhere until you tell me who you went out with today."

Tasha joined her father. " You heard daddy , where did you go today."

" Answer me!" He shouted and raised his hands up only for growl to reverberate from the entrance.

" She was with me.".
