The Corporate gala run its course till a little after midnight. For some, they used that chance to party a little. For people like Zach, he left before things got to that. His purpose had been achieved; he was Amy\'s eyes and ears.

The woman had no idea what hearing her voice in his ear at such an occasion did to him. Would there be a future where they could physically be together and keep each other company at such boring functions? The possibility was becoming more likely. He would taste the waters tonight.

On the other hand, Amy was sat in bed with her computer on her lap and snacks beside her to keep her company. She rested a hand on her belly that was protruding under the sheets and bit her nails from the other hand as she kept her eyes peeled on the computer.

She was running a face recognition analysis after finding an interesting picture in Greco\'s system. She knew she could not do anything because of that person on their side who could detect her presence but could only lurk. That was how she had been monitoring them for the past few months. And now after their encounter with Zach, she got curious. Her phone chimed.

Ahismine@***.com: I\'m home.

She secured a connection with him almost immediately.

"Hey", he said. His voice was steady and quiet though his heart said otherwise. He was currently walking up the stairs leading to his room, phone in one hand while the other was stuffed in his pocket.

Amy\'s gaze fell on the time stamp of her computer and arched a brow. She thought back to how long it took him when he left home for the gala and compared to the time it took for him to get home.

"That took a while. Did you stop by your boyfriend\'s place before going home?"

Zach laughed at the bitterness in her tone. He had been disappointed when she didn\'t comment earlier, it seemed she knew when to pick a fight. As calm as he looked, he had been a case of nerves on his way home, wondering how their talk would go. But this was the thing that bothered her the most.

"Are you jealous, wifey?" He said with a happy smile on his face.

"I should have known when you said there are no other women", she clicked her tongue in disapproval.

,m Zach had just walked in his room and used one hand to loosen his tie and undo his shirt buttons. "For the earth, there\'s only one moon."

"And?" She asked in clear confusion.

Zach smiled as he said in his deep voice, "For me, there\'s only you."

Amy\'s lips stretched into a beautiful smile as she covered her blushing face with her hands. She felt like she was melting in a puddle by that one statement. Why is something so cheesy making her blush like this? Not wanting him to know the effect he had on her, she forcefully cleared her throat to which he smiled knowing the reason behind that.

"We need to talk about a lot", she said as she stuffed her long fingers in a bag of M and Ms before throwing one into her mouth.

"And that we do. What do you want to know? I\'ll tell you everything", he promised.

"Did your assistant break into Greco\'s lab?" She asked in a serious tone. She was not going to beat around the bush.

"He did", Zach mimicked her tone. He was shirtless exposing his muscular upper frame and well defined abs. He was still in his suit trousers with his belt and zipper undone exposing his black boxers. He had sat down when he heard her bring up the talk.

"Zachery", she started feeling disappointed and he understood this. "I\'m sure you understand how worried I am and how serious this situation is. But why would you do that?"

"These may sound like excuses and I know you\'re disappointed and my actions may seem wreckless, but believe me when I say that it\'s because I care about you; I\'m worried about you Amy. Everyday, I can\'t help but wonder how you\'re doing, where you are, and whether you\'re safe or not. But at the same time, I know I can\'t ask you or push you to tell me because I understand the position you\'re in. So, I can\'t help but jump on anything that will give me a clue about you and the situation itself."

Zach stopped talking when he heard a soft sob from the other end. He leaned over bad rested his elbows on his knees. His heart grew heavy at the heart breaking sound.

"I\'m sorry", Amy whispered as she sobbed.

She felt extremely guilt after hearing his reasoning. She never once considered how he would take the situation maybe because she didn\'t think it was as important to him. She was only focused on keeping her distance and him in the dark as her way of protecting him. But after tonight, she was starting to question her thinking. She looked down at her belly and caressed it as tears trickled down her face.

"No baby, don\'t say that. Please don\'t cry", Zach\'s voice grew even more gentle at this point as he understood her.

"I\'m sorry, Zachery. I\'m really sorry. I just... I..."

"Ssh! It\'s okay, don\'t say another word. Don\'t cry. Listen to me, I won\'t push you into doing something you\'re not ready to do. I won\'t", he promised.

His heart broke even though he uttered such words. He wanted to know everything but he meant the words he said to her. He would wait for her to tell him herself. He would continue to be by her side and help her while looking for her.

Amy felt so weak, unable to utter the words that were at the tip of her mouth. She was grateful at the same time heart broken that he wasn\'t pushing her. But then, she was not sure what the result of the facial recognition analysis would mean for Zach\'s safety. Something else suddenly came to mind.

"Zachery", she called out with a sniffle as she wiped her tears.

"Yes, baby."

The butterflies in her stomach did summersaults when she heard that. "Um, how did you know about Hot Head?"

Zach smiled when the man was brought up. "He\'s someone I know and George found out that Greco would be collaborating with the same group that Hot Head has been after. How about you, do you know him?"

"I helped him infiltrate their ring I just didn\'t know it was the Dark Waters. But now that they know he\'s after them, it won\'t be so easy for him", she commented.

Zach smiled when heard the first part of her sentence. Was this fate or what? As he mulled over this, he heard the sound of her laptop sound notification go off.

"Oh?"

"What\'s up?" He asked in curiosity.

"I was running an F.R.A using the captured image of Mr. Stewart\'s break in", she said before letting out a sigh.

"About that....."
