Chapter 187 - The Prediction Part 1

Zachary picked up his wife's call while he's driving her Audi.

"Yes, love? Why do you miss me so much?"

"What are you driving?" She asked quickly.

"I am driving one of your Audi. My car needed to have changed the oil, and something got stuck on the machine. I didn't monitor the car and it's been a while since I last used it. Don't worry my wife, I'll be with you."

"You are in danger. Open your location, right now."

"Okay." Since his phone is on the holder, he immediately opened it and let her locate him.

"Don't hang up."

Then, in just a second, he is already listening to the sound of her motorbike like she's driving it at the full speed.

"Relax, Andy-baby. I am fine."

"You aren't fine. Looked behind you."

He adjusted the rear mirror inside him and saw a car tailing on him. He couldn't see the person, so he moved a little to the side to let the person behind him to pass but the car didn't. So, he stepped on the gas to increase his speed.

The car speed up. The curves on the road was a little blind and zigzag. It's the best way for a killer to kill him. Since he knew the way, he sped up more and didn't expect that he would start firing with one hand using a 9mm handgun. It hit the side mirrors.

He lay low a little and glanced at the rear mirror. He increased his speed and the man did too until he hit the trunk of his car. He lost a little control and he controlled it not to run directly to the cliff. He focused and glanced at his phone.

"Zach?"

"Baby be careful about driving. Okay? I love you." He exceeded the speed limit of the Audi and although there are blind curves, he made sure that he's on the right path. He glanced at the rear mirror and he pulled out another gun. Zachary removed his seatbelt and get ready for whatever would happen.

Zachary saw a perfect moment to die in the killer's eyes. He lessens the speed and the man hit him from the back. He didn't hit the break and just turned the wheel to the cliff and hit the break.

***

Andromeda is only one kilometer away when she heard from the headset of her helmet the sound of crashing. On the other curve, she saw the small car run to the cliff and the man from the other car got out and watched as the Audi started crashing down.

Her eyes get fiercer and she reached out a Battuta and hit it on the air as it elongates and then she hit the man right on the head. She stopped her motorbike and turned it around. She stepped out and looked at the Audi fell.

"Zachary!" She screamed. She kept looking around and then reached the edge of the cliff.

Her mind is blank and a mess. She can't live without him.

"Zachary…" She almost threw herself to the cliff to die with him, but a hand reached her.

"I'm here." Zachary hugged her from behind and she sobbed. He pulled her out from the cliff and reached her face.

"Why didn't you have any bodyguards?!" She shouted at him.

"Honey, they need to have a holiday with their family. I just dropped the gifts."

She's still crying as she reached her bruised arms and a little cut on his face. Then she glowered at the unconscious Nicholas. She strode to him and still with her Battuta, she hit his arm and stomach. Zachary hugged her to calm her down.

"It's okay. I'm fine." He kissed her cheek just to calm her down. Andromeda pushed him a little and went to her motorbike to get a string.

She took it to string it to his wrist and tie both of his wrists to his back and then his ankles. She called her men for backup and an ambulance. She wasn't satisfied with cuffing the guy and she punched his nose.

She exhaled and faced her husband and reached his bruised face. Zachary wiped away those tears and kissed her forehead. Andromeda is so worried and so angry at that moment. He needed to calm her down, so he hugged her until her body isn't in an adrenaline rush and that she's not shaking.

"You sure that you are okay?" She asked and ripped his shirt to check if she got anything bleeding. There are nothing and just bruises.

"Yes, I am."

She exhaled and hugged him tightly. Andromeda is so terrified a while ago and she nearly loses herself again after she saw how the Audi got smashed by the other car. Although they have misunderstandings and didn't have a good start, she only gave her heart to him and she will instantly die if she lost him.

She kept her eye to Nicholas as they wait for the backup. It didn't take long when their backup came with a helicopter. They took Nicholas and took him to the armored car and then the helicopter took them to the hospital to check him up from bruises and she insisted to get him an MRI and X-ray which is overacting.

But she just wanted to make sure and her husband is comforting her. In front of everyone, she's strong and she never shows any weakness although her wife nearly died. Zachary held her as they travel home. She's still furious and the mixed emotions are making her mad.

"Baby, I am fine." He took her to their bedroom and let her sponge bath him. Then after that, she tossed the towel on the floor and she shoved her face to his chest and started sobbing. The cry was like crushing him slowly.

Zachary nearly died and if he didn't use his head to survive, she will also be lost herself. Just like before. He regretted everything, start from leaving her and trying to forget her. In fact, although he had so many lovers after he ended his relationship with her, he never forgot her for two years. He's also dying slowly, and his lovers hated him whenever he spoke her name.

Around his house and even his office, he fantasized about her every night and he cried every night whenever he dreamed about her bleeding a lot. He always thought to himself that he's never enough for her. Now, he understood that those reasons are just an excuse because he's a jerk and he's afraid to lose her physically.

"Hush, I won't leave again. I'm sorry."

She cried harder and it takes minutes for her to stop crying and now she's hiccupping. He reached the glass of water and make her drink it. He gathered her hair and tie it. He adjusted the air conditioner and then helped her removed her clothes and then he reached a clean towel and wiped her sweats.

"Don't leave me, okay?" She said.

"I won't." He kissed her forehead and then went to the walk-in closet and pick her silk negligee then he put it on her. He turned off the lights and then he snuggled to her and make sure that she will fall asleep with a sweet dream.

"Zach."

"Yes, love?"

"I will die if you die."

"Baby, please live for me okay? No matter what."

"Live for me as well…" She reached his face. "I only give my everything to you from the very start. When I told you that I love you, it's the start that I give my life to you."

"I'm sorry my love. That I left you…"

"I understand that you are afraid. I already forgive you. This time, it won't happen again." She oath.

"I know my love…" He kissed her forehead. "The first time I laid my eyes on you, I knew to myself that you are the one. I can't live without you, Andy. Two years of being away from you, are like living in an abyss."

"Zach… my heart and my soul only belongs to you." She kissed his nose. "My body and my life are in your hands."

"I know…" He murmured. "I am already holding your body." He grinned. She giggled and snuggled to her more.
