His Tesoro (Completed)

Chapter Three

Edited.
Zachary:

As soon as she got out of the car i remembered one thing. I should go and talk to that manager of hers so that lady doesn't go all bitchy on my Tesoro. She is one cranky lady.

I parked my car and quickly got out and caught up on Claire stopping her mid track, she turned around a bit startled. "Do you need something si-Zac." She said and I smiled at her, glad she's choosing to call me that.

"Yes love, there is just something I have to do for you. Can you please lead me to your manager?" I said and she gave me a confused look, but guided me towards her manager. She stopped in front of a lady in her late forties, as soon as the lady's gaze fell upon her she glared at her with hatred. Claire cowered behind me.

I clenched my jaw. The lady was about to say something else to her but I cleared my throat to make her acknowledge myself and as soon as she saw me her eyes widened, she gasped, fear evident in her eyes and a smirk made it's way on my face.

I live for this kind of reactions .

Claire

I just stood there and watched my manager as she gazes in fear with the man in front of me, as I am using him as a human shield against her.

Horrible, I know but he is big enough to take her wrath , me ? , not so much .

Why is she so scared? Zachary might be intimidating but he is not that scary. Perhaps she's terrified of the powerful aura he carries, like an Alpha wolf. Yes, that might be it but it can't get her scared to the point of being stunned and frozen to her spot.

"Ma'am, you must know already who I am so no need for introductions. I like getting straight to the point and not wasting my time." He declared, took out his wallet and I could see many hundred dollar bills.

He took out one thousand dollar bill and handed it to my manager. She doesn't hesitate to take it greedily, dollar signs in her eyes. Not realistically, of course!

"This might cover for Claire's salary which you were gonna cut, now I would like you not to do or say anything unrelated to her job. And cut from her salary ever again. Understood?" He stated confidently.

My manager just nodded, gulping in fear.

–––––

He kept a hand on the small of my back leading us out the manager office and that small gesture send tingles down my spine.

"You didn't have to do that. But thank you, though I don't have anything to pay you back...Wait!" I said as I started searching in my small purse for some money and found a 20 dollar bill. I took it out ushering it towards him to take it, his features softened.

"No no no. Darling keep it, I really don't need it and don't take it upon you as if you have to repay me back. Okay?I did it because I wanted to do it, for you." He claimed folding my hand with the money. My heart fluttered.

"B-but that was a lot you gave there, this is the least I can do for you." I stated. He smiled at me.

"No it really is okay. Money is the least of the problems I have baby girl." He said lightly ruffling my hair making me giggle. I heard him sighing in what seemed like a sense of relief.

Weird.

"I have to go now. But next time I expect a good hot latté." He said in a commanding, playful tone. I nodded my head and said my goodbye. My heart weighing down, somehow saddened by his departure. Though one thing stuck in my head, next time?

Just who are you exactly, Zachary Rodriguez?

Zachary

I would've stayed with my angel much longer, but I had some work to do that needed to be tend to, the hotel chains and the software companies are not gonna run themselves . The necessary paper work has to be done but right now i have to go to a meeting called upon by my father.

I walked into to his estate and into the meeting room where the today's meeting was to be be held.

As soon as I entered the office my father saw me and smirked "here is my son and heir , we were just waiting for you. Now that you're here let's start the meeting." He declared as patted my back. I felt pride but refused to show any emotions. Keeping my face blank.

"So what's new Robert?" he asked our third in command.

"Well, you know your casino in Florida. There was some turbulence made there by the Russians and the orders were given by their Don Fyodor Alfredo." he said, hidden anger in his eyes.

"I would expect you to take care of the loss over there, then I would also like you to hire more bodyguards over as well as on my other casino and bar chains. I don't want another disturbance anymore that I had to fixed. Take help from three of my men." He said coldly to him, Robert replied with a 'Yes Boss'.

He then turned towards me, "And for you Zachary, I would like you to track the bastards down through CCTV footage and shoot them dead. This would give that bastard Fyodor a lesson of what happens when he messes with the property of the Russian mafia , my property. Until the time I end him." he said turning utterly cold.

"Yes, father." I responded and he nodded.

"So anything else anyone would like to share?" He asked. No one said anything indicating that there was nothing more.

"Then that's all for now, everyone's dismissed " His voice boomed through the room as people left one at a time and I bid my father good bye .

Well then, I guess it's time to be left alone, though I can't help but think about her. Just the mere thought of her made me happy.
