Unknown to Precious and Richard, another car was packed few blocks from the house where Precious live with her foster parents. The car followed them all the way from the diner. The driver of the car has kept his distance but expertly followed them without being noticed.
All these while, he was busy taking pictures of Precious and Richard as they had their little argument near the diner, and as he carried her into the house.
He had been tracking Precious down with the picture and other information given to him by his employer. It was not an easy tasks but he is very good at is work. Canada has a lot of black immigrants but with the right date of arrival and other information, he was able to find the girl.
Although she was much younger when the boss last saw her, but further investigation, had proved that it is thesame girl. When he presented a picture of the girl's current self to the boss, he noticed the boss smile for the first time.
He had watched her go to school, work and home for a few days now. He doesn't know why he was asked to keep an eye on a simple college girl that obviously needs to work, in order to take care of her bills. He doesn't care either, as long as the pay is good, he will keep doing his job and reporting to his arrogant employer.
After following this interesting young girl for days, he concluded that she is a strong, hard working and determined girl. She doesn't fool around like girls her age. It's a pity that the plan for her kidnap is almost set.
He has never seen her with any guy until today. When he noticed them together for the first time, they were acting like old acquaintance. This is a new development which he must report back to his boss.
He lifted his polaroid camera and snapped them at the dinning from where he was standing through the window. However, at that same time, Richard felt that something is odd in the environment. He suddenly has this weird feeling that someone is watching them.
"I think my work here is done, I will report back to the master" he muttered to himself as he walked back to his car.

Richard was almost done eating when he started having this strange feeling that something is wrong in the environment.
"Something is wrong but I don't know what it is" Seth said through the mind link
"I can feel it too. like we are being watched" Richard replied though the link.
"You need to check it out. but don't scare Mate" Seth urged
"The last thing I want is to scare her or her mom so we need to go now. Although, I will love to be near mate for much longer but we need to check out the outside of the house. " Richard mind linked before placing the cutleries down more gently than he feels.
"The food was really delicious ma'am. Thanks for the food"
"welcome dear, you can call me Bella. I am glad you enjoyed it" Bella said, Smiling at him.
"Thanks also, for allowing me share with you" he smirked at Precious who couldn't resist rolling her eyes at him.
"Bella, I hope to meet you again, please do take care of baby P. for now, I need to go and attend to another business" He said as he got up from his chair.
"Don't call me that!" Precious whined, making her look like an actual baby. Richard chuckled. He bent down and quickly gave her a kiss on the forehead, not giving her a chance to resist.
He walked to the door then stopped and looked at the two ladies that are now becoming part of his life.
"See you both tomorrow"
"See you too" Bella responded while Precious stubbornly folded her arms across her chest like a spoilt child. She choose not to respond.
Immediately he got out of the house, he became more alert. he went round the house,. carefully looking out for any abnormal things. His ears are also alert, trying to get any unusual movement and sounds.
He picked up the smell of a male but the smell was that of a human. He can sense danger from the smell but What would any human have against Precious' family.
"Could it be her foster dad's enemies? remember the investigator had mentioned that he is seriously indebted to lots of bad money lenders" Seth suggested through the link
"That will not be far from the truth." Richard agreed while making a mental note to call his Bata Marcus after checking out the environment, so that he can investigate and clear up the debts.
Meanwhile, he decided to call for guards. He brought out his phone, dialed a particular number and placed the phone to his ears
"Send four men to the Address I will text to you. Tell Logan that he will be leading the men. I need them stationed outside the house twenty four hours. if any of the ladies in the house should go out, one of the men must follow her. This mission must be discrete. I don't want the ladies to panic" He cut the call without waiting for a reply. That had always been his method and his men are used to it. He quickly typed the address before putting back the phone in his pocket.
He went back to his position from the previous night where he can discreetly watch his mate till his men arrived. He would have preferred to stay and guard her himself but he knows that if she she him, she will think he is stalking her or worse.
He knows that Marcus his beta had delivered his massage but he personally want to hand over the Luna's safety to his gamma, Logan since it is the responsibility of the gamma, to guard her with his life
