Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO

Gwain knew when to back down. After Santiago kicked him hard enough to leave his arm tingling, he realized it was best not to push his luck. Witnessing the internal strength Santiago wielded made him rethink any plans to fight. Wyatt agreed it was the right call. Even if they teamed up, they might still lose. Even if they somehow managed to pull off a victory, it would take an exhausting number of moves. The last thing they wanted was for things to spiral out of control. Isabella and the rest could show up at any moment, and their captive, Roselynn, was their weakest link.

Why do you want to run away just because I rattled you? You're way below the Wolf Warrior!" He wasn't wrong. Santiago had gone head-to-head with Emmanuel at Peach Blossom House; while neither had gone all out, Emmanuel had held his own. Yet Gwain didn't even have the guts to challenge Santiago, obviously showing who the real master was.
