Bedding My Vampire Mate

He has seen her mad with rage so many times but there was something about her current angry gaze that he couldn\'t understand.

"I clearly told you to leave the car\'s path earlier so why didn\'t you listen to me?" Joanna took out her anger on the innocent boy who was the biggest victim of all these.

"Didn\'t you proudly tell me you were capable of taking care of yourself and that I shouldn\'t worry about you, so why did you remain like a statue when the car was racing towards you huh?" Joanna questioned angrily.

The fear she once felt was soon replaced by rage and every part of her being showed it.

"I-I...I-I...," Anthony stammered. He was momentarily lost at what to say.

"Say something Anthony...,"

"Miss Butterfly, take it easy on him. No matter how strong he pretends to be he is just a child and I am sure he must still be feeling terrified due to what happened," Raymond came to Anthony\'s rescue on noticing that the fear of losing her brother had momentarily made Joanna lose her mind.

"He is the biggest victim here so try to calm yourself down...,"

"I-I... I tried to run to you when I saw the car but I found out I couldn\'t move. I tried very hard but it felt as if I was magnetized to the floor," Anthony finally found the courage to speak.

"And what do you mean by that?" Joanna narrowed her eyes.

Just then she recalled how she tried to move but couldn\'t. Even her power turned useless.

"You are right, my little rice ball is the victim here so I think it\'s time I pay the assailant a visit," Joanna muttered. She glared at the white car parked some distance from where they stood.

"Let\'s see who is the idiot who dared to make my beloved little brother his target," Joanna clenched her fist. She stomped towards where the black car was packed without moving a muscle.

"Stay right here. Don\'t move an inch ok," Raymond commanded before he ran after the furious Joanna.

Getting to the car, the angry lady hit the front door and asked the passenger to wound down the tinted glass.

She tried the second and then the third time but there was no response.

"If you think you can just hide behind those dark glasses after almost killing my Anthony then you are wrong?" Joanna hollered. She grabbed the door\'s hand and pulled it.

She nearly fell when the door of the car jerked open.

"The heck!" Joanna and Raymond shouted on discovering that the car was empty.

"Tell me this is a big joke," Joanna rubbed her eyes, thinking she might have daydreamt.

She peeks into the car for a second time and still discovers the car that almost killed Anthony was empty.

Raymond was stunned to see that the car was empty but not as dumbfounded as the angry Joanna.

As he stood there Derrick\'s threat replayed in his head.

[I thought he was joking when he threatened to harm her. I never knew Rick would stoop so low to harm little Anthony?]

Raymond clenched his fist and peered at the empty seats.

"Can someone please tell me what is going on here because I don\'t quite get it," Joanna muttered? She spun and looked at the guy standing behind her.

"The car is indeed empty. You are not imagining things, you can be sure of that," Raymond assured the confused Joanna.

Joanna turned and scanned her environment after Raymond\'s confirmation.

She scanned everyone and everything with the help of her system\'s analyse function.

[Is there someone who has similar powers as me?... And if perhaps there is which I doubt then why the fuck is he/she messing with me huh?]

Joanna clenched her fists and continued to look around.

How she wished she saw the person responsible for this. If that was the case she would have made sure she beats the person half dead or killed him right there for putting her through that scary moment.

"What....,"

"My little rice ball must be scared out of his wits after what happened. I need to be with him," Joanna said and moved away from the strange car.

Joanna strolled to where Anthony stood. She paid no attention to what others present at the scene of the incident said.

"Are you ok?" The now cool-headed Joanna asked calmly as she stared at the quiet boy\'s face.

"Did you get hurt? Do you want me to take you home?" She asked.

Her voice was so gentle that anyone who saw the way she scolded Anthony earlier would wonder if she was the same lady.

"You promised you would take me to the amusement park," Anthony was more concerned about going to the amusement park than anything else.

"But...," Joanna paused what she wanted to say when she recalled Anthony\'s broad smile when she promised she would take him to the amusement park after school.

"If that\'s what you want then that is what we will do," She agreed.

She pats his hair affectionately and then moves to hold his hand.

[Let\'s see whether there is any strange force capable of tearing me apart from him now that we are holding hands?]

Joanna shifted her gaze to the car which had caused the movement of cars on the road.

"My car is parked over there so let\'s go in my car," Raymond offered to drive them to the park.

"Thanks but we can manage just fine," Joanna replied carefreely.

"Instead of taking a cab let me drive you both there. After what happened I will only have peace of mind if I take you guys there so let me do it hmm," Raymond insisted.

Joanna rejected his offer for the second time. But she ended up agreeing to what he wanted due to his persistence.

Another reason she went in Raymond\'s car was that Amos didn\'t show up even though she waited for over ten minutes.

Meanwhile, as this was happening Amos who just reached their hideout bumped into Kyle who was also on his way there.

"I heard something happened. Let\'s go find out what was so important that they had to call me to come in person," Amos muttered as he led the way into the tall building.

HAPPY END OF THE MONTH!!! HAPPY LAST DAY OF FEBRUARY

First of all guys, I want to say I wasn\'t impressed by our performances at all for this month.

Unlike last month where the monthly missions were accomplished every week, there was no week that you guys reached these goals this month and that was precisely why there were no mass releases also.

I was very optimistic about February but my hopes got crushed this month.

I wish you guys will do better next month which is actually my birthday month.

I want a huge gift for my birthday and I am expecting huge gifts including surprises from every single one of you. Are you guys on this with me? (...*coughs... Raise your hands please ✋, lmao)

Yes, I have relayed how bad I felt and now it\'s time to say my thanks.

I want to say a big thank you to all those who supported the book this month notwithstanding the turnout of events.

Thank you so much, I will forever remain grateful to every single one of you.

I love you ❤️❤️❤️

And I honestly look forward to improvement in March 2023.
