Bedding My Vampire Mate

Laura ran out of the house and Joanna immediately strolled out.

Outside the house, Joanna paused the moment she perceived Laura\'s scent.

She swivelled and gazed at the young lady standing about six feet away from her.

"I know you will miss my daily breakfast since I am the only one in this household who can satisfy your palate but you didn\'t have to see me out...," 

"You can act cocky all you want but I promise you that I will put an end to you," Laura retorted.

"For the pain you caused me tonight I will make sure I kill you even if that is the last thing I will do...,"

"You can try as many times as you want but let me tell you that I will no longer let my love for Anthony hold me back from beating the hell out of you. So at our next battle, give it your all because I won\'t hesitate to make you suffer," Joanna berated.

"How dare...," Joanna turned and walked towards the gate before Laura could say another word.

The moment Joanna stepped out of the gate, there was a guy in black trousers and a green shirt waiting right in front of her gate.

Her first reaction was to pause in her tracks. At that moment she so much wanted to jump on his body and hug him just like she had missed him.

She was only able to resist her urges after she mustered up all her willpower.

"What are you doing here?" Joanna retorted to the shock of the worried guy who was so relieved to see her unharmed.

"They were loud noises coming out from your home, are you alright?" Amos ignored her question and moved closer to the fuming Joanna.

"You didn\'t hesitate to keep your distance from me. Now I have granted your wish, so what do you want from me...,"

"Joan...," Amos was a bit taken aback when he saw her avoiding his outstretched hands.

"It looked like you were gonna barge into my home if I didn\'t come out the moment I did. Tell me, how were you gonna introduce yourself huh?" Joanna grimaced.

Since he overheard everything that took place some minutes ago in the sitting room, Amos tried his best not to let her hostile words get to him.

"You took so many precautions to make sure that your identity remained a secret so don\'t tell me you were planning to reveal your true identity after barging into my home...,"

"As long as it\'s for you I won\'t hesitate to do that and even more...,"

"Unfortunately I don\'t need that," Joanna cut in sharply. 

For the first time in two minutes, Joanna raised her gaze and looked into his eyeballs.

"I have told you that I am not the same weak girl in the past. I am not a damsel in distress who needs a knight and a hero to come to her rescue...,"

"Joan, what is wrong with you?" Amos asked. He raised his hands and placed them on her shoulders.

"If you are mad at me for avoiding you these past days...,"

"I need some space and I wish you would do this for me," Joanna announced nonchalantly and brushed off his hands from her body without hesitation.

"I need time to think whether what I feel for you is real love like I thought it was or it was just my obsession which sprang forth out of jealousy...,"

"Joan, don\'t say that because I am certain what you feel for me is love...,"

"I am not even sure of this so how come you are even more confident than me?" Joanna hissed. 

To Amos, her irritated expression felt as if someone spat on his face.

"Joan, don\'t do this to me. We have come too far to go back to the beginning...,"

"When you avoided me out of the blue I didn\'t force myself on you so I wished you would do the same thing and give me the space that I need," Joanna said with a tone of finality. 

She walked past him without sparing him another glance.

"Joan!" Amos called out to her but Joanna pretended as if she didn\'t hear him.

As she strolled away Joanna whose heartaches were no different from Amos\' dug her fingers into her palms.

Anyone who saw her walk out on Amos would assume she did this with ease not knowing that the lady who acted indifferent to her lover was crying.

After Joanna made sure that Amos could not see her from where he stood, she paused in her tracks, leaned her body against the red pillar and slowly lowered herself into a squatting position.

[If someone had told me that I would one day be forced to say hurtful words to the man I love with all my heart, I am sure I would have strangled that person before she completed her sentence...]

Joanna sniffed and covered her wet face with her palms.

[I can\'t believe I hurt him so much and the most painful part of it is that I did this with ease]

Joanna moved her hand covering her face to her chest. She hits her aching chest repeatedly thinking that maybe this would make the pains in her chest go away but she discovered that this wasn\'t of much help.

[I deliberately made him unable to hear my conversation with Laura because I didn\'t want him to run off without getting to see his face. If I knew I was gonna end up hurting his feelings I wouldn\'t have longed to see his face]

Joanna sobbed silently. She stayed in this position for close to ten minutes before she carried her weak body and moved along in whatever direction her legs went.

After walking aimlessly on the lonely streets for close to two hours, she arrived in front of Audrey\'s apartment building.

"Hey, what are you doing here? Didn\'t you tell me you were gonna spend the night at...," Audrey put her question on hold when she saw Joanna\'s face which was covered with dried tears.
