Bedding My Vampire Mate

242 Joanna In Tears

She was aware that stopping her would make Audrey more disappointed in her but she also didn't want to see him hurt in any way.

And that is why she was in a dilemma.

Should she stop her best friend even at the expense of making her angrier or should she watch the man she loves so dearly get severely hurt by her best friend?

Joanna knew that no matter what choice she made, one out of the two people she loved so much would end up getting hurt.

As Audrey drew closer to where Amos stood Joanna became even more confused.

She didn't make up her mind until Audrey revealed her clasped fist and tried to punch Amos in the chest.

The instant Audrey launched her secret attack which was aiming at Amos' right chest, Joanna ran in between them with her hands spread.

Had Audrey not withdrawn her punch at the last minute, she would have punched Joanna in the chest.

With that just one resentful blow Joanna's ribs would have been damaged beyond repair.

"Hehehe…," Audrey laughed and staggered backwards as she lowered her hand.

"Congratulations, Joanna Anderson. You have successfully made me look like the guy even until the end," Audrey said. She disappeared into the dark street before Joanna could utter a word.

"Drey…,"

"It's no use chasing after her right now," Amos said, grabbing her hand. She didn't let her chase after Audrey as she wanted.

"Let go of me. I need to explain things to her…,"

"And you think she would listen to whatever you say in her current state of mind?" Amos asked not letting go of the struggling lady.

"But…,"

"Let's leave her to calm down first. Right now her mind is a mess. Nothing you say or do will make sense to her so let's wait until tomorrow hmm," Amos said softly.

"We can try talking to her then. I am sure she would have been calmed when morning comes," Amos tried to assure her.

Looking in the direction Audrey disappeared, Joanna squats with her hands on her head.

"This is not how things are supposed to turn out…," Joanna said as she cupped her face.

Tears brim down her pretty face when she recalled just how happy they were when she left home in the morning.

Everything was perfect. They were even bickering and smiling happily.

How did they come to where they are now within just the space of a few hours?

"Joan…," Amos called out. He squats in front of her realising that she was crying.

"Audrey is just very mad now and that is why she acted the way she did. It hasn't come to the stage of you crying so stop it already," He coaxed while trying to break her hands-free from her face.

Joanna refused to remove her hands from her face despite his coaxing.

"She didn't say all those words merely because she is mad like you said. But she meant every word she said, I know her very well," Joanna sobs as she talks.

Kayden was never the type to easily get emotional over things. He was trained to become this way ever since he was a little boy but seeing her cry so hard broke his heart.

"Drey is the type to hold grudges and that is why I know she meant all she said…," He pulled her into his embrace before she could complete her words.

He stroked her silk silver hair lovingly. "If she won't listen to what you have to say then I will talk to her," he assured her.

Joanna abruptly pulled out of his embrace, remove her hands from her face and look him in the eyes. "Really?" She asked with hopes in her eyes.

"Yes, as long as it will make you happy, I am willing to do anything including pleading with her…,"

"Your identity is way too Noble for you to lower yourself in front of anyone so you don't have to do that…,"

"To see that beautiful smile return to your face I don't think it's a costly price for me to pay. To be honest, my actions pushed you into this situation you are in now so it's only fair I do something about it," Amos said. He drew her closer and embraced the lady whose tears were still falling.

"I know what her existence means to you in your life and I will do whatever it takes to make sure that you ladies are alright again," Amos said caressing her back affectionately.

Still, in his embrace, he wiped the warm tears off her face. The two of them stayed in that position for a long time.

It was after Joanna felt better and pulled away that he stood up from his squatting position.

"Now that Audrey is mad at you, I don't think she would want to share the same room with you, so where are you gonna live now?" Amos asked the lady walking side by side with him.

Even though she had long stopped crying there was a lot of sadness in her eyes. He wished there was something he could do to make her smile.

He was aware that the only thing he could give her right now to see a smile on her face was her perfect relationship with Audrey.

And that was something he knew he couldn't give her at the moment because of how furious Audrey was.

"How about staying over at my place…,"

"Thanks but I will spend the night at the hotel with my family," Joanna was quick to reject his offer.

If it was when she didn't realize her feelings for him maybe she would have been quick to accept his offer but not now.

Barely being in a place with him in public and she can't control herself not to mention them being in the same confined space.

She didn't want to even imagine what will happen between the two of them if they were to spend the night in the same place.

"Ooh…," Amos remarked. The disappointment was evident on his face and voice.

"Nanny Susan called to inform me that Little rice ball has been unable to sleep properly ever since they moved to the hotel. She believes I am his sleeping pills…,"

"You are not his wife so why would she say so?" Amos muttered under his breath with a deep frown on his face.

Joanna shifted her gaze to the guy walking by her side. "Did you say something?" She questioned.
