Bedding My Vampire Mate

Chapter 610 Unnamed

Soon enough her persistence paid off. Joanna caught up to the guy at the edge of the cliff.

"Who the hell are you and why were you in my room?" Joanna demanded coldly.

"Who sent you to assassinate me huh? Say it or else I will make you face something worse than death?" Joanna threatened fiercely, her right hand glowing red in an instant.

"Joan!" A familiar voice called out to her.

The flame in Joanna's hand distinguished the moment the figure at the edge of the cliff turned around and revealed his face.

"K-k-kay!" Joanna yelled and her voice echoed in the forest.

For a minute Joanna thought she was seeing things since she only regained consciousness not long ago.

Even after she rubbed her eyes twice she still couldn't believe that the one standing in front of her was her lover.

"Weren't you unconscious, so what are you doing here?" Joanna demanded, not daring to move closer for some unknown reason.

"Also, the security at the pack is tight. It's almost impossible to get past the security guards guarding the territory so how did you get here?" Joanna continued with her interrogation.

Although the one in front of her had the face of her lover due to the circumstances surrounding the condition Kayden was in when she left the Kingdom she couldn't bring herself to believe that he was the one.

"When did you regain consciousness…"

"Are you just gonna stand there questioning me? Won't you come and embrace me?" Kayden said with his hands spread for her to run into.

Even though it was obvious that he was waiting to be embraced Joanna didn't move an inch from where she stood.

"I can see you didn't miss me but I did so I will be making the first move," Kayden said and took big strides towards where the startled lady stood.

When he got much closer he spread his arms and hugged her tightly.

"Ever since I opened my eyes you were the first person I looked for. I asked for you to be brought to the palace when I heard you had left but only to be greeted by the news that you left for the kingdom for some unknown reason…" Kayden trailed off, his grip around her neck grew tighter as he talked.

"This was the longest five days of my life. I thought I would die of loneliness if I didn't see you so I came over to visit you despite knowing the risk involved. I am sorry if I had startled you," Kayden said. He took a long sniff at her natural body scent that he had missed.

Not convinced by his story Joanna held his hand and gently unwrapped it from her body.

"If you came to see me because you missed me then why did you act like a thief who was caught stealing earlier? Why did you run off like that when I asked who you were?" Joanna asked sternly. She fixed her scrutinizing eyeballs on his face.

"According to the news my men residing here sent you have been unconscious for five days. I didn't expect to see you awake. I was flustered upon turning around at the sound of your voice," Kayden explained in a calm tone.

He tried to embrace her again but Joanna pushed his hands backward.

"The almighty Kayden Greyson ran all the way here just because he was flustered that his wife whom he believed to be unconscious was awake. Do you expect me to believe that hmm?" Joanna quizzed, her eyeballs fixed on his.

"Ok, ok, you caught me there. I should have known better that my smart wife wouldn't get easily fooled like that," Kayden said in defeat.

"Come, let's sit over there and I will tell you why I ran when I realised that you were not unconscious like I was informed," Kayden continued.

He grabbed her hand and led her to the edge of the cliff where they sat beside each other.

A few minutes into their conversation Joanna who was previously on edge was able to relax around Kayden.

"Actually, I am not surprised you have spies here since ancient times kings were known to be wary of their enemies. But what I want to know is if it's safe for you to be here," Joanna voiced her fears. She pulled away from the arms of the man she was resting on.

"Apart from the fact that you being a vampire alone will cause trouble, I am afraid that a war might break out if you are caught and they learn about your real identity in the process. We will be accused of being partners…"

"No such thing will happen so you can relax. Also, have you forgotten that I am a hybrid hmm?" Kayden smiled at her instead of being anxious just like her.

"Nobody will find out that I am a vampire except I want them to so you can enjoy this private time with me at ease because no such thing will happen," Kayden assured her. He pulled her onto himself once again.

"But…"

"My wife just became the most powerful figure in the pack. Do you think I will let her get into trouble before she can enjoy her reign?" Kayden teased. He hugged her just as much as he had missed her.

On the cliff, the two lovebirds chatted and played together until it was morning.

While they chatted Joanna had forgotten that this moment was short-lived until it reached the time for them to part ways.

"Joan, it's less than an hour before my usual morning bathe. The maids will enter my room to get me prepared for my morning assembly. There will be chaos in the palace if news gets out that the King who was supposed to be unconscious had gone missing from his inner chambers," Kayden said while stroking the hair of the lady whose head was resting on his legs.

"You said you regained consciousness five days ago, are you telling me that no one was aware that you had woken up? Not even the maids?" Joanna asked. She adjusted her head so that he was staring at his face
