Bedding My Vampire Mate

Chapter 81 Audrey Got Tricked



"I beg to take my leave now, Your Majesty," Mr Martinez bowed his head slightly.

Joanna was stunned to see the prime minister so docile and obedient when he was ever so talkative.

Apart from the Queen, the second person who always tried to detect things for the King was Mr Martinez, the prime minister.

He has so many supporters and influence and this is why he isn't afraid of anything.

Seeing him so afraid and obedient made Joanna wonder what on Earth Kayden did to take the man this way.

"You may leave but are you sure you don't want to…," To the utter surprise of everyone who was waiting for the prime minister to put the King in his rightful place, the elderly man hurried away before Kayden could finish talking.

The moment he left Joanna turned and gave Kayden a questioning gaze but he looked away.

"Let's go," Kayden said as he led the way.

When they reached outside Audrey wanted to stop Kayden from taking Joanna away but Chris stopped her.

"What is he trying to play at now?" Audrey asked fiercely as she tried to push Chris out of her way but Chris didn't move a muscle.

"Wasn't he indifferent when she died so what…,"

"Miss Audrey, the King is not as bad as you think. And what you see is not always entirely true. You will get to understand what I mean in the future….,"

"I don't believe what you say and I won't understand what you and he did so let go of me now?" Audrey said fiercely. Audrey struggled to free herself but Chris won't let go no matter what.

"I made a huge mistake in the past and I won't repeat the same thing. If you want to separate the King and Miss Joanna then you have to go through me first," Chris said sternly.

He let go of her hand and took his stand ready to battle it out with Audrey.

As he tried to stop Audrey from separating Joanna from the King, he stole a glance at them to make sure that they were far away.

"Do you think I wouldn't fight you just because you are the King's person?" Audrey asked angrily as she also took her stance.

Before Chris knew it, her eyes, fangs and teeth had transformed. "If that's what you think then you are very wrong. Now that she is back then I will do everything to protect her from everyone including herself," Audrey said fiercely.

"So bring it on," Audrey said coldly. From her words and expression, it was so obvious that she was ready to fight Chris right there and then.

Seeing the King's car drive away, Chris smiled. He dropped his hands.

"What is wrong? Are you too scared to fight me?" Audrey said provocatively.

"I can never be too scared to defend the King no matter how mighty the enemy is," Chris said softly.

"The King and Miss Joanna are gone so fighting with you here is meaningless right now," Chris said as he left her path.

Audrey glared at him when she realised that the King and Joanna were really gone.

"You…," the angry Audrey pointed her index finger at Chris when noticed that she was tricked by him.

"You might have succeeded today but I promise you that you won't next time. I will make sure I uncover his real face to Anna. Let's see where she will follow him next time after she learns the kind of heartless person the two of you are," Audrey said. She deliberately bumped into Chris as she made to walk away.

"Although His Majesty is very tolerant of your bad attitude towards him there is a limit to what he can do to protect you," Chris said before Audrey could walk far away.

"That is why I will ask you not to overdo it because they will come a time he won't be able to protect you from the wrath of others. You guys might be friends but he is still the King…,"

"Point of correction, I am no friends with him ok," Audrey interrupted Chris sharply. She stomped away in anger afterwards.

"She is mad at His Majesty because he sent her away and pretended not to believe what she said that night…," Chris said while staring at Audrey's departing back.

"If only she knew that he did what he did to protect her that night,"

"I am sure she wouldn't hate His Majesty so much if she is aware of the length he went through to avenge Miss Joanna. It's just unfortunate that she is in the dark about all these things," Chris turned and walked back into the hall after Audrey had disappeared into the dark.

Some minutes later Kayden was seen parking the car in front of a tall building. Because it was very late, hardly anyone was in sight.

The first to step out of the car was Joanna. She went and stood in front of the car.

Kayden came out of the car with a bottle of champagne and two wine glasses in his hands.

"Wait here, I will be back," Kayden smiled at her after dropping the things in his hands on the bonnet of the black sports car.

He walked to the passenger seat and opened the door. He returned with a small size cake carefully wrapped.

"What are all these?" Joanna asked curiously, not understanding why he had prepared so much.

"From the onset, I knew you wouldn't like it the party and that is why I asked Josephina to get these things ready, including your favourite vanilla cake," Kayden said, bringing the cake near for her to get a closer view at it.

"Vanilla cake!" Joanna remarked in shock as she raised her gaze from the cake and stare at Kayden's smiling face.

[Even Drey doesn't know that this particular cake and flavour is my favourite so how did he know all these things?]

Joanna wondered as she continued looking at Kayden.

"I know I look exceptionally handsome today but are you gonna stand here all night staring at my face?" Kayden asked teasingly.

His tease made Joanna snap out of her daze.

"Your cold facade earlier almost made me forget how shameless of a person you are. I can't believe I almost got fooled," Joanna replied in a casual tone too since it was just the two of them.

"To others, I am a cold King but with you, I am nothing but a passionate lover who is head over heels for you. I have told you this before, you must have forgotten…,"

"Don't you feel embarrassed saying these words? I often wonder about this, so fulfil my curiosity," Joanna said.

She tried to sit on the bonnet of the car but she realised she couldn't do it because of her floor-length dress.

"What is there to be ashamed of when we are gonna spend our entire lives together?" Kayden said.
