Bedding My Vampire Mate

As she kissed him she used her tongue to push the piece of chicken into his mouth.

She didn't stop kissing him even though she had achieved her aim, Joanna kept on kissing him.

Just when she realised that she had gotten him where she wanted she brought an abrupt end to the sensational kiss by pulling away.

"What do you think about my method of feeding you?" asked Joanna as she wiped her wet lips with her index finger.

She grinned inwardly when she saw him staring at her in a daze.

[My first step was a success. This is great. I am just this close to accomplishing my mission]

Joanna's heart leapt up as she turned and sat on the black chair which had a touch of brown.

"Seeing how you are staring at me with so much love, I guess it will not be wrong of me to conclude that you love it right?" Joanna demanded. She didn't forget to lick her lips seductively.

Although he was looking at her, it felt like the one sitting beside him was a different person from the lady he has known for more than half of his life.

[What had come over her?... Is she the same Joan who rejected my proposal some minutes ago… or does she perhaps have a split personality]

Instead of being happy, Kayden was confused. He was confused by how bold she was when she has always been the one who tries to avoid getting close to him.

To even get to kiss or hold her hands he either had to tease her first or trick her.

Seeing her so sexually proactive makes him feel uneasy for some reason.

"You can go on eating while I get my blood from the refrigerator so I can join you," Kayden said standing up from his chair.

He left before she could get the chance to say a word.

While waiting for him to return Joanna went ahead to taste some of the delicacies displayed on the long dining table.

She waited for him for ten minutes and yet Kayden didn't return from getting blood from the refrigerator as he said.

Joanna who was conscious of the time became alarmed when she didn't hear movements in the sitting room.

"What is keeping him for so long?" Joanna muttered her eyes glued on the pathway leading to the sitting room.

She dropped the cutlery on her floral plate, wiped her mouth with the white napkins and stood up.

Joanna was about to go in search of him when he returned with two pints of blood in his hands.

"You are here," Joanna exclaimed as she let out a sharp breath. "I almost thought that you got kidnapped by some skilled assassins or mysterious beings," said Joanna as she sat back down on the chair.

Her eyes followed Kayden until he has his seat beside her in the dining.

"I was about to take out the blood from the refrigerator when I recalled that I forgot an important thing in the car earlier," Kayden said.

He brought out his right hand he has been hiding behind his back since he returned.

"I had to go downstairs to get it. Sorry I kept you waiting," He added as he extended the medium size blue squarebox to her.

Joanna stared at the box before she returned to looking at his face.

She contemplated on whether or not to take the box from him for about two minutes.

"What is this?" Joanna said, collecting the box from him. Looking at his face she slides the box open.

"Wow…," Joanna's remarked. Her eyes glimmered as she stared at the sparkling blue necklace inside the gift box.

Joanna abruptly averted her gaze to his face when she noticed that the necklace was a lady's one. "This is not for me right?" She asked despite already guessing that much.

"You are right…,"

"But you have already bought so many jewellery sets for me," Joanna cut in. She dropped the blue box on the table and pushed it to his front.

"I can't accept it, "Joanna said without beating around the bush.

"Indeed, I have already bought many pieces of jewellery for you but this is different," Kayden replied standing up from the chair with the jewellery box in his right hand.

He went and stood at the back of her chair. He bent so that his upper body was almost resting against her right shoulder.

"But this is different from all the pieces of jewellery I have given you…,"

"And what makes it different? Aren't there all pieces of jewellery?" Joanna asked acting unfazed even though his closeness was making her developed funny feelings within.

"It's different. Very different," Kayden said. He opened the blue box and took out the glowing blue necklace designed in form of a rose petal.

"The phoenix jewellery sets I gave you signified my desire to make you my Queen. The jewellery sets I bought earlier were because I hated to see your neck, wrist and ears bare but…," Kayden trailed making sure that she was following his explanation.

​ "But this necklace called the Blue Glow is a symbol of my love for you. It has your initials on it," Kayden said as he brought the necklace closer so that she would see the initials.

"J.A?" Joanna exclaimed. She tilted her head sideways to get a glimpse of his face.

"J.A. J stand for Joan while A represents Anna. J. A as in Joanna," Kayden took his time to explain the meaning of the initials.

"Why is the necklace called Blue Glow? Is it because the sparkles are blue?" Joanna asked as she caressed the necklace in his hand.

"I named it blue glow after spending almost a month designing it because I felt that is the phrase that perfectly defines my love for you," Kayden said. He left the necklace in her possession and adjusted his body to stand straight.

"Blue Glow stands for everlasting love. A love that will forever continue to burn. Not even the cold wind of trials or time itself will be able to dim the light of my love for you," Kayden said smiling.

"Blue Glow standing for an everlasting burning love?" Joanna said, staring into space.
