Bedding My Vampire Mate

"Did you run all the way here because you heard someone at home got wounded?" Mrs Lopez grimaced.

"Yeah," Audrey replied as she leaned her back against the brown couch.

She raised her legs and placed them on the centre table.

"Miley called to inform me that our house was under attack and someone got wounded in the process," Audrey relayed.

Audrey stretched her hand and carried the remote from the middle of the centre table. She pressed the power button and waited for the television to boot.

"She was almost in tears and that is why I rushed here to confirm what happened…,"

"Are you trying to say you wouldn't have come home if you didn't misinterpret her words?" Mrs Lopez frowns her attention still on her daughter's face.

"That's a given," Audrey blurted while concentrating her eyes on the television.

"Are you saying you would only return to us when either your father or I had turned to ashes huh?" Mrs Lopez said emotionally seeing her daughter's nonchalance.

"Mum, stop being dramatic. You know that's not what I mean…,"

"Am I the one being dramatic or you?" Mrs Lopez asked as she sprang up to her feet.

"If you are not being dramatic then tell me what wrong your father and I have committed that you didn't hesitate to cut ties with us…,"

"I didn't cut ties with you and Dad. The house was no longer comfortable for me that is why I moved out…,"

"Geez… are you even listening to yourself, Audrey Lopez?" She asked with her right hand stationed on her waist.

Mr Lopez tried to come out of the room when he heard the mother and daughter start raising their voices but after holding the door's knob, he changed his mind.

[She hardly gets to meet Audrey not to mention being chanced to talk to her so I think I should give them time to talk things out… Besides, I won't be of much help even though I barged in on them]

Mr Lopez let go of the door's handle. He turned and returned to their King size bed.

He sat and listened to whatever they were saying in the other room.

"It's true that as parents we are not perfect but was it wrong of us to look out for our daughter and our family?" Mrs Lopez demanded, almost in tears.

All the emotions she has been suppressing ever since Audrey left home spurted, almost becoming very overwhelming for her.

"No matter how close you are with her, she can never become a family. She has a family of her own while you have yours…,"

"That is where you are wrong mum," Audrey said while standing up from the couch.

She stood in a way that she and her mother were looking at each other. "Family is not defined by blood Mum… If all families were defined by blood then does that mean adopted children and their parents are not families?" she asked.

"Yes you are right about that," Mrs Lopez hated to admit defeat but she had no other choice. Audrey had brought up a point that she couldn't refute.

"Does that mean you will never return home nor will you forgive your father and me because we tried to protect you along with our family?" Mrs Lopez questioned. She bent and took Audrey's hands in hers.

Mrs Lopez stroked her daughter's hands with their eyes locked together. She waited for Audrey to say the words she has been wanting to hear for so long but Audrey didn't say a word.

"You are the only child we have in this world. To get you back in your lives I can do anything including going on my knees…," Audrey grabbed her mother's hands and pulled her up seeing her lowered herself to kneel.

"Why would you kneel for me, Mum," Audrey scolded not letting go of her.

"Drey," she called. She raised her hand and cupped Audrey's face. "If you still consider us as your parents then come home to us. The house has become boring without you around," Mrs Lopez pleaded with her eyes.

"I wish I could do that but I can't…,"

"Does that mean you are still mad at us?" A masculine voice made Audrey spin to look behind her.

"That's not the case, Dad," She replied softly.

"Then what's the problem?" Mr and Mrs Lopez chorused.

Audrey turned and sat on the couch laid just behind her.

"As you are aware of Anna's situation, nothing has changed even though she came back from the dead…," Audrey explained while staring into space.

"She often spends the nights over with me I can't just leave her alone over there and return home. It's just not possible, Mum," She tried to make her parents understand.

[To my daughter, her best friend will always come first above every other thing including her parents…. Should I be happy or sad that she has found a bosom friend]

Mrs Lopez stared at her daughter's face with mixed feelings.

Meanwhile, as Audrey and her parents continued to talk, at the apartment Joanna wearing a short backless orange bodycon dress was seen standing in front of Amos' apartment.

"Is he not inside?" Joanna muttered when there was no response even on her second attempt.

She punched in the six digits password combination when none answered the door on her third try.

Entering the sitting room, Joanna was a bit surprised to see that the decorations from their first date were still there.

"At least he still has a bit of conscience left in him," the corner of her lips lit up when she saw the picture frame of the two of them hanging on the right-hand side of the wall.please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

She didn't need to search for him in the sitting room to know that he wasn't there. So, she proceeded to his bedroom.

"Is he perhaps sleeping?" Joanna, now holding onto the silver door handle, hesitated in opening the door.

"Will you win a trophy by staying outside or did you do something despicable that you are scared of punishment," A man's masculine voice interrupted Joanna's thought?

She pushed the door open after confirming that he wasn't asleep.

"What could I have… damn!" Joanna cursed as she instantly turned her back on the nude guy.

HAPPY ENDING OF THE MONTH EVERYONE!!!

I only get to do this once a month so I want to use this opportunity to say a big thank you to all of my readers who supported this book this August 2022.

Although my expectations were far from being met and so were the goals far from being accomplished, I still want to let you guys know that I appreciate all the hard work and resources you have put into this book.

Lately, my mind has been in turmoil. For my old readers who followed me from my previous books, I am sure you know that I would have given multiple mass releases each month even though you guys didn't reach the goals. But this didn't happen because of the current situation I am going through.

My mental health has been suffering for over two months now. Just so I won't disappoint you (My lovely readers) who must be waiting for updates daily, I have been trying my best to update daily.

I just want to use this medium to tell you guys that I might be forced to take a break from writing if this continues. But let's all hope it doesn't get to that stage.

As I give my all to make sure you get nothing but the best, please help this poor author out. Let's try our best to do much better next month. I believe that you guys are capable of making your darling author proud so I will look forward to seeing some improvements next month.

SPECIAL SHOUTOUT

A special shout-out to all the readers who bought privileged chapters for August. I would have loved to mention your names also but unfortunately, authors on Webnovel don't know readers who bought privileged chapters except the readers leave a comment on the purchased chapter.

...

Thank you so much to all my readers, both the active and the silent ones.

To all my silent readers, I wish one day you will let go of your quietness and become a source of motivation to me too.

Thank you so much once again, everyone.

P.S: The reason why there was no review category was that as usual all of you had decided not to leave a single review on the work.

Also, last month it was only one person who repeatedly kept commenting which is why DaoistTzoOew is the only reader who dominated that category.

Keep on supporting the book if you want your name to be included on the list
