Bedding My Vampire Mate

Mrs Parker grinned inwardly when she noticed that Joanna had taken the bait.

"Hmmm…," Mrs Parker trailed as she walked over from the front of the counter to where Joanna stood.

"By this time I believe they should be in the movie theatre having a great time in their booked room," Mrs Parker said with a broad smile on her pretty face.

"What!" Joanna shouted with widened eyes. She didn't give a fuck that her loud voice attracted the attention of the customers.

As if dropping the bomb wasn't enough torture for the poor lady Mrs Parker raised her hand and place it on Joanna's right shoulder.

"Because of how he always dressed, I never imagined that he was a rich dude. I was awestruck when Lia began listing the assets under his family's name," Mrs Parker was merciless with her torture this time around.

She acted as though she didn't see Joanna's tightened fist and the burning rage in her eyes.

"My sister was able to meet and fall in love with such a capable man like him all because of you, so you deserve all the thanks…," Mrs Parker trailed.

"Tell me what you want. As a way of showing appreciation I will give you whatever you want…," Joanna walked away almost causing Mrs Parker to lose balance.

Joanna was too angry to care about what she did.

[If I said I want your sister's head would you be able to give it to me because that is what I really want right now]

Joanna clasped her fist as she strolled out of the cafe in anger.

Leah standing in front of the counter walked over to Mrs Parker's side frowning.

"What has come over her lately??" Leah asked her gaze following the lady who was now outside the cafe.

"She has been so sensitive lately. She gets angry at every slight mistake. I can't believe she also got angry at you," Leah added.

"She is suffering from every being's worst sickness so you can't blame her for taking it out on me," Mrs Parker said grinning.

Leah had expected her to get furious and lashed out at Joanna and that is why Mrs Parker's smile left her in awe of the woman.

She has worked with so many bosses and never had she seen any boss as good as Mrs Parker.

She isn't only nice but treats her employees with respect. Maybe her temperament is the reason many people adored her.

[I must admit she is one weird lady]

Leah was lost in thoughts as she looked at the smiling lady's face.

Leah was still in a daze when Mrs Parker's words resounded in her head. Her eyes widened in an instant.

"Joanna is sick?" Leah asked with widened eyes. No matter how surprised she was she didn't treat Mrs Parker as though they were friends.

"If she is sick then why didn't she mention it to us?" Leah's eyes were full of worry as she spoke.

"I can see why she has been acting weird lately…. I would have been a little more caring had I known that she was sick". Leah added as she turned and stared at the last place she saw Joanna standing.

Mrs Parker couldn't resist chuckling when she realised that Leah had mistaken what she just said.

"Mrs Parker, please did she mention anything about her illness to you? Is her condition serious or is what she is suffering curable?" Leah flooded Mrs Parker with questions, nevertheless, she kept her manners all the way.please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

"The sickness she is down with is a unique one. It's the sickness which brings even the mightiest to their knees. No medicine in this world can cure that sickness," Mrs Parker said with a smile on her face.

Leah was about to ask another question when Mrs Parker's cell phone lying on the table rang.

Leah watched the woman's face. She was fortunate enough to see a flash of fear across Mrs Parker's eyes the instant she saw the caller's ID.

"She just said Joanna is sick so why was she smiling?... Why is everyone around me acting weird lately?" Leah muttered.

Just then a customer's call put an abrupt end to her thoughts.

After leaving the cafe Joanna strolled to the public resting area located not far away from the cafe.

She and Amos always love sitting there every time she gets off work since that is the only private time they have.

Merely looking at the brown bench from afar memories they have spent on that spot replayed in her memory.

They were always very happy. And most importantly he takes pleasure in teasing her every time.

Standing there she couldn't help asking herself what exactly went wrong between the two of them. How did they get to this point?

With mixed feelings, Joanna walked to the bench placed under a beautiful shade.

She came outside to clear her head but sitting there all she could think about was the beautiful times she spent with Amos.

Even when she tries not to think about him she always ends up doing the same thing she didn't want to. It was as if her mind was under a strong spell.

Joanna spent almost an hour reminiscing about the old days. She was still in her fantasy world when her cell phone rang.

With a lack of interest, she removed her cell phone from her trouser pockets.

"What's it, Leah?", Joanna demanded sternly.

"Some customers just arrived…,"

"And how is that my concern?" Joanna snapped as she stood up from the bench.

"It's your concern because one of these customers is someone you know very well," Leah said in almost a whisper. She stole glances at the man sitting at a table not far away from the counter.

"Someone I know very well?" Joanna asked in confusion.

"Hurry and come over. I am sure you will be surprised to see who he is," Leah said in excitement.

"Who are you talking about…," Leah had already disconnected the call before Joanna could find out who she was talking to.

"Who is she referring to?" Joanna muttered. She was still trying to guess who it was when her face lit up.

"Does that mean he has come for me?" Joanna's smile broadened.
