Bedding My Vampire Mate



"And why are you so angry about that huh? Isn't that what you have always wanted for the past eighteen years after you learned about my existence?" Joanna yelled at the top of her voice.

"I bet getting killed by you here would have been me granting your greatest wish but too bad Mr Anderson, I have no intentions of giving you that pleasure," Joanna continued as she moved closer to where her angry father stood.

"I don't like you enough to throw away my life just to make you happy; the exact thing you tried to steal from me..."

"And what is this nonsense you are sprouting from your mouth?" Mr Anderson cut in, his fierce stares fixed on her face.

"Also, is that how you were taught to speak to your father...,"

"Sorry, Sir but I have never been taught manners. My stepmother was too busy tormenting me to teach me manners and the one who called himself my father was nowhere to be found so how could you expect me to give what I never received?" Joanna retorted while looking into his eyeballs that screamed fury.

Actually, she was too angry herself to care about her father's fury.

"One more thing I have long considered myself an orphan. I don't have a father that I should offer my respect to...,"

"Utter that one more time and I will make sure you are not able to talk with that mouth of yours for a long time," Mr Anderson, who couldn't handle his daughter's attitude towards him, threatened.

Luckily for him, there were no passersby to witness how he was challenged by his daughter he had always believed was a loser. The two of them went quiet afterwards.

"Do you know how I felt when I learned that you threatened the one I loved and what I wanted to do?" Joanna broke the awkward silence at last.

"I wanted to return the pains I felt in the double fold... you have always hurt me so for the first time I desperately wanted you to feel at least a tiny bit out of the pains your family inflicted on me both physically and emotionally..." Joanna let her words linger as she shove her trembling hands into her trouser's pockets and immediately turned her back to him.

"But Drey came back in time to stop me. I was this close to getting my revenge on you.. just this close," Joanna demonstrated with her pinky fingers.

"Joanna..."

"The man you threatened, I love him a whole lot. Although Drey was able to stop me from committing any atrocities today, believe me, it might likely not happen next time around," Joanna grunted.

She spun so that she was looking at his face.

"I love him to the point of insanity and I can do anything and everything to protect what we share so I will advise that you keep your distance from him because even I don't know what I will do if you ever do this again...,"

"Are you threatening me for that scumbag?" Mr Anderson growled, his fist tightly clenched to suppress his annoyance.

"Also what do you know about love huh?" He berated, his cold gaze locked with hers.

"I might not know much about love since I had no one to guide me but trust me, I am not the type who will abandon or throw away the one I love like trash just for power and gains..."

"Are you peradventure directing that at me, Joanna Anderson..."

"I never mentioned a name... also you wouldn't have assumed I was referring to you if you had a clear conscience," Joanna muttered with her head hanging low.

"You..."

"For a long time now, I have accepted the fact that you will never love me or care for me the way you do with your other children... although I won't say it was easy, I still went ahead and accepted my fate," She started in a calmer tone.

"Yes, you deprived me of the love and care I deserved despite how hard I tried but someone else willingly gave that love to me and in abundance at that. And believe me, I didn't try so hard to get his love," Joanna continued as she lifted her eyes and gazed at the round mood shining down on them from above.

Gazing at the moon brought back some of the amazing memories she spent with Amos; especially those of their times in the forest.

"Right, I was cool with not being able to earn your love but I won't let you steal this love and happiness I have found from me, never!" Joanna asserted.

"So please I am begging you, don't push me into doing something nasty that everyone will wonder whether I was possessed by a devil," Joanna concluded in a meek tone.

She began walking away after she had passed her message.

"Come back here, Joanna. I am not done talking to you," Mr Anderson yelled at her but she refused to stop or looked back at him. She continued to stroll away as if she didn't hear a single word he said.

"Joanna, you are still too young and naive to understand the way the world runs... I was just like you years ago and look at the mess I am in because of that fleeting feeling called love. Believe me, you will know better as you grow that love is not primary but secondary needs," Mr Anderson mumbled, his eyes glued on the back of the lady he couldn't clearly see at the moment.

Back where Joanna was, she paused in time to see her father turn back and hopped into his car.

"Love might have been nothing more than a fleeting feeling to you but that is not the case to me. My definition of love is way more deeper and beautiful than yours," Joanna mumbled, her eyes fixed on the glowing beams of his car's sidelights.

"You called me young and naive but I am not. I won't run off from the one I love no matter the trials and tribulations that come with this decision I made...," She trailed off as she spun and continued walking.
