Before the person could fathom what was going on the agile Joanna grabbed the person by the neck and pressed him hard against the bed.
"How dare you try to strangle…," Joanna was speechless when she lowered her gaze and saw that the person she was pinning down was Kayden and not a killer as she thought.
"How come it's you?" Joanna asked, instantly releasing him.
Kayden sat up on the bed and stared at her face.
"I have always known that you were one gentle and loving girl so how come your grip is so hard?" Kayden asked.
He held his neck pretending to be in pain.
"What did you expect when you sneaked in on me? I thought you were a bad person and that is why I applied a lot of strength…,"
"Are you trying to tell me you had plans of breaking the person's neck if it had turned to be a bad guy like you had assumed?" Kayden asked playfully.
He made himself very comfortable on the bed notwithstanding that this was his first time entering Joanna's room.
"Why not?" Joanna said nonchalantly. "It would have been the person's luck and not my fault. I mean you don't expect me to go easy on my enemies or do you?"
"Of course not. You have the permission of your husband, the most powerful man in the Kingdom to break the necks and bones of anyone who poses a threat to you," Kayden said.
He beats his right chest playfully.
"You…,"
He stretched his hand and tapped her on the right shoulder. "You have this influential man as your backer, what is there to be afraid of?"
Joanna playfully pushed his hand away from her shoulder. "You can say whatever you like I won't argue with you because I am sure we are gonna wake up the entire neighbourhood if I follow your footsteps…,"
"It's good to know that you are aware of this," Kayden said smiling as he laid down on her bed.
There was quietness in the room afterwards.
"So why were you acting sneakily in the room of a single woman huh? What would you have me do if someone were to barge in on us?" Joanna said.
she was quite taken aback when Kayden sat up without giving her any warnings.
"It has only been a few hours since we parted ways and it felt like an eternity. It was as if I was gonna lose my mind if I didn't see you and that is why I am here," Kayden said without an ounce of shame.
He loved her and this he is very proud of. So why would he feel embarrassed about confessing his feelings for her every single day?
It's not like it is a crime to fall in love?
"You could have taken care of your feelings one way or the other instead of barging into a single lady's room? Don't you know how dangerous this is?" Joanna said sounding scared.
An idea popped into Kayden's head seeing her act this way.
"How dangerous can it be?" Kayden asked as he pulled very close to her. He stretched his upper body so that his face was a few inches from hers.
"Is it like this huh?" Kayden circled her slender waist with his powerful left hand and pulled her waist closer.
Due to the shock, Joanna suddenly stopped breathing.
"Or like this?" Kayden said as his face inched closer to hers.
Normally Joanna would have closed her eyes when he tried to kiss her but when she recalled the incident in the car that morning she quickly pushed his chest away.
She stopped him from having a taste of her delicious lips that he has subconsciously gotten addicted to.
"Don…. Don't… Don't come close to me," The flustered Joanna stammered as she shielded her chest with her hands crossed.
"Didn't you hear when I said you must keep two metres distance from me?" Joanna asked while avoiding looking at his face.
Her heartbeat was so loud that it made Kayden listening to it very happy.
He decided to tease her further.
"Your heart is pounding so fast thump… thump… ba…. boom… ba…. bump…," Kayden said as he drew closer to her once again.
"Your heart is very excited about me just like your body keeps failing what your brain wants," Kayden's smile broaden.
He lowered his head and brought his mouth to her right ear.
"This is the sign that you love me too so stop rejecting me ok," Kayden's smile spread across his face as he quickly licked her lips causing Joanna's body to immediately stiffened.
"You…," Kayden didn't give her the chance to push him away but he pulled away after he was done saying what he wanted to.
Seeing that she was becoming a joke because of her body and heart, Joanna decided to change the topic.
"Don't you know how dangerous it is for you to be here? Can you imagine the rumours that will spread about us if someone sees both of us here?" Joanna asked.
"They will think we did that… you know what I mean," Joanna deliberately refused to say the word so that Kayden will not use it against her.
"Instead of letting them wrong us by speculating things why don't we do those things here so that we will feel less wronged even though they spread the rumour," Kayden said.
He tried to make her lay on the bed but Joanna resisted with all her might.
Joanna shielded her chest with the quilts after she was able to escape from Kayden.
"Stay away from me. You are a great danger to my system so keep away ok," Joanna said.
They were still talking when two of them heard someone approaching her bedroom.
"Someone is coming," Joanna and Kayden said at the same time.
Kayden turned and gave her a puzzled look.
"Is your sense of hearing the same as mine?" Kayden asked curiously.
"That is not what is important right now. The most pressing issue is that you need to leave before the person reaches here," Joanna said as she quickly pushed him out of bed.
"But why do I need to sneakily leave? Have you forgotten that I am the King…,"
"Yeah I did forget that you are the King because you are the first King I have seen sneaked into a single lady's room at night," Joanna said as she urged him to go.
Unlike the nervous Joanna, Kayden for some reason looked very relaxed even though the person was coming very close to Joanna's door.
[Is it Adhara this time around]
Joanna's head was all over the place trying to find a place for Kayden to hide.
