Bedding My Vampire Mate

"From the example I just gave I am sure you must understand what I am trying to tell you right?" Amelia demanded.

[I indeed want to be with him and make the best out of the remaining days I have left to spend with him before he returns to the Palace but what if Amelia's words are true?]

Sitting there, her mind was preoccupied with thoughts. and Amelia was observant enough to notice that.

She kept on drinking and chose not to disrupt Joanna's thoughts.

[According to what she said, wouldn't our desire to spend more time with each other bring him more harm than good...]

"Hello," A man's fool voice put a stop to Joanna's thought.

She raised her gaze and reluctantly turned her head to look at where the voice came from like she was forced to do that.

"Would you give me the honour of sharing the same table with great beauties like you?" The man was polite and full of respect.

He wasn't like any of the men either of them had run into in clubs or bars.

"We are fine so that won't be necessary...,"

"Don't be in a rush to reject my proposal, ok?" He said.

Although he was talking to Amelia, he kept looking at Joanna whose mind wandered far away.

"My name is Donald. I am new to the Kingdom. I am pleased to meet you," He said and stretched forth his hand towards Joanna.

Even though Amelia didn't notice his previous actions, this gesture of his made her realize that the man had eyes for Joanna.

[Is this another love rival for His Majesty or is he a passerby in their love story?]

Amelia assessed the guy with her discerning eyes.

Although the brown-haired guy wasn't as handsome as Kayden or Raymond, he wasn't ugly either.

He possessed sharp features that made him stand out. His natural pink lips were something that would make ladies crave a bite of its deliciousness.

"By new to the Kingdom, does that mean you are from the human world?" Amelia asked.

"Wow! How did you guess that so easily?" He quizzed. He used this opportunity to sit on the only spare chair at their table.

"Those at Golden Core Pack don't associate with us. At the moment only the human world has dealings with us so that is why it was easy for me to guess that," Amelia returned his polite question with a polite reply.

"That is...,"

"She never said you could sit so why did you do that?" Joanna, whom the guy wanted to talk to, finally spoke but her first sentence was that of interrogation.

Her question made the guy look beside him. He almost thought she was talking to another person until he looked and confirmed that none was sitting beside him.

"Don't you know that is rude of you...,"

"I did that because I knew I would spend the entire night on my feet if I was to wait for you ladies' invitation," Donald replied. He forced a smile so the atmosphere won't be awkward.

But not even his consideration or fake smile made Joanna go easy on him.

"If you guessed that much then I am sure your clever brain would have let you know that the reason we didn't invite you was that you are not welcome here," Joanna was blunt with her words.

And the most amazing part was that she looked into the guy's eyes and said these harsh words.

The silence that soon engulfed their table was one neither Amelia nor Donald expected.

Amelia never expected Joanna to react the way she did.

[Seeing how she lashed out at him I bet my words did rile her up although she didn't let it show. I guess it was his bad luck for coming at the wrong time]

Though Amelia didn't expect this outburst from Joanna she was happy she said the words she did.

At least her harsh words would break whatever feelings, and fantasies the guy had towards Joanna.

"I don't know what I did that made you upset but believe me when I said I had no evil intentions...," He trailed. His gaze moved from Joanna's angry face to Amelia's which was neutral.

"I am new here and I was hoping we could be friends...,"

"You are smart and so I am sure that you must know that nothing that is forced ends well. Be it friendship, relationship, respect or whatnot," Joanna retorted.

Amelia has seen Joanna angry so many times and that is why she was able to detect that there was something wrong with her annoyance at the moment.

[Is she acting this way because she knows the guy's intention or is she outrightly being mean to him?]

Amelia could not come up with a conclusion despite her deep thoughts.

"She clearly said we were fine alone and I am certain you knew she wasn't joking about it so...,"

"I don't know what I did to make you hate me so much but I will apologise...,"

"Actually I don't hate you," She said, a bit cool-headedly. "I am just upset that you didn't respect us despite that we made our point crystal clear".

After receiving so much scolding from her, he was finally able to learn what action of his infuriated her so much.

"I didn't think that far so I apologise for my action," Donald was humble enough to admit his mistakes.

[Although we barely met, I must confess that he is cool-headed and respectful. He is not an asshole like most of the men I have come across]

Amelia grinned inwardly when she saw the sincerity in his eyes as he apologized.

"It wasn't my intention to disrespect you, ladies. I just thought that you ladies were cool and I was eager to make friends with you both," He spoke in a sober tone.

It took Joanna two minutes to ease her anger. She got rid of the scowl on her face and adjusted the way she sat.
