He was so concerned about getting her to talk and treat him normally again to notice that his sexy body had charmed his beloved woman.
"What is the problem....," Joanna's abrupt touch made Kayden momentarily freeze.
The words he wanted to say refused to form.
It was after this he realised why she suddenly stopped talking.
"You have such a nice body," She muttered as she made her right hand move on his abs.
He so much loved her compliment and his evil grin showed it. "It's not today I started having a nice body. I have always possessed such a heavenly body ever since I turned fifteen".
He was shameless with his reply in the same way she was shameless with her compliments.
"Also, this is not the first time you are saying it...," He trailed. His smile broadened when he saw how she couldn't take her eyes off his well-toned body.
"And I recall saying that this body of mine will solely become yours the very day you become my woman. So this means...," He let his words linger just to get her attention.
His plan to make her raise her head worked since she lifted her head after he paused midway.
"Go on," She commanded in a soft tone. Her gaze was so tender that Kayden was tempted to grab and pin her to the ground so he could take his sweet time with her.
Luckily for her, he wasn't the kind of man who forces himself on a woman or tonight would have been the day he ate her forbidden fruit.
"It means that my body became yours since the day you agreed to be my woman. Right now my body is yours to keep or do whatever you want...,"
"Do you mean you wouldn't say no even though I said I wanted us to make love right this minute?" Joanna's question caught Kayden off guard for a minute but he didn't make it obvious.
"Why don't you try and see what my response would be?" His provocative words served their purpose... because she drew closer after he completed this sentence.
"You didn't need to ask?" She smirked as she crashed her lips against his lips she has been craving to have a taste of.
She wrapped her hands around his body not giving a damn that her clothes would get wet in the process.
Joanna and Kayden were about to take their kiss to the next level when the crack of a dead branch made them pull away from each other at the same time.
"Who is there?" Joanna and Kayden chorused with their eyes settled on the area they felt the movement.
Kayden and Joanna waited. They expected to see the intruder come out of the hiding place but none showed up.
"Stop playing the hide and seek game and come out or you will forever regret this day if you...," Kayden paused halfway following what Joanna did.
The impatient lady didn't wait for Kayden to complete his words before she summoned the flames from behind both hands.
She threw the red flames into the sky and the flames floated in the sky in the form of a wishing lamp.
As if that wasn't enough shock for the day she mixed the red and green flames in her hands.
She turned the mixed flames into a ball of a small fire that resembled fireflies and let it spread around the bushes.
She did these spectacular things in seconds.
With her flames in position, the once-dark forest became bright, especially the area they stood.
"You always run away each time. Let's see how far you can run today," Joanna hissed. She tried to walk away but Kayden held her hand.
"Whoever was there is gone as you can see...,"
"He might have successfully blended himself with the darkness but believe me, my S fireflies can lead us to him," Joanna smiled and quickly followed the direction the tiny fireballs went.
"She is so damn stubborn. How can I make her understand that this is dangerous," Kayden muttered and raced after her.
Kayden and Joanna followed the fireballs, Joanna named S fireflies hoping that it would lead them to where the intruder was hiding.
But unfortunately, they didn't find a trace of anyone except the animals after circling the vast forest.
The two of them returned to the hut disappointed after their fruitless endeavour.
"Humans, werewolves and vampires always leave traces and scents but that wasn't the case with the one who intruded earlier...," Joanna trailed as she gazed at the dressing mirror in front of her.
"Each time he showed up he always disappeared like a ghost and this makes me wonder what the hell is he...,"
"Are you trying to say this is not the first time you experienced this?" Kayden questioned as he jumped to his feet. He moved away from the bed to the dressing table where she sat.
"Yes...," Joanna replied, her gaze focused on his bewildered face.
Joanna looked away from the mirror. She turned the brown chair so that they were looking at each other face to face.
"I am the one who has been tailed by some mysterious being so why do you look more astonished than someone who had just seen a ghost?" Joanna demanded.
"Do you perhaps know who the heck was that?"
She narrowed her eyes as she waited for his response.
"Does this....,"
"I don't know who that was," He lied. He turned and walked back to the bed. Kayden didn't realize how suspicious his actions made him appear.
"I am surprised and angry that someone in my Kingdom had the guts to target my woman and their Queen...,"
"Haven't I always been everyone's target and enemy ever since I was a toddler so what is surprising about being anyone's target?" Joanna asked.
She wasn't convinced by the excuse Kayden gave her and he kinda sensed it.
"Kay, are you perhaps hiding something from me...,"
"And what could I possibly be hiding from you?" He asked while avoiding looking at her.
