Bedding My Vampire Mate

Chapter 401 He Caught Her Eavedropping

"I have always believed that you love me and I still believe you do. You find it hard to express your emotions, I guess this is why....,"

"Miss Sophie...,"

"Since you said you are busy I will leave for today but I assure you I won't give up on you," She asserted. She carried her bag and turned to leave when he refused to utter a word to her.

Sophie stepped a foot out of the car but only to close the door and shifted her attention to where he sat.

"I saw that you sometimes hang out with that stupid idiot called Joanna," She started.

"I don't care about your reason for sparing a nobody like her your attention but I would advise that you stay away from her starting from this moment...,"

"Whoever I hang out with is none of your business. Besides, you don't have any right to tell me what to do...,"

"She is a bag full of trouble. I am telling you this for your good and her safety. You don't need me to tell you how crazy I act when I am jealous," She muttered. Her words sounded like a suggestion but he knew she was indirectly threatening him.

"You are...," She opened the door and walked out elegantly, in the same manner, she entered the car.

Raymond clenched his fist as he stared at her departing back.

"How dare she threaten me?" Raymond hissed. "I guess she is behaving this way because she doesn't know the kind of devil she is messing with".

He was about to usher his driver into the car when he got a whiff of a familiar scent.

"She is here!" He smiled. He got out of the car and peered in the direction he nodded her scent.

After staring for a few seconds he almost thought he was wrong until he got a glimpse of a red silhouette.

When he realised that she wasn't aware he was out of the car he snuck up to her and tapped her on the shoulder.

"Why are you acting sneakily, Miss Butterfly?" He asked the startled lady who was grabbing his chest.

"Hey, you gave me quite a startle," She said and hit his chest slightly.

"You could have come over there but why did you choose to hide instead?" He asked after he had apologized for startling her.

"Because I didn't want to disrupt whatever conversation you were having with her. I could already imagine Sophie's mean glares if I had walked over to your car in the middle of your conversation...,"

"You are scared of her?" He interrupted her meekly.

"Hmmm... I am not scared of her. I was just being considerate," Joanna replied. She started walking towards where he parked his car.

When she reached the car she halted and leaned against his black Mercedes Benz.

"I overheard your conversation with her...," Joanna let her words linger. She tilted and gazed at him. "Are you really in love with her like she said?" She asked in a soft tone.

Raymond hesitated to give a reply. He first gazed at her and tried to guess what was going through her head.

"Why did you ask?" He demanded in a subtle tone.

"I asked not because I am nosy but because I wanted to warn you about the lady you talked with earlier. She is not an easy lady. You need to know what you are getting yourself into...,"

"I am not in love with her and whatever I had with her was all in the past. She is nothing to me," Raymond was blunt with his answer.

"Are you sure because from what I overheard it didn't sound like you both had anything to do with each other," Joanna pried for more details but not in a forceful manner.

She didn't make him feel pressurized or forced.

"You overheard our conversation from where you hid?" He asked curiously. He tilted his head sideways and stared at where he caught her hiding. And returned his gaze to her almost instantly.please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

"Yes, I did," Joanna replied.

She didn't see anything wrong with his question. Neither did she suspect that his question was a trap.

"I learned about your failed transformation at your 18th birthday party. It's a renowned fact at the moment that you are neither a werewolf nor a human so how were you able to listen to our conversation from such a far distance?" He quizzed, his gaze glued on her bewildered expression.

"T-that is...," Joanna stammered. She didn't know the explanation to give him. She couldn't blame him for asking such a question.

She could only blame herself for not filtering her words before she spoke.

"Has your transformation occurred or is there something about you that others don't know...,"

"Hey, what are you saying...,"

"You don't have to pretend or treat me like a crazy person because I know what I am saying. I also know what I saw when you saved me from falling off that tall building," Raymond said sternly.

Fuck! How could I have forgotten about that incident? I am so damned!

Joanna wanted to palm herself but she held her hands in place.

"Joan, you can confide in me and I promise I won't...,"

"Weren't we talking about your relationship with Sophie so how on Earth did we arrive at this topic?" Joanna tried to brush the topic off by returning to their previous discussion.

"Are you picking on me because you don't want to talk about your relationship with her?" She continued.

"If that is the case I won't ask you anymore...,"

"I don't have any relationship with her. If ever she confronts you claiming to be my girlfriend, don't believe a single word that comes out of her mouth," He said fiercely.

"Also, if you want to know what happened between us in the past I will tell you. This is because I don't want to hide anything from you," Raymond spoke in his most gentle tone.

But unfortunately for him, Joanna didn't seem to understand his real intention for wanting to disclose everything to her.

"Let's sit and talk over there. I will tell you all there is to know about us," Raymond suggested. He pointed his finger at a bench located across the street opposite where they stood.
