Bedding My Vampire Mate

Chapter 597 The Trip To Hilmert Forest



"I know you love and care about me but you will know that it's not worth putting your life in danger because of me if you spare a bit of time to think through everything…"

"And who said I am following you there solely for your sake?" Audrey blurted without thinking.

"Why? Do you have another reason for wanting to go to Golden Core Pack if not to help me with my investigation?" Joanna asked, her suspicious gaze fixed on Audrey's face which had blushed red for some unknown reason.

"That is a secret," She shouted and disappeared from the room before Joanna could pry for more answers.

"I will be done in a few minutes. I will not hesitate to break your legs if I come out and discover that you have run off without me," Audrey's cold voice echoed in the room even though she was nowhere to be seen.

"She is acting so mysterious. I wonder what she is hiding from me," Joanna grumbled as she looked towards the direction of their bedroom.

An hour later Audrey and Joanna were seen hailing a taxi some distance away from their apartment building.

After Joanna and Audrey entered the taxi, they gave the driver their location.

As the distance between them and the Kingdom got wider Joanna became more reluctant to leave.

"I know you feel uneasy leaving the Kingdom without seeing him or getting a definite answer about how he is faring. I would have felt the same way if I was in your shoes," Audrey said when she noticed how Joanna kept rubbing her hands nervously.

[Of course, they can't find the cause of his illness because it was a demon who hurt him. What were you expecting Joanna Anderson?]

Joanna thought as she peered out of the car's window.

"If the doctor said he will be alright I am sure that his words can be trusted. Remember, it's not an ordinary person who is sick. With his status, I am sure the doctors will go to hell and return to make sure that Kay is okay since their lives will depend solely on his recovery," Audrey consoled. She moved closer and embraced Joanna tightly.

"He just got married for crying out loud. I am sure he wouldn't die and leave his three-day-old wife a widow. I am not sure if he is a kind person, but I know he wouldn't do such a cruel thing to you. Do have some faith in your husband, girl, he is not that weak," Audrey coaxed playfully as she patted Joanna's hair.

"You are right about that. Anyway, it's not like our separation would last forever. As long as I get my acts together and stay focused while investigating the case, I can return to his side sooner than we estimated," Joanna said, sounding very optimistic.

"Yeah, the quicker we complete our mission the sooner you can come back to go on a honeymoon with your dear husband," Audrey teased.

The conversation continued as the driver maintained his speed on the lonely road they had driven onto not long ago.

As they got closer to Hilmert Forest, the two friends noticed the driver's mood change instantly.

"We are the ones treading into the lion's den so why is his heart panting as if he is the one who is gonna help us do the job?" Audrey whispered, her eyes fixed on the back of the driver's head.

"He is a human, unlike us. Wouldn't it have been weird if he had remained cool like us?" Joanna replied in a hunched tone. She couldn't stop herself from grinning when she recalled their first trip to this dreadful forest.

"And Hilmert Forest is not the kind of place just anyone can step foot into with a smile on his face. It's called a dreadful place for a reason. Also, I bet I trembled more than him on our first visit here," Joanna giggled.

"Hahaha… I almost forgot that moment when you trembled while holding tightly onto mine and Tony's hands," Audrey laughed. She didn't forget to imitate Joanna's expression which made her look very dramatic.

"Hey, I didn't look that way," Joanna scolded only to burst out laughing due to Audrey's hilarious acts.
