Chapter 74 Sleeping Together

Seeing her react this way surprised Kayden but when his words replayed in his memory he understood why she reacted the way he did.

[Since she has taken that direction, why don't I take full advantage of it. As usual, it will be thrilling to tease her]

Kayden smirked devilishly as he stood up from where he sat.

He went and stood beside her.

"I want to hold and feel you in my arms," Kayden whispered erotically into her ears making Joanna tremble.

"I want to feel your warmth and sniffed your natural scent that is capable of driving…,"

"No… no… Never!" Joanna shouted as she ran and stood far from him.

"Even though you are the King, I won't let sleep with you, never!" Joanna yelled instantly covering her chest with her hands crossed.

Kayden couldn't suppress the laughter anymore so he burst out laughing hard.

Hahaha….

Hahaha…

His laughter echoed in the forest. Joanna frowned, not understanding what part of her sentence was so funny to crack him up this way.

"Hey, silly girl! I was only asking you to sleep together on the same bed with me so what were you thinking huh?" Kayden burst out in a peal of deafening laughter yet again.

Joanna felt like strangling herself when she learned that she misunderstood his definition of 'SLEEPING TOGETHER'.

"What exactly were you thinking huh?" Kayden asked as he winked naughtily at the embarrassed lady.

"Did you think that I wanted you to have sex with me hmm?" Kayden asked him as he went and stood very close to her.

"What… what…," Joanna's head momentarily went black.

"Do you love me so much that you can't wait to bed me?" Kayden suppressed the laughter that was threatening to burst out.

"I also love you and I don't mind bedding you too if that's what you want…,"

"Hey, what are you saying? Stay away from me," Joanna said. She took to her heels in embarrassment.

Kayden stood and watched her run away as fast as a cheetah.

"Hehe… She is so adorable. And her cuteness is one of the reasons I can't resist teasing her," Kayden's smile brightened.

He walked to the hut too.

When he got there, he met Joanna laying on the bed with her body covered from head to toe.

He tried talking to her but she didn't reply or react to what he said.

"Don't talk to me," Joanna said angrily without pulling off the blanket from her head.

"It's true that I want to sleep with you. I wasn't joking around when I said this," Kayden said seriously. He stood up and walked to the bed where she lay.

He sat on the bed.

"I won't lay a hand on you if you don't want me to…,"

"But why would you want to sleep here and share this tiny bed with me when you have a huge bed to yourself at the Palace?" Joanna asked as she slowly pulled the blanket off her head.

"Because I don't know when I am gonna get the opportunity to get close to you like this again. And I don't want to lose this chance," Kayden said, staring at her face lovingly.

"But…,"

"You are owing me a wish and I want to use my wish right now. So that means you are not allowed to say no," Kayden said sternly.

"You want to use your wish for an opportunity to lay with me?" Joanna asked in astonishment.

She was hoping for him to ask for something difficult but here he was asking for something trivial.

"You could have asked for something huge with the wish so why did you ask for…,"

"Because sharing a bed with you is priceless," Kayden replied with a smile.

"It's something I can't buy despite my riches, power and influence. Don't you agree with me that what I asked for is precious," Kayden concluded.

Joanna stared at him in silence. She has always thought that she knew Kayden very well but right this moment she realised that she was far from knowing him.

"You can sleep on the same bed with me but…,"

"I promise on my honour as the King that I won't go beyond any boundaries and even though I wanted to, I promise that I will ask for your permission," Kayden said.

He quickly laid beside her on the bed. He wrapped his hands around her body but only for Joanna to try to remove his hand from her body.

"Hey, why are you cuddling me? I might have let you sleep beside me but you are not allowed to come so close to me," Joanna said. She still tried to free herself from him but Kayden wouldn't let go.

"Also, don't forget what you promised me…,"

"Indeed I said I wouldn't have sex with you but I never mentioned that I wouldn't hug you," Kayden said shamelessly.

"You are cheating…,"

"And I might have said I won't touch you in that way but I can't promise that I will reject you if you suddenly bounce on me because you could no longer control your desires…,"

"I am the one who should be saying that. You are full of mischief and I'm scared I might fall victim to your tricks," Joanna said as she struggled to stand up but the strong Kayden held her in place.

"Since I have given you my word then you can trust me to keep it. And if peradventure you bounce on me in the middle of the night, don't worry I will tie you up so you don't tempt me too," Kayden whispered into her ears making her body stiffen due to his hot breath that grazed her skin.

"You…,"

"Stop talking and let's sleep or I will be forced to tease you the entire night," Kayden's threats made Joanna keep quiet instantly.

Kayden fell asleep cuddling Joanna. Even when he fell asleep his grip around her body didn't loosen.

Joanna also drifted to sleep in his embrace.

The next day Joanna was awakened by the chirping of birds and the ray of light that shone into the room through the window.

She tried to sit up but only to realize that Kayden's grip around her body didn't loosen

[Does he love me so much that even in his subconsciousness he doesn't want to let go of me]

Joanna stared at his face. She couldn't help but find him even more handsome asleep.

She kept on gazing at his face. She was tempted to touch his flawless face which hadn't sustained a scratch.

Even though he did sustain an injury his wound will always close up since he is a vampire.

"Although he can be quite a handful, I have to admit that he is not that bad," Joanna said smiling. She raised her hand and touched his sexy natural pink lips.

"Wow, they are so soft, even softer than the pillows," Joanna smiled.

For a moment she forgot that she was playing with the shameless Kayden's lips and not a log of wood.

"If I am not that bad then why do you keep rejecting me," Kayden said as he opened his eyes to stare at the awestruck lady.

Joanna tried to remove her hand from his lips but the cunning Kayden grabbed her hand.

He pulled her so close that Joanna could feel his warm breath on her face.

He grabbed her waist with his left hand, making sure that there was no escape route for her.
