Chapter 139 I Will Do It

"Hey!" Laura shouted to get their attention. She stomped to the table when neither Joanna or Amos pulled away from each other.

She extended her hand and tried to yank Joanna away from him. Joanna turned in time and grabbed her hand.

"I recall saying that you should know how you swing your hand whenever I am around. But why does it feel like you forget things easily?" Joanna questioned her fierce glares on Laura's hand.

"How brazen of you to challenge me after the despicable things you did with him in this room…,"

"Watch your tongue," Amos, now standing beside Joanna, reprimanded the furious Laura.

"And who is this idiot?" Laura bellowed, her fiery eyes diverted to Amos' face. She tilted her head back slightly as she glared at him.

"You are so…,"

"You don't talk when I am talking, got it…," Joanna applied pressure to her hand while still holding Laura's hand.

Laura let out a painful groan. She struggled to free her hand but Joanna refused to let go.

"You can insult me as much as you want but I won't spare you if you try to use the tone you used with me on him…,"

"Hahaha… you want to shamelessly protect him?" Laura laughed mockingly, ignoring her painful hand.

"Let's see whether you will still be able to keep on this haughty attitude of yours when I report you to Mum and Dad…,"

"You wouldn't dare!" Joanna's gaze grew darker as she stared at Laura.

Laura grimaced, "Watch me do it". She yanked her hand away from Joanna's hold.

She proceeded to the door.

"If you want to report to them, go ahead…," Joanna trailed her gaze glued on the back of the lady about to reach the brown door.

"But I wonder what Stepmother will do when she learns what you did with him on that fateful night," Joanna's lips curled into an evil smirk seeing Laura stopped in her tracks.

"When she heard that you didn't only disobey her order and met him but was even kissing him in the dark alley. He gropes your…,"

"Shut the hell up," Laura snapped, spinning to look at where Joanna and Amos stood.

Joanna strolled to the bed placed at the far right corner of the room. She sat down majestically with her legs crossed.

"Ever since that night I saw you both together a thought keeps bothering me… do you care to satisfy my curiosity?" asked Joanna as though the fuming Laura had any choice.

No matter what Laura chose she will still do what is on her mind.

"Do you think Stepmother will really go ahead and kill him like she said she would that night? Or…,"

"How dare you threaten me?" Laura lost her cool and charged towards where Joanna sat.

She was about five steps away when her claws became visible.

"Back off if you don't want to get hurt," Amos held her hand and pushed her backwards to create a space between the mean lady and his mate.

"Seeing how angry you are merely hearing my word I can see that you really care about him. And if you really care about him like you want me to believe…," Joanna said as she stood up from where she sat.

"Then you will keep your mouth shut…. In fact, you will stay away from everything that concerns me from today onwards if you want him to remain safe for a long time, got it?" Joanna concluded coldly.

Laura clasped her fists, her murderous glares centred on Joanna.

"You have done your share but I promise you, this is not over. Sooner or later you will understand the feeling of being threatened using a loved one," Laura stated. She spun and stomped out of the room in the similar way she did when she entered.

BAM!

The door slammed closed.

HAHAHA!

Amos burst out in a peal of deafening laughter the instant the defeated Laura stomped out of the room.

"What's so funny that is causing you to crack up so much?" Joanna frowned, strolling back to the bed.

"Do you even need to ask?" Amos questioned. He proceeded to stand in front of where she sat on the bed.

"Don't you love and feel satisfied seeing her defeated look?" Amos bent and squatted in front of her.

"I mean even though I was aware of how capable you are I was still worried that even with your ability they wouldn't stop to maltreat you…,"

"Maltreat me?" Joanna scoffed as she crossed her long legs. "If they are not all careful they will be the ones who end up getting mistreated by me. Do you know why?" asked Joanna as she lowered her gaze to look at his face.

"Why?" Amos asked.

Although he witnessed just how immense her power is he couldn't stop himself from worrying about her.

He was afraid that instead of stopping, their maltreatment would worsen if they found out about her powers.

But after what he witnessed, he realised that the woman sitting in front of him was not one to easily mess up with.

Knowing that she could protect herself physically and mentally made him very happy.

"Because right now powers have changed hands," Joanna said grinning.

She stretched out her hands and within the space of a second, her hands glowed red and green respectively.

"Having this is cooler than being a werewolf, vampire or human and they will all come to admit that," She said. Her palms returned to normal in the same manner the fire emerged.

With the way she talked and the fiery look in her eyes, Amos needed no one to tell him that she was in a bad mood.

"You seem to be in a bad mood… although I don't know why you are like this I happened to know the perfect way to lighten up your mood…," Joanna jerked to her feet, almost knocking Amos down.

She proceeded to stand in front of the window and gazed outside.

[He definitely said I LOVE YOU so why didn't the notification screen show that the mission was completed?]

Joanna stood there staring into space despite Amos being in the same room with her.

"Let's go on a date," Amos stated, as he strolled to where she stood.

The echoing of his words in her head made her snap out of it. She stared at him with widened eyes.

"Your wish…,"

"If you go back on your words and disagree then get ready to put up with me the entire day," Amos said with a stern expression.

He disappeared only to reappear laying on her bed.

"Because I am not gonna go anywhere," Amos spread his arms and legs. He occupied the entire space on the bed.

"You…," Joanna pointed her index finger at him but he tilted his face to the other side.

Seeing him act wilfully like a child made Joanna speechless.

"Don't forget to tell me when you have made up your mind. I need to know whether or not to call Chris to bring my blankets," Amos informed as he closed his eyes.

Joanna stomped to the bed realising that he wasn't kidding around this time around.

"Do you know how shameless you are acting…,"

"Don't you think the one going back on her words is the shameless one?" Amos questioned.

His eyes fluttered open to reveal his black sexy orbs. "Or would you have preferred I asked you to marry me instead…,"

"I…," He lifted his upper body slightly off the bed, extended his hands and pulled her with a bit of force.

She fell on the bed crashing into him. In a flash, he wrapped his hands around her waist leaving her no escape route.

Joanna raised an eyebrow. She wanted her eyes and expression to come out stern but looking into his eyes she felt her anger dissipate.

Her heartbeat began to increase. She struggled to free herself knowing very well what would come next if she kept laying on his body in this condition.

"Since you prefer being my wife to going on a date with me, why don't we make it official…,"

"Isn't it just going on a date?" Joanna cut in. "I will do it," She finally said the words he wanted to hear.

"Really?" Amos asked suspiciously.

"Yeah," She replied without wasting time. He didn't release her until he confirmed that she wasn't playing a prank on him.

She jumped to her feet and straightened her clothes after he let go of her.

"Since you have agreed, you are not allowed to go back on your words," He stated, sitting up on the bed.

"Neither are you allowed to regret your decision," Amos grinned evilly as he stood up from the bed.

The sly smile on his face made Joanna realize that there was more to the date. She has walked into his trap without knowing it.
