Bedding My Vampire Mate

Chapter 120 What Do You Mean?

?"You are right about that. Not all people who smile are happy. Just in the same way in which not all those who wear fancy clothes are necessarily rich…," Kyle got all emotional when he recalled the past.

"This is what so many people are not aware of. It's not until you cry and say IT HURTS that you are in pain. Even those who smile the brightest might be silently crying for help".

"You a hundred per cent correct. Not everyone who looks happy is happy like they try to portray," Joanna supported firmly.

"Let me not bore you with life talks and continue with what we were talking about," Kyle said.

"The little boy who knew nothing other than fighting and reading became more cheerful when we became friends and this was all thanks to me and Tom's efforts".

"We did everything together in the past but we realised sometimes that he always snuck out without telling us his destination. We noticed this so many times and we got worried that he might be doing something bad within our back…,"

"So did you both find out what he was doing by sneaking out?" Joanna asked curiously.

[I wonder if this is the truth that I have been waiting for? I can't wait to know what happened to him]

Joanna subconsciously smiled thinking that her quest to know more about what actually happened to Kayden will come true here.

"We realised after secretly following him that he was coming to meet you….,"

"What!" Joanna remarked, not knowing whether or not to feel happy about this.

"Yeah, we were just as surprised as you when we discovered his secret. I mean everyone had thought that you both weren't close, so you can imagine how surprised we were to know that you and your friend were his secret playmates", Kyle smiled happily.

Kyle stretched his hand and picked up the glass of whiskey. He took a sip from it and returned the glass to its original position.

"At first Tom and I had planned to disclose the truth to his father but when we saw just how happy he was we had second thoughts about it".

Kyle smiled like he had recalled something.

"Can you imagine what the Grumpy guy said when we asked to join you guys too after we forced him to tell us about you?" Kyle's smile broadened as the memory of that incident flushed into his head.

"What did he say?" Joanna asked, her disappointment was long gone.

[What is there to be disappointed that I couldn't find out the truth from his friend. I will just wait for Kay to tell me the truth by himself when he is ready]

Joanna smiled as she got prepared to learn more about Kayden without getting distracted.

"The stingy guy refused. He even threatened to break our legs if ever we secretly followed him again," The hilarious manner in which Kyle relayed the incident made Joanna laugh.

"Since he was the type to be feared whenever he is angry Tom and I dared not follow him because of the consequences…,"

"Haha… I never knew he was that scary until you said it…,"

"The Grumpy guy has always been scary sincere he was young and this made him unapproachable. I guess that is why he doesn't have many friends…," Kyle deliberately trailed to get her attention.

"In the entire Kingdom, you are the only one he treats so nicely. He has never shown you his scary side because he truly loves. In fact, I believe he had always loved you even when he was little but didn't just realise his feelings for you," Kyle said seriously.

Ever since she sat down with him, Joanna could swear that this is the first time she had seen the guy so serious.

"Since he hardly let women close to him, we had thought that he was gonna die a lonely man but Tom and I were so thrilled when he told us that he had feelings for you," Kyle said his gaze centred on Joanna's face to make sure that she was listening to him.

For his friend's happiness, he will go to any length to make sure that he got his own happy ending.

"Although our relationship became a bit strained after he became King, can you believe out of everyone else that you are the only one whom he made sure that his position didn't come in between your friendship?"

Joanna has always thought that Kayden still keeping in contact with her even after he became the King wasn't a big deal until Kyle said it just now.

"Will you believe that I get jealous of you sometimes?" Kyle asked as he adjusted well on the chair.

"You are jealous of me? But why?" Joanna asked confused.

For as long as she can remember she doesn't have anything worth anyone being jealous of.

"Because you are the only one Kay has in his heart. He is willing to do anything just for you".

"I mean in this century which man would be willing to go this far for the sake of love?" Kyle asked seriously.

"Just because he wanted to spend time with you he didn't hesitate the slightest bit to live his home and everything important to him just to live here…," Kyle demonstrated with his hands as he talked.

Joanna took a second to think about what Kyle said.

Everything she always took trivia just because she got it without working hard, she just realised that it wasn't as trivia as she thought.

? "Can you believe that even when his father, his only closest family suddenly died, he didn't break down…," Kyle said emotionally. For the first time, he avoided Joanna's eyes as he spoke.

"But he didn't only break down but he lost his mind and did things he has never done all his life when everyone thought that you had died".

"What do you mean?" Joanna asked worriedly.

"Didn't he tell you what happened during the period you went missing?" Kyle asked shifting his attention back to her.

"Of course, I know what he did…,"

"Does that he told you how he bit and killed…,"

"What are you guys seriously talking about?" A guy's cool voice stopped Kyle from divulging the truth to Joanna.

Kyle was stunned when he saw that the one who interrupted him was Kayden.

[I didn't sense his presence anywhere close so how did he get here so fast?]

Kyle thought his gaze centred on Kayden's smiling face.
