Soon enough her persistence paid off. Joanna caught up to the guy at the edge of the cliff.
"Who the hell are you and why were you in my room?" Joanna demanded coldly.
"Who sent you to assassinate me huh? Say it or else I will make you face something worse than death?" Joanna threatened fiercely, her right hand glowing red in an instant.
"Joan!" A familiar voice called out to her.
The flame in Joanna's hand distinguished the moment the figure at the edge of the cliff turned around and revealed his face.
"K-k-kay!" Joanna yelled and her voice echoed in the forest.
For a minute Joanna thought she was seeing things since she only regained consciousness not long ago.
Even after she rubbed her eyes twice she still couldn't believe that the one standing in front of her was her lover.
"Weren't you unconscious, so what are you doing here?" Joanna demanded, not daring to move closer for some unknown reason.
"Also, the security at the pack is tight. It's almost impossible to get past the security guards guarding the territory so how did you get here?" Joanna continued with her interrogation.
Although the one in front of her had the face of her lover due to the circumstances surrounding the condition Kayden was in when she left the Kingdom she couldn't bring herself to believe that he was the one.
"Ok, ok, you caught me there. I should have known better that my smart wife wouldn't get easily fooled like that," Kayden said in defeat.
"Come, let's sit over there and I will tell you why I ran when I realised that you were not unconscious like I was informed," Kayden continued.
He grabbed her hand and led her to the edge of the cliff where they sat beside each other.
A few minutes into their conversation Joanna who was previously on edge was able to relax around Kayden.
"Actually, I am not surprised you have spies here since ancient times kings were known to be wary of their enemies. But what I want to know is if it's safe for you to be here," Joanna voiced her fears. She pulled away from the arms of the man she was resting on.
"Apart from the fact that you being a vampire alone will cause trouble, I am afraid that a war might break out if you are caught and they learn about your real identity in the process. We will be accused of being partners…"
"No such thing will happen so you can relax. Also, have you forgotten that I am a hybrid hmm?" Kayden smiled at her instead of being anxious just like her.
"Nobody will find out that I am a vampire except I want them to so you can enjoy this private time with me at ease because no such thing will happen," Kayden assured her. He pulled her onto himself once again.
"But…"
"My wife just became the most powerful figure in the pack. Do you think I will let her get into trouble before she can enjoy her reign?" Kayden teased. He hugged her just as much as he had missed her.
On the cliff, the two lovebirds chatted and played together until it was morning.
While they chatted Joanna had forgotten that this moment was short-lived until it reached the time for them to part ways.
"Joan, it's less than an hour before my usual morning bathe. The maids will enter my room to get me prepared for my morning assembly. There will be chaos in the palace if news gets out that the King who was supposed to be unconscious had gone missing from his inner chambers," Kayden said while stroking the hair of the lady whose head was resting on his legs.
"You said you regained consciousness five days ago, are you telling me that no one was aware that you had woken up? Not even the maids?" Joanna asked. She adjusted her head so that he was staring at his face
