Bedding My Vampire Mate-Chapter 536 Joanna Acted Indifferent

"Thanks for your company and see you tomorrow," Raymond whispered. He bent and wrapped his hands around her body before Joanna knew what he was up to.

"Ray...," Joanna, whose hands were about to grab Raymond's right shoulder, paused in mid-air the moment she got a glimpse of the face of a guy staring at her.

[I can't believe what I wanted to avoid really happened no matter how hard I tried to stop it... Should I be happy about this or what?]

Joanna's eyeballs remained on the frowning guy's face despite being in deep thought.

Joanna slowly let down her hand without pushing Raymond away like she wanted to.

"Sweet dreams. I will pick you up tomorrow...,"

"You are swamped already. I don't think it's fair to add more to your plate. Besides I can always go in Drey's car," Joanna interrupted in a soft tone.

She tried to look and sound as natural as she could so that Amos would assume something was going on between her and Raymond.

"For you, I can always create time. Also, picking you up is not a burden. You don't know how much I love spending time with you," He admitted and pulled away from her.

Raymond also knew that Amos was standing not far away but he acted as if he wasn't aware of it.

"Since you are the one who said it I won't argue with you about it. Just make sure to have enough rest," Joanna beamed at him.

Although it seems as if her attention was concentrated on the guy in front of her, the truth was that her mind had run rampant.

Her mind was occupied with the thoughts of what must be going through Amos' mind.

"I will call when I get home in case you get worried about me," Raymond gave her his sweetest smile.

Despite that it was obvious that Raymond was being overly friendly with her, Amos who stood far away didn't say a word or accused him of flirting with his girlfriend like he would have done on a normal day.

[He is being unusually well-behaved which is so unlike him. What has come over him?]

Amos' silence made Joanna anxious. He was so unusually quiet for the hot-tempered Kayden that she knew which was why she couldn't stop herself from thinking that he was planning something underneath his silence.

"See you tomorrow," Joanna waved at him and moved away from the side of the car.

She watched Raymond hop into his car. Joanna didn't make any attempt to leave there until she saw Raymond's driver drive away.

Even after Raymond left Joanna continued to play ignorant about Amos' presence.

"Have I become so insignificant that you won't even acknowledge my presence?" Amos spoke up, at last, his cold gaze fixated on the back of the lady who was about to walk away.

He strolled to where she stood when he noticed she had paused in her tracks.

"If you have a problem with me, you can always talk it out with me like I normally did with you. You don't have to go to this extent to make me jealous...,"

"And what the hell are you implying by that huh?" Joanna fired. She spun and shot him a piercing glare.

"Are you in any case trying to say that I am faking my closeness with Raymond to get you jealous...,"

"Am I wrong about that?" Amos questioned, his eyeballs locked with hers.

[And that is the problem with him. Just like Drey, he knows me way too well to know when it is the real me and when I am faking it?... How am I gonna make him jealous to the point that he doubts my love when he seems to have seen through my plans?]

Joanna peered at his face in silence. She tried to think of what to do and say to convince him that he was wrong.

"Anna, I know you are mad at me and I...,"

"If that is what you believed then let me tell you that you are wrong," Joanna asserted. She was scared that she would give herself away if she looked into his eyes so she lowered her eyes instead.

"Ray is in love with me. He has always made it obvious so I am sure you should be aware of this right or wasn't that the reason you hated it whenever he was around me?" Joanna hardened her heart and used his insecurities against him.

Although at first, she wasn't aware of why Amos got moody whenever Raymond and Derrick were around, she got to know the reason later.

Since then she tried not to get too close to Raymond knowing too well how her man feels about him.

"Of course, I knew how he felt about you from the beginning...," Amos trailed off. He walked closer so that the gap between them no longer existed.

"And do you want me to tell you something else?" Amos asked. He held her shoulders and bent so that Joanna could feel his hot breath against her bare skin.

At that moment her body stiffened. She brought her right hand to her sides and pinched herself hard hoping that the pain would make her stay sane for as long as this lasted.

"W-w-what...," Joanna felt like slapping her mouth when she heard her trembling voice. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝑚

How would she be able to convince him that she was no longer in love with him when his mere touch was all he needed to wreak havoc on her entire system?

"I also know that you don't love him," He whispered into her ears. His provocative tone caused an electrifying sensation to run down her spine.

And Joanna responded by biting her lower lips hard.

Amos pulled away in time to see her biting down her lower lips.

"No matter how hard you try to deny it, I know you love me... No, in fact, you never for once stopped loving me so quit with the pretence hmm," Amos muttered.

He leaned in and acted as if he wanted to kiss her.
