"Is he perhaps trying to tell me that he doesn't like me stroking his fur…," His loud growls interrupted Joanna's thoughts.
It took Joanna a lot of time and brainstorming to understand what Kayden was trying to tell him.
"I can't believe this is what he was trying to tell me but I failed to understand. Thanks for your help Bacon," Joanna sitting on the back of the huge werewolf said smiling.
She looked at the bird flying ahead of her.
"You said you wanted to take me on a ride on your back so let's go have some fun," Joanna said. She patted Kayden's fur gently.
The moment she gave him the go-ahead, Kayden leapt causing Joanna's grip around his body to tighten.
At first, Kayden ran slowly but his speed soon doubled making the excited Joanna scream at the top of her lungs.
Ahhhh***
Joanna's cheerful screams echoed in the forest.
"Whoa… This is more fun than going on a ride in a car," Joanna shouted.
Although it was dark in the forest and normally others would have felt scared with the speed Kayden was racing and leaping at, Joanna didn't feel the least scared.
She felt so thrilled. Her subconsciousness trusted him so much that even she didn't realize this.
Riding on his back, she forgot all her problems. At the moment it was as if only she and Kayden existed in the world.
After about an hour of taking Joanna on a ride around the forest, Kayden finally stopped in front of the garden he had prepared for her in the forest.
Joanna climbed down from his back and walked into the beautiful scenery.
Memories of that night he showed her this place for the first time popped up in her memory.
She chuckled when she recalled how hard she ran that day thinking he was a bad guy but only for her to realise that he was the one.
"It's still the same as that day," Joanna said beaming. "Nothing has changed but unfortunately we have both undergone a drastic change, especially me," Joanna said sentimentally.
"Although things aren't the same, back then my greatest joy was that we could enjoy this scenery together again," Joanna heard a husky man's voice behind.
"Why… why did you shift back to a human?" Joanna asked, sounding frightened.
She didn't dare turn around knowing very well that Kayden was nude.
For the night she has already seen him nude once, she didn't think she would be able to control herself if she saw him naked twice.
"Why do you keep tempting me with your naked body? Couldn't you have waited for me…,"
"And who says I am nude?" Kayden asked. He couldn't resist chuckling when she turned around and saw that he was wearing trousers leaving his upper body bare.
"Do you call that being dressed?" Joanna asked. Instead of staring at him, she stared up just to avoid looking at his tempting upper body.
Kayden walked closer to where she stood, bent so that his mouth was close to her right ear.
"If you want me to show you the difference I don't mind taking off my trousers…,"
"Pervert," Joanna exclaimed instantly, turning her back on him.
There was quietness after she finished talking.
"Right in this place, I had designed our future more than two years ago. To make this future a reality, I had schemed and pretended to be what I was not," Kayden said seriously.
Joanna raised her gaze and stared at his face.
"Just when my plans were about to come true, a little negligence I almost lost you…," Kayden trailed emotionally.
Although she has known him for her entire, Joanna could swear that she hasn't seen him this emotionally before.
"Losing you was equivalent to losing my future and that is why nothing mattered to me anymore after you left," Kayden said as he lowered his gaze to stare at her.
He lifts his right hand and strokes her smooth face.
His passionate eyes locked with hers.
"You are my present and future and that is why I came to loathe not only this place but every other thing when you left me".
"This place was a constant reminder of my failed plan and that is I never sent foot here when you were gone. That is why I left Chris in…,"
"Why do you love me so much?" Joanna asked, lost in the intensity of his burning eyes.
"I mean, I am nothing. My father hates me. In fact, I was condemned and left to die even in my mother's womb. I have nothing to offer you, so why do you choose me?"
"Does one need a reason to fall in love with someone?" Kayden whispered with a dangerous tone that made Joanna's entire body vibrate.
"Also, because others hate you doesn't mean that I should follow suit. Besides it's not my fault that everyone failed to see what my heart saw in you that made it inexplicably fall in love with you".
Kayden cupped her face when he saw that she wanted to avoid his eyes.
"Joanna Anderson, I love you. I love you so much to the point that even I can no longer control my feelings for you," Kayden stared into her innocent eyes as he spoke.
"May the stars, the moon, the flowers, the fireflies, the forest and everything in it bear witness to my love for you. I promise that in this life I will always love you and never fail you in this lifetime," Kayden said seriously.
"I love you with everything within me. My entire being says it wants no one else but you, will you give me a chance to love you and cherish you for as long as I live?" Kayden said his official proposal that he wasn't able to make back then.
His face inched closer as he stared into her affectionate eyes.
[Why can't I say no to him like I always did in the past? Why am I feeling this way? Am I really in love with him like he claimed?]
Joanna stared at him confused at the foreign feelings she was feeling.
She couldn't look away from his burning gaze nor could she avoid his advancing lips.
Against her will, her eyes closed the moment their lips met.
