Bedding My Vampire Mate

"Did you slap me…,"

"It will not end with just one slap if you don\'t lower your gaze little brat," Mr Anderson thundered.

The bewildered Derrick turned and stared at the equally shocked Raymond. His expression showed none of them expected this, at least not in front of so many people.

"Are you sure he is really her Dad?" Derrick whispered. The angry Mr Anderson shot him a bloodthirsty stare following his sentence.

"Not only did you let these toys of yours gang up on your elder sister but you dare let them mock our family. And afterwards, you want to act like the victim? What do you take me for?" Mr Anderson was beyond mad to have slapped her in public.

Laura felt a sense of satisfaction spring forth inside her watching her father embarrass her stepsister in front of the entire students.

[I have told you I will get my revenge and I bet you didn\'t believe me. This is what you deserve for going up against me]

Although she tried to put on a pitiful look, those who take a closer look at Laura will see how hard she was trying not to burst out laughing.

"Do you think I don\'t know what you have been up to all these days because I am not always at home?" Mr Anderson quizzed, his piercing glances not leaving Joanna\'s body.

"If you want to become a slut like your mother then at least let me know so that I can remove your name from the family register…,"

"I can\'t believe you just called my mother a slut without blinking," Joanna cut in. She removed her hand from her face and stood erect like the Boss Lady she claims to be.

"You of all people should know whether or not she was a whore and a homewrecker, am I right?" Joanna asked, looking at him eyeball to eyeball.

"I learn every being has a heart including the vampires who claim not to possess a heart but I doubt whether you and your wife possess one," Joanna said.

"Like husband, like the wife. A perfect match indeed I must say," She stated fearlessly.

She diverted her murderous glares to Laura who has now gone quiet after being the cause of everything.

She stomped to where her stepsister stood.

"I swear I will get back at you for this and I promised I won\'t be the one exerting revenge but your beloved mother," Joanna threatened. She brushed past Laura, almost knocking her off her feet.

"Dad, can you see what she did?" Laura said.

Raymond and Derrick followed Joanna in an instant.

"Laura, why are you so evil just like Cinderella\'s evil stepsisters?" Anthony challenged in anger.

"Did you just call me evil…,"

"Big Sis, wait for me," the upset Anthony ran off before Laura could scold him.

"Come back here, Tony," Mr Anderson shouted but Anthony didn\'t stop or act as if he heard his father\'s orders.

Joanna kept walking in big strides. Not even Anthony\'s constant calling of her name made her slow down.

The guys tried their best to keep up with her pace.

When they were far away from campus and Joanna still didn\'t slow down or take a break, the worried Raymond grabbed her by the hand.

He grabbed her shoulders and held her in place.

"If you wanna cry then cry and stop trying to act tough…,"

"Does the look in my eyes show that I wanna cry or don\'t tell me you can\'t see the killing intent in them?" Joanna asked while looking him in the eyes.

Raymond stared into her burning eyeballs. All he could see was piled-up anger and hatred.

[I guess this must be one of the things that kept her alive all these years despite the hell she went through; her strong quest for vengeance is like no other]

Raymond\'s grip around her shoulders loosened noticing that he guessed her emotions wrong.

"You don\'t only know how to talk well but I must say that you are an emotionally strong woman. Your kind is rare to find," Derrick commented.

Joanna tilted her head and glanced at him. "There was a time I couldn\'t look people in the eye, not to mention speak out. Crying was my best hobby then but I have grown past that stage," Joanna retorted.

She brushed the strands of hair blocking her view to the back.

"The stage where I cry over a father\'s love has long become past tense so…," Joanna paused, setting eyes on the fresh wounds at Raymond\'s back.

"Gosh, I almost forgot that you got wounded for my sake," Joanna replied. She held his hand and spun him so that she had a proper look at the injuries.

"Ray might be stern at times but what you don\'t know is that he has a tender heart. He can never stand and watch a pretty lady\'s face get disfigured, especially the lady he likes," Derrick chimed in.

"Rick, do you know how happy I will be the day you decide to stop spouting nonsense…,"

"Geez… you and I know this is not nonsense. You just don\'t have the guts to tell her," Derrick mumbled. He was smart enough to move away from Raymond after he finished talking.

"Did you say something?" Raymond glared at him.

Derrick smiled at him, "I said we should hurry so that we can get your injuries treated in time or else it might get infected," he lied blatantly to their faces.

"Yeah, you are right about that," Joanna said. She was so distracted and didn\'t see her little brother standing beside Derrick.

Thinking that Joanna was angry with him too, Anthony hurried to her side and grabbed her hand.

"Big Sis, please don\'t be angry with me too, hmm?" Anthony tugged her right hand as he talked.

Joanna\'s eyes widened when she lowered her gaze and saw Anthony by her side. "Hey, why the hell are you here? Aren\'t you supposed to…,"

"I knew Sister Laura will spank me hard that is why I followed you instead…,"

"By doing this not only will you get into trouble with your sister but your mum also," Joanna pats her little brother\'s hair as she talks.
