Never had he imagined that something or someone would force him to cut his vacation short.

Merely thinking about calling off his vacation before the deadline kills him from within.

If it was up to him, he would have mobilized his men to guard Joanna but doing that would attract people's attention.

It might also cause panic in the minds of his people. The biggest reason that made him give up on this thought was the fact that Joanna would detest the idea.

Judging from her temper she wouldn't mind bundling him to the palace if she learns that he might be in danger.

Joanna returned from the bathroom and met the once happy Kayden in deep thought.

She was stunned to see that a guy like him who was always on alert didn't sense her presence.

"Is there a problem?" She asked and strolled to join him on the bed.

On the bed, she lay on the inner part of the bed where he provided a space for her.

She wrapped her hand around his body and rested her chin on his chest.

"You know you can always tell me if there is a problem...,"

"There is no problem," He beamed at her. " I was thinking about how I will keep my woman happy in these remaining days...,"

"I am satisfied having you by my side so there is no need to stress yourself thinking about how to keep me happy...," Joanna gave him her sweetest smile.

"Because happiness is when I have my Kayden with me," She embraced him tighter.

"So are you trying to say you are not happy when Amos is by your side huh?" Kayden asked, pretending to be angry.

"Aren't you and him the same people?" Joanna chuckled upon seeing his pouty lips.

Joanna and Kayden talked for another twenty minutes before they fell asleep.

Kayden who has always yearned to embrace Joanna to sleep during the days Anthony was around finally got his chance tonight.

Having her in his arms he was able to get a peaceful sleep.

But unfortunately, he had to cut his peaceful sleep short when the time reached for him to send Joanna home.

"Joan, please wake up," He said and gave a gentle tap to her right hand. "It's time for me to send you home".

When he saw her change positions he grabbed the black shirt he had kept on the chair.

He slid the shirt into his body and kept his attention settled on the lady whose eyes had just fluttered open.

Joanna rubbed her eyes to chase the sleep away. With her eyes partially closed she reached out her hand to pick up her phone from the side table where she kept it.

"Your hair is a bit messy, you will need to straighten it a bit before we leave," he said to the lady who was straining her eyes to look at her phone screen.

"Isn't it too early?" Joanna frowned and dropped her phone beside her. "Besides it is still dark outside, can't we sleep a little more...,"

"We are gonna run into a lot of people if we leave later than this...,"

"And since when did the shameless and fearless Kayden I know to start caring about such trivia...,"

"Of course, I don't but I have to care about my woman's reputation shouldn't I?" Kayden asked as he tried to button up his shirt.

"Let me help you with that," She said and sluggishly stood up from bed.

She trod towards where he stood with his back facing the dressing mirror.

"So what does my reputation have to do with what we discussed?" She asked and started buttoning up his shirt.

"Rumours will start circulating if people see me drop you off at home so early. They will say you are two-timing the King. None in their wildest dreams would guess that the same guy that dropped you off is the King you are two timing....," Kayden expressed.

He resisted the urge to laugh.

"Although merely thinking about such headlines makes me wanna laugh, I don't want you to through such troubles...,"

"You are so silly," Joanna joked and hit his chest slightly.

Though he made a joke about it Joanna was so pleased to know that she was the first thing he considered.

This was not the first time he had put her well-being first but she was still thrilled to hear this.

After she helped button his shirt Joanna arranged her clothes and made sure nothing about her looks gave away what transpired between her and Kayden last night.

When he was done putting on his disguise Joanna and Amos made their way out of the forest.

As they walked into the forest, all they thought about was the intruder that ruined their sweet moments.

[I swear I will skin whoever keeps pulling this prank on me when I get a hold of him]

Joanna vouch as she turned and looked behind her.

Inside the car, Joanna leaned her head on Amos' shoulder while he drove. She clung to him as if he was gonna run away if she let go.

At the front of her home Joanna, who was unsatisfied at how soon the night ended, reluctantly let go of Amos' hand after she had flirted with him for a few minutes.

"See you again later," Joanna mumbled and waved at his car. She only entered the gate after she saw him leave.

Entering the compound Joanna felt a deadly glare focused on her. When she raised her gaze and peered at the porch where she felt the stares coming from she was surprised to see that none was around.

[I almost believed that someone in the household was watching me. I am glad to see that none was there. At least I will be saved from all the early morning dramas]

Joanna smiled and made her way towards the entrance.

Joanna was dumbfounded when she entered the sitting room and met her father sitting at the exact spot she left him the previous night.

The only difference from last night was that there were more empty bottles of whiskey on the table.

"S-sir....," Joanna stammered. She slowly walked to stand in front of the centre table.
