"What!" Mr Martinez who has made so many sacrifices just because he wanted to take his grandson with him shouted with widened eyes.
"Your Majesty, you are…,"
"Take them with you. I am sure you don't need me to tell you where they belong right?" Kayden said emotionlessly to his guards.
He strolls away paying no listening ears to their pleas.
"If they had the guts to kill someone then they must be gutsy enough to face the consequences," Kayden muttered before he vanished into space.
That night he didn't sleep at the Palace but went to keep Joanna company in hopes that she won't feel lonely.
Remembering that incident Kayden could not resist smiling.
"Why are you grinning now hmm?" Joanna nudged him gently to bring him back to the present.
"Are you not going to teach me how you tamed him? I want tips so I will know how to tame Adhara and Laura…,"
"Why do you need tips when everyone in the Kingdom including them has been tamed by you?" Kayden chuckled when he recalled the incident at the party.
Maybe for fifty years to come, he will still laugh anytime he recalls this fateful night.
"But…,"
"If you think they are still not tamed enough then hold a dagger to their necks? There is nothing people love more than their lives, believe me," Kayden said confidently.
"Why does it sound like you have become cruller after I was away?" Joanna asked. Her questions were supposed to be a joke but Kayden didn't see it as one.

"But I lost every bit of humanity left in me the day they stole the most important thing in my life," Kayden said, this time around he gulped down the entire champagne in the glass.
"Why are you suddenly acting so serious?" Joanna asked, seeing how drastically his mood had changed.
She watched him as he dropped the glass on the bonnet.
"I am so used to seeing that sly look in your eyes and get very scared when you act so serious…,"
The words stopped coming when Kayden cupped her face catching her unawares.
"And you will continue to see this lovely side of mine for as long as you want. All I want is for you to promise never to leave me again hmm," Kayden said as he stroked her face affectionately.
There were pains and desperation in his eyes as he stared into her purple eyes.
"I didn't love you this much and I went insane when you left. Joan, I can't imagine the kind of havoc I will cause if you leave me again so promise me…,"
"I know we have gotten very close lately but don't you think you are asking too much for a girl who isn't…,"
"Please Joan, just promise me ok? And in return, I promise that I will never stop loving you. You will be the only woman I love in this lifetime," Kayden made his vows right there and then.
Joanna stared into his eyes. Seeing him this way for some reason she couldn't bring herself to push him away.
"I have just come back from the dead so I have no plans of going anywhere or dying for the second time ok?" Joanna replied, deliberately not making promises.
Nothing hurts more than broken promises and shattered dreams.
She didn't want him to experience these two things.
"That's good enough then," Kayden smiled at her.
"Do you know that you are such a weird guy? How could your mood change so drastically?" Joanna asked seeing that his mood had brightened up after she replied.
"This is not the first or second time you have told me this so this means I must really be a weird guy hmm," Kayden said jokingly.
"What a weird King you are," Joanna replied.
She and Kayden sat and enjoyed themselves on the bonnet for a few hours before they entered the car.
Kayden and Joanna spent the night inside the car right at that spot.
They talked throughout the night. It was about an hour to daybreak that Joanna fell asleep with her head resting on Kayden's shoulders.
"I never knew it was so fascinating to watch someone sleep until now," Kayden mumbled as he stared intensely at Joanna's sleeping face.
"I wonder when I am gonna have another opportunity like this," Kayden said as he lifted his right hand to touch her face.
Just when his hand was about to reach her, Joanna's eyes opened. He didn't retract his hand or pretend to be doing something else.
"What were you trying to do to me this early morning?" Joanna asked as she quickly shielded her face with her palms.
Kayden drew closer when he saw how overprotective she was of her face.
"I wanted to have a feeling of how your mouth tastes early in the morning. I wanted to see whether it tastes as sweet as it tastes at night." Kayden said as he shifted closer.
"Thank goodness you woke up at the perfect time. Now I won't have to sneakily have a taste of it. I will…,"
"Stay away from me, you beast," Joanna blurted as she immediately covered her mouth with her hands.

Kayden laughed hysterically as he pulled back from her.
He laughed until Joanna got annoyed with his laughter but that didn't stop him from laughing further.
"Stop acting so cutely or I might really lose control of myself and pounce on you. By then you will know just the kind of beast I am," Kayden said amidst his laughter.
"And who says I am weak too in that aspect?" Joanna asked, sounding very confident.
"Why don't we give it a try right now to determine who is the real beast and who is still learning?" Kayden said as he drew closer to her.
He shifted closer to her until her back was pressing hard against the car's door.
"Let's see whether you are strong enough to handle my roughness," Kayden said as he lowered his face to kiss her.
"You will have to call me Daddy if you get tired before I do," Kayden said as he kissed her.
