Chapter 587 They Shut Her Out

No matter how desperately Joanna wanted to catch the demon, she knew she couldn't move any further.

This was not out of fear of what happened in the past but because she knew an issue might arise if she ran into the Golden Core Pack's territory just like that.

"You can try and run as far as you can but keep one thing in mind..." Joanna muttered and glared at the direction the demon ran into.

"I am coming for you. No one in this world can hurt my husband and go scot-free. Mark my words because I will be the one who puts an end to you the next time we meet," Joanna clenched her fist and kept staring into the dark.

After staying there for some minutes Joanna turned and walked back into the Kingdom.

When she returned to the palace it was already bright outside.

The first thing Joanna noticed as she approached the palace gates was the increase in the number of guards.

She was still some distance away from the palace gate when three guards blocked her path.

"And where do you think you are going to dress like that?" One of the guards demanded as he sized her from head to toe.

Curious to know why the guards would look at her with such lewd eyes, Joanna lowered her head and looked at herself.

It was after she glanced at her body that Joanna realised that she had been running around the entire King for hours in a bathrobe.

[Joanna Anderson, you are insane... You have lost your mind!]

Joanna wanted to bump her head against the wall but she held back. Instead, she readjusted the bathrobe so that it covered her cleavage properly.

"My clothes and other belongings are inside the palace and as you can see, I can't go home dressed like this. Kindly let me in, hmm," Joanna pleaded. She looked towards the palace gate hoping she would see Josephina, Chris or Gideon but that did not happen.

"If I didn't know better I would have assumed that the palace was a hotel because of your statement," the guard at her right-hand side murmured, his cold glares shot at Joanna's face.

Actually, changing into a dress wasn't that important since she could teleport home from there. The reason she desperately wanted to enter the palace was to confirm how Kayden was doing.

"Leave now. You will have none other than yourself to blame if you keep loitering around here," The second guard commanded and turned to leave but Joanna quickly reached her hands out and grabbed his hand.

"It's OK if you don't want to let me in but can you please tell me how His Majesty is faring?" Joanna asked out of desperation.

Despite seeing the man's deadly stares which were shot at her hands, she refused to let go of his hand.

"Get lost now. Don't make me repeat myself because you are not gonna like what is coming your way," The second guard retorted and shoved Joanna's hand away. 

As they approached the gate Joanna overheard their conversation even though they spoke in whispers.

"She looks suspicious. Why don't we lock her in the dungeons for questioning..."

"She looks like every ordinary girl out there. Through her scent, I could tell that she wasn't a vampire or werewolf so how could such a person pose a threat?" The second guard replied. He turned and stared at the lady whom he noticed hadn't moved away from the spot they left her.

"But..."

"Don't forget we were commanded to guard the gates and make sure not even an ant snuck into the palace. We can't afford to get distracted," He cut in, not letting his companion talk.

Although Joanna desperately wanted to check if Kayden was alright she knew she just couldn't barge in.

The palace wasn't a place anyone could just do as he or she pleased and that is why she had no choice but to leave.

When she reached Audrey's apartment she met Audrey at the door about to leave the house.

"Hey, why are you dressed like that?" Audrey asked the moment she saw Joanna at the door with only a bathrobe wrapped around her slender body.

"You..."

"Drey, where is Kyle? Is he inside the house?" Joanna asked and hurried into their apartment. She was so disappointed when she got to the sitting room and couldn't find Kyle there.

"Why are you searching for him? What exactly happened?" Audrey asked when she saw the disappointment on Joanna's face.

"Also, I called your line numerous times last night when you didn't return but there was no response. That has never happened before except when you are mad at me. Do you care to tell me why you ignored my calls and came home dressed like this?" Audrey asked a bit more seriously.

"I was in the palace last night," Joanna revealed and walked to the couch at the centre table and sat down like someone whose life was sucked out of her.

"What!" Audrey exclaimed, staring at Joanna in disbelief. It took her minutes to get over the shock.

lightsΝοvel "If you are coming back from the palace then why are you wearing only a bathrobe?" Audrey demanded as she sat beside Joanna.

"I know Kayden would never let you leave the palace dressed like that so were you chased out by the evil Queen Mother?" Audrey let her imagination run wild as she waited for Joanna's confirmation.

"No one chased me out. I ran after the one who attacked Kayden this morning and when I returned to the palace I was shut out by the guards at the gate?" Joanna explained. Because her reply was vague, Audrey didn't understand what she said.

"Someone attacked Kayden in the palace?" Audrey asked with widened eyes. 

"If someone attacked him then why did you chase after the assailant, what about the guards?" Audrey quizzed, confusion written all over the face. And with this, Joanna was left with no other option but to narrate what happened to Audrey.

In the course of listening to Joanna's narration, although Audrey had tons of questions to bombard her best friend with, she held back her curiosity, eagerly waiting for her to finish.

"Anna, your birthday wasn't today and Kayden is aware of this so why would he throw a birthday party for you?" Audrey asked as soon as Joanna completed her narration.
