Fated to Them (book 1+2)

Chapter 56

Read Fated to Them by Jessica Hall Chapter 56 – “Do I need to dress for work, or dress casual?” I ask

Cyrus.

“Dress how you want, we don’t care what you where to work as long as you are covered”

“So you won’t care if I rock up to work in my pyjamas then?” I laugh.

“Nope, you get a pass since your f*****g your bosses” Cyrus says.

“I have slept with one of you, not both of you”

“You will, you belong to us Addie and I know you want to” Cyrus says with a sly smile on his lips. I

press my lips in a line, grabbing my jeans and a v-neck black shirt. I get dressed and I find Cyrus also

wearing jeans and a top. The combination looked almost normal on him besides his large muscular

frame, he almost looked human instead of some exotic g*d in his suits. Though I preferred him dressed

like this he looked more comfortable.

“P*****t” Eli says behind me coming out of the bathroom behind me. My cheeks heat and Cyrus smirks.

“At first I was upset. I couldn’t read your thoughts, but your body gives you away” Cyrus says, rubbing

the blush that spread to my face.

“Wait you can read thoughts”

“Yep, except yours and Eli’s”

“Why not ours?” I ask though I was also grateful.

“Don’t know I think it’s because you’re my mates, I assume it is way to level us out”

“That is part of the reason Eli hates human’s Addie, the chatter is hard for him to tune out”

“So you can read anyones thoughts?”

“If I chose to, though it’s hard not to sometimes when I am in a room full of people it can become

distracting, that and their scents also become overwhelming”

“So you want to drink their blood, it never goes away?”

“I have control of my urges but no it doesn’t go away. But being around you has made them less

appealing” He says as Eli walks out of the walk-in.

“How so?”

“Because he wants to feed on you, your scent trumps theirs” Eli answers for him making me look up at

Cyrus. His eyes flicker red, a smile on his lips.

“Like I said your scent is intoxicating, smells sweet now they smell bland to me”

“So you want to feed on me like you did Eli?”

“Yes, but that would also mean I may mark you”

“But it doesn’t hurt, you didn’t look in pain” I ask Eli.

“No, it doesn’t hurt because we are mates. If Cyrus bit anyone else it would though”

“Come we should have breakfast” Eli says unlocking the door.

I follow him downstairs, Eli grabs my hand rubbing circles on the back of my hand.

“Are you going to lock the door every night?” I ask him looking back at the bedroom door.

“Do I have to?” He asks, looking down at me as we walk down the steps. I shake my head.

“Then I won’t, but Addie I must warn you if you try to leave we will know. We can sense when our

mates are near, and can also sense when they are hiding something. I know you are so if you want to

come clean I suggest you do so”

“I’m not hiding anything” I tell him my mind going to the phone I hid.

“I can also feeI when you are lying, I don’t like liars Addie so whatever it is I suggest you own up to it

and be done with it” I shake my head. Would they become mad if they find it and I don’t tell them.

“If you aren’t lying, why are you scared right now?” Eli asks.

“I’m not scared” I tell him sitting at the bench.

Eli watches me, Cyrus walks over to me putting his chin on my shoulder. “Then what did you hide in the

spare bedroom?” He whispers.

“If you think I hid something, why not go get it then” I tell him.

“I know you did, but I would rather you own up to it and get it willingly” Cyrus says kissing my cheek

and walking toward the coffee jug.

“So what will it be, Addie? Do I have to go find what it is and punish you, or are you going to get it and

hand it over” Eli asks. I s*****w suddenly feeling ill.

“I promise if you give whatever it is to me, I won’t get mad” Eli says and I roll my eyes. They already

know I hid something so there was no point in arguing with them over it.

I hop off the stool and walk upstairs retrieving it from under the mattress. I look at and see a new

message from Sam, saying goodmorning and some kissy emoji.

I relock the screen and walk downstairs. Eli was at the counter and had made coffee and jam toast. He

holds his hand out expectantly. I drop the little black phone in it. He looks at it.

“Sam?”

“Yes Sam gave it to mum to give to me” Eli growls, putting it in his pocket. I turn to go to the otherside

of the counter when he grabs my wrist tugging me back. My heart skipped a beat. He said he wouldn’t

be mad. I gulp fear consuming me when he presses me against the counter, his hands slipping in my

hair as his thumbs rub the side of my face. He kisses me softly, pressing his body against mine, his

tongue slipping into my mouth as he kisses me. He pulls back.

“You don’t need to fear me, I said you wouldn’t be in trouble and you aren’t, just don’t hide things from

us Addie, we will find out” He whispers kissing my forehead. He steps back letting me go and I grab my

coffee off the bench, sipping it only to look over and find Cyrus smiling at us amused. I raise an

eyebrow at him and he looks away before biting into his toast. “Go sit with Cyrus,” Eli says, grabbing © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

the two plates with toast.

I walk over to the table and sit next to Cyrus who grabs my knee gently.
