Sinful Mates 1-3 novel Chapter 133

　　Evelyn’s POV

　　Hanging up the phone, I go do some washing, hanging out the last piece on the clothesline when I feel cold hands touch my shoulders making me jump with fright.

　　“Geez, don’t sneak up on people” I turn around and tell Orion. He runs his hands down my arms before I bend down picking up the empty basket.

　　“What did you do today?” Orion asks as we are walking inside.

　　“Nothing much, washing, spoke to Lana” I tell him not realising Ryland and Thaddeus on the back porch listening.

　　“How did you speak to Lana, Evelyn?” Thaddeus growls out as I reach the top step. I roll my eyes at his angry tone only for him to grip my chin forcing me to look up at him. He presses his lips together.

　　“There is this thing called a phone, you know sends signals to a satellite in the sky allowing you to speak to people” I tell him, and he growls at my sarcasm.

　　Thaddeus grips my chin tighter, a little too tight making me smack his hand away from my face, pushing past him he grips my arm above my elbow. “Hand it over” he says holding his other hand out.

　　“No, Thaddeus I am not going to stop talking to her just because of April” I tell him ripping my arm away from him, only to be ripped backwards as he yanks me back with an arm around my waist pulling me against his chest. His voice deadly calm yet, I could feel his anger surging through the bond.

　　“I am not in the mood today to put up with your tantrums, now give me the phone.”

　　“Thaddeus leave her alone, she isn’t doing anything wrong,” Ryland tells him, stepping forward but Thaddeus refuses to let go instead starts rummaging through the pockets of my shorts until he finds it. He lets me go flicking through my phone before handing it back to me and I see he has deleted and blocked her number. I try to undo it, but it comes up I need to put in the password he added.

　　I hand it back to him and he takes it. “Keep it,” I tell him walking off pissed off with him.

　　“It’s for your own good, Evelyn,” Thaddeus tells me, and I ignore his words instead walking into the laundry and chucking the basket in the corner before walking upstairs and locking the door.

　　I don’t see what the problem is. Lana is fourteen and no threat to me. One thing I do know is, that none of them will take me to see her, so that leaves only option two. Find Thaddeus keys, but I feared his wrath if I went against him. Hearing a knock on the door before hearing Orion’s voice just as I lay down on the bed.

　　“It is only me.”

　　He says and I get up off the bed and unlock the door. Orion comes in shutting the door before laying on his back next to me. “He just worries about you” Orion states rolling on his side and propping his head up on his elbow.

　　“Doesn’t mean he can be jerk,” I tell him.

　　“He is just on edge; the magic is tainting him.”

　　“But he hasn’t been using it.” Orion brushes my hair behind my ear before kissing my forehead.

　　“He doesn’t have to, it’s the magic in general. Using it makes it worse. He feels destructive therefore wants to destroy things himself.”

　　“Did he destroy anything while you were gone?” I ask.

　　“No because he knows you would have heard about it on the news or radio, but he doesn’t know what to do with it but bottle it up, which will just make it worse” Orion tells me, and I look away and sigh. How the hell are you supposed to help someone that actually needs the destruction that gets him in trouble.

　　“Don’t think too much about it, Ryland and I will figure something out to help him” Orion says, and I nod.

　　“Did he kill anybody?” Orion shakes his head.

　　“No, but he needs to feed, his bloodlust is making him worse.”

　　“Fine then,” I tell him getting up.

　　“No, not you, Evelyn. Not when he is like this. Ryland is going to let him,” Orion says grabbing my arm.

　　“He can feed off Ryland?” I ask wondering how that works with him being Lycan.

　　“Ming goreng noddles.” He nods before grabbing them and filling a pot with some water. When they are done, I get up and start cutting the sachets of seasoning open while he drains the water out before mixing it through the noodles. He hands me bowl before giving Orion and Ryland theirs. I go and sit on Ryland’s lap stuffing my face while, Thaddeus picks at his and I can tell he isn’t very hungry after feeding on me.

　　Getting up I grab some milk, my tongue burning from the noodles. When I used to make them, I always left the chilly out now I remember why, I think to myself gulping down the glass.

　　“There not even spicy” Orion says.

　　“To me they are” I tell him, and he just shakes his head finishing the rest of his bowl. When we finished, I wash the bowls and Ryland walks out before coming back in with a pair of boots.

　　“Want to come hiking with me?” he asks.

　　“Hiking where?” I ask wondering where there was to hike beside the huge ass mountains surrounding the place.

　　“The mountains” he states confirming what I thought he was going to say. Looking out the kitchen window I look up at the mountain, it was covered in thick trees and so god damn high.

　　“That would take me all year to walk up,” I tell him, and he chuckles.

　　“Probably longer than that, shorty.”

　　“I am not short, you’re all just freakishly tall,” I tell them.

　　“Nope, you’re short,” Thaddeus tells me before walking over and placing his elbow on my head. I was only up to the middle of their chests.

　　“This is the average height; I will have you know. Not everyone can be giants,” I tell him pushing his arm off.

　　Ryland shrugs before reaching for me and pulling me over to him so I was standing between his legs and wrapping his arms around my waist then standing making my feet leave the ground.

　　“See short,” he says kissing the top of my head. I smack his chest before sliding down. Orion comes out with my joggers and I put them on before groaning when he pulls me to my feet. We head outside walking across the paddock towards the forest.
