Fated to Them (book 1+2) novel Chapter 44

Read Fated to Them by Jessica Hall Chapter 44 – I follow him upstairs to find Cyrus putting my clothes on the bed, I quickly snatch them up and get dressed. I had this strange feeling that whatever my sister was trying to tell me before was something important. I didn’t understand how she knew about them and I know Eli and Cyrus weren’t going around blurting out their secrets to just anyone, especially a d**g addict, no matter how crazy and erratic she could be.

“Are you dressed, your sister is downstairs? You can introduce her to Bella when we get to work she can work the front counter with her” Eli says and I nod. This seemed too simple, everything about what Cyrus did seemed too simple. Wouldn’t she go through withdrawals? Can him just telling her to stop really remove years of d**g abuse?

When we got to work I introduced Taylor to Bella quickly before Cyrus gripped my arm pulling me away toward the elevator. He presses the button and pushes me inside.

“Geez settle down, why are you in such a bad mood?” I ask, rubbing my arm where his grip was a little too tight and I could feel my arm bruising. Eli steps in the elevator pressing the button to our floor. When we get to the office I walk out heading toward my desk when Eli grabs my arm.

“No, you are working in my office where I can keep an eye on you”

“What why?” I ask, confused.

“You think I didn’t read your emails? I know that’s how you have been communicating with Sam” He says steering me toward his office. Cyrus brings in a chair and places it next to Eli’s chair. Eli pushes me down in it, the chair spinning slightly and nearly tips and I grab the edge of his desk before I tip backwards. Eli sits beside me and I dump my handbag on the floor beside me pissed off that he was making me sit in here like a naughty child. I felt like I was back in school and being made to sit at the teacher’s desk for misbehaving. Cyrus walks in dumping his Laptop in front of me.

“Here use this. I won’t be here for most of the day” He says and I open it turning it on.

“Where are you going?” I ask looking up at him.

“I may have erased your sister’s memories, but that won’t stop her body going into withdrawal. I am going to have some placebo pills made up with my blood in them, stop her withdrawals till everything is out of her system. Then I have to organise things for Soya we leave at the end of the week” He says before turning on his heel and walking out.

I look back at the laptop screen realising he never gave me the password.

“Do you know his password?” I ask Eli.

“It’s your birthday,” He says. I scrunch up my eyebrows before typing in 15/07/95 the computer screen unlocking and I find his screensaver is a picture of Eli sleeping. Eli looks over at it and snorts.

“S**t he still uses that photo” He says shaking his head. I login in to the workplace portal and go through my emails. I see around twenty emails from Sam. Eli notices them and grabs the laptop from me before I have a chance to even open one of them. He deletes them before blocking his email address from my inbox.

“Was that necessary Eli, Sam is my friend” I tell him, grabbing the laptop back off him.

“You will soon be marked by both of us Addie, until then I don’t want you talking to Sam”

“Why? I get he is a hunter but he was my friend first that isn’t going to change”

“Do you love him?” Eli asks, shocking me. His question actually made me think. Do I love Sam, I thought I did but now I am not so sure.

“Well until you figure that out and Cyrus has marked you, you are not speaking to him” Eli says turning back to his computer. I sit back in my chair.

“Why after Cyrus marks me?” I ask while removing the work documents sent through and filing them on Cyrus laptop.

“Because once he marks you the bond can’t be broken, even with Sam’s witch voodoo s**t. And you won’t want to be with him once you are marked. You won’t be able to think of any other man except us once the bond has formed. Right now you feel me but not Cyrus and the bond is getting stronger but won’t be complete till we have marked and mated you”

“I feel the same” I tell him reading through the document I just opened. Eli’s hand comes down on my knee and I raise an eyebrow at him pushing his hand off and continuing to read when he places his hand on my t***h, his hand moving underneath my skirt and I shiver, sparks rushing to my core and I slam my legs together, arousal flooding me.

“Yep you feel exactly the same, don’t you addie?” He says and I look at him.

“That’s because you’re touching me, other than that I feel the same Eli” I tell him and he turns my chair to face him. Using his foot he pushes my legs apart, my skirt riding up and I see his eyes flicker and I know he can see my lace panties. He leans forward, his hands running up my t****s and I feel his thumbs brush the lace fabric, his face only inches off mine a devious smile on his lips.

“Eli, stop we are at work” I tell him, his manly smell hitting me and I breath in deeply, Eli chuckles making me realise what I just did before his lips come crashing against my own. His warm lips moulding around mine as his tongue runs across my bottom lip wanting access and I grant it. His tongue fighting mine for dominance and I m**n into his mouth, his chest rumbling as he chuckles at my reaction to him. Eli grips my hips, ripping me onto his lap so I am straddling him.
