Fated To The Alpha novel Chapter 274

Chapter 274 Marabella POV

When we returned home , Kyan was in a strange mood , and I knew it was because Eziah was in the City . Walking into the manor , I could hear the vacuum going upstairs , and Jonah sighed , taking the groceries Kyan asked us to grab on the way home to the kitchen . Carrying the duffle bag , I start walking up the steps to the second floor . Lucas’s bedroom door was open , and I could see an extension cord running from the power outlet in the hall leading into Lucas’s old room .

Taking the duffle bag to the bedroom . I placed it on the bed , knowing there was no point and putting anything away because Kyan would just wait for us to sleep before undoing everything I folded or hung up , only to redo it or hang them a particular way . So I decided to wait for him and help him . Hearing the vacuum cut out , I wander back down the hall and over to Lucas’s room . Stopping at the door , I find Kyan cleaning the room .

The bed was freshly made , and I could smell the furniture polish . The old dusty curtains had been replaced , yet the old furniture that Kyan despised so much was polished to look brand new . All of Lucas ‘ knick – knacks are set back in their original places . And Kyan was now cleaning the window tracks with a microfiber cloth .

Even while cleaning , he was in pristine condition , with not a speck of dust on him , yet he looked different with his white button – up shirt , the sleeves rolled t o his elbows . So odd seeing a man of his status doing ordinary , mundane tasks like cleaning window tracks . I knocked , not wanting to enter Lucas’s room while he was upset .

I had been in here plenty of times when Lucas was alive . Lucas was very proud of his baseball card collection and liked to show me them and his comic books that sat in their plastic wrappers , never opened . It made me wonder which was Dominic’s room . I knew it wasn’t on this floor , and there were two more floors . Maybe I could ask Kaif later if he comes forward . If not , I might have to explore a bit . Kyan never minded when I looked around , although I never went to the upper floors unless I

went to the Seance room . Kyan looks over his shoulder at me and pulls his latex gloves from his hands . He drops them in his little rubbish bin . ” You’re home , finally . I was becoming bored . Where is Jonah ? ” he asks , walking over to me . He grips the front of my shirt , pulling me into the room and kissing me briefly . ” Are you alright ?

” I ask him worriedly . The emotions through our bond were all over the place . ” Fine , where is Jonah ? ” he asks , glancing over my shoulder . ” Putting groceries away , ” I tell him , and h e nods before rushing around the room , picking up his cleaning supplies , and I grab the vacuum , unplugging the cord and packing it back in the storage closet in the hall . Kyan steps out of the room behind m e before I see him lock the door with a key before pocketing it .

” Did you have fun with your brother ? ” he asks though I know he was only asking . not to be rude . He didn’t care to hear about what Eziah and I got up to . ” Yes , it was good to see him , ” I tell him ,

and he nods while I follow him downstairs to the kitchen . Jonah was still putting groceries away , removing everything from the packets and placing them in their designated containers . It was bizarre seeing how close they were , they were best friends , more like brothers , yet Jonah never complains about how set in his ways Kyan is and did things Kyan’s way despite it being time consuming . Seeing him like that made me wonder if it would come naturally to me after a few years .

Jonah didn’t even seem to think about it . Whereas I would have just stuffed the boxes in the pantry , Jonah took the time to remove them from their packaging and place everything in their designated , labeled containers . ” I broke the pasta jar lid . You didn’t have a spare lid , but I found this one , ” Jonah tells him . Kyan visibly tensed , and I knew his OCD was running rampant today .

” I never labeled it . Figured I would leave the label for you , ” Jonah tells him , which surprised me further that Jonah knew that would be what Kyan would worry about . Kyan sighs and his shoulders relax as he takes the labeling device from the drawer and grabs the tall jar from the counter . Jonah gives me a look of worry as he watches Kyan try to get the label on straight .

Kyan’s hands shook in frustration , and I chewed my lip , wanting to help him but not sure if I should touch him . ” Kyan ? Are you alright ? ” Jonah asks , but Kyan appears to be absorbed in the task as he mutters under his breath . Jonah , however , nods toward him , and I move , coming up behind Kyan and wrapping my arms around his waist .

He stiffens before relaxing and lets out a breath . His hands stop shaking , and he finally gets the label on straight . I rest my cheek against his back and look a t Jonah . His worry for our mate was clearly etched into his face , and I think Eziah seemed to trigger something in him because he was okay before finding out 1 was with Eziah . It made me realize I made the right decision about not telling him about Dominic .

I couldn’t bear to see him get his hopes u p , only for them to crash down on him if I am wrong , no matter how strongly i believe I am right . *** The night went by quickly . We did little , just sat around watching TV while Kyan read over work documents , and it took hours for Jonah to convince him to come t o bed . However ,

I finally noticed the bed was different once back in the room . How I missed it earlier was beyond me . I had been in here multiple times during the night , and not once did I realize the bed was bigger , the same bed , but bigger . Only noticing when I suddenly wasn’t squashed between them both . Kyan fell asleep instantly , while Jonah actually had trouble sleeping . He tossed and turned all night but eventually fell asleep , much to my relief . I wanted to see i f I could find Dominic’s room and knew Kyan would ask questions if he caught me looking around .
