Fated to Them (book 1+2) novel Chapter 27

Read Fated to Them by Jessica Hall Chapter 27 – Just before my lunch break Cyrus comes out, he stops at my desk.

“You are going to pick Maya up soon?”

“Yes, I need to drop her to my mother, why what’s up?”

“I was wondering if I can come with you, I need to drop something off on that side of town” He asks.

“When do you want to leave?” I ask him and he smiles down at me.

“Whenever your ready”

“We can go now and pick Maya up on the way back” he nods, and I grab my bag. As I walk to the elevator with Cyrus, I notice Eli standing in his doorway leaning on the door frame watching us.

We hop in the car and I start heading to the address Cyrus gave me, pulling up at some post office. Cyrus gets out walking toward post office boxes, he unlocks one grabbing the mail out of it.

“You have your mail sent here?” I ask when he gets back in the car.

“Some of it, usually we have everything sent to the office, I just haven’t checked it for awhile so thought I would come with you, give me a chance to talk to you”

“About what?”

“Soya City” He says buckling in his belt.

“I told you I can’t go, how many times do I have to say that, and I didn’t appreciate you going behind my back and trying to use my mother to persuade me”

“I like your mother, she seems very what’s the words, current with the times”

“Current with the times?” I ask, shaking my head.

“Yes, she seems very open to a three-way relationship, also very open with our sexuality, it is quite refreshing” He says.

“Our relationship? You mean our non-relationship?” I tell him.

“Because you hated kissing me this morning” He states, and I feel my face heat.

“no, I don’t know what came over me. I probably had too much coffee, you made me flustered” I tell him, and he chuckles. I pull up at Maya’s school just as the bell rings, Cyrus gets out following me to the gate.

“You can deny it all you want, Addie, but you will agree eventually” Cyrus says.

“To Soya City, or being with you?” I ask before rolling my eyes at his cockiness.

“Both” he says, placing his hand on my hip and pulling me against him. I don’t bother removing his hand knowing it’s pointless, but I also like the feel of his hands on me, not that I would tell him that. Maya comes running out excitedly.

“MR Cyrus why are you here?” She asks looking up at him. He smiles down at her before holding out his hand which she actually takes as we walk back to the car.

“I came with Addie” He tells her, and she skips happily to the car and he buckles her into her seat before climbing in the car again. I drop Maya to my mother at the surgery before coming back out to the car and heading back to work.

“Maya seems to like you two,” I tell him.
