Fated to Them (book 1+2) novel Chapter 31

Read Fated to Them by Jessica Hall Chapter 31 – The phone rings but he doesn’t pick up. It was late, maybe this could wait till tomorrow, yet I found myself driving in the direction of their office, trying to remember the address in which they lived. Giving up, I go to turn around and head home when my phone rings through the Bluetooth Cyrus’s number popping up on my stereo screen.

“Where are you?” I ask not even bothering to say hello. I needed answers and they were going to give them to me.

“At home, are you okay?” He asks and I could hear the concern in his voice before hearing Eli in the background.

“She alright?” He asks, his voice just a soft murmur in the background.

“We are on our way, Cyrus said when I hadn’t said anything.

“No, I will come to you. What’s your address?” I ask chewing on my nail while I wait on the side of the road.

“Everything okay Addie you sound upset?”

“I’m fine what’s your address” I tell them before there is a pause.

“470 Lang cliff Road, are you sure you are * I hang up not giving him a chance to finish instead hitting the highway, they lived just outside of town. I pull off the highway before driving onto a dirt road amongst the trees, what was with them living so secluded? Driving down the dirt road, I followed the twists and turns of the road before seeing a house in the distance, the lights were on and I pulled up on the long driveway to see them walk out onto the porch, now that I was here I was suddenly nervous. Sam’s words on repeat in my head, ask your bosses. Yet I only have partial memory and they weren’t part of it so how could they have the answers I was looking for.

I park the car Cyrus and Eli stepping onto the long veranda that wrapped around the entire house, they walk down the three steps, and my heart rate skips a beat when Eli opens my door.

“Why did you hang up on Cyrus?” He asked and I could tell that action had annoyed him more than it should.

“Phone cut out” I lied and he raised an eyebrow at my lie like he didn’t believe me.

“What’s wrong?” Cyrus asked and I know they thought it weird I sought them out instead of the other way around. Now faced with them right in front of me, I didn’t even know how to broach the topic.

“Why are you nervous?” Eli asked, cocking his head to the side, my eyes running down the length of his body and the hard lines of muscles, my mouth going dry as my stomach tightened, his body was just as gorgeous as Cyrus’ perfect though his had scars and lots of them yet they just made him look more perfect. I shake my head, tearing my eyes from him and looking at Cyrus who had a lazy smile on his lips at me checking out his husband.
