Sinful Mates 1-3 novel Chapter 171

　　Ryland POV

　　Waking up during the night to the sounds of our daughter crying. I could just make out her cries coming from the main house. Thaddeus also hears it stirs before sitting up and rubbing his eyes. When we realise Orion was no longer in bed and his emotions were all over the place.

　　“I wonder what's up with him, he feels different, almost angry. '' Thaddeus says, getting up and grabbing some pants . I shrug climbing out of bed. I was so bloody tired but had to be up in a few hours anyway. Walking over to the drawer I go to give Evie a kiss only to realise she wasn’t in the armchair anymore.

　　“I don’t think it is Orion” I tell him realising it wasn’t Orion’s anger we could feel but Evelyn’s. Thaddeus looks over at me.

　　“She finally came back to her senses” Thaddeus says, a little shocked.

　　“Yeah but why didn’t she wake us?” I wonder. A little upset that she didn’t even tell us she was back. I could feel her burning anger through the bond red hot. Mara stops crying and I could hear Orion arguing with her outside, her voice finally carrying over to us now that my daughter had stopped crying.

　　Walking out of the studio, I maneuver around the cars in the shed and go outside. Orion was shirtless standing next to Tobias’s rose garden. Evelyn and him yelling at each other while Tobias watched on from the porch. I walk over to him, Thaddeus following behind me. The darkness stirring inside him at watching our mates fight was strong.

　　“What the fuck is going on?” Thaddeus says to them. Both Orion and Evelyn look at us. Orion lets out a breath and I could feel his relief upon seeing us. So whatever they were arguing over was getting him worked up to the point he was actually relieved to have us deal with her.

　　“Nothing!” Evelyn says walking back into the main house and past Tobias.

　　“Sorry Dad” I hear her mutter to him on her way past. I see Thaddeus follow her inside like a raging storm. Tobias hot on his heels. I walk over to Orion and he leans into me as I wrap my arms around him. “What’s going on?” I ask him.

　　“I have no idea, I realised she was up and came looking for her and she just started screaming at me. She woke up Mara which pissed me off so Tobias told us to get outside if we were going to fight” He says.

　　“Why is she angry?”

　　“Thinks we have just moved on with our lives, she woke up while we were fooling around” Orion says before I see the lights flicker that were illuminating the grass where we stood.

　　“Fuck!” I say as we both look at the house, we could hear Evelyn and Thaddeus screaming at each other. Tobias and Theo trying to calm them down while Mara I could hear had been woken up once again.

　　Walking inside I could hear them fighting in the kitchen.

　　“I will go get Mara” Orion says walking up the steps to where we could hear her crying.

　　I walk into the kitchen catching the tail end of their arguing.

　　“You don’t get to be angry Evelyn, you haven’t been here for a week instead being selfish ignoring all of us” Thaddeus yells at her.

　　“I wasn’t fucking ignoring any of you but clearly you have no problem ignoring me and leaving me in that state, so fuck you. Run back to your mates Thaddeus clearly I am not one of them” She screams tossing a plate at him.

　　Theo catches it before it hits Thaddeus.

　　“Enough, you have woken Mara for the second fucking time now, this shit needs to stop” Tobias says pinching the bridge of his nose.

　　“Everyone needs to calm down, no one is going to get anywhere while you are all worked up like this” Theo tells them, placing the plate back in the sink.

　　Thaddeus goes to snap back at his father when I grab his arm, he relaxes almost instantly at my touch looking at me. “That’s enough, just let it be” I tell him and his jaw clenches.
