Sinful Mates 1-3 novel Chapter 180

　　Waking the next morning I get up, quickly showering and getting changed into my jeans and polo shirt. Throwing my hair up into a bun while I walk down the stairs trying to remember where I put my shoes. Finding them by the door I quickly slip them on and walk into the dining room to Mara having a full on meltdown as she chucked her cereal at Ryland crying hysterically over something.

　　"Mara you don't throw things" Ryland scolds picking up her bowl that had splattered on the floorboards. His shirt was covered in cornflakes where it had got on him.

　　"Why did you do that?" I asked her but she was far gone screaming and not paying attention to anyone. The lights suddenly turn on and start flickering, the kettle and oven light turning on as all the power suddenly starts to surge.

　　"Mara stop baby, calm down I will go get it" Ryland tries to sooth as he picks her up off the chair. Her face was blotchy as she heaved with her sobs.

　　"Amara That is enough" Thaddeus tells her as he walks in, A washing basket in his hands. His shirt sleeves rolled up and I could feel his annoyance as she continued to scream the place down.

　　Ryland rocked her as he tried to calm her.

　　The light bulbs suddenly start bursting, raining glass down above us, the fire alarms start blaring loudly. I cover my ears trying to shield them from the deafening noise. I had never seen her like this, and I had no idea what to do about it. Thaddeus growls loudly before walking toward her, he touches her arm grabbing her attention and he eyes flew open looking at him.

　　"Enough!" I hear him say just audible to my ears over the blaring fire alarms. The house suddenly goes quiet as she stares up at him. I hear a car pull up outside.

　　"What did you do?" I ask him as Mara stares at him funny before popping her lip out and pouting.

　　"I absorbed it," he answers.

　　"Her magic?"

　　"No her anger" he says before brushing her cheek with his thumb. It was strange seeing him do magic before it tainted him badly but now watching him he seemed almost calm despite the darkness I could feel simmering at the edges, trying to find a way in.

　　"I have control love, I would never hurt her," he says, answering my thoughts.

　　"Can you go grab that bloody book from the car, the one with the sheep" Ryland says.

　　"Which car?" I ask just as Orion walks in with a bottle of milk.

　　"Mine" Ryland says.
