Sinful Mates 1-3 novel Chapter 186

　　Orion POV

　　I spent the last hour and a half trying to get Mara to settle. All three of us tried before she eventually passed out from exhaustion, crying herself to sleep.

　　Walking down stairs I go to make some coffee. Thaddeus walking out into the kitchen comes over to me. His hands went to my hips as he pressed me against the counter from behind.

　　"Is she asleep?" He asks, kissing my bare shoulder.

　　"Yeah she has been acting strange lately, and having horrendous night terrors" I tell him.

　　"I know, I think it's everything that's been going on," he says, running his hands up my chest.

　　"Are you still mad at me?" He asks, pressing his face into my neck, I sigh relaxing against him.

　　"No, but you should have told me you were going to let her feed off you, I worry about her" I tell him and he nods.

　　"Yes and I worry about you too though, you know you can talk to us right?" I reach up, rubbing the side of his face on my shoulder. His skin is rough on my palm before he turns his face kissing my palm.

　　"I know but you have enough on your plate with having your magic back" I tell him though he hasn't had one outburst that has truly made me worry he was losing control.

　　"I won't lose control, I have control now" he says, invading my thoughts.

　　"How?" I wondered how this time is different, he never had control since I met him but this time was different he was different.

　　"Because nothing is worth losing our family, not even the darkness. You don't need to worry about me, losing control"

　　"So, you don't feel the urges?" I ask him.

　　"No I do, I just know where to focus that energy now" he says kissing my neck.

　　I turned around facing him, Thaddeus was different despite everything he was probably the most grounded out of us at the moment, the most rational. Even I have had my moments, yet he always saw through it, whereas before he would have exploded at the first hint of aggression towards him.

　　He kisses me and I kiss him back, his mouth moulding around mine perfectly before he pulls back running his nose across my neck and shoulder making me shiver. "Where's Ryland?" I ask when I hear his voice.

　　"Watching" he says and I look behind Thaddeus to see him leaning against the archway arms folded across his chest.

　　"Anyone heard from Evie?" I ask them and they both pull their phones from their pockets. Ryland shakes his head before Thaddeus suddenly growls softly in disapproval.

　　"What is it?" I ask and he shows me her message.

　　"I thought you told her to stay off main Street"

　　"I did" he says, trying to ring her but her phone goes to voicemail. Ryland tries but the same thing happens; it just rings out before going to voicemail.
