Sinful Mates 1-3 novel Chapter 195

　　Evelyn POV

　　When we got home, Thaddeus explained what he saw. Honestly it came as no surprise to me, I had been saying it all along that it wasn't an accident. I was shocked however to find out Laura had something to do with it.

　　I let them discuss it, I couldn't give a rat's ass what they had to say. I knew all along yet I was delusional in thinking it. Bianca though, I was worried about and when Amara came over frantically looking for Mara I nearly lost it.

　　Mara was already suffering with these dreams. I was not about to allow her to be used even by my family. Amara would have to wait and either do what Thaddeus did or let him do it and relay it to her. I wasn't having them tinkering and sifting through her memories, it was never a pleasant feeling when done to me so I wasn't about to allow it to happen to my daughter.

　　"I will be quick, in and out in two seconds Evelyn, she may not even notice" Amara argues with me.

　　"She will notice, believe me it's not a nice feeling, just wait till she falls asleep" I tell her stacking the dishes in the dishwasher.

　　"Just let her do it, Mara won't even know" Thaddeus says.

　　"No!" Says Orion for once on my side.

　　"My aunty is out there dying, all because you won't let me in her head" Amara yells at him.

　　"Bianca is not dying, she is simply desiccating. Awful but doesn't change anything, you aren't meddling in my daughter's head" I tell her.

　　When I turn around though she is gone.

　　"Where did she go?" I ask Orion only to see Thaddeus also gone. I listen for Mara and can hear her still in her room when I hear the floorboard creak. I rush upstairs and bust through her door. Amara hand outstretched about to touch her little head while she played with her dolly. I grab her hand, jerking it away.

　　"I said no!" I tell her and Mara looks up at me.

　　"Hi mummy" she says, before noticing Amara.

　　"Aunty Aunty" she squeals and Amara smiles at her before bending down. Thaddeus grips my arm before reefing me out of the room.

　　"You dare grab her like that, she is my fucking sister Evelyn"

　　"And she is my daughter," I growl back.

　　"Done" I hear Amara sing out and I spin around rushing back in but she is gone having misted out of the room. Mara appeared unharmed but it pissed me off, it's not good to meddle in people's heads, worse to do it to a child.

　　"See perfectly fine" Thaddeus says and I snap, shutting the door behind me as I step out before I pivot, slapping him. My hand burned from the contact with his face.

　　"You put her at risk, she could have got hurt you fucking prick" I scream at him.

　　"Amara would never hurt her Evelyn, not everyone is out to get our kids" he says grabbing my arm.

　　"She may not mean to but that doesn't mean it couldn't have happened, you put her at unnecessary risk when you only had to wait till she went to sleep"

　　"That would take hours we don't have" Thaddeus growls letting me go.

　　"Like the months you spent not believing me, were months we didn't have" I tell him before walking downstairs.

　　"She did it, didn't she?" Orion asks. I nod and he storms off up stairs no doubt to give Thaddeus a serving.

　　Walking into the kitchen Ryland was sitting at the table. "You okay?" I ask him.

　　"Yeah just over everything, and everyone" he says running both hands through his hair and resting his head in his hands.

　　"You could always come to work with me?"

　　"You're not seriously going, can't you stay home for once. All you do is work" Ryland says.

　　"I don't have a choice, Imogen isn't working today, and Laura well obviously she won't be working there again and I doubt she will show face even if she was allowed to come back" I tell him.

　　"Please just stay home, I don't need anymore stress today"

　　"Ryland you know I can't, I am meant to open in three hours"

　　"Yes Evelyn you do, you own the place, you set your own hours, just stay home please" he says looking up at me.

　　"Ryland?"

　　"You know what, never mind do whatever, you always choose work" he says getting up and knocking his chair over. He picks it up, shoving it back under the table.

　　"Fine I will stay," I tell him.

　　"Just go, you don't want to be here, so just go" he says walking past me. I grab his arm pulling him back and he shakes my arm off.

　　"I'm staying, what's got into you?"

　　"Nothing you never want to spend time with us, you know we haven't spent time as a family since the day of the accident, so please just for once stay with us"

　　"I said I would, I am staying okay just calm down" I tell him. He takes a deep breath in before gripping the hem of my shirt and pulling me to him. His arms wrap around me and he rests his chin on my head.

　　"Thank you," he says, kissing the top of my head. I try to stand on my tippy toes and kiss him but he pulls away smiling.

　　"What's wrong shorty can't reach?" He teases. I smack his chest and he laughs before leaning down so I can kiss him.

　　I wrap my arms around his neck when I feel him grip the backs of my thighs lifting me up and I wrap my legs around his waist and kiss him harder.

　　Rylands warm hands went underneath my shirt to my lower back pressing me closer to him.

　　His tongue brushes mine softly before he pulls back, sucking my bottom lip in his mouth before he lets go of it.

　　"I missed you, miss my old Evie" he says pressing his forehead against mine.

　　Hearing little feet running, Ryland puts me down and I turn to face the dining room door just in time to see Mara run in.

　　"We have a tea party in my house," she says, carrying her toy basket.

　　"I don't think mummy will fit" I tell her, following after her. I look at her cubby house door. My ass is definitely not squeezing through that door.

　　"If Orion can fit, you can," Ryland says, slapping my ass.

　　"Come in mummy, come in" she calls and I bend down assessing the door. I crawl in, turning sideways to squeeze through the gap. The door turned out to be the easy part, it was trying to figure out where to put my legs once I got in.

　　I played with Mara for a bit before I started to feel claustrophobic. Her cubby shrinking more and more the longer I stayed in there.
