Sinful Mates 1-3 novel Chapter 49

　　My body relaxing against his skin, I could hear Tobias keeping up behind us. Hear the noise of his paws on the ground. He surprisingly stayed so; Tobias could keep up. I knew Theo was a lot faster than Tobias, but this time Tobias was able to keep pace. I felt like he was running for hours when we suddenly stopped on the end of the driveway. I lifted my head and saw Tobias shake out his fur before rising completely naked. Theo let me go and I slid down his body onto my feet.

　　I could just make out the house lights from where we stood. Tobias walked over to me and grabbed my hand. I am actually glad that this place was so secluded, we definitely would have raised some eyebrows if someone drove past. Walking hand in hand with one naked man and another soaked in blood. I’m sure it definitely would have raised some questions.

　　We walked for about five minutes before one of them spoke.

　　“Did you leave because of me” Asked Theo.

　　I didn’t answer now thinking, leaving was definitely the wrong choice. I could feel that Theo honestly believed he was the cause of all this. Truthfully, he was and the way they needed to keep me hidden away. When we made it to the house, I stopped looking up at it. This place actually felt like home or maybe it was their feeling toward it. But it didn’t change the fact it was also my prison.

　　When I stopped, they did to?

　　“What is it?,” Tobias said looking at me.

　　“I don’t want to be trapped here again; I also don’t want to be forced to change.”

　　I heard Theo sigh. I could tell he didn’t agree could feel it, the same as Tobias but they never voiced that out loud.

　　“Are you going to keep me here?” I watched as they looked at each other.

　　“Please, Imogen can we just go inside? we can talk about it later I promise,” Theo said. He sounded tired despite the fact he never slept.

　　“Not until you answer. I am not going in there if I can’t live like a normal person, Theo” I said letting go of both their hands. I was surprised when I felt Tobias get angry, I expected it from Theo after the other day, but he seemed calm almost resigned with the fact, I won’t be held prisoner anymore. Like he accepted it but Tobias on the other hand, I felt burning anger ripple through me. Making me angry feeding off his emotion.

　　“Please don’t make me force you inside Imogen, not tonight I don’t want to argue about this” Before I could answer though, Theo shot him a look before turning to me.

　　“If we let you go back to work, will you stay” He asked. I nodded; I just didn’t want to remain cooped up in this house twenty-four seven. Tobias growled at Theo but held his tongue and didn’t argue back. I could tell that later this was going to turn into another argument between them.

　　After a few seconds of them glaring at each other, I walked between them and up the veranda stairs. I turned the handle and walked inside and collapsed on the lounge. I wasn’t there long before I was scooped up and taken to the downstairs bathroom. The bathroom was similar to the one upstairs only difference was the floor tiles were black not grey and it didn’t have a bath just one giant shower which was actually bigger than the one upstairs.

　　Theo started the shower, and I stripped my clothes off and stepped in. I noticed Tobias didn’t come in and could feel he was still angry.

　　“Don’t worry about him, he will calm down,” Theo said pulling me under the stream of water. The entire shower floor was red with blood, some even congealed in his hair and he had to wash his hair three times to get it all out. The steam in the bathroom made the entire room smell of blood and mud, making me gag. Theo reached up above his head and opened the window since the exhaust fan wasn’t doing much to rid the room of the pungent smell. Once he washed what he could see off, I grabbed the soap.

　　“Turn around” he did, and I ran the soap and loofah over his back, washing until he was no longer bloody. When I was done, I started washing myself, hissing every time the soap burned the grazes on my skin. When I washed my hair, I nearly jumped completely onto Theo.

　　“What is it?”

　　“I smacked my head on the door, when they ripped me out of the car” I told him. My head was burning. I touched it and there was huge lump. Theo pushed my hands away and examined it. “Yeah, ouch that looks painful, got a nice egg on your head and cut.”

　　“No shit, Sherlock,” I said sarcastically.

　　Tobias suddenly walked in a towel around his waist. He must have had a shower upstairs.

　　“What’s wrong. Are you hurt?” he demanded.
