Sinful Mates 1-3 novel Chapter 98

　　Imogen’s POV

　　The week after went by quickly, our life got some routine about it. I felt like a weight had been lifted and we could finally relax and take a breath. I decided to keep my magic, at least for now, until I know for sure that the drama with Bianca was over. Theo and Tobias agreed said if I gave it up, I might regret it and considering it was the last thing I had left of my mother. I didn’t want to throw it away without good reason.

　　Josiah said Bianca has been suffering for her crimes, and he himself had taken pleasure in torturing her. Caroline had been banned from the council after she snuck in and removed Bianca fingernails without permission and tried to gouge out her eyes. I felt nothing towards Bianca, no anger, no hate, no pity. I felt free of her, although I am not naïve enough to believe I won’t have to deal with her again. My father came over after three days and met Thaddeus.

　　Things were awkward, but I had hope that we could build a relationship as long as Theo and Tobias could refrain from killing him. Mostly the future looked bright. Tobias and Theo went back to work full time, and I decided I would work a few odd days when I felt like bringing Thaddeus in with me. Life was looking pretty mundane compared to what it was.

　　Moving on, though from everything was a little harder now I had time to think. I often found myself thinking of all the things my mother has missed and all the things I had missed with my father. My moods sometimes plummeting, Tobias and Theo were always there though to lean on when the darkness would send me into my depression. Pulling me back from the brink and reminding me they will always be here for me.

　　Walking downstairs, Theo was feeding Thaddeus in his highchair. Thaddeus loved porridge now and was his new favourite thing to not only eat but play with. Tobias walks over and kisses me softly while I finish buttoning my blouse. I was going in with them today excited to be going back, today was the second day I had returned to work and the shambles the place was in when I went back the first day, had me nearly hyperventilating when I saw the mountain load of paperwork that needed filing. Merida was excited to see she could go back to the tech floor as one thing she hated was filing and being Theo’s coffee bitch.

　　Sitting at the island bench, I sipped my coffee, watching Theo feed our son. Thaddeus squealed loudly, and I noticed my bracelet react to him. His magical pendant glowing brightly from his excitement.

　　My heart skipped a beat for a second, and I filed it away to worry about another time.

　　“Mum wants to know if she can take Thaddeus tonight?” Tobias asks me. He wiggles his eyebrows and I know what he is thinking. Theo looking up and he smiles brightly. I smile knowingly back at them.

　　“Tell her she can” Theo punches the air like he just won some victory and Tobias comes over and wraps his arms around my shoulders, standing behind me. His stubble brushing my cheek and I cringe at the feel and he chuckles before rubbing his face in the crook of my neck.

　　“Stop you man beast” I tell him, cringing at the feel. Tobias chuckles before turning me around on the stool and moving between my legs. He kisses me softly at first before he deepens the kiss and groans into my mouth. He leans into me before I feel his hand move under my blouse and he squeezes my nipple between his fingers. I moan into his mouth before Theo speaks.

　　“Oi keep it PG13 a baby is present,” he says. I look back and he has his hand over Thaddeus’s eyes. I roll mine at him. It is not like he understands or will remember.
