Read Fated to Them by Jessica Hall Chapter 31 – The phone rings but he doesn’t pick up. It was late,
maybe this could wait till tomorrow, yet I found myself driving in the direction of their office, trying to
remember the address in which they lived. Giving up, I go to turn around and head home when my
phone rings through the Bluetooth Cyrus’s number popping up on my stereo screen.
“Where are you?” I ask not even bothering to say hello. I needed answers and they were going to give Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
them to me.
“At home, are you okay?” He asks and I could hear the concern in his voice before hearing Eli in the
background.
“She alright?” He asks, his voice just a soft murmur in the background.
“We are on our way, Cyrus said when I hadn’t said anything.
“No, I will come to you. What’s your address?” I ask chewing on my nail while I wait on the side of the
road.
“Everything okay Addie you sound upset?”
“I’m fine what’s your address” I tell them before there is a pause.
“470 Lang cliff Road, are you sure you are * I hang up not giving him a chance to finish instead hitting
the highway, they lived just outside of town. I pull off the highway before driving onto a dirt road
amongst the trees, what was with them living so secluded? Driving down the dirt road, I followed the
twists and turns of the road before seeing a house in the distance, the lights were on and I pulled up on
the long driveway to see them walk out onto the porch, now that I was here I was suddenly nervous.
Sam’s words on repeat in my head, ask your bosses. Yet I only have partial memory and they weren’t
part of it so how could they have the answers I was looking for.
I park the car Cyrus and Eli stepping onto the long veranda that wrapped around the entire house, they
walk down the three steps, and my heart rate skips a beat when Eli opens my door.
“Why did you hang up on Cyrus?” He asked and I could tell that action had annoyed him more than it
should.
“Phone cut out” I lied and he raised an eyebrow at my lie like he didn’t believe me.
“What’s wrong?” Cyrus asked and I know they thought it weird I sought them out instead of the other
way around. Now faced with them right in front of me, I didn’t even know how to broach the topic.
“Why are you nervous?” Eli asked, cocking his head to the side, my eyes running down the length of
his body and the hard lines of muscles, my mouth going dry as my stomach tightened, his body was
just as gorgeous as Cyrus’ perfect though his had scars and lots of them yet they just made him look
more perfect. I shake my head, tearing my eyes from him and looking at Cyrus who had a lazy smile on
his lips at me checking out his husband.
“I—I um” I couldn’t form a coherent thought now my words were becoming muddled, I was going to
look insane like what exactly am I accusing them of? I didn’t even know myself what I wanted to ask
but when Cyrus reached for me. I stepped back, my heart hammering in my chest and I watched
horrified as his eyes flickered oddly under the lights. My stomach in knots as fear wrapped over me .
consuming me, how had I never really noticed how strange that was, I always put their changing eyes
down to poor lighting.
“I should go, I shouldn’t have come here” I tell them turning back to my car and reaching for the handle
when I felt his warm chest press against my back, I gulped fear paralysing me as I stood frozen with my
hand on the door handle.
“Now why would you want to do that?” Eli asked, his breath fanning the side of my neck before he runs
his nose from ear to the crook of my neck, I shiver my hands trembling slightly.
His arm snaking around my waist pulling me closer.
“You came here for a reason and now I want to hear what it is” He says his hand moving under my top
and brushing against my stomach. I gaps as sparks rush everywhere his hand moves my skin igniting
in the pleasurable feel of his hands on my body, yet that didn’t make me fear them any less, something
in my gut telling me something was seriously off.
“I spoke to Sam” I whispered so low I didn’t think they heard me. Eli steps back his hands leaving my
body and I turn around facing them.
“And what did Sam have to say?” Cyrus asked, stepping closer and I flinch away from the venom in his
words.
“That you did something, that you were there” S**t I had no idea what I was asking but by the look on
their faces they knew something, though I didn’t understand their distaste and anger they held for Sam,
it made no sense to me, I knew they liked me they made that extremely clear but their possessiveness
made me squirm.
Cyrus looked to Eli before muttering something under his breath too low for me to hear.
“We will explain when we get to Soya City” Eli says. I shake my head. I have no intentions of leaving
with them when they go.
“I’m not going to Soya City with you, one of you did something, one of you bit me, I want to know what
happened, why Sam won’t talk to me anymore” I tell them.
“You are because you don’t have a choice and secondly Eli didn’t bite you, he marked you, there is
difference”
“If it involves teeth, it’s biting” I spit back sarcastically.
“No Addie there is a very big difference one we can’t explain right now, so come inside”
“I am not going anywhere with you” I tell them, turning back to my car when I find my feet leave the
ground as arms wrapped around my waist tugging me back. I scream thrashing around trying to
escape them, every cell in my body telling me to run. I never should have come here, I thought to
myself.
