Semua Bab Fated Mate: Bab 51 - Bab 60

“Mi amor, you called me, otherwise you wouldn’t have known I was here.” He had his cool matter-of-fact tone. It annoyed her even more.A smile crept on her face, she hadn’t heard that phrase for a while, and it touched her more now than it ever did before. She’d missed it and that silly tone he used when he talked to her like a child. She’d missed everything about him, him annoying and wonderful.“Okay, mister smarty pants, see you in—” A loud bang startled her, she dropped the phone and it shattered when it hit the ground.She turned toward the noise, the door was on the floor and Sabrina stood on top of it. Ann and Maria were on their feet staring at her, frozen by shock. Sabrina stepped off the door and looked around the room. When she spotted Lee at the window she turned and faced her, her face lit up, her face curved in a smile. She looked happy, not happy joy, but happy wicked

“Joe, we need to do something.” Maria was on the couch with Lee’s head on her lap. They immediately left for Florida after Sabrina’s attack. Ash had spent days watching Lee hoping she would wake up but scared she wouldn’t. When he couldn’t take it anymore he drowned himself in liquor and left Maria and Ann to look after her.“I don’t know what to do.” He crouched down by the couch next to Maria. He wanted to touch her but she was still jumpy. They hadn’t told them what they really were, but Maria had some idea with an image to back it up and she was scared.“Why not take her to the hospital?” Ann was down next to Joe holding Lee’s hand.“We can’t do that. We can’t risk humans knowing of our existence.” Billy stood over Ann his hands crossed over his chest.Ann stood up with a questioning look on her face. “You are worried about coming out of the closet?”“People are going to get killed if they so much as get an inkling of what we are, of what she is.”Maria moved from under Lee, placi

Joe turned, he gave her a smile, and then he looked up at Billy, the look in his eyes lethal. Billy backed down, relaxing his stance, but still kept an eye on Lee. Joe had noticed their silent cold war. She turned to face her sisters, pretending not to have seen their quiet exchange. She placed her elbow on the table and put her chin in her palm. She wanted to look at ease but she was still ready for anything—just as Billy was.“Don’t you want to take a shower first before you eat? You’ll feel more comfortable.” Ann spoke, oblivious of the tension in the kitchen.“I don’t think my stomach will be willing to wait that long. I can do that when we get home.”Billy moved, she dropped her hand and placed it on the table. Her eyes shot at him, meeting his fidgety eyes. The tips of her fingers were already curling inwards. He stiffened then paused. They held each other’s gaze, both waiting for each other to jump.

She felt a sharp pain in her inner lip, and then she could taste fresh blood on her tongue. Ash flicked his tongue on the spot, and then he sucked deeply. It hurt but she didn’t move neither did she stop him. He was hungry and for some insane reason she didn’t mind him feeding off her.She heard Billy and Joe hiss behind her. She opened the hand behind her back, cautioning them not to come near them. A deep angry growl rocked the room. It startled everyone, even Ash. That had to be Billy.Ash pulled away, for a moment she saw his eyes flash golden yellow and his face had desire all over it then they were back to brown and he had disgust in his face. “I’m so sorry.” He pulled at her legs, trying to unwind them around his waist but she only tightened the lock.“Stop that. I was just stuffing myself with some steak, would you like some? There is only one left.” Her lips throbbed. She passed her tongue over the long cut he h

“Guys, breakfast is ready!” Martha shouted from the bottom of the steps. Her husband, Dave, walked into the kitchen holding Alice and placed her in her chair before he took his seat at the table. “I’m going to count to three. One, two…” Dave chuckled when two doors slammed shut as Jayson and Merilee came racing down the steps. He always wondered what would come after two, but Martha always got them to do what she wanted before she reached the dreaded three. Dave looked around the table at his family and smiled. They were a close nit African family. He and Martha had gotten married young and moved to America when Dave got a job immediately after he finished varsity. They were happy and had three beautiful children to show for it. Jayson ten, Merilee five, and Alice had just turned three. They had made it a point to have their meals together. Dave worked round the clock to pay off the house loan. The extra hours and the normal workload kept him very busy and left little time to spen
