Sinful Mates 1-3

I lay there completely exhausted. When I hear Thaddeus’ panicked voice making me sit up.

"See told ya, a bloody bread bag. You're too big for these things" I hear Ryland say.

My heart rate picks up, they are joking right?

"Maybe she won't notice,” Ryland says.

"Notice what?" I ask and they go quiet. Orion walks out.

"Please don't panic, the chances are low especially since it took a year before you fell pregnant the first time”

"What?" I squeak.

Sitting up, Thaddeus walks out with a pair of shorts on, along with Ryland, both of them staring at me nervously.

“It broke didn’t it?"

"It's not like I meant for it to happen" Thaddeus says

"This can't be happening" I say to myself when I feel the bed dip, hot tears running down my face and into my hair as I flop back on the bed.

Orion climbs on the bed straddling my hips. "What do you want to do?" He says, making me look at him.

"Don't cry, why are you crying?"

"Because he only has to sneeze in my direction and I get knocked up” I choke out.

"No!"

"Exactly, come on. You killed him and now you help dig him up" Thaddeus says looking at me.

"And you," Thaddeus says, pointing at Ryland. "I will deal with later"

"What? So she kills someone but I get punished for hiding it?"

"Yes, you should have told us"

"What about her?” Ryland says.

"Do you want her punished?" Thaddeus asks him.

“No, of course not," Ryland says.

"Good, because you're delivering his mail,” Thaddeus tells him.

"Come again?"

"You heard me"

"What is the point in that?” Ryland asks.

"There isn't one, I just wanna see you in a mailman's outfit" Thaddeus snorts before laughing.

Ryland shows us where he buried him. Only when we got there the body was gone, like he dug himself out.

"Shit, I gave him vampire blood to heal him" Orion says.

"Great, this just keeps getting better” Thaddeus says when we hear a scared whimper. We spin looking around for the sound.

Walking around the side of the shed, I see the mailman crouched on the ground.

"Please don't kill me, I didn't see anything I swear" the man begs. Thaddeus approaches him and he flinches.

"We won't hurt you, but you're going to have to come with me” Thaddeus says, offering his hand to him. The man hesitates before taking it, letting Thaddeus pull him to his feet. Thaddeus looks at his neck.

"Little lower Evie you would have marked him" Thaddeus says and I look away guiltily.

"Are you going to kill me?”

Thaddeus claps a hand on his shoulder. "Sorry to tell you buddy, but you're already dead” The man looks at him.

"Hey don't blame me, blame her" he says pointing to me.

"I'm so sorry, truly I am but my husband can help you" I tell him. The man looks confused. Ryland steps toward me and the man's eyes glaze over, turning crimson and he sniffs the air. Fangs protrude from his lips and he touches them before touching his face.

"What have you done to me?" he shrieks. Ryland moves but instinct to feed kicks in and he lunges at Ryland. Thaddeus' eyes turn black and he claps his hands, the noise deafening and the man drops to the ground clutching his head before he reaches Ryland. Orion grabs his arm and Thaddeus the other picking him up.

"You two inside and watch Mara while we take him to the council” Thaddeus says and I nod feeling terribly guilty.

“On the plus side he can't make me wear his outfit now” Ryland snickers, steering me toward the house.
