Sinful Mates 1-3

chapter 217

Amara POV

One week Later.

“This traffic is bullshit” I shrieked on my way to work. Dad wanted to retire and asked me to help

Ryland run things at work and was showing me the ropes.

“Calm down love,” Emery tells me. I have been on edge for the last week, no matter where we

looked she was gone, we had no name nothing to go by and my visions were not helping because she

is my mate and was immune to me. I let out a breath trying to calm myself and finally traffic started

moving again. I honk my horn when it suddenly breaks again making us come to a stop. It took us thirty

minutes in traffic to get to the office. Pulling into the underground carpark I wait for the boomgate to lift

when I am thrown forward in my seat before hearing the sound of metal on metal.

“What the fuck” I scream annoyed that someone just rear ended me. I pull into the parking lot and

park before getting out in my raging glory to kill the bastard that smashed into me.

“I am so sorry, I hit the wrong pedal, I have insurance” Comes a frantic voice I never thought I

would hear again. Emery climbs out of the car also irritated, the girl rummaging through her bag looking

for her wallet.

I look at the back of Mercedes, the boot all crumpled when I get a whiff of her blood. Looking her

over I see a cut across her forehead. She hit us pretty hard considering we were standing still and my

back end of my car was destroyed. I fight the urge rolling over me wanting to feed on her, ah she smelt

devine enticing all my senses.

“Ma’am?” I hear her voice snapping me back to my surroundings.

“Um yes” I ask, trying to make sense of what is going on.

“My ID, I should call a tow truck” She says looking at her watch before looking up at my fathers

building doors.

“Don’t worry about it, it's just a scratch” Emery tells her and she looks at him like he just grew two

heads before pointing to the back of the car.

“That’s more than a scratch, I promise I have my insurance card here somewhere” She says

rummaging through her wallet.

I looked at my poor car, it was going to be a ride off, she definitely bent the chassis. She handed

me her ID and I was excited to learn this woman’s name. “Seriously don’t worry about, Mia” I tell her

with my eyes glancing at her ID. I smile at her and she glances at her watch on her wrist completely

oblivious to me and Emery trying our hardest not to claim her and drag her away with us.

“You have somewhere to be?” I ask her and she glances at me nervously.

“It's fine I am already late, we will get this sorted first and maybe they will be ok with me being late

once I explain I ruined your car, do you work here?” She asks, looking at the building doors leading into

the foyer.

“Kind of” I tell her not wanting to tell her my father owns it, she would probably freak the hell out.

“I haven't seen you here before though” I tell her and she shakes her head.

“No, I am here for an interview which was supposed to start 15 minutes ago” She says with a sigh

glancing at her watch.

“Tech floor?” I ask her and she shakes her head.

“No, secretarial position for” She rummaged through her bag before pulling out a card. “Mr Madden

and Mr Kane” She says, looking at the card and squinting a bit.

“Sorry, I should have brought my glasses, apparently they are retiring and their secretary quit and

new owners are taking over, the recruitment place sent me over” She says with a sigh before she looks

at me, she scrutinizes my face for a second before realisation dawns on her.

“You’re the lady from the grocer, I am so sorry about my nephew, did you manage to get the

chocolate off them” She asks and I could practically see the cogs turning in that pretty head of hers.

“Yes” I lied, I had to chuck them out, nothing was getting those stains out. Emery chuckles at my

lie and her attention goes to him, her eyes roaming up and down him before she turns back to me.

“Well the car can wait, let's get you to your job interview” I tell her, draping my arm over her

shoulder and tugging her toward the doors.

“I highly doubt they will even look at my application now, I am 20 minutes late and counting” She

mumbles. Emery grabs her handbag from her draping it over his shoulder before looping his arm

through hers.

“Stranger things have happened, besides Amara knows the boss pretty well” Emery tells her and I

try to stop the devious smile threatening to upturn my lips. Dad wants to retire. I am suddenly all for it

now, shit I will even come in on weekends just so I can be near her.

“Are you sure?” She says looking nervously back at my ruined car. Emery pushes the door open

before hitting the button on the elevator.

“I am so sorry I hit you, and my nephew ruined your pants, what are the chances I ruin your day

twice” She chuckles. Little did she know she just made mine and Emmery’s day, because we found her,

we found our mate.

“Nope my day just got even better” Emery chuckles. She looks at him like he is absurd.

“I ruined your car” She says, her face heating with embarrassment.

“Car can be replaced” I tell her before grabbing a tissue and dabbing at the cut on her forehead.

She hisses before touching it with her fingers and pulling her hand back.

“Great, about to have an interview with a vampire and I am bleeding” She says, “Poor form” I hear

her mutter as she looks at her shoulder before looking at Emery who had her bag. I don't think she

realised he had it when she suddenly stepped away from us looking at us and only just realising we

both had our hands on her.

“Can I have my bag please?” She says and I could hear her heart beating frantically in her chest.

“Oh right sorry” He says handing it to her. She grabs a small compact mirror out before cleaning up

the cut and dabbing foundation on it.

“We will show you where to go, I will speak to the bosses for you” I tell her and she nods anxiously

before stepping away and I didn’t even realise I had stepped closer to her. She stands facing us next to

the doors and I suddenly realise our closeness was creeping her out. She hops from one foot to the

other and I could see Emery’s hands twitching, wanting to touch her just like mine were. The door bings

and she jumps slightly.

The elevator doors opened onto my fathers office floors. Ryland was looking at the foyer desk

trying to find something. The last secretary left everything in shambles.

Ryland turns around when he hears the door.

“You're late” He says to me and I quickly step forward before she thinks he is talking to her.

“Car accident” I tell him and he nods looking back at the desk before his head whips back to me.

“Car accident?”

“Yes, Theo in his office?” I ask him and he scrunches his face at my words before nodding.

I grab her hand and she gasps, jerking her hand away looking at it oddly before I grab it again,

loving the sparks rushing up my arm. I drag her to my fathers office and see both of them looking at

paperwork on their desks.

“Hey sweetie” My father says coming over to me and stopping when he sees me pull Mia in behind

me.

“Sweetie?” She questions. I ignored her question, she would find out any minute.

“Found your new secretary” I tell them before pulling out the chair at the desk. I push her down in it

and my father raises an eyebrow at me.

Tobias POV

“Where the hell is Amara?” I ask Theo, annoyed. She was always late.

“She will be here, I am more concerned with this secretary situation. No one is even applying for

the job not wanting to work under a tribrid and a werewolf” Theo tells me. I nod he was right, the city

was scared since Thaddeus and we organised a recruitment office to hire someone but even this new

person was a no show.

“Don’t, Imogen won’t, why would we retire and her go back to work, forget about it” Theo tells me.

We may not have a choice though, especially if Amara couldn’t pull herself together and actually start

showing up. Ryland can’t run this place on his own and Thaddeus was out of the question at the

moment.

“Stress less, we will figure it out” Theo tells me, coming over and resting his chin on my shoulder,

his lips pressing to my cheek, I exhale trying to calm my nerves but I was tired, I needed a break and

that wasn’t going to happen at this rate.

Hearing the elevator bing, Theo stands up. “That would be Amara,” He says when the door

suddenly opens.

“Hey sweetie” He says going to give her a hug before she tugs some girl in with her. The poor

thing looked petrified.

“Sweetie?” The girl questions looking at Amara. Who seemed to be ecstatic about something as

she pulled out a chair and shoved the girl in it.

“Found your new secretary” She says and the girl looks up at her. Emery comes in sitting on the

armchair in the corner of the room. I gave him a nod, at least he was getting Amara to show up, I will

give him that.

Theo was observing the girl who looked like a deer in headlights, his eyes flickering oddly before I

picked up the faint scent of blood.

“This is the girl from the recruitment” Amara says while we all just stare at her. She seems to snap

out of whatever trance she was in, shaking her head and holding her hand out to me.

“I’m sorry I am late, I accidentally hit” She stops and looks at Amara.

“Sorry, what is your name again?” She asks.

“Amara, and that is Emery” She says pointing to him. He gives her a wave. She shivers looking

back at me.

“This is Mia, and you are hiring her” Amara tells me and I fold my arms across my chest. Looking

down at my daughter while the small blonde haired girl looks like she was hoping the floor would

swallow her, her cheeks flushing red.

“Have you got your resume?” I ask her, she seems to think for a second.

“Ah yes sorry, it is um” She pulls it out before i could even grab it, Amara snatches it from her

hand.

“Yep good enough for me” Amara announces while the girl was trying to figure out what the hell

was going on, so was I. Theo chuckles, shaking his head making me raise an eyebrow at him.

“I’m sorry, I have been saying that a lot today but who are you?” The girl asks, looking at Amara

clearly startled with the way Amara was just handing her the job that wasn’t hers to hand out.

“We are her fathers” I tell this Mia before recognition hits her. Her lips parting in shock.

“Wait, your?” She says trying to find the right words.

“Tribrid, yes. My father Tobias, is a werewolf, my other father Theo vampire and Emery also a

werewolf” She says staring down at the girls resume.

“Is that a problem?” I ask her and she shakes her head.

“No, not like you will eat me…. you don't eat people right?” She chuckles nervously. Amara smiles

at her and her heart skips a beat.

“No we don’t eat people, I won't bite” Theo tells her yet Amara looked like she would any second.

“Resume?” I ask, holding my hand out to Amara wanting to see if the girl is actually qualified.

“I noticed you didn’t list your sexual preference or species preference?” Amara asked and Theo

had to hide his chuckle.

“Sexual preference?” The girl asks, staring at me Amara, no she can’t be? I thought to myself

finally putting the pieces together and Amara's weird behaviour.

“Yes, do you like men or women, or both?” Amara asks, we are so screwed we are going to be

sued.

“You don’t need to answer that?” I tell Mia glaring at my daughter.

“I would prefer if she did?” Amara glares back at me. I pinch the bridge of my nose.

“What about species?” Amara asks her, the girl looks at her rather flustered.

“Amara?” Theo growls at her.

“Nevermind my daughter” He tells the girl before plucking the resume from her fingers and

glancing at it before handing it to me.

“The recruitment office said you were both retiring?” Mia asks as I glance at her resume. Poor girl

was only 22, Amara was going to be too much for her to handle.

“Yes, Amara is taking over for us” I answer her and the girl looks at her.

“Wait, you want to hire me even though I rid off your car?” She asks, confused.

“She rode off your car?” Theo asks.

“It was just a scratch,” Amara tells her when Mia shakes her head.

“No, it is definitely more than a scratch,” She says.

“Enough of that, so you are hiring her?” Amara asks, looking at me.

“Please please please, daddy” Amara says, her voice booming in my head.

“Daddy?” I ask her, she hasn’t called me daddy since she was a child.

“Please, pretty please with a cherry on top” She says and I roll my eyes at her.

“Yes, when can you start?” I ask Mia.

“When would you like me too?”

“Now” Amara blurts, making Theo chuckle, she doesn’t get a chance to answer when suddenly the

door bursts open and Ryland steps into the room.

“Gotta go, Evie is in labour” He gushes his eyes lighting up.

“Right now?” Theo asks excitedly, wanting to go with him.

“Go I will meet you there ” I tell my husband and he races out the door with Ryland. Amara looked

at the door and I could tell she wanted to go but also didn’t want to leave her newly found mate. I could

see it tearing her apart, choosing between meeting her nephew and this girl running away from her.

“Go, I will show her around” I tell Amara, letting her know her mate won’t be escaping her.

“Baby time” She gushes excitedly before grabbing Mia’s face and kissing the poor girl so quickly

before darting out the door.

Mia stares after her not able to hide her shock, yep Amara is definitely going to get me sued.

“You're not going?” I ask Emery and he shakes his head when Amara comes back.

“Emery” She hisses at him.

“I guess I am” He says getting up before pausing and looking at a stunned Mia.

“Go she is fine with me” I tell him and he reluctantly chases after Amara.

“I am terribly sorry about my daughter, she can be a handful” I tell her.

“She is alright” She says touching her lips before looking at the door. I could see her confusion.

“Did she?” She shakes her head trying to make sense of Amara's actions.

“Did she kiss you? Yes she did, you will get used to her” I tell her. She nods her head, one thing I

missed about Imogen when she was human was watching her try to make sense of our actions.

Looking at this girl in front of me I was suddenly curious if she was aware of what mates are, I couldn’t

bear to see Amara’s heart broken.

“You don’t seem to weirded out that she kissed you '' I tell her sitting at my desk wanting to see if

she would reply.

“No, just stunned,” She admits. I nod.

“My daughter is bisexual does that make you uncomfortable?” I tell her wanting to gauge her

reaction.

“No, she is very pretty” She says before realising what she said. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said that” She says looking horrified at what she said.

“So your bisexual?” I ask, she didn’t seem fazed by my questioning might as well find out what I

can since guaranteed Amara won't let her escape the mate bond..

“Huh?’ She asks.

“You have never been with a woman?” I ask her. I was going to get myself sued, shut it Tobias. I

mentally scold myself. Yet I was curious to find out if she would be accepting of my daughter. Her face

turns bright red.

“I have never been with anybody” She says which shocked me. Her resume said she was 22 yet

she had never been with anybody?

“At all?” I ask her blurting out my shock like word vomit.

“Nope, are these questions on the application, I don’t remember having to fill this out with the

recruitment agency?” She says.

“They must have left them out, just need to make sure your comfortable working with my daughter

and her mate”

“Mate? That’s like soulmate or something, I think I read about how supernaturals have mates” she

says.

“Yes, Emery is her mate”

“But she kissed me, wouldn’t that have caused him pain. I read it hurts the other mate” I chuckle at

her words this girl was pretty well informed and clearly knew what mates are.

“Yes, it causes them pain unless the person is also their mate, I have two mates. Theo and my

wife Imogen” I tell her letting the words sink in.

“You have more than one?” She asks and I nod. I could practically see the wheels turning in her

head.

“So she hurt Emery by kissing me?” She mutters so low, I almost missed it.

“No she didn’t hurt Emery, nor would it have hurt her if he kissed you” I tell her and she nods

looking around nervously before it seems to click, her head whipping toward me.

“Wait, Amara and Emery?” She doesn't finish like she didn't know how to ask.

“Yes they are both your mates” I tell her.

“But I am human” She says, her heart pounding in her chest.

“So was my wife,” I tell her.

“Was?” I nod, Shit maybe I shouldn’t have told her, I think to myself when she suddenly starts to

hyperventilate, her heart beating erratically. Her face falls slack and I jump up just in time before she

falls out of her chair.

“Guess I will take you to meet your new nephew, and future mother-in-law” I mutter to myself

before scooping her up. I walk to the elevator before pressing the button.

“Welcome to our crazy family Mia” I whisper before chuckling to myself, she was in for one hell of a

ride being mated to my daughter.
