Three Fated Hearts

Chapter 25

~Tia~

Amazing, just amazing! That had to be the best encounter with a man that I have ever had. I realize that the mate bond changes things, but I think it’s even more than that. Every touch and every kiss set my soul on fire.

I can hear Lincoln’s heartbeat while I’m lying on his chest. He is running his hand up and down my back. This is a wonderful moment, but something is missing. Landon should be on my other side, and we should all be basking together. I turn to look at Lincoln. His eyes are closed, and there is a small smile on his lips. I guess that’s to be expected since he just experienced his first time. “We should find Landon.” Lincoln nods but keeps his eyes closed. “I hope he won’t be upset that you went first.” Lincoln chuckles.

“We discussed this after you said you wanted us each separately the first time. Neither Landon or I cared about the order, and we agreed to let things happen naturally.” That actually makes me feel better. As great as being with Lincoln was, I was worried that Landon would be angered that he wasn’t involved or informed of this before it happened.

I stretch and start to move from the bed. Lincoln grabs my arms and pulls me back down to him. We start to kiss, and Lincoln rolls us on the bed so that I’m under him. He kisses me so fiercely that I’m left breathless. Lincoln sits up, smirks at me, and heads to the closet. Damn tease!

Lincoln and I are dressed in no time, and we head out of the room in search of Landon and/or food in no particular order. When we get to the second floor, I catch Landon’s scent faintly in the air. He was here at some point. We head down the hall, and his scent gets stronger. We make it to the Alpha’s office, and Lincoln knocks on the door. “Enter.”

Lincoln opens the door, and we walk through; Alpha Paul is at his desk, and Landon sits across from him. They are deep in paperwork, and it’s actually cute to see Landon’s concentration face. His brows

are scrunched up, and his lips are pursed. “Dont’ concentrate too hard; you may hurt yourself.” Lincoln chuckles next to me, and Landon’s eyes shoot at me as if I woke him from a trance.

Landon’s eyes light up when they meet mine. He extends an arm toward me, and I release Lincoln and grab onto Landon. He wraps his arms around me, and I stroke his back. Landon takes a deep breath in, and his head shoots up, his eyes staring into mine. A smirk appears on his face before he looks at Lincoln. He must have smelled my change, the fact that Lincoln and I mated. Landon stands up, holding me to him tightly. He leans down so his mouth is against my ear; his hot breath wreaks havoc on my core. “I guess I’m next.” I can feel my entire fire start to burn, and I bury it into Landon’s chest.

“How are you feeling, Portia?” I clear my throat and lean away from Landon. I can hear Lincoln snickering, and I’m tempted to silence him with a look, but I don’t want Alpha Paul to catch on. I step back from Landon and look at Alpha Paul.

“I’m doing better, thank you. I feel a lot better. Thank you for talk before, it really helped.” Alpha Paul smiles and nods. “Have you eaten, Landon?” Landon is rubbing my arms up and down.

“No, dad and I have been busy working.”

“We should go eat, L. Tia and I are hungry as well.”

“I’m sure, Linc.” I slap Landon’s chest, and he throws his head back in laughter. I hurry and turn toward the door, walking out of the office. So embarrassing, and in front of the Alpha, no less. Landon and Lincoln catch up to me, and we walk downstairs and into the kitchen. I peek into the dining room, but it’s empty. I guess we missed lunch, and dinner hasn’t started yet. I’m okay with that because I’m not sure I’m ready for the entire pack yet.

I sit at the island while the twins rummage in the kitchen. “Do you want anything in particular?”

“Nope. I will eat whatever you and Landon decide to cook. I’m still not too sure about your cooking abilities anyway.” Lincoln shoots me an offended look while Landon rolls his eyes. I hold in my laughter. This feels right; just the three of us enjoying each other’s company. I think I would enjoy life like this.

Lincoln and Landon start to cook our meal, and I start to scroll through my phone. I hear the back door open and footsteps in the dining room. “YOU B***H!” Before I can turn around, arms are wrapped around me. I’m pulled off of the stool and into a bone-crushing hug. When my feet finally hit the ground, I turn around and am face to face with a grinning Lynn. Mark walks up to my side and puts his arm around me, pulling me in for a side hug. Two growls erupt behind me, and Mark quickly pushes me away and removes his arm. I turn to the twins and roll my eyes.

“We are just friends; more like brother and sister. Let it go.” I turn back to Lynn and Mark. “Hey guys. How are things?”

“How are things?! Are you serious right now?! B***h, you have some explaining to do!” I laugh, watching Mark roll his eyes at his sister. Lynn has always been a big personality, while Mark and I are a bit more reserved, though Mark isn’t as reserved as I am. We have learned to deal with Lynn and all of her craziness.

“Yes, we do need to catch up, but we were just about to eat.” Lynn looks past me, and her eyes land on the twins. Instantly, her demeanor changes, and she becomes meek and quiet.

“Uh….sorry Alphas. I just got excited when I saw Tia.”

“You don’t need to apologize, we get it. We have been monopolizing her the past few days.”

“Yeah,” Lincoln chimes in. “Sorry about that. Why don’t you two join us.” Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

“A….are you sure?” Lincoln scoffs, and Landon smiles.

“Of course. Any friend of our mate is a friend of ours. Besides, this will allow us to get to know you guys better. Mark will take the Beta position, and we should try to be closer.” Mark and Lynn nod in agreement, and we all sit at the counter while the twins finish cooking and start to plate the food. We all sit and enjoy getting to know one another over a meal.
