Three Fated Hearts by LNC

As if this couldn’t get any worse. My sister is upstairs with a creepy shrine to one of my mates, and here I am, running into the one person I have wanted to avoid the most. I truly don’t have the energy to deal with my father right now, but I guess, at this point, I have no other choice.

I stand still and take a few deep breaths. “I said: what the hell are you doing in my house?” I gulp, but no words are forming in my mind, let alone coming out of my mouth. I can feel my heartbeat increase, and I have to say that I’m pretty scared. I don’t know what is going to happen with my dad.

trying to keep busy while Tia was gone. It’s been hard trying to focus on all of this paperwork. I know I have warriors following her, but it’s not the same as being able to watch her myself.

I look up, and my dad is watching me. I wonder why I would need to go outside. A small smile forms on his face, and

out the front door. I stop on the porch and look out. I can see Tia walking toward me at a slow pace. I want nothing more than to run to her and scoop her up in my arms, but I don’t want to seem too eager. I impatiently wait on the porch, wishing I had to power to speed up

around my waist. I lean my head down on hers, and I can hear her sobbing. “What is it love? What happened over there? How is your sister?” Tia continues to sob, and I rub her
