Three Fated Hearts by LNC

It doesn’t take me long to get home. Dad isn’t here, and I’m not sure where Aida is. I search the living room and kitchen, but she isn’t there. I head upstairs to see if she’s in her room, and I find her door locked. We don’t usually lock our doors. Being twins, we don’t hide much of anything from each other.

I knock on the door, but there is no answer. I wait a bit and put my ear to the door to see if I can hear anything. I hear what I think is some shuffling, so I knock on the door again. The doorknob jiggles, and the door opens slightly. “What’s up, Adela?” Aida looks a bit flustered and slightly out of breath. I try to look into the room, but that prompts Aida to squeeze through the door and close it shut behind her.

“Uh….how are you?”

“I’m doing okay, I guess. I’d imagine that’s not what you came to talk to me about.” I tell Aida all about the talk I had with the Luna and about Jenna. Aida says nothing while I relay everything, and when I finish, we share a deep silence. “Well, if that’s it…….” Aida turns to her door, but I grab her arm to stop her.

where Tia is or if she is even coming back. I’m not sure I can take over this pack without her by my side. I know that the pack needs Landon and me and is

she will request to leave and not come back. Neither scenario is one that we want to come to

have a connecting door between our rooms, but that still doesn’t make it the room for the three of us. I think everything

in no time. Tia walks through the door, and I swear my heart is practically beating out of my chest. I have missed laying my eyes on this beautiful woman. You would think that we have been apart for

Landon, who is looking at me. “You two should sit.” I can feel my knees getting weak, but taking a seat is the last thing I want to do. “I can’t do this. I have to worry about my sisters, father, Luna Kimberly, and now this Jenna character is here to try to get rid of me, I guess. I just

am to stay, I need to do so on my terms. I need to be comfortable here, and that means saying and doing whatever I feel is necessary, Luna-to-be or not.” I look at Landon, wondering if he knows what that means, but he looks just as confused as I am. I look back at Tia and wait for more. “I will need to tap into another side of ‘Tia’, and I need you two to be supportive. If there is any
