Three Fated Hearts by LNC

~Tia~

As badly as I need a shower, I don’t want to return to the packhouse to take one. Luckily for me, Lynn and her family don’t live in the packhouse. I head over there, and after promising to tell her everything, Lynn lets me take a shower and gives me clothes to wear.

The shower is refreshing and allows me a lot of time to think. My situation isn’t going to get any better, so I need to be proactive. I need to put everyone in their places, so they understand that I’m not one to play with. I just don’t know how to go about doing that. My mom was right; I have always just run and avoided. That is the wrong strategy here. I’m not a kid anymore, and this will impact more than just me. The pack needs a Luna and the Moon Goddess meant for her to be me. I have to step up to the plate and do what I have to do.

Once I finish showering, I put on the clothes Lynn gave me and head downstairs to find her. She is sitting at the table with her brother. Lynn and Mark are my best friends since we were little. I still have no idea how it happened, but I have appreciated it ever since.

I peer into the room and take a look at my besties. They are messing with each other like they always do. Lynn has a tan skin tone with super thick and curly hair. Mark has a bit of a darker skin tone with a shaved head. They both have light green eyes, which they get from their mother. Lynn and Mark have always been popular with the opposite s*x since they are light-skinned. I always said it was the eye color, but they swear they are just average.

“Finally! I though you’d never get out of the shower.” I walk over to Lynn and sit next to her, facing Mark.

“How are things, Mark? Anything new to tell me?” Before Mark can respond, Lynn chimes in.

“Oh no, b***h! You owe me some information, asap. That was the deal for you to be able to avoid your mates and come here.” I sigh and shake my head.
