Three Fated Hearts by LNC

~Aida~

Never did I think I would be able to see my sister again before we disappeared. I have to admit that I’ve missed her so much. We are twins who have always done everything together. There has never really been a time that we have been apart until recently. Maybe I can get her to go with us. I would love to have my sister by my side. “Come and sit down. How have you been?”

“You heard me, Aida. What have you done? Why is Lincoln here and tied up?” I turn to Lincoln and blow him a kiss. Maybe I should have gotten Landon too. That probably would have made my sister happy. Perhaps we can get him before we leave tomorrow night.

“I got my man. Wasn’t that the plan……to get our men back? Well, mine is sitting right there.” I look back at Lincoln, and my smile grows while I imagine how our life will be once we get away from here. We are going to be so happy.

Adela walks over to Lincoln, looking him over. I watch her movements while she walks around him. “She won’t,” I whisper. “She’s my sister and she wants me to be happy.”

“Did you say something?” Adela looks at me with her hands on her hips. I clear my throat.

“No, I didn’t say anything. Anyways, maybe we can snatch Landon for you tomorrow night. We can all head out together.” Adela eyes Lincoln once more before making her way to me. She sits in a chair next to mine.

“Tomorrow night? Head out where? Why is Lincoln wearing daddy’s watch?” Oh, Adela must not know about dad and the Luna. I wonder how she’ll take the news.

to go far from here tomorrow night and start our lives together. It’s everything we discussed. I mean, we won’t be the Alpha and Luna to Emerald Lake, but I’m sure we can create our own pack when we get to where we’re going. You and Landon should joining us so we can do it just like we always said we would.” I lean in closer to Adela. “The watch is another story, and you will never believe what I found out.” Adela looks at me, waiting for me to tell, but I hear Lincoln huff behind me. I don’t know if he should know about this. As it is, I will have to keep him subdued for a while, and this news might make it that much harder to do. “I’ll tell you later. The watch, actually, is a talisman. It keeps the fated mates from feeling betrayal and dampens the bond between the wolves. Eventually, they will forget their fated mates all together. It doesn’t take long at all; then it’s like the bond never happened!” I remember the necklace, jumping up with a clap. I head to my duffel bag to get the little bag I keep the talismans in. “When we get Landon, I have another talisman for him. He will forget all about Portia and, eventually, only have eyes for you. This is perfect! I’m

have some things I need to do so I should do that. I will be back, and we can figure out

until they forget about the mate bond. Everything is perfect.” Adela stands up

I will go, but I will be back sometime in the morning. I just need to get a few things. Aida, this is going to be great.” Adela kisses me on

I know that scent, and this may not be good. I look at mom, and she has fear all over her face. I have to protect her no matter what. “Nikki, can we talk?” I slowly turn around, and there stands my father. His suit is wrinkled, and he didn’t bother to button his shirt back up. His scent

You owe me that much.” My whips around so fast, I can’t keep her behind me. She’s in front of dad before I can move,

keeping your fated mate as a what? A side piece?” Mom steps back a bit. “Hell, maybe I was the side piece all of these years. I owe you? You owe me my life back. You owe me my youth, my happiness, you…… UGH!” I step behind mom, ready to pull her away if I need to. That slap was so fierce that dad’s head snapped
