Three Fated Hearts by LNC

I can’t believe that Paul would just walk out on me like that, walk out on us. After everything we’ve been through, after everything I’ve done for him and this pack. It can’t all be reduced to ‘I’m disgusting’; there has to be more.

Before I can leave his office and go after him, Landon walks in and closes the door. He looks at me but says nothing. Landon walks over to the bar and pours himself a drink. He sits in the armchair next to the bar and leans forward, elbows on his knees, drink in hand. I lean against the desk, waiting for him to speak. I’m not sure how this will go, but I’m here for it.

“You could have just rejected him, mom.” I say nothing but watch Landon take a sip from his glass. “You could have rejected him, and this wouldn’t have happened.” Landon looks up at me. “Why didn’t you reject him?” I sigh and walk over to the chair on the other side of the bar. I slump in it and lay my head back.

“You have your fated mate now. You know how it feels to even think of rejecting them. Imagine trying to actually do it, trying to get the words out of your mouth.” Landon scoffs.

“So why not just be with him then? Why dad?” I sit up straight and look at Landon.

“How could you ask me that? If I hadn’t been with your father, you and your brother wouldn’t be here. If I had accepted Stuart, you wouldn’t have your mate.” I stand up and kneel in front of Landon. “If I hadn’t made the choices I did, where would we all be now?”

“If you hadn’t made the choices you did, dad wouldn’t be hurting so much right now, and my mom wouldn’t be a whore.” I slap Landon so hard that his drink flies out his hand and crashes to the floor away from us. Glass and amber liquid splash everywhere. I stand up and face Landon with a fury I’ve never felt before.

while, you have been lying to everyone, and your fated mate was right under your nose. You are not who I thought you were. You’re definitely not someone that should be called ‘mom!’ I stumble back, shock coursing through my body. I can’t believe my own child would say these things to

NOW!” My heart is pumping in my ears, trying to drown out the yelling I’m hearing. I gulp and keep running, trying to use as much speed as my body allows. My legs are starting to ache, and I feel like passing
