Three Fated Hearts by LNC

The commotion I heard made me come out and see what was going on. I noticed both my sons going to the packhouse, and I wanted to run to greet them. I’m so happy to see Lincoln in one piece. I stopped to take in the scene, and I want to recoil. I have a terrible feeling in the pit of my stomach. Something is gnawing at me, and I don’t like it.

There are so many pack members out here, attracted to the loudness like me. Paul is out here along with my sons, and that terrifies me. I have a feeling that something is going to be said that isn’t going to go well for anyone. “No one needs to hear anything else, Stuart. You have ruined her life long enough.” I’d never seen Nikki stand up to Stuart, and it’s an interesting sight.

“No, Nikki. Little miss Luna has asked me a question. Who am I to ignore her?” Stuart turns to Tia, who hasn’t so much as flinched this entire time. “You took away my happy ending.” No, please, no. Please don’t tell me that he’s going to say this out loud.

“I was going to be happy, I was going to be loved, but your mere existence ruined all of that.” Oh, Goddess, no! I want to yell out at the heavens to get him to stop, but my mouth isn’t working. My voice has disappeared, and I can’t move from my spot. I can feel my stomach bubbling, making me want to throw up. This can’t be how things end for me. “You took away my chance to be with my fated mate, Kim.”

I can feel the confusion through the bond with Lincoln and anger from Landon. This is a bit more than I

to my house and crying on my shoulder? You were so overwhelmed with everything. The twins were toddlers by then and they were too much. Paul wasn’t there to help you and you felt alone. The Luna duties were stifling you and you begged me to make it all better.” Dad turns back to me. “She planned to leave the boys and run away. She wanted some time to herself and wasnt sure if she would return. She begged me to go with her and I wanted to. I loved the girls, but I was missing the love of my fated mate. We planned to leave as soon as Paul got back from visiting some

me? You were going to leave just like

as if he is reliving the exact moment this all happened. “Nikki tells me that she’s pregnant, and I just knew you werent mine. How could you be mine when she had met her fated mate while gone? Your mother cried and pleaded with me to accept you, but I wanted proof.” I catch a sob from my mom, and I wish I could comfort her. “It was

small at first, like a giggle, before morphing into a full belly laugh. My mates are by my side, checking to see if I’m okay. I let them help me stand, wipe my eyes and face him. “You are so f**king pathetic! You are standing there and telling me that you have hated me all of my life because you missed out

it, actually. I’m not sure they have created a word for what you are. You could have had your fated mate this entire time, but you chose not to. You were too weak to reject her, yet you act like everyone else is supposed to pay for that. If you were any kind of man, you would have rejected her and made a life with mom the right way, or you would have gotten your mate to accept you.” I can see the smoke coming from his ears, the anger burning within him. I’m glad he’s mad, and I’m glad I made him that way. To think I used to cry myself to

moved, but I quickly turn and grab them to me. They are fighting their shift, but this isn’t their fight. I’ve had enough of cowering to him and allowing him to treat me however he likes. It’s time for me

me go, Tia! I’m going to rip his head

and I can handle this.
