Three Fated Hearts by LNC novel Chapter 17

~Landon~

I’m not sure that I’ve ever driven as fast before. Lincoln stayed in the backseat with Tia, and I focused on getting us to the Moonlight Pack as quickly as possible. Someone hurt our mate, and I was seething. It was taking everything in me to keep Goliath at bay and keep myself level-headed. I want to freak out……I want to scream and cry. I want to find those responsible and rip their hearts out. Instead…..instead I stay focused and logical. Instead, I take control and make sure we can get to the pack in one piece so Tia can be helped.

We are allowed right through the gates, and we make our way straight to the clinic. There are nurses waiting out front with a gurney. As soon as I park the car, the nurses approach the back door to get Tia out of the car. They load her up, and Lincoln and I follow her inside. We part ways with her when the doctor joins the procession into the operating room.

Lincoln and I are tempted to go in and make sure our mate is taken care of, but we know that we need to let the medical staff do their job. “Gentlemen, I’m glad you guys could make it safely.” I turn and look right at Alpha Brenner. He had welcomed us into his pack to train when we took our time out to look for our mate. We developed a good rapport with him despite his daughter. Jenna is Alpha Brenner’s daughter, and she is two years younger than us. The minute we arrived, she was determined to make her presence known and get us to see her as a potential mate.

Jenna is an attractive she-wolf. She has light blue eyes and long blonde hair. She is about 5’10 and thin. She is a typical Alpha’s daughter, you can say. She is used to being important and idolized. I hate to say that ‘humble’ isn’t part of her design, though her father doesn’t know that. She is very skilled at being two different people. She was always very sweet and demure around her parents, but when they were gone, then her true nature shined through.

I glance around the waiting room, but Jenna is nowhere to be found, much to my joy. “Thank you so much for allowing us to come here; being willing to help our mate.”

“There is no reason to thank me. This is the right thing to do. What happened?” Lincoln flops into a seat and sighs. I look at him and can feel his pain and sadness through our bond.
