Three Fated Hearts by LNC novel Chapter 25

~Tia~

Amazing, just amazing! That had to be the best encounter with a man that I have ever had. I realize that the mate bond changes things, but I think it’s even more than that. Every touch and every kiss set my soul on fire.

I can hear Lincoln’s heartbeat while I’m lying on his chest. He's running his hand up and down my back. This is a wonderful moment, but something is missing. Landon should be on my other side, and we should all be basking together. I turn to look at Lincoln. His eyes are closed, and there is a small smile on his lips. I guess that’s to be expected since he just experienced his first time. “We should find Landon.” Lincoln nods but keeps his eyes closed. “I hope he won’t be upset that you went first.” Lincoln chuckles.

“We discussed this after you said you wanted us each separately the first time. Neither Landon or I cared about the order, and we agreed to let things happen naturally.” That actually makes me feel better. As great as being with Lincoln was, I was worried that Landon would be angered that he wasn't involved or informed of this before it happened.

I stretch and start to move from the bed. Lincoln grabs my arms and pulls me back down to him. We start to kiss, and Lincoln rolls us on the bed so that I’m under him. He kisses me so fiercely that I’m left breathless. Lincoln sits up, smirks at me, and heads to the closet. Damn tease!

Lincoln and I are dressed in no time, and we head out of the room in search of Landon and/or food in no particular order. When we get to the second floor, I catch Landon’s scent faintly in the air. He was here at some point. We head down the hall, and his scent gets stronger. We make it to the Alpha’s office, and Lincoln knocks on the door. “Enter.”

Lincoln opens the door, and we walk through; Alpha Paul is at his desk, and Landon sits across from him. They are deep in paperwork, and it’s actually cute to see Landon’s concentration face. His brows are scrunched up, and his lips are pursed. “Don't concentrate too hard; you may hurt yourself.” Lincoln chuckles next to me, and Landon’s eyes shoot at me as if I woke him from a trance.

Landon’s eyes light up when they meet mine. He extends an arm toward me, and I release Lincoln and grab onto Landon. He wraps his arms around me, and I stroke his back. Landon takes a deep breath in, and his head shoots up, his eyes staring into mine. A smirk appears on his face before he looks at Lincoln. He must have smelled my change, the fact that Lincoln and I mated. Landon stands up, holding me to him tightly. He leans down so his mouth is against my ear; his hot breath wreaks havoc on my core. “I guess I’m next.” I can feel my entire face start to burn, and I bury it into Landon’s chest.

“How are you feeling, Portia?” I clear my throat and lean away from Landon. I can hear Lincoln snickering, and I’m tempted to silence him with a look, but I don’t want Alpha Paul to catch on. I step back from Landon and look at Alpha Paul.

“I’m doing better, thank you. I feel a lot better. Thank you for the talk before, it really helped.” Alpha Paul smiles and nods. “Have you eaten, Landon?” Landon is rubbing my arms up and down.

“No, dad and I have been busy working.”

“We should go eat, L. Tia and I are hungry as well.”
