Three Fated Hearts by LNC novel Chapter 5

~Landon~

I feel the bed next to me, but it’s empty. I open my eyes and come face to face with the eyes of my brother. Tia isn’t there. I sit up and look around the room, but there is nothing to see. Lincoln heads to the restroom but comes back quickly and shakes his head. I have no idea where she went or how long she has been gone.

Trent?

Yes, Alpha Landon.

I need you to find someone. Find Portia Colby. See where she is. Check with her family if need be.

Yes sir.

“Trent is going to look for her.” Lincoln nods and sits on the edge of the bed.

“Thank you.”

“For?”

“For talking to me last night. I really needed that. I don’t want to lose out on our mate.” I reach over and pat Lincoln on the back. I head into the restroom to shower and get dressed. I throw on some jeans, a long sleeve v-neck sweater and a pair of Timberlands. When I come out of the closet dressed, Lincoln is sitting on the bed, having changed as well. He has on a pair of blue jeans and a white t-shirt with Air Forces.

Son?

Yes.

We need to talk. Your mom and I are in my office waiting on you and your brother.

I look at my brother and realize he got a similar message. We head out of my room and down the stairs. This packhouse has four floors, with the Alpha floor being on the top. My parents have a house next to the packhouse, but my brother and I opted to stay on the Alpha floor. The floor under us houses the Beta on one end and the Gamma on the other. The second floor has various offices and meeting rooms. The bottom floor has the general areas for all of the pack: game rooms, kitchen, sitting rooms, dining room, etc.

We make it to my dad’s office, soon to be our office. My mom sits next to him, and we sit across from him at the desk. We all sit and look at each other, no one speaking. “Well?” My mom says, looking between Lincoln and myself. My dad puts a hand on her arm, patting it. I clear my throat, but Lincoln beats me to it.

“We found our mate yesterday…….our fated mate.” My dad looks interested, and my mom looks suspicious.
