Three Fated Hearts by LNC novel Chapter 57

I wake up early the next morning, eager to spend time with my mom. A little shower play almost made me late to meet up with her. My mates can be insatiable, but I’m not sure I’d have it any other way.

Mom wasn’t in the dining room for breakfast, but I wasn’t worried. I figured she may have eaten at home, and we would meet up later. The twins kiss me on the cheek and head upstairs to get some work done with the Alpha. I decide to wait for mom in the lounge downstairs.

There is more hustle and bustle in the packhouse than usual. I guess everyone is in overdrive trying to get ready for the ceremony, but I’m surprised that anyone would be working this hard. I know Luna Kimberly doesn’t want me to step into her role as Luna, but she doesn’t really have a choice. I’m mated to her sons, who are to be the next Alphas of this pack. She can’t circumvent the Goddess’ wishes.

I check my phone and see that I’d been waiting for about an hour. It’s easy to lose track of time when you are engrossed in social media. The things that people post online for public consumption can be mind-boggling. I wonder what’s taking mom so long to meet with me.

Mom? Are you okay?

Uh….hey Tia. I….I’m fine.

Where are you? I’ve been waiting.

I….I…..I won’t be able to go with you, I’m sorry. I try to respond, but a block has been put up. She can’t come with me? What’s going on? Just last night, mom was excited to come dress shopping with me, and now she can’t go.

I slowly get up and head upstairs to see my mates. My heart is heavy, and I’m not sure what’s going on or what to think about this. I drag myself up the stairs, lost in heartbreaking thoughts.

B***H! Where are you?!

Oh, hey, Lynn. Mom said she couldn’t come.

Can’t come? What the hell is that about?

I have no idea. I’m on my way to see my mates.

Look, I’m sorry, baby girl. I know you wanted your mom there to help, but you still got me. You really do need to get a dress. I sigh in the link.

I know you’re right; I need some time. Let me talk to the twins, and I will hit you up.
