Three Fated Hearts by LNC

The drive to the hotel was quiet; everyone seemed to be in their thoughts. The hotel was a bit outside of the human town, and I had only heard of it before. It is really tall and looks super expensive to stay in. Landon helps me out of the car, and I can't help but gawk at what's in front of me.

Walking inside didn't dampen my shock. Everything inside is so elegant and expensive looking. It's hard to take everything in because there is so much to see. I don’t know how, but when I finally come to terms with what I'm seeing, we are already in the elevator. A glass elevator at that, so I can see everything as we ride up.

“What do you think?” Landon’s question catches me off guard while I'm examining the floors below, watching everything get smaller the higher the elevator goes.

“I think that i“m worried I will break something. If that were to happen, I wouldn't be able to be the Luna.....I would spend all my time working here to pay off my debts.” Lincoln and Landon laugh at this, and I blush a bit. Sometimes I tend to say whatever is in my head without taking a second to think first.

“We can stay here whenever you like. This is can be one of our homes away from home when we just want a break.”

"What do you have stock in the company or something?” Lincoln smirks.

"Or something,” he replies with a small shoulder shrug. I know that the pack has businesses that they use to pull in funds for the pack itself, but we weren't in the hospitality business. Maybe I need to do some more research before taking the oath. How horrible would it be for the Luna not to know much about her pack? I look between Lincoln and Landon waiting for someone to explain. “We kind of......own this hotel.” Landon has his eyes on the view behind us, watching the floors pass by as we ascend.

"When did the pack get into the hospitality game?” Landon chuckles, but it's Lincoln who responds. “Not the pack....us. Landon and I own this hotel, and it's separate from the pack businesses.” My eyes get really wide, and I'm at a loss for words. The twins have a separate business, and from the looks of it, it's widely successful. Landon speaks up this time.

“We wanted something separate, just in case. YOu never know what can happen, and we wanted that extra security. Besides, the pack has been dealing in security for so long that it would make sense for us to want to tip our toe on the hospitality side of things.

The elevator dings, and we are on the 50th floor. Fifty floors! That's just extremely crazy. Lincoln steps out and holds his hand out to me while Landon makes sure to stand in the doorway to keep the doors from trying to shut. I look around at this elegant entryway; it reminds me of the lobby. There is a lot of glass and modern pieces. The running colors are white and gold.

I look around and only see one door. “Welcome to the penthouse. Our penthouse.” Lincoln opens the door in front of me and holds it open for me to step through. The minute I'm inside, I check my surroundings and try not to faint. This is a lot to take in. I had no idea the twins would own anything this extravagant. This promises to be an interesting few days.

They left! They really just packed up a car and took off......to her! Just the thought of that makes me cringe, and it doesn’t make my wolf, Bella, happy either. Bella and I have always been on the same page when it comes to different things. I never really had to fight her on anything. I thought I would have lost her when I rejected my fated, but she was okay with my choice.

I've been walking in the woods, trying to figure out how to get us out of this mess. Aida took to tears and the bed with dad trying to get her out of both. I can only take oh so much when Aida is acting like that, and I reached my fill some hours ago. I rather take action and make some changes while Aida is content to let things happen and wait for someone else to change things for her. “Looking a little lost there? Could you use some company?” I know who it is without turning around. Neal is a warrior here, and we tend to hook up from time to time. I had Landon believing that I was pure and wasn't ready to let that go yet. The truth is that I just didn't want to be with him unless I absolutely had to be. The only purpose would be to have an heir, and I had no issue doing that duty; I just didn't want to do anything for “fun.’

“I'm not really in the mood.”

"Oh, come on. You look like you could use a distraction, and you know how good I am with being a distraction.” 1 don't respond but continue to walk. “You know, you did look gorgeous up there yesterday.” I falter in my steps. He is right; I did look really good in my dress. I feel Neal grab my hand, and I don't fight him.

He leads me to a big tree and pushes me against it. He starts to kiss my neck while grabbing my breasts. I don't really care for the foreplay, but Neal usually seems to need it. All of a sudden, an idea hits me. There is a great way to get the twins out of the way so I can appeal to Portia directly. It's so perfect that I can't believe I didn't think of it sooner.

With my newfound energy, I grab Neal and push him up against the tree instead. A wicked gin appears on his face as I start to kneel. He knows what's about to happen, and I'm happy to give to the person who inspired me.
