Three Fated Hearts – Chapter 4

I make it to the packhouse with Tia in my arms. I take her up to my room and set her on the bed. I watch her look around the room, taking in all the details. I have a king-sized bed in the room against the back wall. A big screen television is mounted on the opposite wall, big enough that I can see it from several different locations. There is a small eating area in the room with a love seat and a small, two-seater table. I have a huge 4-door armoire with matching end tables on each side of the bed. My room has a walk-in closet as well as a luxury bathroom. My brother’s room is pretty much the same, though with different color schemes. Actually, there is a door that leads right to his room from mine.

She won’t be complete with just one of us, and we won’t be complete with anyone but her.  We look at each other in the darkness, me trying to convey everything through our twin bond. That bond i

Tia sighs and scoots backward a bit. The minute her body makes contact with his, she snuggles up to him, placing a hand on his thigh. A sigh of contentment leaves her lips, and Lincoln’s eyes widen in surprise.

n’t fight this, Lincoln. We have our fated mate now, our Tia. Let’s enjoy our blessing.

I don’t look half bad, considering everything. I have to admit that last night was the best sleep I can remember having.
