~Landon~
I can’t be surprised that Tia asks that question; I guess I just hoped it wouldn’t come. She
has every right to wonder if we have slept with her sisters. It is honestly something we
should have discussed before we went this far, but how much longer was I expected to
keep away from my mate?
I clear my throat, and Tia looks at me. “I’m sure you know how Adela is; very practical and
prudent. We discussed things and decided that it would be better if we waited.” I sigh.
“Truth be told, I was still hoping to meet my fated mate, so I had no trouble deciding to
leave things at just kissing.” Tia nods in response, and I let out a breath I was silently
holding in. I was scared that she would be upset or not believe me. This entire situation is
not the norm, and it will take a lot of sensitivity to navigate it.
Lincoln is still silent, and I wonder what’s going through his head. I’m not aware that
anything had happened between him and Aida, but I’m not with him 24/7. “And you?” Tia
doesn’t hold back, and I like that. I always wanted a mate that was able to take control
when needed and wouldn’t hesitate to put me in my place.
“I…..I didn’t really do anything with Aida.” I have to admit that I’m somewhat surprised. I
had to convince Lincoln to look for our fated mate, so I just figured he wouldn’t turn down
a woman’s advances if it came to that. “Aida tried to do things, many…….many times.”
Lincoln shuts his eyes, and I catch Tia trying not to laugh. “Some days, she was relentless,
but I always managed to get out of it. She……she even appeared in my bed one morning. I
still don’t know how she get in. I haven’t done anything with her, though. There was
always something that held me back.”

I set my eyes on Tia, and she isn’t looking as confident as she was just a minute ago. She
actually looks a bit….guilty? “What’s going with you, Tia?” She says nothing, so I sit up on
my side and look at her. Lincoln follows my actions. When Tia notices we are both waiting
for her to speak, she closes her eyes and places a hand over them.
“Well?” Lincoln says, nudging her arm with his nose. Tia sighs and uncovers her eyes. She
looks up to the ceiling, and I can see tears forming.
“I…..I didn’t wait for my fated mate. I have dated a few guys and been with them,” she
responds in a whisper. I’m not going to lie, but that did hurt a bit. The thought of someone
else touching my mate was almost too much to take. The truth of the matter is that I
never expected my mate to have waited for me. That isn’t even something fair to expect.
I watch a tear fall from the corner of her eye, and Lincoln quickly wipes it away. I kiss the
corner of her eye, and Lincoln kisses the other. “Tia, that isn’t important. I mean, I will be
honest and say that the idea of a man touching you does get to me…..but I never
expected my mate to have waited. I’m not at all upset or disappointed. You are perfect
just as you are.” Lincoln kisses her cheek, and I do the same. I would never let something
so trivial come between my mate and me. So she is more experienced. I can confidently
say that I know that my brother and I are the best she has ever had. We are the best and
the last.
~Tia~
Well that went a lot better than I could have hoped. I was sure that once they found out I
had been with others, they would be upset, to say the least. They are Alpha males, and
Alpha males can be very possessive. I’m just glad that we see eye to eye on this issue.
The floor is quickly becoming uncomfortable, making me want to lay in my bed. The issue
is that my bed isn’t big enough for the three of us. My bed may only fit two of us semi-
comfortably. These are big guys and will take up a lot of the room. I don’t want to be the
one to suggest getting a room, but that may be the best option at this point.
Before I could bring the topic up, my phone rings; I scramble to find my pants to get my
phone. I swear I didn’t notice where articles of clothing fell while we were doing what we
were doing. I look up to see Landon waving my phone in my face with a smirk. I notice he
is still hanging out of his pants, making my cheeks burn. Landon laughs a bit at my
response, and I turn my head, answering my phone.
“B***H!!!!” S**t…..it’s Lynn. I completely forgot to call her and let her know what was
going on.
“Hey, Lynn. What’s up?”
“Are you serious right now? What’s up?? S**t! What the hell is going on with you? I’ve
been hearing some talk, but it’s too scandalous to believe.” I look at Lincoln and Landon,
who are curiously looking at me. I guess it would be helpful to know what’s being said
among the pack members in light of what just happened.
“Uh….what….what’s being said?” Lynn laughs.
“Did you reach her?” I can hear Mark in the background.
“Hey Mark! How are you?” I can hear shuffling and movement.
“Tia! Finally! We have been trying to reach you since yesterday. Your phone kept going
straight to voicemail.”
“Yeah…..it kind of died on me and today has just been crazy.”
“We were trying to find out what’s going on. The Alpha twins running off during their
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmceremony and you disappearing……are the two related??” I can hear Lynn giggling in the
background, making me suspicious about what she has heard.
“Mark, we should just drive out there so we can find out in person.” Before I can respond,
Lincoln takes the phone out of my hand.
“You may not want to make that drive. Tia will be pretty busy the next few days.” I can
hear a gasp on the line while I groan into my hands. Landon is chuckling at the entire
situation.
“A…Alpha…..uh….Landon or Lincoln…..I….uh…..I…..” Lynn is a stuttering mess, and Mark
is not helping her out of things. I snatch my phone back just to watch Lincoln laugh at me.
“I’m sorry about that. I will call you back when I get a chance.” I hit the hang-up button
and glare at Lincoln. I can’t believe he would make things so damn awkward like that. He
bends down and kisses my lips, making my frustration dissipate much to my irritation.
Damn, mate bond.
“So we need to get going to get to the room I’ve booked.” I look at Landon like he is
growing two heads. When the hell did he have time to book a room for us? I swear he was
just standing over there, and I didn’t see him get on the phone.
“You don’t want to stay with us?” Lincoln looks a bit heartbroken, which causes pain in my
heart.
“We can always stay here.” Landon comes closer to me, offering his hand to help me up. I
tentatively take his hand but don’t answer. “We can just rotate who sleeps in the bed with
Tia. I volunteer myself for tonight.” Landon gives me a wink, Lincoln growls at him, and I
struggle to hold in my smile.
“Uh, I will just pack…..I guess. Give me a minute.” Landon and Lincoln smile from ear to
ear, and I head off to the bedroom. I decide to have a quick shower and pack a bag. I
guess my mates and I will be spending some one-on-one time together.
