All Chapters of Destined Mates Series: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Mandy's panther jumped within her, urging her to move faster when they spotted Kinsey standing around a bistro table with Dimitri and some others. If Mandy doubted what she felt before, she could no longer deny it now that Kinsey stood so close and Mandy's panther wanted to bust out and take the woman right there in the crowded bar. The sensations overwhelmed her, making her cunt throb just as much as they confused her. She had never been with a woman before, never even been attracted to one, so how her panther scented another woman as its mate befuddled her. Still, there was no denying the urges filling her right then. She needed Kinsey Pickford. Needed her right then. Right there.The sounds of a bar assaulted her ears, clinking glasses, loud music—Garth Brooks singing about his low friends—raucous laughter with ear-splitting shouts as people enjoyed their Saturday night. The air was warm from the cluster of bodies filling the place, and Mandy watched as servers in skimpy outfits mad

Kinsey shifted her car into park as she stared at the front of Gracie's Diner. Surely, this isn't the right place. People actually eat here? She almost felt as if she'd rather drive the thirty extra minutes in either direction for something a little less…rustic. Why in the world would Fitz choose this place for breakfast?Gracie's Diner was attached to the west side of a building, which also held a gas station with a convenience store for those people traveling from the coast to the house of the mouse who couldn't make it without a Snickers or a bag of chips. I think I'd starve before stopping here. The concrete building was a smear of faded white paint and grime, neither of which would come off with a pressure-washer by the looks of it. The parking lot was in even worse shape as Kinsey discovered when she pulled into the place and her passenger front tire hit the first of many potholes, rattling her car until she thought parts would fall off. Weeds lined the parking lot, strangling wh

Kinsey struggled to know where her place was at the moment. Once Fitz returned to the motel where he and Mandy stayed, he called Kinsey asking her to meet them at his brother's cabin. The way Fitz sounded on the phone worried her. His voice held a stress to it that made her wonder if Daniel Everest had reached him before her and Mandy were able to talk to him, urging him to stand up to his father. Daniel was relentless in his pursuits, and right then, Fitz was his main focus. But then, why have her meet him at Dimitri's cabin?Right before Fitz hung up with her, though, he said something that sent a shiver of cold dread down her spine. "Kinsey, Mandy told me you saw my father's car at the gas station. He's not here for anything good, like to surprise his children with a fatherly visit, I assure you. Be careful. Watch your back and don't stop for anything or anyone until you've reached Dimitri's place. Promise me."She promised him, of course, but suddenly, she feared their mating calls

For the next two days, the three of them never left the cabin, even choosing to order in their food, instead of venturing out to stock the shelves. They spent their time exploring each other's bodies in the bedroom and sitting around the cabin exploring the possibilities of the future. Their panthers were calmer; at least, in the manner of the mating call, they were. In terms of the lust that filled the room, they were as insatiable as their human counterparts. The three of them had a difficult time keeping their hands and mouths off each other, and Mandy found herself buried between Kinsey's legs several more times since Sunday.They agreed there would be no sleeping in separate beds. They would live together, love together, sleep together, and every other together that existed. They weren't separate relationships trying to coexist; they were one relationship with three parts. Unorthodox, perhaps, but for them it would be how they lived. Mandy bore Fitz's mate mark, as did Kinsey, and

"I'm surprised you actually came up for air," Dimitri said with a chuckle. "Hell, when I first marked Adira we stayed locked in the cabin for days. We didn't even realize we ran out of food until we finally wore ourselves out, and that was just the two of us. I can't imagine how much energy three of you would have."Fitz sat across from Dimitri at Gracie's Diner, sipping his third cup of coffee. "It's kind of hard to stay naked when you're afraid the Order will bust down your door and kill your mate." The smell of greasy burgers filled the air as plates and glasses clinked against each other. The diner was filled almost to capacity as nearby residents of Bull Creek and Holopaw filled their bellies with lunch. The bell dinged by the pickup window as plates of steaming food passed through the window, waiting for the servers to swoop by and deliver it to hungry customers. Another bell dinged over the glass door as people walked in and out, either starving or satisfied. "Trust me," Fitz sa
