Mated to the Alpha triplets novel Chapter 12

Olivia

Helen’s shrill voice broke through the haze I had gone in when Lucien's lips met mine. I tore myself out of his arms and took a step back from him. I was so surprised that I went stiff immediately.

Logan and Lucas only laughed at me since they were drunk, but there was something in Lucas' gazd that made chills run down my spine. I looked at Helen and saw that she was wearing only Lucien's shirt and nothing else.

Lucien’s compliment yesterday must have made her feel that she had a chance with him. I thought to myself bitchily.

Lucien stumbles again and before I could grab him, Helen ran forward to prevent him from falling.

She led him to the bed and laid him gently on the bed and watched him as he fell asleep. I looked at Logan and Lucas to see that they were also falling asleep where they each reclined on the sofa. I quickly ran out of the room to avoid Helen’s wrath.

She ran after me and grabbed my arm, turning me around to look at her. I had barely gotten a word out when she slapped me. 

“What the hell just happened in there?” She yelled out.

I winced in pain and could not do anything as she landed another slap on my face.

“Helen… Lucien kissed me first.” I said while crying, holding onto my stinging cheek.

“He was drunk and you decided to take advantage of that. You think I didn't see that?” Helen yelled out again.

My shoulders slumped as I suddenly felt drained.

I can't take any of this anymore. 

I felt so angry and disgusted with myself as Helen continued ranting, her voice seeming even more shrill than ever. I ignored her and went straight to my room without looking back.

“Just wait and see, ugly bitch, I will have my father chase you out of the palace.” She yelled out.

I walked back to my room in the palace and stumbled in. I locked the door and fell on the bed crying. I had brought this upon myself. 

Why didn’t I step back when I saw him coming closer? I made such a fuss, saying I didn't want them, and yet, I couldn't resist a stupid kiss. That idiot stole my first kiss too…my first kiss was with a drunk asshole that has never had any qualms about letting me know how much he hates me…

I cried myself to sleep and was woken up by a knock on my door. It was Miss B.

I opened the door and saw her fuming.

“I must have been too nice to you, cos why the hell will you leave your duty post to take a nap by this time?!” She shouted.

I hung my head low and apologized to her. 

Her gaze softened, “ What happened between you and Miss Helen that made her father come to the palace fuming and looking for you?

“I have done nothing wrong to her,” I replied.

“Anyways, Alpha Damon has asked me to warn you about her. You know your position in the pack dear, you have to be careful.” She added.

I thanked her and we both headed back to the kitchen to prepare dinner. I was instructed to take the princes’ food to their room before coming back down to the kitchen for my own dinner.

My heart beat in my chest sluggish as I wheeled the tray to their room. I was scared of what I might face in their suite after what went down earlier in the day. I bit my lips as I thought of the kiss and the slaps that followed.

I knocked on the door and waited for a reply. I waited for a few seconds and knocked again when I heard nothing. This time, I heard a faint groan so I slowly opened the door and peeped in. The last thing I needed at that moment was the bump into Helen or see something that I didn't want to see.
