Mated to the Alpha triplets novel Chapter 37

Olivia

I chuckled at the mention of “Hello beautiful” before accepting Skyle’s handshake.

I couldn't help noticing how handsome Skyle was. His tawny blond hair was wavy and curled just above his collar. His brown eyes were flecked with long, dark eyelashes and seemed hypnotic. He looked to be about just a little above 6ft in height. And his blinding, warm smile only served to make him look friendly and approachable.

I was reminded of the triplets but shook away the thoughts of them and focused on Skyle.

“Hello, Skyle,” I replied, feeling shy. 

“You look beautiful, Ol… I'm sorry I forgot your name,” he said as he stared into my eyes.

“Olivia,” I said or rather I breathed out softly. I could feel the blush that rose on my cheeks.

Just then Gwen and Josh made a teasing sound which made me blush harder.

“I see you two have an instant connection,” Gwen said teasingly.

“What connection?” I said sheepishly.

“You do know you are blushing, right?” Josh said smiling.

I groaned and covered my face with my palms, parting my fingers to steal glances at Skyle to see his reaction.

“Skyle, why don’t you keep Olivia company while I also focus on Josh.” 

“I would be glad to do so,” Skyle said as he moved closer to me.

“Enough of the shyness. We all know you are beautiful.” He said while removing my palms from my face.

“You shouldn’t hide that beautiful face, Liv.”

Oh my gosh, is he flirting with me right now? Liv? 

Does he think we're close enough for him to call me that? 

Beautiful? He is joking, right?

If he finds out that I am an Omega, will he still act like this?

The thoughts zipped through my mind and I was so deep in them that I didn’t hear Skyle was asking me a question. Gwen tapped my shoulder, “Liv, are you okay?”

“I’m fine, Gwen.” 

“Are you sure?” Josh asked.

“I’m good.”

“Skyle, I’m putting Olivia in your care. Make sure she enjoys the fireworks while I do so with Josh, and spend some alone time with him.” Gwen said smiling.

“Okay,” Skyle said, still smiling at me.

I didn't know why but I didn't want to be alone with Skyle. As I was about to utter a protest, Josh cut me off.

“You should enjoy yourself, Liv. Don’t think of anyone else except yourself. Be selfish for once this time around. Okay?” 

I guess he and Gwen really want to spend time alone with each other. I should let them rather than being a third wheel.

I nodded and smiled at him. Gwen pulled him away and they left. I sighed as I moved closer to Skyle. The clouds fell away, and the moon shone brighter as light fell on his face making his face more visible. 

He smiled at me and just then my phone rang, and I saw Lucas' name flashing across my screen. I nearly dropped my phone in surprise, and I started warily at my phone. 

What does he want now?

I can see Logan calling me, but Lucas?

Could it be that he is sorry for what happened?

I frowned and declined the call, imagining Lucas frowning or growling at his phone as I rejected his call and put my phone back in my pocket.

Skyle, probably seeing my reaction, smiled faintly.

“Can I ask why you are not picking up?”

“Nothing. I just don’t want anyone to spoil my mood right now.” 

“Ohhh. I get it. Do you care to share who was calling?”

“I don’t even want to talk about him. He is rude and arrogant. I’m not sure if you will know him, but I will only tell you who he is. He is Lucas, he is the Alpha’s son in my pack.”
