Mated to the Alpha triplets novel Chapter 47

Olivia’s POV

“Really?” Alpha Damon asked, his brows raised in surprise.

I nodded at him smiling. 

“I’m so happy to hear that. Thank you so much, Olivia.” He said.

“And if any of my boys annoy you or treat you badly, or if you have any problems working here, don’t hesitate to let me know, okay?” He added.

“Yes sir, Your Majesty,” I said as I bowed and stood up to leave.

Just then he brought out a box and handed it to me. “Take this as a welcome-back gift.” He said.

Pleasantly surprised, I collected the box and bowed again. “Thank you so much, Your Majesty.” 

"You're welcome, Olivia. And welcome back to the palace once again."

I bowed and left his office. As soon as the door closed behind me, I smiled as I tried to peep into the box. 

“Olivia.” 

I heard someone calling my name and when I looked up, it was Sadie who had a weird look on her face. She looked like she had just sucked on a lemon. She moved closer to me and with a harsh voice, she said, “If you are here to resume, then you should do so rather than just roaming around doing nothing.”

“But, I just got here,” I immediately protested.

I forgot just how much of a witch she can be. It's a shame she and Helen don't run in the same circle, he and Helen would have been best of friends. 

“Then stop looking at me that way and get to work immediately.”

Fighting the urge to roll my eyes, I ran to my room and quickly locked my door. I opened the box and all I saw was a beautiful necklace. I admired the stunning piece of jewelry and placed it in a bag before changing my clothes.

I walked to the kitchen and pushed the door open. All the maids looked surprised to see me and they all returned back to their work after welcoming me. Some seemed happy for me while the others only looked disgruntled and ignored me.

I guess they must be fans of either Helen or Sadie.

Miss B came into the kitchen a few minutes later, and she was also surprised to see me working in the kitchen.

“Olivia! You're back. What a wonderful surprise." She said, smiling.

I approached her with a smile and she immediately pulled me into a hug.

“But you told me that you won’t be coming back to the palace.” She asked.

“I actually had a change of heart plus you came to my house to plead on the proud and arrogant triplets' behalf. I couldn't just ignore that.” I said.

“Well, thank you for coming back. I really missed you.” She said, making me blush and giggle in surprise.

She swiftly returned back to her post and then I returned back to mine as well. Sadie who was supposed to put me through was not in the kitchen so I did most of the work without her, glad she wasn't present to bully or overwork me.

The kitchen phone rang and Miss B picked it up. She hung up after a few seconds of listening and instructed me to take two glass cups and a bottle of champagne to the Alpha’s room. She told me he had a visitor and asked me to hurry.

I filled up a metal bucket with I've and placed the bottle of champagne in it. I grabbed the champagne glasses and walked out of the kitchen.

I got to the Alpha’s room and poured him and his visitor the champagne before heading back out.

 As I moved the corridor, I heard Sadie’s voice and I quietly headed towards where her voice was coming from.

To my surprise, she was with Lucien. She moved closer to him as if she wanted to plaster herself into his body. I was so surprised and yet curious as to what the two were up to.

Really, Sadie? Is this what you are up to? 

My eyes narrowed as she even moved closer and I wanted to stalk over to where they were standing and tear them both apart.

I moved closer to them in order to be able to eavesdrop on their conversation very well and then I hid myself well.

“You should be heading back to the kitchen, Sadie,” Lucien said.

He stared at her with a mixed look of both horror and disbelief on his face. “Are you crazy, Sadie?” Lucien eventually said as he burst out laughing loudly.

“You think I don’t know what you were up to. Lucas and Logan told me you already confessed your feelings to them a few years ago but they only left you without punishing you thinking that you were still young. And here you are doing the exact same thing to me. You must be really crazy,” Lucien added.

Ouch

I was now barely breathing, entirely focused on what was taking place right in front of me.

“Is it wrong for me to like you guys? I couldn’t control my feelings and I had no choice but to express them to you. You didn't have to talk to me like that just because I expressed my feelings to you.” Sadie said, now sobbing.

Wow. This is getting more and more interesting.

“Get out of my sight right now if you still want your job," Lucien yelled out.

Sadie smiled as she circled Lucien who was now getting more pissed.

“I know you won’t fire me. And that’s because nobody will be willing to get you the hard drugs you take,” She said with a smirk.

“What?” I whispered softly, utterly shocked.

Lucien is into drugs?!
