Mated to the Alpha triplets

Chapter 50. Jealousy at its peak

Olivia’s POV

“Olivia? Is there something wrong?” Miss B asked me.

“Everything is fine Miss B," I replied nervously, still thinking about what had happened in the dining room with the triplets and Skyle.

I gulped as I imagined the state the triplets would be in.

“Now run along and come back quickly. You know we have a lot to do now that we have guests in the palace.” Miss B said.

I knew the triplets wouldn't just let me be with the way Skyle had acted towards them. I walked slowly as I didn't know what they would do. I finally got to their doorstep and I knocked softly, hoping there would be no answer and I would be able to go back to the kitchen without having to face them.

“Come in,” Lucas' voice boomed.

My shoulders drooped, I pushed open the door entered and bowed to them. I clasped my hands, smiling nervously as I asked them what they wanted me to get them.

They all stared at me in silence for a while. It was not until I began to fidget that Helen broke the silence.

“I had no idea you knew Skyle, Liv.” She said smiling.

I inwardly scoffed and narrowed my eyes at the undertone of disbelief in her voice.

“How did you guys meet? And how long have you known him for?” She asked.

“Skyle is a good friend of mine and I met him when Josh and I visited a friend of ours who's in his pack,” I replied awkwardly.

“How long have you known him?” Lucas cuts in.

"Not quite too long, but long enough." I hedged, unable to help the defiance that crept into my voice.

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?"

"What?"

"The last phrase you said, 'but long enough', what did you mean by that?"

"No… nothing. I just meant that I've known for long enough. Long enough to be a good friend of mine."

I bit as Lucas said darkly, "I see.."

Suddenly, he growled, “I don’t want you anywhere near Skyle.”

“What? Why?” I asked.

“I don't have to explain myself to you. I don't want you anywhere near him and that’s an order.” He said.

I looked at Lucien who was nodding in agreement with Lucas. I turned to Logan and he looked away from me, but he didn't seem to disagree with what Lucas had said.

“That's not fair. You can’t do this to me. I’m not just an ordinary maid so you don’t get to decide who I can or cannot meet or be friends with either inside or outside the palace,” I protested.

“You are a maid here and you will do whatever it is we order you to do.” Lucas snapped at me.

“You can go back to the kitchen as that was what we wanted to discuss with you and you should also know that as of this moment, you are no longer in charge of taking care of or attending to him,” Lucien added. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

I looked at Logan again, furious but he didn’t say anything.

“I’m sorry about how Skyle had acted earlier if that's what this is about. I apologized on his behalf.” I finally said.

"You are not in any position to apologize on that brat's behalf. And don't bother trying to do or say anything else. You won't change our minds."

I opened my mouth to protest, but Helen cut in.

“Olivia said they were just friends, why can't you leave them alone? You guys are not acting like yourselves." She said.

“No, and we aren't.” The triplets said in unison.

I rolled my eyes at them and then I turned to leave.

“Oh Olivia, I hope you didn’t forget about my birthday party. It’s this weekend.” Helen called out.

“Of course not. I will definitely be present,” I said and then left their room.

I heaved a sigh of relief when I got out of their room. I still couldn’t understand what was going through their heads.

Are they jealous? No, Liv.

It's probably not that.

They knew Skyle before you.

Maybe they are just not his biggest fans.

Don’t get too ahead of yourself.

I returned back to the kitchen and saw that it was time for me to go home. I went back to my room to get changed. I laid on the bed as I was a bit tired and decided to rest a bit before going home. I unlocked my phone and messaged Josh to inform him about Skyle’s arrival in the palace. He replied immediately saying he couldn’t wait to meet him.

I replied to him that I would inform Skyle and ask him when he would like Josh to come to the palace to see him. Just then, I remembered what the triplets told me not to meet with Skyle.

I can text him, right? They won’t know about that, right?

I heard a knock on my door. I went to open it, but there was no one at the door. I looked around to check if someone had just left here but I couldn’t find anyone.

As I was about to close the door, I noticed a big box on the floor with my name on the card attached to it.

I carried the box in and then locked the door. I opened it and saw a beautiful gown wrapped in the box. I brought it out trying to figure out who could have placed such a beautiful dress at my door. I looked into the box again to see if there was a card or name, and then I saw a card.

I picked it up to see its content. It was from Logan. He wanted me to put it on for Helen's birthday party.
