Fated To Not Just One But Three novel Chapter 274

274 Tricked

274 Tricked

I could’ve just teleported away right now, left them all staring at the air.

Levi laughed and rolled off me, raising his hands in surrender. “Alright, alright. Truce.”

I sighed, hugging my knees. “I know. But it’s hard. Everyone looks at me like I’m this… powerful girl who’s supposed to fix everything. But I feel so lost. I miss you both. I miss home. Even with Calvin being kind, I still feel like I’m surrounded by strangers.

Moments later, a young maid arrived and curtsied. “I’ll show your guests to their chambers, my lady.”

Nora let out a shaky laugh. “We missed you more, my lady.”

I sighed, still not meeting Levi’s eyes. “You guys are unbelievable.”

“You can’t blame me. She was once dear to me.”

They tricked me.

But I couldn’t stay in that moment any longer. I forced a smile and stood

  1. up.

The moment their eyes landed on me, they both rushed forward, and I met them halfway. We collided in a tight hug, the kind that squeezed the breath out of you, but in

the best way.

I hesitated, but then I nodded. “I’m surviving.”

They’re already here?

I didn’t know what was going to happen. But one thing was certain–they were still in my heart. And that… terrified me.

“You’re ganging up on me!” I shouted, dodging another attack.

“The only way?” I spat, struggling under him. “You faked collapsing just to drag me here?! What is wrong with you three?!”

Olivia’s POV

As I sat up, rearranging my hair, Lennox stepped closer.

“Not ever again,” Lolita added.

“Oh really?” I raised a brow, tossing him a pillow. “Then show your loyalty, soldier

I frowned.

“Get off me, or I swear I’ll teleport your eyebrows off one by one.”

The second I arrived, I saw Louis and Lennox crouched beside Levi’s motionless form, panic etched on their faces.

“You two had a long journey,” I said. “You need to rest.”

“Wow,” Nora said, spinning slowly. “This room is huge.”

Then, in the middle of it all, Levi tripped on a pillow and fell.

I blinked, caught off guard. “I… I don’t know.”

“Are you okay?” she asked gently.

“Levi?!” I gasped, my heart slamming into my ribs.

Still fuming, I looked around the room, my eyes landing on a pillow near Levi’s head.

Nora and Lolita exchanged another glance before Nora leaned in closer.

We reached my room, and the moment the door shut behind us, all the weight I’d been carrying seemed to ease. Nora and Lolita looked around with wide eyes, taking in the

space.

Totally unfair.

Because deep down, despite all the reasons I shouldn’t… I didn’t want to.

“You’re not alone anymore,” Nora whispered.

“Olivia… Levi just collapsed… He’s unconscious. Please, we need your help…” he pleaded in a panicked voice.

He blinked in shock, then slowly turned his head toward me, his eyes wide. “Did you just throw that at me?”

“Olivia… can you hear me?”

When suddenly-

“Don’t tell me you’re feeling sorry for her,” she growled. *

I blinked in confusion as realization hit me like a slap.

“Oh, you bet I did,” I said, already reaching for another one.

Nora and Lolita.

They watched me quietly, waiting.

I didn’t wait for him to finish. I teleported out of my room and appeared in Levi’s chamber.

Levi turned to me with a grin. “I’m on Olivia’s team now.”

But Levi suddenly froze mid–swing.

Pillows flew through the air, feathers burst loose with every hit, and laughter echoed off the walls.

“It’s beautiful,” Lolita added, trailing her fingers along the edge of the dresser.

The moment I heard Lennox’s voice… the panic in it… I’d felt like the world was collapsing. There was no way I could’ve ignored it.

We sat there for a while, just holding each other in silence.

“What?!” Louis and Lennox shouted at the same time.

My eyes widened as fear gripped my entire being, forcing me on my feet.

Excited, I jumped to my feet and hurried downstairs.

“Please stay for a little while, Olivia,” he said quietly. “We won’t pull another trick, I -promise. We just… missed you.”

“I missed you so much,” I whispered, my voice cracking.

My eyes widened. Nora nodded.

“What happened?” I gasped, rushing to his side.

I looked up at them, eager to know.

“Please stay for a little while, Olivia,” he said quietly. “We won’t pull another trick, I promise. We just… missed you.”

“Gladly.” He turned and tackled Louis to the bed with a flying pillow strike, feathers exploding everywhere.

Before I could react, he grabbed me by the wrist and, in one swift motion, pulled me

My brows drew together in concern. What could their parents have possibly done to warrant their sons‘ rage?

“Are you kidding me right now?!” I snapped, glaring up at Levi, who still hovered above me with a sheepish grin.

“In his room

“I also heard the triplets are sending their parents away as punishment… we don’t actually know what they did… but we heard the triplets are angry with them,Lolita

Then Nora pulled back and smiled through her tears. “We got some news to share.”

Once the door shut, I turned slowly, lay back on the bed, and stared up at the ceiling, my fingers loosely gripping the sheets.

My wolf stirred inside me.

My heart raced in fear.

They both leaned in, wrapping their arms around me. I melted into their embrace. “You traitor!” Lennox shouted at his brother, laughing uncontrollably.

I should be mad.

“Come,” I said, still smiling. “Let’s go to my room. You have to tell me everything

My eyes darted to Lennox and Louis, who were now standing at the foot of the bed with wide grins on their faces.

“No, it’s called bullying,” I fired back, throwing one straight at Levi’s head.

Lolita gave me a look. “Surviving is not the same as living.”

Lolita sniffled, clinging to my arm. “It hasn’t been the same without you. The whole place felt empty.”

The question hit me like a wave I wasn’t ready for.

“Lenno…”

Louis chuckled. “Worked, didn’t it?”

Lennox at least had the decency to look guilty. “I’m sorry, Olivia… we just–missed you. We didn’t know what else to do.”

It hadn’t even been three hours since I contacted Lennox… How did they arrive so fast? My heart raced as I reached the living room.

I swallowed hard, not knowing what to feel.

I gasped as my back hit the mattress, and he climbed on top of me, pinning me down.

But I didn’t.

“My lady… your guests are here,” one of the maids announced softly.

They nodded eagerly, and the three of us walked upstairs like old times, their presence wrapping around me like a warm blanket.

Levi’s eyes shot open.

Without thinking twice, I grabbed it and launched it across the room, straight at Louis.

“Anita lost the remaining pregnancy.”

And then… he kissed me.

I stared at them, my heart pounding, emotions swirling like a storm.

But deep down I missed them too.

Nora looked like she wanted to say more, but Lolita nodded, standing.

I glared at all of them. “I could’ve been doing something important, you know. And you dragged me here with some cheap prank?”

He didn’t hesitate. He dove for a pillow and threw it back, but I ducked, and it hit Levi instead.

I nodded, and with soft goodnights, Nora and Lolita followed the maid out.

Levi growled playfully. “Oh, it’s on now.”

Suddenly, I felt a mind–link snap open.

I pulled back a little to look at their faces. Their eyes were wet with tears, but they were smiling. Just seeing them, just having them here, made something heavy inside me lift.

“Oof–Levi!” I gasped, the air knocked out of me.

“I don’t know what’s supposed to happen,” I admitted. “I’m still trying to understand everything. My feelings, their actions… it’s all a mess in my head. Some days, I’m angry. Other days, I just miss them. And sometimes…” I paused, swallowing the lump in my throat. “Sometimes I wish things could go back to how they used to be. But that is never happening–not with the enmity between our families, and on top of it all, we’re even related.” 1

The room went quiet. Nora and Lolita didn’t ask questions or urge me to say more- they just remained silent, offering their listening ears to me.

“So…” she began gently, “what’s going to happen now? Between you and the triplets?”
