~ELENA~

The house feels too quiet once my step brothers leave.

The echo of their footsteps fades down the corridor, and all that’s left is the distant murmur of rain against the windows and the occasional groan of old wood shifting in the cold.

I stand in the center of the room, still wrapped in the blanket Riccardo gave me, and just breathe.

For the first time in hours, maybe days, I let myself feel the silence.

It’s heavy.

But it’s the kind of heavy that holds you,

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    OUR FIRST KISS

    ~LUCAS~I'm having a trauma triggered panic attack in the presence of Camilla.My heart is pounding so hard that I can hear it in my ears.I can't stop shaking.The room feels smaller, the air heavier, and the rain outside seems to be growing louder with every passing second."Lucas?"Camilla's voice reaches me from somewhere far away.I can't answer. I can't even look at her.My arms wrap around my body, my hands gripping my upper arms as though I can somehow hold myself together by force.Another crack of thunder makes me flinch violently."Lucas?"She's beside me now. I can see her moving in the corner of my vision, but I can't make myself focus on her."Lucas, look at me."I try…. I swear I try, but all I can see is my mother standing in the rain.All I can hear is the storm that swallowed the last moments of her life.My breathing becomes more erratic, each attempt to draw air leaving me more frightened than the last, and feeling like the terrified boy

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    THE STORM

    ~LUCAS~By Thursday evening, Camilla and I are more than determined to prepare for her next exam.She is sitting across from me at the table, surrounded by her notes, textbooks, and the color-coded flashcards she's prepared for her third paper.Her first two examinations were on Monday and Tuesday, and I still haven't forgotten what happened after she finished writing them.On Monday evening, I was reviewing some case notes when my doorbell rang.I'd barely opened the door before Camilla came flying into my apartment."Lucas!"I had just enough time to recognize her face before she threw her arms around me and practically jumped against my body.I stumbled backward, catching her instinctively before either of us could lose our balance."Whoa! Camilla!""I did it!"She was laughing so hard that I could barely understand her."Did what?" I ask."I wrote my paper! And I knew the answers!" She pulled back just enough to look at me, her face glowing with excitement. "L

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    I'M SORRY, MARCELLA

    ~CAMILLA~"Marcella Nico?"The moment Lucas's eyes widen, I realize what I've done.Oh, God.What have I just done?For a second, I forget how to breathe. I can only stare at him, watching the surprise on his face slowly give way to suspicion as he leans forward."How do you know her?" he asks. "Camilla, what exactly do you know about Marcella Nico?"My heart pounds against my ribs.I have never been particularly good at hiding things from people who know me well, and judging by the way Lucas is looking at me, he is already beginning to suspect that there's more to my question than simple curiosity.I force myself to smile. "Know her? I don't know her personally.""Then how did you know her name?" He asks."Well..." I look down briefly, pretending to think. "I came across her on Instagram once. I remember seeing her pictures, and I was surprised by how much she looked like me. I thought it was such an unusual resemblance that I remembered her name."It's a lie.

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    WHAT EXACTLY DO YOU KNOW ABOUT MARCELLA NICO??

    ~LUCAS~“That's when I decided I would study law,” I pause, and her eyes meet mine. "I wanted to understand the system that had failed him. I wanted to know how to fight back against people who believed they could take advantage of someone simply because that person was poor, grieving, or didn't have anybody powerful standing behind them."My voice steadies as I speak."I couldn't save my uncle, and I couldn't undo what happened to him. But I could make sure I never stood helplessly by while somebody else was denied justice because they couldn't afford to fight for it."Camilla watches me with an expression I struggle to interpret."So I started working." I shrug, attempting to make the next part sound less difficult than it was. "I took whatever jobs I could find. Cleaning, deliveries, helping out at shops, carrying goods for people who needed an extra pair of hands. If somebody was willing to pay me for honest work, I did it for three years.”"For three years?" she asks softly."For

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    THE MAN WHO RAISED ME

    ~LUCAS~We're going to kiss.The realization hits me so suddenly that it's almost like being slapped awake.Camilla's fingers are wrapped around my wrists, her beautiful, tear-stained face tilted toward mine, and her eyes are fixed on my lips with an expression that makes it painfully difficult to remember why I should move away.For one reckless second, I want to kiss her.I want to close the remaining distance, cup her face in my hands, and find out whether her lips feel as soft as they look.The thought is so powerful that I nearly act on it. Then reality crashes into me.What the hell am I doing?This is Camilla. My student. The girl who has spent the last several minutes crying because she's terrified of disappointing herself, and whom I've been trying to comfort.She's vulnerable right now, trusting me to make her feel safe, and here I am, standing so close to her that one more movement could change everything between us.I have no business wanting to

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    THE WORDS I NEEDED TO HEAR

    ~CAMILLA~Sweetheart.The word slips past my panic and settles somewhere tender inside me. I look up at him in disbelief.Did he just call me sweetheart?“Yes, sweetheart. You need to take a breath,” he repeats in a soft and loving tone.I draw in a shaky breath."Good. Now let it out,” he says.I exhale, and he waits until I take another breath before speaking again."That's it, Camilla.”I look away, embarrassed by how close I am to crying."I'm sorry.""Why are you apologizing?" He asks."Because I'm making everything difficult,” I reply."You're not making anything difficult, Camilla.""I am. You spent all this time helping me, and I'm still struggling with the simplest things."He reaches across the table and gently closes the book in front of me."Camilla, I want you to listen to me carefully."I swallow hard. He leans forward, resting his forearms on the table."You are not stupid,” he tells me, and my lips tremble."Mr. Lucas…..""No. Let me finish." His

    ~ELENA~The whispers multiply until it feels like the entire hallway has turned into a low hum of excitement.“Who is he? Does anyone know?”“They say he is doing his masters.”“I heard he's transferred.”“Transferred? He looks like he walked straight out of a magazine.”“D

    ~NICO~The moment my fist connects with Alessandro’s jaw, the sound is louder than I expect. A sharp crack that silences even the shrieks around us.He stumbles, spits blood, and collapses onto the floor.The crowd roars….half in shock, half in awe. Phones are out, cap

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    You shouldn't have been here

    Alessandro stands in the middle of his father’s office, tall and impassive, hands in his pockets, face unreadable. His black shirt clings to his frame, sleeves rolled to the elbows, veins prominent, tattoos peeking at his wrists. The room is thick with tension.Behind the heavy mahogany desk sits
