~LUCAS~

I stare at the phone in my hand long after the call ends.

My chest feels heavy.

God.

I feel like absolute garbage.

I drop the phone on the bed and run both hands down my face.

Why did I just talk to her like that?

Marcella’s voice echoes in my head.

Soft, bright and confused.

Completely unaware that every word she said made my chest tighten.

The moment I heard her say…

“It’s Marcella.”

My heart jumped like an idiot.

My entire body lit up instantly.

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    DEFINITELY NOT SURVIVING TONIGHT

    ~LUCAS~Marcella is already looking at my body.Not just looking, but admiring too.Like I’m some kind of exhibit in a museum she paid full attention to.“Lucas…” she says softly, almost like she’s tasting my name.I freeze.“What?” I ask cautiously.She stands up slowly and starts walking toward me with no hesitation and no shame…just confidence.For some minutes, I contemplated running back into the bathroom and locking myself inside.Her eyes don’t leave my body.“This…” she gestures vaguely at me, “…is unfair.”I blink.“Unfair?” I repeat.She stops right in front of me, her gaze dropping again….this time more openly.“Do you even know how well built you are?” she asks.My brain glitches.“I—what?”“You…” she exhales, almost like she’s impressed. “You’ve been hiding all this under your clothes?”I choke.“I’m not hiding anything!”“Oh, you are,” she counters immediately, standing up slowly. “This is very much hidden treasure behavior.”“What does that even m

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    DON'T LOOK

    ~LUCAS~The bathroom door closes behind me, and I lean against it for a second.I don’t know how long I stand there with my forehead pressed against the door.Five seconds? Ten?Maybe a full minute.All I know is… I’m rethinking every decision that led me here.Every. Single. One.“Focus,” I mutter to myself, pushing away from the door. “It’s just a bath. A normal bath. People take baths every day. You’ve done this your whole life.”Yeah.Just not with Marcella waiting outside like a villain in a psychological thriller.I turn on the shower.The water comes out warm instantly—of course it does, because apparently even the water in this house is rich.The sound of the water hitting the tiles echoes softly, filling the space, but somehow it doesn’t calm me. If anything, it makes everything feel more intense… more real. Like I’m counting down to something I can’t escape.I step in, trying to ignore everything she just said.Trying, but failing terribly.Because n

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    A CRAZY MARCELLA

    ~LUCAS~I don’t think I’ve ever felt anything like this before.Not the laughter. Not the noise. Not even the chaos that filled the house just a few minutes ago.No… it’s what came after.The silence.The kind that settles in slowly, wrapping around you, pressing into your chest until you become aware of every little thing… every breath, every heartbeat… every feeling.And right now?All I can feel… is her.Marcella.She’s standing just a few steps away from me, but it feels like she’s everywhere. In the air. In my head. Under my skin.“So…” I say, rubbing the back of my neck, trying to act like my brain isn’t completely scrambled right now. “What’s next?”Smooth, Lucas. Real smooth.She swallows slightly before answering, trying to sound normal… but I can hear it. That tiny shift in her voice.“You need to take your bath,” she says.I nod quickly. “Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense.”Then it hits me….. reality, clothes, and toiletries.Everything I don’t have.“Y

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    TIME TO SAY GOODBYE

    ~MARCELLA~This game of Truth or dare is going to be fun.“Next!” Stephanie says quickly, clearly trying to recover. “Lucas!”“Is it my turn now?” He asks.“Yes, pick someone,” Stephanie says.I watch Lucas grins slowly.Oh no! He must be up to something.“Jason,” he says, turning his head. “You're up.”Jason sighs. “Of course I am.”Lucas raises a brow. “Truth or dare?”“Dare,” Jason says immediately.“I dare you…” Lucas pauses, clearly enjoying this, “…to dance seductively. Like a lady.”There's silence, and then….we all burst into laughter.“You’re joking,” Jason deadpans.“Nope,” Lucas says, completely serious.Stephanie is already clapping. “YES! DO IT!”Derrick is practically falling over laughing.Jason stares at all of us like he’s reconsidering his life choices…Then sighs.“Fine,” he says and stands up.And what follows?Is the most ridiculous, over-the-top, dramatic attempt at a “seductive” dance I have ever seen in my life.He starts swaying his hip

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    A GAME OF TRUTH OR DARE

    ~MARCELLA~The rest of the day unfolds like a dream I don’t want to wake up from.Laughter keeps spilling into every corner of the house, warm and alive, mixing with the music that refuses to die down. Plates clink, glasses touch, voices overlap, and for once… everything feels full. Not chaotic….just full.Full of life.Full of him.I watch Lucas as he moves around the room, slower than before but stronger than he was just days ago. And each time he smiles… God, each time he smiles, something inside me settles.There was a moment…..small, almost unnoticeable, when he pauses near the wall, one hand pressing lightly against his side. His smile flickers… just for a second from pain still there, and not completely gone.My chest tightens immediately. I almost stand up… almost rush to him… but then he straightens, catches someone’s joke, and laughs again like nothing happened.And it hits me….how hard he’s trying to be strong.For us.For me. I swallow thickly, my fingers curling agai

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    WHAT HAPPINESS FEELS LIKE

    ~MARCELLA~I'm not even concentrating on the other people in the room.The only person I'm focused on is My Lucas.I'm staring at him.He's laughing so much…. really laughing.The kind of laugh that fills a room.I have never seen him laugh this much and for some strange reason, I get scared that I might never hear his laughter again.My chest tightens.The party is getting fun now.Music plays loudly in the background, blending with conversations and laughter.I catch sight of Stephanie and Fred laughing and giggling at each other like they've known each other since ages.Just looking at them, you'd think they're best of friends or even a thing because they're being so touchy.I gasp when I turn and see Jason looking towards them with his face completely morphed into that of jealousy.Not only is Jason jealous, he is also furious.Wait! What??Don't tell me Jason is secretly in love with Stephanie?? Or is he just jealous because another guy is taking all of

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    THE MORNING AFTER BEING DRUNK

    ~MARCELLA~My bedroom door suddenly swings open. I spin around so fast my head nearly explodes.And there she is.Stephanie.Standing in the doorway like she owns the place, holding a glass of water in one hand and a small bottle of pills in the other.“Good morning, slee

    ~MARCELLA~I didn't hear from Lucas after I sent out the gifts. I waited and waited, but still nothing.I am tempted to call him, but it takes every ounce of strength in me not to ask around for his number after realizing I don't even have his number.Yes, I admit that I want
