~ELENA~

I stand in front of my open suitcase, numb fingers folding clothes I don't even see. Every sound in the house feels heavier than usual ... .the ticking clock, the muffled footsteps, the creak of wood that had witnessed too many secrets.

I try not to think. Not to think of my new school I'm going to miss because I'm going into hiding. I try not to think of my friends, Valentina and Gianna, that I may never see again as Lorenzo has forbidden us not to step into Flor

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    PLEASE STAY WITH ME, CAMILLA

    ~CAMILLA~Mr. Lucas hasn't eaten all day!Now, how am I sure that he took his medications this morning when he hasn't eaten??No wonder he looks so frail and terrible!The thought of Lucas lying in that bedroom, burning with fever and trying to manage everything alone, makes a tear roll down my cheeks.I quickly wipe it off before it escalates into a full blown cry.He looked after me when I was in pain. He stayed beside me when I could barely get out of bed, made sure I took my medication, and did not leave until he was satisfied that I had everything I needed.Yet he has been sitting here, sick and alone, without even making himself a proper meal.I wipe the corner of my eye again with the back of my hand."You stubborn, impossible man," I whisper.Then I close the refrigerator and get to work.I make a quick, nourishing meal with what I can find, keeping the preparation simple because I don't want to leave him alone for too long. I cook until everything is re

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    YOU LOOK TERRIBLE, SIR

    ~CAMILLA~I finally arrive at Mr. Lucas' apartment, and the moment he opens his apartment door, every ounce of anger I have been holding on to disappears.He looks terrible.His skin is unnaturally pale, his eyes are dull and heavy, and his hair is a mess, falling across his forehead as though he has been running his fingers through it all day.Even standing in front of me seems to require more effort than it should, and the hand resting against the doorframe trembles slightly.For a moment, I simply stare at him, struggling to reconcile the sight before me with the man who usually looks so composed that I sometimes wonder whether he was born without the ability to fall apart."Camilla?"His voice is hoarse, barely above a whisper. He blinks at me in obvious surprise, his brows drawing together as though he cannot understand why I am standing outside his apartment."What are you doing here?"I don't answer. Instead, I reach for his forehead, but he instinctiv

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    I NEED ANSWERS

    ~CAMILLA~Something is wrong.Lucas has been absent from school for two consecutive days, and I am beginning to lose patience with the uncertainty.Yesterday, I convinced myself that he must have had an important meeting or some personal emergency. I expected him to show up today, carrying his usual collection of notes and wearing that serious expression that always makes me feel as though he can see through me.Instead, his seat remains empty, and the senior lecturer has taken over his class again.Around me, students are discussing his absence, with several expressing how much they miss his lessons. Apparently, I am not the only one who has noticed that something is unusual.Lucas takes his responsibilities seriously. He has never been the sort of person to disappear without making the necessary arrangements, which makes his continued absence even more concerning.What could possibly be keeping him away?I am still contemplating that question when Esmeralda nu

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    MR. LUCAS IS MISSING

    ~CAMILLA~I wake up angry the next morning.That is the first thing I realize when I open my eyes, and honestly, it is almost impressive how my mood has managed to survive an entire night of sleep without improving even a little.Usually, when something upsets me, I find a way to get over it. Sometimes I cry, sometimes I complain to Esmeralda, and sometimes I distract myself with a good romance novel until whatever is bothering me no longer feels important.I have never been particularly good at holding grudges because staying angry requires too much energy, and I would rather spend mine doing something enjoyable.But apparently, yesterday's argument with Lucas has turned me into a completely different person.I lie on my back, staring at the ceiling while replaying our conversation for what must be the hundredth time, and every time I remember the way he spoke to me, my irritation returns with renewed enthusiasm.The worst part is that I went to bed yesterday

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU, LUCAS??

    ~LUCAS~I want to say a lot to her, but I can't speak.She stares at me for several seconds obviously waiting for me to speak, and fucking say something. Then she smiles.It is the sort of smile people give when they have finally stopped expecting something from someone who keeps disappointing them.She turns towards the door again."I'll see you in class, Mr. Lucas. Enjoy the rest of your day.""Camilla."She stops, but she does not turn around immediately.For one fleeting moment, I consider telling her the truth. That I was really jealous of her and Steven.That I decided to create distance between us because I was starting to enjoy her company and getting so free with her.I want to tell her the truth that I really miss her.Instead, I say, "Don't forget to review the topics we covered today."For a second, she remains perfectly still.Then she turns her head just enough for me to see the disappointment on her face."I won't, Sir."The door closes behind

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    WHY DO I FEEL A PAIN IN MY HEART??

    ~LUCAS~I stare at Camilla, almost as stunned by my own words as she is.Then stay at my place, Camilla.Did I really just say that?Of all the things I could have said to stop her from spending the night at Steven's house, that is what comes out of my mouth. I actually invited her to spend the night at my apartment, where we will be alone together for hours, with no classes to separate us and no university to give me an excuse to keep my distance.Brilliant, Lucas. Absolutely brilliant.So much for my decision to keep things between us strictly professional. So much for the distance I have been desperately trying to maintain since I realized how much I enjoy having her around.Apparently, I am not satisfied with making things difficult for myself. I have decided to make them considerably worse.I should never have let my jealousy get this far, but the truth is that I have been struggling with it for longer than I care to admit.For weeks, I have watched Camil

    ~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

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    You'll be punished for that

    ~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
