~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.”

“Do you think he has a girlfriend?”

“I swear, if he so much as smiles at me, I’ll die right here.”

I should have been focused on Alessandro, on his fingers biting into my skin, on the danger in his eyes….but the pull of the crowd’s awe is impossible to ignore.

Everywhere I look, girls are leaning into each other, their cheeks flush their voices hush but desperate.

They aren’t even pretending to pay attention to the scene Alessandro is making with me.

Because Nico is walking toward us.

My stepbrother.

And none of them know it.

Alessandro notices my distraction instantly. His grip on me tightens until it almost hurts.

“Who are you staring at?” he demands, his tone dark and accusing.

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    As good as dead

    ~ELENA~Alessandro’s fingers dig so deep into my skin that I’m sure I’ll bruise. My pulse thunders in my ears, drowning out even the whispers of the crowd.Nico doesn’t blink. Doesn’t move. He’s a statue carved out of ice and rage, his jaw tight, his eyes locked on Alessandro like he’s already chosen the best way to destroy him.And then….he smiles.It’s not kind. Not playful. Not the cocky smirk he wears when he’s teasing me at home.This smile is cruel. Deadly.A promise.I’ve seen Vincenzo’s violence. Riccardo’s cold precision. But Nico? He’s dangerous in a way that feels… unpredictable. Like you never know when he’ll decide to strike, or how far he’ll go when he does.Alessandro’s grip jerks me closer, his chest pressing against my arm as if he’s trying to shield himself with me. My heart plummets.He doesn’t understand. He thinks Nico is just another boy in the school.But Nico is a Romano. A mafia heir. A son to the ruthless Mafia Don Lorenzo Romano.An

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    The new boy in school

    ~ELENA~The first thought that enters my mind is to go tell my stepbrothers about Alessandro and how he's been a threat to my life in school.Without thinking, I walk straight to my door with shaky legs and walk out of the room.I head downstairs to the sitting room where I last saw them, but they are no longer there.Where are they??I search the gym, library, pool, and basketball court downstairs but they aren't there.Reluctantly, I ascend the stairs and return back to my room since I can't find my stepbrothers anywhere in the house and I didn't hear them come up to their rooms.***I can't sleep even after I have taken my bath to clear my head.I keep tossing around restlessly on the bed, the fear of Alessandro slowly taking over my whole body.Memories that I have forced into the back of my mind start to resurface.I remember how Alessandro punished me by locking me up inside my own room because he read my chats with a guy asking me to meet up with him in a

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    Elena, what are you hiding??

    ~ELENA~Just as I am about to climb the stairs to the rooftop, I hear a voice that isn't Alessandro call my name.“Elena!”I freeze.The voice is too familiar and before I even turn back, I know who it is. It's Valentina's.I take a deep breath and slowly turn back to see Valentina and Gianna staring daggers at me.“We're right after all. You're definitely up to something” Gianna speaks first, her voice laced with slight anger.“And that was why you stayed behind in school till this time. Weren't you scared of being alone in this big school and in the dark?” Valentina lashes out, with concern etched in her voice.I swallow hard.“You guys didn't go home?” I ask foolishly. “I thought you left.”“Yeah, you're literally forcing us to go home so you can be alone and carry out whatever you have in mind. We knew you're up to something, so we pretended to go back home and waited behind instead” Gianna roll her eyes.“What exactly are you hiding from us? What can't y

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    Meeting at the rooftop

    ~ELENA~I push Alessandro away from me but he doesn't look good. Instead he drags me to the far end of the room, pinning me against the cold wall again.“Let me go” I beg with my eyes since his hand is still over my mouth.He opens his mouth to speak but is interrupted.A knock pounds at a door close to the room I am in. Gianna’s voice follows it immediately.“Elena! Are you in there?!”Alessandro turns toward the sound instinctively, his grip loosening just enough for his hand to leave my mouth. My gaze follows his movement… and freezes when his hand drifts to his belt.Oh, God. Is that…?A gun.I grab his arm without thinking. “Stop. Don’t do anything stupid. It’s just my friends.”Another knock.“Open up or I’m breaking it down!” Valentina yells now.Alessandro exhales heavily, like he's forcing himself to calm down. “We need to talk. Really talk. Tonight. The rooftop of the library building. Nine o'clock. Come alone” he tells me.“Elena!!” Gianna yells a

  • Triplet Temptation: My stepbrothers are triplets    Alessandro's seduction.

    ~ELENA~His mouth crashes against mine, hot and urgent, stealing the breath right out of my lungs.I push at him instinctively, but his body doesn’t budge… solid, immovable, like the wall behind me. It's like pressing against stone. His hands cage me in, one braced beside my head, the other gripping my hip with infuriating certainty.My palms, meant to shove him away, stay there and my fingers find the hard muscle beneath his shirt…. feeling the taut heat beneath his shirt, and for a dizzying second, my resistance falters and I can feel my resolve slipping through my fingers.The heat of him seeps through the thin fabric, creeping up my arms, making my head spin. His scent… that mix of cologne and something darker, something purely Alessandro, coils around me like smoke, intoxicating.His hand slides up my side, cupping the curve of my waist, and he presses closer, so close that there is barely any space between us . Every inch of me is caught between the
