Mated to the Alpha triplets

Chapter 27. The Field trip 6

Olivia

"What?" I asked stupidly and shot Josh a glare as he snorted.

“You heard me the first time,” Logan said smiling.

No no no. Don't smile. I can't handle it when you smile, I end up doing or saying something stupid.

Just then Josh nudged me with his elbows and bailed on me.

“Enjoy yourself, Olive,” He said as he jogged away.

Traitor

I glared at his retreating back and shot him a middle finger. Logan smiled at my expression and moved closer to me.

“Shall we?” He said as he extended his hand.

I felt awkward but I couldn’t keep him waiting. I grabbed his hand and he led me to the beach. As we walked hand in hand, I felt like a giant spotlight was shining down on me with a loud MC announcing to everyone, Look guys! They're holding hands! Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

We eventually got to the water and we waded in. Logan immediately ducked his head underwater and shot back out causing the girls nearby to squeal and giggle. He shot me a cocky grin and started swimming around me. I wasn’t sure of what he had in mind so I just remained still like an idiot. The glare from other girls, especially Helen, made me more uncomfortable.

“You should enjoy yourself, Olive, and also be free with me," Logan said as he swam to a stop in front of me. He grabbed my hands and drew me deeper into the water. I smiled at him, ignoring the glares I could feel burning lasers to my ski.

I splashed in the water trying to remain afloat and he could see how clumsy I was when I was swimming.

“Is this your first time swimming?” He asked, quickly grabbing onto my waist.

“Was it that obvious?” I replied, out of breath.

From the disastrous attempt to swim or from his hands around your waist.

Oh shut up, I told that inner voice.

He chuckled and helped me remain afloat, teaching me how to on my own. He taught me the basics of swimming and I quickly understood them. We spent like ten minutes horsing around in the water before I began to feel tired and told him I needed to be out of the water. He told me to go ahead as he wanted to swim more. I stepped out of the ocean and sat on the shore. I played with the sand and watched Logan as he explored the ocean. He was smiling happily and also waving at me.

“Did you enjoy yourself, Liv?” I suddenly heard and jerked, as I turned to see Lucas approach me. I placed a hand on my chest and tried not to glare at him for scaring me.

“I only swam with Logan, nothing happened,” I said worriedly as the encounter I had with Logan at the palace and what came after flooded my mind.

“I know,” He said as he glared at me. “I only came to warn you to stop attacking Helen.” He added.

My jaw dropped at this statement.

Helen was the one attacking me and yet none of them failed to see beyond that act she's always hiding behind. How exactly do they fall for her pretense? Is there something more to it or are they just too dumb to see it?

“I wasn’t attacking Helen. I was only stating the facts, Lucas.”

“What fact? Always get your facts right before spewing out nonsense,” He said angrily.

“I protected you from that man because he was clearly being sleazy towards you and what? Everyone noticed the way he was staring at you and yet, you are suspicious of Helen,” He added.

I turned away from him and my gaze fell on Helen who was now playing in the water and swimming happily with Lucien. I turned back to Lucas, “I don’t need you to protect me, I can protect myself. I’m also a werewolf.”

He scoffed loudly and gave me a scathing glare, “Fine, I won’t protect you anymore.” He said as he walked away.

I looked at him and I felt the mate bond again. My heart started burning and then I saw Logan running towards me. He came closer and asked what was wrong.

I took a deep breath and after calming myself down, “I’m fine.” I replied to him.

“Did he do something to you or say something?” He asked as he sat beside me.

“No. I just felt out of breath. I think it’s because of all the swimming.” I said.

“Do you feel seasick?"

“No, I only meant that it’s my first time swimming and it must have tired me out.”

He smiled and laid down on the sandy beach, tugging me down beside him. “Why is this your first time swimming? We've had school field trips to the beach before and even once to a resort. Why

didn't you ever come along? He asked.

I gulped as I stared at his impossibly handsome face so close to mine. Then what he said sunk in and I turned to look at the sky.

I can’t believe he is asking me this kind of question. You all bullied me, what other reasons are there to know?

“I never participated in school activities because I was always bullied and you know that as well,” I said softly.

As if he was trying to change the topic, he stood up, “I brought some interesting books with me. Will you read them with me?” He said.

I knew I shouldn't but I couldn't resist. I chuckled and nodded my head.

“Let me get them from the bus.” He said before walking away. I couldn’t take my eyes off his body and I saw the girls, especially Tina, drooling at the sight of him as he walked away. I laid down back, staring at the sky smiling. I had so much fun with Logan and I was reminiscing about the time we

both spent in the water. Just then Helen's face appeared, blocking out my view. I groaned and sat up.

“What are you doing here?” I asked angrily.

“I’m here to keep you company. I guess Logan must be tired of you as he is nowhere to be seen anymore.” She said smiling.

I rolled my eyes and replied, “He wasn’t tired of me Helen. In fact, he went to bring some books he wanted to read with me.”

“You still believe you stand a chance with me, Liv. It’s not too late to give up, dear Liv," She said smiling.

“Don't call me that, only those close to me are allowed to call me that. And Helen, you are just an attention seeker. I know you framed our tour guide earlier. You guys were talking about me and I know you stayed back just so everyone would be worried and the triplets would look for you. You only did that because you didn't like that everyone was talking about how similar I looked to the girl and the painting and because Lucas was acting protectively.” I said frankly.

She giggled before frowning, “Where is your proof that I framed the tour guide? No one will believe a lowly omega like you. The triplets chose to believe my words while they failed to hear you out. This proves that only my words matter and you'll always be nothing compared to me.”

“How can you, Helen? You'll ruin someone's life just… to…to play games? The triplets don’t know what you truly are like, if they learned who you truly are, do you think they would still protect you?” I said.

“I’m the Beta’s only daughter, Olivia. And you're still an omega, while I'm a dominant wolf. I rank way higher than you, don't you ever forget that.” She yelled out.

“Like I care,” I said as I stood up to walk away from her. “Why is Logan taking so long to get some books?” I muttered as I walked past her, loud enough for her to hear.

“Bitch! You are going nowhere.” Helen said as she stopped me.

“I’m not going to waste my time on you, Helen.”

“You are just a lowly omega just like your parents. You are a loser just like your parents.” Helen said.

“Shut up! Keep my parents out of this!” I screamed. Everyone’s attention had now turned to us which I failed to notice in my anger.

“You are a loser and your parents are too.” Helen moved closer to me and whispered to my ears, smiling devilishly.

She ran her hands through my hair. Her words made me angry and I slapped her hands away.

"Do you know? That your parents have never been accepted fully by the entire pack, the two idiots eventually fell in love? Who would love them in the first place? It's a shame, they fucked and still had someone like you?" She continued whispering.

I saw nothing, I didn't even see how the students had gathered around us. All I could see was a red haze as I lifted my hand and slapped her.

"Olivia!"
