Chapter 5. Officially a maid
Olivia
Lucien walked over to me with a mischievous grin on his face, causing me to tilt my head up just to
be able to re at him. "I think it would suit you. And don''t lie, I bet that deep down, you want it as
well."
I opened my mouth to retort but Logan cut in, "Don''t bother arguing, it''s final. As of now, you are
now officially a maid at the pce. You must report to the pce early tomorrow morning or else…"
I lifted my chin, trying not to cry. "Or else what?"
Lucas growled, "You don''t want to know. And a maid is to always look down in the presence of her
masters. You''re a worthless omega, don''t forget that."
At the glow of his eyes, I turned on my heels and ran back to where I had parked the car. As I got
into the driver''s seat, I saw Josh leaving the building with his eyes on me. He was calling my name,
but I couldn''t bear to face him at that moment so I just drove away.
My hands tightly gripped the steering wheel as I sped away with tears welling up in my eyes. The
words mate and maid still echoed in my mind, and I could not hold back the sob that broke free. The
humiliation and anger burned within me as I reyed the scene in my head.
"What am I going to do?" I muttered, my vision blurred by the tears threatening to spill over. The
thought of being a maid in the pce, at the mercy of those arrogant alphas, whilst still trying to
fight the mate bond was almost unbearable.
The sound of my phone ringing startled me, and I fumbled to answer it without taking my eyes off
the road. It was Josh, calling to check on me. He sounded concerned, but I couldn''t bring myself to
tell him what had just happened. At least not yet.
"I''m okay, Josh," I managed to say, my voice trembling slightly. "Just a little tired. I''ll talk to youter,
okay?"
He hesitated for a moment before reluctantly agreeing and telling me to take care. I hung up and
tried to focus on my driving, ignoring the tears that were now spilling over.
A few minutester, I pulled into my parents'' driveway and turned off the ignition. I wiped my eyes
and tried topose my face before alighting and walking in.
My parents were seated in front of the TV. Their eyes snapped to me as I walked in and I faked a
smile.
"Hey, hon. How was it?" My mom said as she walked over to me. Her brows furrowed as she got
close and saw my face. "What''s wrong?"
I should have known. Nothing gets past my parents, especially my mom. Then, I started crying, but
this time around, I didn''t hold back or fight my tears. My mom held out her arms and I walked into
them. My dad got off from where he was seated and silently came over to you wrapping his huge
frame around us. We remained like that for a couple of minutes before my tears died down.
They walked me over to the couch to ask me what happened. I narrated everything to them. They
looked so shocked that the alpha triplets were my mates and they were infuriated at their
suggestion.
I turned to my mom sobbing, "Mom, what should I do? Must I ept them as my mates? I can just
walk away from all these right?"
My mom was short of words. She looked sad and all she could offer me wasfort. Just then my
dad cuts in.
"Worry not, child. I will go to the pce to see Alpha Damon tomorrow morning".
Those words gave me hope and I was thankful to him. I hugged them both.
"So, go into your room, wash your puffy face ande back down for
dinner. I prepared your favourite." My mom said as she ran her palm over my hair gently.
"Yeah, you look a bit messy dear" my dad addedughing at my appearance.
I knew they were trying to make me feel better, and although I still felt torn up inside about the
triplets, I hid it and gave them a smile. I rolled my eyes at my dad and hugged them both, before
running up the stairs to my room.
I had my bath, ate my food and prayed to the moon goddess that things would go well with Alpha
Damon.
I spent the night turning and tossing, thinking of everything that could go wrong. I eventually dozed
off at dawn.
At what seemed like minutester, a knock on my door woke me up. My bleary eyes shot open in
excitement when I saw the time. It was 11 am and I guessed that my dad would have been to the
pce. I jumped off my bed and ran to open the door.
The look on my mom''s face punctured my excitement and I deted.
"Is everything okay? Is father back?"
"Get dressed ande downstairs, your father wants to talk to you," She said before walking away.
"But mom…" my voice trailed off as I watched her leave. I closed the door and hurriedly put on my
clothes before rushing back out again.
I saw my parents sitting silently. My dad raised his head as I called for him.
"Sit here, hon," he said, pointing beside him. Before I could ask him anything, he cut in.
"I just got back from meeting with the Alpha and it didn''t go as we hoped. The Alpha sided with his
sons and ordered that youe to the pce right now. Even as we speak, one of the guards is
outside to take you to the pce".
I screamed out painfully, "This is wrong. I don''t deserve this Dad. Mom, won''t you say anything?"
"You will release your only daughter as a maid without putting up a fight?" I added.
They both fell silent. Then my dad broke the silence.
"We don''t want this either, Olive. I tried my best but the Alpha just won''t listen. He believes that
spending some time in the pce would endear you to your mates. Short of challenging him, there
is nothing else I can do. But I stood adamant that it would not stand in the way of your education.
Also, he agreed to let you continue to live at home with us, so that means you cane home
every evening after getting your work done."
My mom moved closer to me and held my hands. "You have just a few months of school left, Olive.
After that, you can leave this ce and travel anywhere for college."Her eyes pleaded with me to
understand.

I nodded and hugged them both assuring them that I understood. I headed into my room to pack
some things I might need into my backpack.
Thinking back on everything that had happened, I finally understood that I was a liability and a
curse. The ringing of my phone brought me back to the present. It''s Josh.
I picked it up and he bombarded me with questions. I smiled faintly to assure him that I was fine and
I promised to narrate everything that happened to him in school.
My mom came into my room to check on me as I had spent more than an hour inside my room
"Olive dear, you don''t need to pack the whole room with you. You are free toe home any time
once your work is done, my dear." She said sadly.
I went over to hug her and with my little backpack, we both exited my room. I saw my dad standing
beside my bedroom door. He looked worried and sad. He spread his arms out and I quickly went in.
My mom joined in our hug and we remained like that for a couple of minutes. Our hug was disrupted
by a knock on the front door. It turned out to be the guard waiting to take me to the pce. I
reluctantly released myself from my parents'' hug and followed the guard out the door. He remained
cold and distant on the way to the pce despite my attempts to draw him into a conversation. I
wondered if the pce would be like school or worse.
We eventually got to the pce and I stared up in awe at the sprawling, majestic building. The
guard led me in through a backdoor into a room where the triplets were waiting.
Lucas smirked at me as I walked in. "Wee to your personal hell, maid Olivia."
I gulped.
