Fated To Not Just One But Three novel Chapter 278

Chapter 278: Where Were You Last Night

Olivia’s POV

"Are you okay?" Nora asked, her curious gaze meeting mine through the mirror as she helped me tie my hair into a bun.

I swallowed hard and sighed. "I had a dream."

Lolita, who was straightening the sheets on my bed, looked up. "A nightmare?"

I scoffed and shook my head. "It wasn’t. In fact, it was the best dream of my life," I admitted with a blush.

Nora smirked and winked at me through the mirror. "So why don’t you look happy?"

I frowned. What is there to be happy about? It was just a dream... but Goddess, I wished it was real.

My wolf growled approvingly in my head, and I rolled my eyes at her. Horny bitch, I muttered silently.

Just then, a knock landed on the door.

"Breakfast is served, my lady," a maid called from outside.

I turned to Nora and Lolita. "Come with me. I want to introduce you to my brother."

They looked at each other nervously.

"You think he’ll accept us?" Lolita asked, acting nervous.

I smiled and shook my head. "Don’t worry. Just be yourselves."

This morning, I was dressed casually in jeans and a simple top. I wasn’t Luna anymore—no need for formal gowns.

We made our way to the dining room, and there sat Calvin, already at the table, halfway through his meal.

The moment we stepped in, his eyes shifted toward us... then landed on Nora.

I noticed it instantly—the way his gaze lingered on her. It was intense and unreadable.

I cleared my throat. "Brother," I said, walking up to him, "these are my friends, Nora and Lolita. I’d like them to stay here with me."

For a moment, he said nothing. He just kept staring at Nora. Not even blinking. I turned slightly to glance at her and noticed her fingers were clenched nervously at her side, her eyes lowered to the ground. She was panicking.

But then I looked back at Calvin... and what I saw surprised me.

There was no hate in his eyes.

Just a strange stillness.

After a few seconds, he gave a small nod and returned to eating without a word.

I exhaled, relieved. "Thank you, brother," I said gently, taking my seat at the table.

Nora and Lolita bowed politely before turning to walk away. But as they did, I noticed Calvin’s gaze follow them... no, not both of them. Just Nora.

I furrowed my brow. He was staring again, his expression unreadable.

What was that look?

Before I could figure it out, a guard entered the dining room, holding a medium-sized, neatly wrapped box in his hands.

"This just arrived for Lady Olivia," he said, stepping forward.

I stood halfway, reaching out. "For me?"

But before I could touch it, Calvin shot to his feet.

"Don’t," he said sharply, blocking my hand. His tone was firm, protective. "Something harmful could be inside."

I blinked at him, startled, but slowly lowered my hand. "Okay..."

Calvin took the box from the guard, setting it gently on the table. He inspected it carefully, then unwrapped it.

Inside was a delicate velvet pouch. He pulled it open and revealed—

A silver locket.

I gasped.

It was beautiful. The kind of jewelry I’d always admired in shop windows but never bought for myself. Simple, elegant, with a tiny sapphire set in the center.

Nestled beside it was a small folded note.

Calvin picked it up and began to read.

At first, his expression remained calm.

But then his eyes darkened.

His jaw tightened.

And unexpectedly, he hurled the entire box across the room with a growl, the contents scattering across the floor.

I flinched. "Calvin!"
