The Triplet Alphas' Secret Mate

Chapter 202: Trust Them

Scarlett’s POV

​I looked down at her hands gripping my arms, completely confused. My mind raced, trying to parse her words through the thick layer of suspicion that had been protecting my heart for years. How was I supposed to help her? What did she mean?

​"Let’s just allow destiny to take its control," I said, looking down at her. "Believe in your sons. Believe in their brotherly bond. They are powerful Alphas, Ma’am Olivia. If you want this nightmare to end, you have to trust them to survive it. I can’t do anything else for you... unless you want to kill me."

​Olivia froze entirely. She shook her head violently, her eyes widening in absolute horror as if I had just struck her across the face. "Why would you think that?" she whispered, her voice trembling. "Why would you think I would want to kill you to end the prophecy?"
