Fated To Not Just One But Three novel Chapter 260

260 Half Sister

“She’s a half–sibling… but not just that,” he began, his voice low, like just talking about it got him pissed.

His words settled over me like a blanket, and I nodded slowly.

He let out a harsh scoff. “Like I said–she’s an enemy. And yes, I kidnapped her because I wanted leverage over Damien. I hate that man–I wanted to strip him of everything, even time. But I didn’t hurt her. I only tied her up, took videos and photos, then untied her and kept her in a locked room. Two days later, I noticed she looked sick… really sick. Even though I hated her, I called for a healer, but Sofia said she didn’t need one–I should just let her go. So I did. I told my men to bring me Rebecca–his new wife. But it wasn’t Rebecca they found… it was you. My sister.”

“Wait…” I said, furrowing my brows. “This half–sister of ours… is it–Sofia?” 3

My eyes widened in disbelief. “Sofia?” I echoed. “No wonder… the resemblance. That’s why she looks so much like me.”

“I invited the triplets, and they accepted.”

I frowned. “You kidnapped her and used her to threaten Damien to step down?” I asked, confused by the pieces falling into place.

“And?” I breathed, needing to know the rest.

I stayed silent, trying to process that.

“I’ll take you to see her,” he said quietly. “After tonight’s party. I promise.”

He leaned closer, his voice low and mischievous.

He nodded. “She wore them the night she married our father. They were her favorites. I thought it was only right… that you wear them tonight.”

A happy grin spread across my face as I accepted the box.

Calvin’s voice softened as he added, “Years later… Mom conceived again. She had you.” His gaze darkened. “She made some choices. Aligned herself with the wrong people.”

He nodded again, a bitter edge in his voice. “You share blood. And unfortunately… she’s

an enemy too.”

He nodded. “The moment they saw it, everyone knew. You were the one the prophecy spoke of. You were the chosen one. And that’s why you had to disappear–because so many people wanted you dead. And when I say people who wanted you dead, I don’t mean strangers. I mean family. Our father’s distant relatives–descendants of great–grandmother Hailee. They knew their only chance to produce another chosen one was if you were dead, so our parents sent you away and lied that you died a few hours after your birth. I also grew up with that lie; not until my fifteenth birthday did they tell me the truth.”

He looked down at his hands. “Like I said… in great–grandmother Hailee’s bloodline, it’s the females who carry the special gift. A unique, divine power that’s passed down from generation to generation–but only through the daughters.”

Calvin looked up and sighed. “That our father’s next child would be a girl. And she would be the one to inherit the gift. The true heir. The one chosen by the Moon.”

I tilted my head. “Complicated how?”

I stared at him, barely breathing.

The first thing I saw made my breath catch. It was a stunning red dress, silky and elegant. I lifted it slightly, the fabric slipping through my fingers like water. Beneath it were silver heels, delicate and sparkling like starlight.

I nodded, comforted by the sincerity in his voice. He smiled at me again, and I smiled

I froze. My heart skipped. “What? Why?”

“Yes,” he finally said. “We do. But it’s… complicated.”

I blinked, stunned. “A twin?”

“I was just three,” he said. “Mom took me along to a council meeting. According to her…. when she came back, she found her twin sister, Selene, in bed with our father. And he

was… dazed. Like he wasn’t even himself.”

Feeling a flutter of excitement, I unsealed it carefully.

Calvin sighed, rubbing his palms together before finally speaking.

I noticed Calvin hesitate. His smile faltered just a little before he inhaled deeply. Something in his expression shifted. The calmness in his eyes clouded with a trace of… annoyance? Frustration? Pain?

Just then, the door creaked open slightly, and the old seer peeked inside. “Forgive me for interrupting,” she said gently. “I need to prepare Olivia for the ritual. Her locked abilities will begin to awaken soon.” 2

Calvin continued, “After our great–grandmother, Hailee, something strange happened in the family line. All her children gave birth to only males–no daughters. That included our father’s generation. None of them had a girl, and everyone began to

worry.”

“The door is open,” I said gently.

“What?” I whispered, completely shocked.

He hesitated again before looking me straight in the eyes. “Our mother had a twin

He straightened with a dark, playful gleam in his eyes. “Sit back, baby sister… and enjoy the show.” 2
