Fated To Not Just One, But Three

Chapter 197

Chapter 197: Rooftop

Olivia’s POV

With a racing heart, I climbed the back stairs that led to the rooftop. Every part of me screamed not to go. Even my wolf growled low, warning me to turn back—that something was off. That whatever waited ahead... might be dangerous.

But I ignored it.

Curiosity burned too deeply in me. What more could there possibly be? What else could hurt me that hasn’t already?

When I pushed open the rooftop door and stepped out, the cold air hit me and I exhaled deeply. My eyes darted around the space, but the rooftop was empty. There was no one except me.

I exhaled slowly, tension still crawling up my spine. Maybe it was a trap. Maybe they changed their mind. Maybe—

But suddenly, I froze.

There.

She hadn’t been there a second ago. I was sure of it. But suddenly, a woman stood at the edge of the rooftop.

It was like she had just... appeared.

One blink, and there she was, her long coat fluttering in the breeze. Her presence was chilling, as if the air itself bent around her.

I narrowed my eyes, my heart beginning to pound again—this time harder.

"Who are you?" I asked, my voice trembling despite my desperate attempt to sound strong.

She didn’t speak.

She just stood there, her back turned to me.

A chill ran through me. Something wasn’t right.

I took a cautious step forward.

"Did you send the letter?" I asked again, louder this time.

Still, no answer.

Then—so slowly it almost felt unreal—she turned to face me.

The second our eyes met... I stopped breathing.

It was like staring into a mirror.

She looked exactly like me. But an older version of me.

Same eyes. Same face. Same curve of the mouth.

How can a total stranger and I have such resemblance? It was as if I was seeing what I will look like in twenty years to come.

What in the world...?
