My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers AWAKE
It was 10:00 am and there was silence over the entire house. I overslept. I couldn't fall asleep, no matter how much I was trying because of what Ian told me. Mom's confirmation only added more to it, and I just felt very uncomfortable in my room after that. I wanted to call Caspian and ask him to stay the night in my room, but couldn't. It didn't feel like the right thing to do, mostly because I felt like he would be with Leo, trying to calm him down.Changing into something comfortable I moved carefully down the stairs. Each step I took was deliberate because I feared that even the creaking wood of the stairs might alert Alaric of my presence. The memory of his twisted smirk haunted me, and every nerve in my body buzzed with the need to avoid him. The house felt different now—darker, heavier with what it witnessed the night before. The knowledge that I was in danger and the same could happen to me if I wasn't careful enough clung to me like a second skin.The hallway was quiet,
Last Updated : 2025-01-17My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers HOSPITAL VISIT
The white walls and the sterile smell of the hospital felt like a punishment to my senses. I never understood why everything in the hospital has to be so blanded and empty. Why can't they just add a few potted plants and try different colours for the walls?People come to the hospital with heavy hearts in most cases. They don't need a constant reminder of death and sadness, but the white walls do the exact same. They remind you how insignificant and empty your life is compared to the vastness of the world. I was covering my nose, remembering the hospital visit in London, yet the strong smell of the disinfectant clung to the back of my throat as I walked down the corridor. I could almost taste it, and it made my eyes sting. The dim overhead lights flickered slightly as we took a turn, casting an unsettling glow over the white polished marble floors. The hospital was quieter than I expected. There weren't many people around, only a few nurses walking down the corridor, even though it

The sterile scent of antiseptic welcomed me as I walked down the familiar corridors of the hospital, for what felt like the hundredth time. It had been five days since dad woke up, six days since we’d watched him slip between the realm of living and dead, yet it felt like yesterday. The weight of Alaric’s betrayal was still fresh in the back of all our minds, but there wasn't much we could do against him. He was being extra cautious after learning that the cops were involved. Thanks to that we hardly saw him around the house. Most of the time, he stayed out, doing God knows what. The day dad woke up, cops showed up to take our statements but weren't doing much with the investigation. In a way, it was a good thing—even when others disagreed with me—because it helped us keep the accident away from the media. And the fact that dad was not in the public eye for months also helped with it. Most of his friends and associates assumed he was out for another trip. “Hello, sir. Can I he

“What's going on here?” The nurse from before rushed inside the room, and seeing dad, he pushed me away from him. “Get back!”I followed his order and stood at the foot of the bed as he tried to find out what had happened with dad. He checked the monitor while trying to keep him on the bed. Thankfully, he wasn't shaking like before, but it was evident that he was having trouble breathing. The beeping of the machine was still rapid and intense. I was afraid and couldn't dare to look at dad. So, I kept my eyes on the young nurse as he injected dad with something that instantly calmed him down. He stopped shaking and started to breathe normally again. The nurse was still by his side, reading his pulse and trying to talk to him. Dad answered his questions, but I could see that his words weren't clear and his voice started to get lower and lower with each word. After a few seconds, the beeping of the machine went back to normal. “I didn't mean this when I said you should talk to your d

The house felt like a tomb, specially built for me ever since Derek was admitted into the hospital. The entire place felt silent and cold as if the house itself was holding its breath, waiting for the inevitable collapse. I knew it was near, and I also knew that I was going down with it, no matter what I did. I had already told Kat that I would confess, but it wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. I was still looking for alternative ways, but ever since the cops got involved, my mind stopped working. Alaric was being very cautious, trying to wipe out all the prints he had left behind. He had already ordered me to stay away from him, that the cops shouldn't find out about our past. He had a story ready and had assured me that Derek would verify the story if the cops were able to connect us together. Too much was happening too fast and I didn't know how to react. I sat in the dimly lit living room downstairs, the jasmine tea in my hands long forgotten, and the ceramic mug was

I finally found something important. I couldn't believe that it actually happened. I paced the length of my office to cover my excitement because I finally had something that we could use against Alaric to make sure he was gone from our life for good. I stopped right in front of my desk to check the reports once again. The soft glow of my computer screen was casting a long shadow across the room, glaring directly at me. And that made my mind race, each new discovery into Alaric's lies sent a fresh wave of anxiety through my chest. I couldn't believe my luck, and the thought of it all being a hoax stayed in my head, no matter how hard I was trying to get rid of it. I told myself that the information was gathered by my juniors from the company—the people I trust—yet it was hard to believe that they found so much against him. I checked the files once again—to convince myself that things were finally in our favour—along with the links associated with every one of them. The deeper I du
Last Updated : 2025-01-22My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers JUST NOTHING
The days blended together right in front of my eyes, but I had no idea about it. Between gathering more evidence about Alaric, going through his fake charities, and trying to piece together a case that would stick and free us from his dark, twisted shadow, time had become irrelevant. I couldn't even separate events based on the days it happened that week. After learning the whole truth about Alaric's illegal activities, Caspian and I had been working non-stop for over a week. We spent countless hours together in his office, sorting through files and building a solid argument against him, while also doing background research on the people Alaric was associated with. We knew the case would become a national headline and would be the word of the mouth of common people for months. Even International media would talk about it for a few days, given the involvement of so many big names. It was going to be a thrilling journey, and I prepared myself for it. Lucas had left for Austin a

“Are you going to see him again?” Alaric asked when he saw me getting ready for the hospital. “Don't you get tired of running around him like a faithful little bitch? At this point, I am not sure if it's acting for the cops or you have actually accepted the role of a trophy wife.” It had been two weeks since Derek had been hospitalized, and the guilt of not telling him about Alaric was eating me alive. That's why I was going to tell him the truth that day. Even though I didn't know exactly what he was planning, I knew he had something in mind. If I had warned Derek, none of it would have happened. “Get out of the room; others might see us together,” I warned him without moving from my place. “I don't think additional drama would do us any good in this situation.”“I have been away from you for a long time now, I can't control myself anymore.” He walked into the room and shut the door behind himself. “The cops are testing my patience at this point—calling me every other day with more

My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers REALIZATION
I didn’t want to talk about the Salvatore family with Cami. It was too depressing to have that conversation with her. I didn't want to talk to her about Alaric, or about my mother, not about Derek lying in the hospital while his sons tried to salvage the mess he unknowingly helped create.For once, I just wanted to talk about myself.And—more specifically—I wanted to talk about Caspian.“So, let me get this straight.” Cami’s voice was clear through the speaker, cutting through the quiet of my dimly lit bedroom. “You like Caspian?”I groaned, rolling onto my stomach and burying my face in my pillow for a second before lifting it again. “God, don’t say it like that. I didn't mean it like that. I meant there are things that have happened, and he has done things that made me feel weird.”“Like what? The true feeling you've been hiding for months?” She let out a breathless laugh. “Kat, this is huge. You’ve been dodging relationships for years, and now you’re telling me you have actual fee
My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers LOOSER
Alaric knew something.That much was clear the moment he stepped into the dining room, his presence wrapped around the air like a noose, slowly tightening around all of us. His sharp, assessing gaze skimmed over the table, taking in our frozen postures and the lingering tension that none of us could shake off.Then, as if he hadn’t just walked into a room full of people on the brink of plotting his downfall, he smiled. A slow, knowing, chilling smile appeared to scare us. “Why does it look like someone just died?” he mused, his voice was light and easy, but there was something underneath it—something taunting, something dangerous.Nobody answered.I could feel the tension radiating from Caspian beside me, the way Lucas’s fingers tightened around his fork, and the barely restrained scoff from Dev.Alaric didn’t seem to mind the silence. He strolled forward with unhurried confidence, like a predator stepping into a den of prey. Pulling out the chair next to Leo, he sat down, completely
My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers TRUTH OVER DINNER
Dinner had never been that quiet. Not in the Salvatore house. The long dining table was filled with plates of steaming food—pasta, grilled chicken, and fresh bread—but no one seemed interested in eating. They were thinking about something, and while their hands moved mechanically I knew they wanted to know what was the important thing Caspian wanted to talk about. He told them that he had something important he wanted to share with them after the dinner. And I guess he shouldn't have shared that much information with the others before because the others were still thinking about it, trying to figure out what it might be. Ian already had a small idea, yet he could feel the tension in the room. As a result, he was very uncomfortable. I could see it in his eyes. The room was dimly lit, with the chandelier above us casting soft, golden light over the strained faces. Unlike other days, even Leo didn't fuss about the food or ask for dessert with the meal. And that's when I realise
My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers SAFE HOUSE
I swallowed hard, my throat suddenly dried and felt like sandpaper when I tried to swallow the lump forming in my throat. I wasn’t sure about my own emotions, about what to feel—relief, panic, guilt? Maybe all of them at once, or maybe none. Mom had looked at me when I was coming downstairs to help Dev with the dinner, her expression was unreadable. Yet, I knew what was going on inside her head. She must have been afraid of what kind of person wouldn't be in this situation. I asked her what happened or if she needed help with something, and she simply said, “I don’t care what happens to me. As long as you’re safe, I'm willing to do anything in the world. You might not trust me right now, but believe me, my words are true. And I'm going to show it tomorrow.” I hadn’t known how to respond when she was being that open with her thoughts. I should have said something, anything, but I didn't. I couldn't find the right words to say, and thinking about it now, I guess it wouldn't have ma
My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers BEGINNING OF END
“So, when are we going to tell the other about what is going on in the family?” I asked the two brothers who still looked conflicted. “If mom confesses tomorrow, their life will be in danger too. If Alaric finds out, he will take it out on whoever he finds.” Caspian and Lucas shared a secret look but told us nothing about it. I was sitting at the kitchen island, my fingers were wrapped around the cool ceramic of my untouched water glass. While, my mind was elsewhere—spinning, twisting, trying to make sense of everything we were about to do. But worse were the fears associated with our every move. That was the reason I wasn't speaking much because I was afraid my fears and what-ifs would slip out mistakenly in normal conversations. And I knew it would only damper their mood, so I heard them instead and tried to be positive about our little mission. “She's right. At this point I think we need to tell the others,” Dev said, stirring a simmering pot of pasta sauce. “This morning t
My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers ASSIGNMENTS
The room was much quieter after my mom had left. It had been more than an hour since she was gone. Yet, the heavy air of her decision lingered in the room that surrounded us, entering my brain through my nostrils. I couldn't stop thinking about it because it felt like an invisible force that had a huge surprise for everyone in the house. I still wasn’t sure if I believed her—if I could afford to believe her. I didn't know where I stood with her; sometimes, I had been acting like the best daughter in the world, while other times I felt as if she was my biggest enemy. I couldn't figure out how to act around her. Even though she had agreed to confess and that was ‘something not to look over’ according to Caspian, I couldn't bring myself to trust her completely. I knew I could have trusted her more when she told Derek the truth, but I couldn't help but think it was one of her other elaborate plans. “A woman can get anything if she wants it enough... anything.” Her words from years
My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers MOTHER AND DAUGHTER
“My brothers are crazy,” Caspian followed after when my eyes found his. “They have done some of the wildest things on the planet, and don't even let me start with Leo. He's the definition of cringe and intrusive thoughts.” “Yeah, that I know,” I agreed with him about Leo, because he had done some of the wildest things. However, after Ian disappeared on his birthday, Leo got a little serious about the things around him. “There's a lot more.” The way he said that made me think about what he meant by it. There was an undertone of some sort that I couldn't place, but it wasn't anything positive. The way he said that, it felt darker and chilling. “Well, I'd love to know more about you brothers than,” I said, hoping he would get the hint and will talk about himself then. ‘What are you trying to do?’ My brain questioned and I stopped myself from continuing, realizing that I was flirting with him. “You got time,” he said taking a seat on my bed and looked at the famed picture of me with
My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers DRIVEWAY
The air outside was cold and comforting, just walking outside through the entrance made me feel much at loose than I had been the whole day. A soft breeze carried the faint scent of the forest that surrounded the Salvatores’ estate, and moisture that brought me relief. The sky was covered with dark clouds and looked like it was going to rain soon. I was almost waiting for the rain, hoping to see the forest come to live. I was walking beside Caspian. I could feel the tension from the meeting still sitting heavily on Caspian's shoulders. Lucas was following closely behind us, his brows were still furrowed in deep thought, while Dev walked a few steps in front of us with Matthew. As we reached the driveway, Matthew paused. His shiny black Mercedes was waiting for him, the driver was inside. Matthew turned to face us, his demeanour was as calm and professional as ever. He had the same aura around him that at the beginning, I saw around Caspian. “I’ll wait for your call,” he said, his
My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers MATTHEW
Caspian’s office had turned into the Salvatore family's war room over the past few weeks. It was a room that once felt intimidating—lined with tall bookshelves, mahogany furniture, dark leather chairs, and the history it contained of me and Caspian. Now, it was a place where heavy discussions were taking place, to reach decisions that could alter the family’s fate. I was sitting in the corner of the room, feeling like an intruder in their world of business and law. Yet, as I watched Lucas and Caspian argue over the papers spread across the desk, I realized I wasn’t exactly an outsider anymore. I was part of the mess, whether I liked it or not.Matthew, the Salvatores’ lawyer, sat across from me. He was calm and collected despite the storm brewing in the room, trying to hear both sides. His neatly pressed suit and calm demeanour gave him an air of professionalism that felt out of place amidst the storm of words. Dev was pacing near the window, his hands were shoved deep into his po
