My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers JENNY'S POV: Part 4
“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

When I stepped into his room, Derek was seated by the window with an open book in his hands. He looked healthier and more cheerful than before; the colour was returning to his face. But there was a hint of heaviness in his expression, a lilting shadow that lingered even in the soft light streaming through the glass window. “Derek,” I called his name, and he looked up when he heard my voice. His guarded gaze turned soft and he smiled at me. “Jenny,” he said with such tenderness that I had to control my sobs from breaking free. I didn't deserve his love and care. I never did. Yet, I couldn't help but let it engulf me. “You are late, I was waiting for a very long time.” “I am sorry,” I apologized hesitantly, standing at the edge of the room. My heart was pounding so loudly that I was sure he could hear it from where he was sitting. “I... I just had to take care of something and there was traffic on the way.” He laughed, “You took it seriously, I was kidding. Anyway, come here and le

Jenny’s face was the first thing I noticed as Lucas and I entered the hospital corridor. She was rushing toward the exit with her head down. But for a second, as we crossed each other, I was able to see her face streaked with tears and wondered what happened. Her shoulders were hunched as if the weight of the world rested on them. And she looked hopeless and defeated. She didn’t even notice us as she passed by the entrance lobby. We were just a few steps away, entering from the door next to the exit from where she left. For the most part, her head was down, and she was clutching her purse tightly, desperate to leave everything behind. “Jenny?” Lucas called after her, but she didn’t stop or look behind to check. I wondered if she heard him at all. Lucas turned to me and asked, “That's her right? That's Jenny.” I looked at Lucas, nodding my head, and he returned the confused look he might have seen on my face. As we watched her—through the glass door—going towards the parking lo

The backyard was quiet, except for the occasional rustling of leaves under the gentle breeze. I was crouching beside the small vegetable patch, absentmindedly plucking away the weeds sprouting between the growing tomato plants. The task was simple and repetitive—exactly what I needed to keep myself distracted because my thoughts were anything but simple. The closer we got to the end, the more I started to worry about the whole thing blowing up on our faces. My fears threatened to take over my thoughts, and I wasn't able to push them away. I was anxious every second. Maybe it was because somewhere deep down I had accepted that we were going to fail, even before the trials. Things were going way too smoothly, and the way Lucas found the evidence against Alaric, I wasn't able to assure myself that it could be so easy. “Nothing has happened, and nothing will happen,” I repeated the words Dev had told me the night before when he saw me crying in the kitchen. “Nothing has happened, and
Last Updated : 2025-01-26My 7 Deadly Stepbrothers FALLING
I wiped my eyes, and for a moment, neither of us said anything. The silence that settled between us wasn’t uncomfortable, though. It was… comforting. And standing next to him, with his hand on my arms, I felt safe. I wanted to be like that forever, but I pushed that thought as soon as it came. ‘Don't do this to me, please!’ I told myself, tightening my grip on his hands. ‘You can't fall for him, not now. You can't be in love when you aren't even sure about your future. Think practically.’ “You’ve been spending a lot of time out here lately,” he said, his tone was lighter now. He was trying to cheer me up, I could feel it in my heart even before he started. “Are you planning to become a full-time gardener or something?” I laughed, the sound surprised even me because I already knew what he was doing, yet the way he said it was somewhat funny. It's weird to say it out loud, but I started to pick up on a few things or habits of his. I didn't like it, mostly because of what it might
Last Updated : 2025-01-26My 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

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 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 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
