Help Me, Stepbrothers, For I Have Sinned 1-The Mafia Boss Is My Stepbrother
Lavender:"I'll need a minute to order," I told the waitress walking my way. She nodded and went back behind the counter to chat with another guy in the back. I had finished my twelve-hour nursing shift when I packed my bags to travel to this city. I was always rushing to stay with my mom after enduring my uncle’s cruelty.I had turned nineteen a week ago and had been working nonstop as a nurse since then. They drained me completely in one week, but at least I was able to earn something.My thoughts were briefly interrupted as the door burst open like someone was in an emergency, and a tall man in a black suit and glasses barged in.I shifted in my seat, avoiding direct eye contact.He had a sharp jawline with a bit of a beard and mustache. His high cheekbones were pretty much all I could focus on. He walked ahead and took the seat next to the window across from my table.There was something about his presence that radiated darkness, but I avoided thinking too much about it.I had my

Lavender:“What is wrong with you?” my mother complained once we entered the house, and I closed the door like it was an emergency.I was holding the cake in my hand that I had brought earlier, but the excitement of celebrating my birthday had faded now.“Mom, you need to listen to me.” I couldn’t believe we made it to the house without me telling her about her new husband.I had no clue she was getting married, and I would have been happier had it not been to someone who was a fricking boss’s father.“What is it?” My mom rolled her eyes, putting her purse down. I looked around and saw the mess. There were boxes in every corner and disposable plates and cups lying around.“You should not marry this man.” The minute I pointed at her bag, I watched darkness take over her eyes.She looked angry right from the start.“What did you say? Huh! You want me to live my life without a man? Do I not deserve happiness?” My mother’s tantrum wasn’t new. She would always lose it with me."I'm not say

Lavender:"Oh, that is my umm—daughter. She is Lavender," my mother's smile instantly faded when reminded of my existence. I hated how every time she looked at me, it felt like her soul left her body. I understood her trauma, but I was just caught in the middle. I didn’t want to cause her any more stress.That’s why I stayed with her, even when I wanted to run away, so she could be at peace. But her living conditions didn’t allow me to leave her when she needed me the most.After her mental struggles, my mother wasn’t able to keep a job. My sisters only worked part-time jobs that could barely cover their own expenses.So, I had to step up.From a young age, as early as 15, I’d been doing odd jobs, side gigs, and online freelancing to help my mother live the life she had always dreamed of.I thought it would be enough to make up for my father’s crime against an innocent woman.But today, she let me down. This was too much for me."Lavender, she's the one who doesn’t have a father, righ

Lavender:I had quickly stepped back from him, fixing my posture to show him obedience. "I live with my uncle every few months. It's an agreement between my mom and my uncle."I made up an excuse to leave, rubbing my hands nervously and keeping my eyes down."But you just came back. Your mom told me about the agreement and everything. So don't think I don’t know," he had a strange calmness to his tone—both fake and real at the same time, if that made any sense."Umm! I’ll just go and stay with him a little longer. I don’t think I’ll get the nursing job here anyway," I continued making up another lie. I had already been asked to start working at a private hospital as one of the housing nurses. "You don’t have to worry about that either." He pulled his arms back and clasped his hands behind him, standing tall at 6 feet 3 inches."Please let me go. I swear I won’t tell a soul." That was it—I had to come clean and tell him I was too scared to stay here.He tilted his head, his handsome f

Lavender:Shaking and panting, I forced my body up and stepped out from behind the couch. There was no point in hiding and provoking him.Now that I could see the whole scene before my eyes, I wanted to gag and run out of the room. But I couldn't—he wouldn’t let me.He was sitting on the couch, one arm stretched over the backrest while the other—his bloodied hand—held a cigar.A man was dying before him, yet it didn’t seem to affect him.Nothing did.Not even the fact that his once-white shirt had turned red from the man’s blood.It was clear—he was the reason behind the man's condition."Sit." He moved his outstretched arm to pat the seat beside him.I hesitated before sitting down, keeping a safe distance from him. But the smell of blood mixed with the smoke from his cigar made me nauseous.I was already weak from the blood transfusion, and this sight was only adding to my anxiety."This man tried to run away from me," Nikon said in the calmest, most chilling tone. "See what happene

Lavender:I fell asleep dreaming about the next time I’d exchange emails with Eston–the famous model I had a crush on. They were mostly about work, but sometimes he would flirt a little, and that would be enough for me to have dreams about him for weeks afterward.But then, my dreams were interrupted by the sunlight streaming through the window with no curtains. I covered my eyes and shifted in bed until I realized where I was.I woke up in a bad mood, recalling the events of the night and feeling a deep sense of dread.The bathroom in the attic was smaller than a storage closet, but I liked having a bathroom in my room. There was no warm water in the shower, so I had to dance under the cold water miserably.I had thrifted a black tie-shoulder smock floral white midi dress that fit my body perfectly. It was something I frequently did—visiting a thrift store whenever I saved enough money. I matched it with a black cardigan sweater, a tote bag, and beige suede ankle-strap pumps.I braid

Lavender:My heart had skipped a beat, and the world had tilted beneath my feet. I swear, I stared at him for a good few minutes, even though they noticed.“You good? You look like you just saw a ghost,” Nikon snapped his fingers in front of my face, snapping me back to the present.I nodded, feeling paralyzed in my body.“I wasn’t eavesdropping—I was asked by my mom to bring everyone for breakfast,” thank goodness my brain worked at the right moment, and I came up with an excuse. Even if they didn’t believe me, I had done my part.My head was spinning, and my thoughts were all over the place.I couldn’t even look back at Easton without realizing I had been in the dark about literally everything.The nice, good guy, who couldn’t stand to see anyone in pain, was talking about my grave just a minute ago.He was so fake—all his songs and interviews, all his runway walks where he acted all shy yet sexy—it was all a fake persona. It has to be."Anyway, this is Lavender, she’s our nineteen-

Lavender:“I was walking by the hallway and heard the buzzing noise.” Igor had brought the devil upstairs. And ever since he stormed up, I had been glued to the wall in the corner.Nikon was in a suit, probably ready to head out for his ‘work,’ but now he was standing by the bed, hands on his waist, and a very upset look on his face.Igor, however, was leaning against the wall by the window, amusement in his eyes as if he was about to be entertained.“Firstly,” Nikon stretched his neck, turning his attention to his brother, “you should not be in your stepsister’s room. And secondly, I don’t care what you’ve been doing in your life, but now that you’re living here, I will not tolerate such behavior.”That was his warning to me.“But I—,” I only tried to speak when he hushed me down.“Hush! Don’t talk when I don’t ask you to. Go grab your fucking bag and go to your job,” he hissed at me, silencing me with the finger he pointed at me.He looked so angry with me."I will discard this blas

Christine:“And then—and then they kicked us out,” Normani had been crying on the phone with me for about an hour. I’d already heard her story and everything twice. She would finish it, and then start it all over again.“Make sure you do it right this time,” I kicked the nail artist as a warning not to mess up. Last time, she ruined my toenails. This time, I wanted my pedicure to be perfect—because I was going on a date with Easton.He had been blowing up my phone nonstop. I’d studied Levi’s texts like it was a coursebook. I noticed she always replied coldly, letting him do the chasing and begging most of the time.It was like she’d trained herself to act this way so he would stay more obsessed with her than she was with him.And it seemed like Easton was fascinated with her.‘With me!’ I corrected myself as I giggled.Ugh! But now I had to deal with this crying girl on the phone.“Hmm. That’s sad. But you should’ve been more careful. This is a world full of technology. Didn’t you kno

Lavender:“Lavender! You don’t forgive us?” my mother had knelt down in front of me, demanding that I speak with her.But I couldn’t even look at her.“So what would it take for her to accept her mother’s apology? Who, by the way, didn’t do anything wrong. She knows both her daughters—Lavender has always lied to her and caused her trouble. So when Normani said something, of course Sumi believed her,” Mister Volkov hissed at me while I turned my head to the other side.I wanted to talk to my mother, but not in front of anyone.And somehow, Igor noticed it.“Maybe we should give them some space,” he suggested, and Easton looked over at me.“I was about to say that,” Easton muttered under his breath. Nikon searched my face for a reaction—he always did that. Always trying to read something from everyone’s expressions.After a moment, he finally nodded and motioned for his father and Sabrina to leave us alone. However, my mother held onto Sabrina’s hand and stepped in after the others had

Lavender:Mister Volkov stayed seated, his eyes fixed on the ground. Sabrina kept inching one step closer to the door, looking for an excuse to leave.“Nobody is leaving,” Nikon said when he must have noticed his father uncross his leg, ready to get up.“What do you want us to do then?” Mister Volkov asked Nikon.“Apologize?” Nikon gave him a look, getting up slowly and walking over to me. He was in his black suit like always, his shoes shining so brightly that I could see my reflection in them as he stopped right in front of me.I kept my head down, but the moment his finger touched my chin, I gave in to the pressure and looked up.With a gentle touch, he ran his thumb over the mark on my chin and then brushed his fingers over my bruised cheek.“You all are going to apologize to her,” his eyes narrowed at the sight of the wounds on my face. He was so sharply observant, noticing every single injury.“Fine, I’m sorry,” Mister Volkov said with a shrug.Nikon pulled his hand back and sta

Lavender:Igor had been a great help. But I wouldn’t base my opinion of him on just this one incident. People around me had a tendency to change like the weather in no time.He made sure to hold my hand to help me walk without falling to my knees as we headed to the living room.I didn’t want to go anywhere with them. The issue should have been resolved once they punished me. Or were they planning on punishing me every few hours?I didn’t understand the purpose behind being presented before Nikon now.Standing in the living room with my sister smirking at me was so hard to swallow. Igor had walked me in and sat me down on a sofa facing everyone. Easton stayed beside me the whole time.Sabrina was visibly smirking. I had been informed that Valerie claimed to be an eyewitness and basically told the same story as Normani.Normani was sitting on a couch with my mother, who was constantly checking on her. Now that Normani had cleaned up, I noticed my wounds were much worse than hers. Yet m

Lavender:Everything happened so fast that I couldn’t even react properly. I couldn’t defend myself. But even if time were reversed and I got another chance, I still wouldn’t be able to protect myself against such big and dangerous men attacking me.I woke up in Igor’s bedroom, his soft mattress bringing a little comfort to my wounds. I had bandages everywhere, and some bruises were left uncovered but had been treated well.The door opened—this time, it wasn’t the doctors or nurses, but Easton. I immediately held onto my blanket and pulled it over my chest.“Lavender!” He tried his best to sound like he was on my side, but right then, I didn’t want him around me.“Where is Igor?” I don’t know why his name slipped from my lips like that, but the moment it did, Igor stormed out from behind Easton.He rushed past his brother to get to me first.I might have still been in a daze, but I remembered the arms that saved me.If Igor hadn’t shown up when he did, I wouldn’t be alive now.“What i

Igor:“Valerie—why did you lie in there?” After Valerie gave her statement, I couldn’t sit in the same living room. The others celebrated like it was suddenly just about proving Lavender wrong.“I didn’t,” Valerie stopped right when she was near her car. “I didn’t like how you doubted my words back in there. Why did you bring me here if you didn’t even believe what I said?” She started raising her voice after she realized I really was doubting her.“Valerie—” I grimaced, grinding my teeth because I just had a bad feeling.“Why is it so hard for you to believe Lavender could do something bad?” she asked me, putting her body weight on one leg.“It doesn’t matter, Valerie. The thing is that them beating her up is still assault.” I raised my voice and clenched my fists, which she noticed.I knew she would be offended now.“So first, it was that she didn’t lie to go to the club where her stepsister got attacked because of her. And now that it’s confirmed it really was her, she’s the victim

Igor:“What’s going on in your manor?” Valerie asked, jogging to keep up with me. “Let me be honest with you—ever since this new family moved in, it’s been one issue after another. And that girl Lavender... now I get why everyone dislikes her. She brings trouble wherever she goes. Remember Bora Island?”Valerie was gossiping like we weren’t dealing with someone who had just been brutally beaten—like Lavender’s pain didn’t matter.And yet, I couldn’t help wondering... why did this affect me so much?It’s not like I hadn’t seen worse.Since I was a kid, I’d grown up surrounded by torture and murder. Hell, I’d committed my fair share too.So why did she, the girl I thought I’d care least about, suddenly feel so important to me?“Valerie, it’s this perception people have of her—that she’s alone, that no one will stand up for her. That’s why they feel entitled to violate her rights,” I told her as we reached the main entrance. “At Bora, Raymond thought she had no one, so he attacked her. S

Igor:I took her to my own bedroom, all while my father kept calling after me. Once inside my wing, I sat her down on the bed and noticed how she refused to let go of my shirt.“Hey, hey,” I said softly, placing my fingers gently under her chin to make her look up.She wasn’t fully aware. I could tell. She was bleeding from her head too. They had punched and hit her without caring where they struck.I had a bad feeling she had a concussion.“I’m here,” I reminded her, to let her know I wouldn’t hurt her.There was no way—absolutely no way—Lavender got Normani assaulted. If anything, it had to be the other way around. Did they think we were stupid?“Calm down, you’re safe,” I repeated gently, taking out my handkerchief to clean her eyes.The blood from her forehead had run down into them. As I cleaned her face, she finally let go of my shirt and sat there, her eyes staring into nothing.She would start crying uncontrollably, then suddenly go numb.“I’ve called the doctors and nurses. T

Igor:“Sure, I’ll meet you tomorrow then,” I tried to hang up the call with Valerie for the fifth time, but she was in a great mood. She wouldn’t stop talking or let me end the call.“Wait, wait—I’m not done yet,” she almost yelled, causing me to sigh quietly as I arrived home.“Okay, what else?” I sighed, getting out of the car.“Ohhh! I was at a club tonight and some girl went crazy,” she laughed. Of course she did. Valerie loved a good gossip. But I didn’t know what made her think I wanted to hear her talk about some drama.I wasn’t really the type to talk a lot or listen to people. I liked peace and quiet.“Oh,” I replied because I had to, or else she would complain that I don’t listen to her.“And then—she started hitting her boyfriend when she caught him cheating on her. He took it for a while before he started hitting her back and oh my God, the drama—she started crying. Like, girl! If you can’t take hits, don’t hit someone either. Like come on—,” she laughed loudly, making me
