Framed as a Rapist by My Own Family Chapter 02 Faked Pity and True Grudge

then, an off–road vehicle rolled to a halt amid the chaos.

The crowd instantly parted to clear a wide path the moment they spotted Finn behind the wheel.

He stepped out with unhurried, poised strides.

“Dad, Mom, Sarah, do not be harsh with Ethan,” he said casually.

Dad and Mom hurried over to crowd around him, their faces soft with doting fondness.

They said, “Finn, your department keeps you swamped with work, so we told you there was no need to rush over. Seeing such a filthy, ugly scene might dredge up all the grief you’ve carried over Chloe.”

Sarah slipped an arm affectionately through his.

“Exactly. What if Ethan flies into another jealous rage and tries to hurt you? We would never forgive ourselves.”

The tender, precious care they lavished on Finn carved a raw ache straight through my chest.

Before Finn joined the Voss family, I had once been the one wrapped in that same warmth and devotion.

Years ago, while I was on a mission, armed raiders abducted the entire Voss family to force me into taking my own life.

Dad had taken five rounds to shield me, and his heart nearly ruptured and almost died.

Mom, always timid by nature, had thrown herself at the kidnappers, begging them to take her life in place

of mine.

They had sworn I was their most cherished child and that they would guard me for the rest of my days.

When I had suffered organ failure and needed a transplant, Sarah had volunteered her kidney without a single moment’s hesitation.

She had said she would stand beside me through every hardship, no matter what came our way.

She had even claimed she’d surrender her own life if it meant saving mine.

The memories were warm, but reality was brutal and cold.

While everyone’s gaze drifted away from me, a mob of enraged onlookers charged forward and pinned me flat to the ground.

They bludgeoned my teeth loose with steel crowbars, then crushed both my legs beneath their boots.

I felt like being torn into pieces.

Agony tore through every part of my body. Cold sweat soaked me completely, and I could not even scream.

“Still running your lying mouth? We’ll teach you to stop slandering Chief Finn!

“You rapist! Let’s castrate you, shall we?”

Air of gleaming metal shears lunged straight for me.

Terror surged through me, and I thrashed wildly to dodge the blade.

However, it sank deep into my thigh. The attacker twisted the shears back and forth, shredding my flesh.

Agony crashed over me until I teetered on the brink of blacking out.

Through blurred vision, F watched Sarah lean shyly against Finn’s chest, her face bright with a sweet smile.

r I let out a ragged, gurgling whimper. Only then did Dad and Mom glance my way, their stares thick with revulsion and irritation.

Finn appeared to finally notice the violence erupting beside us.

He barked a sharp command. “Stop!”

He stepped between the mob and me, steadying my shoulders with an expression of feigned concern.

“Ethan, are you all right?”

Beneath his gentle grip, his fingers dug hard into my fresh wounds, tearing open the gashes even wider.

Waves of searing pain sent my vision swimming. I trembled hard.

He leaned down to murmur a low, malicious laugh only I could hear and said, “Since you’ve dragged yourself back here, sit back and watch closely how I steal your family. You’ll also see how I fuck your wife night after night.”

In the next heartbeat, he stumbled backward with a helpless, wounded look plastered across his face.

“I never meant to hurt you, Ethan. Why would you call me a bastard?” Finn said with a hurt face.

The next second, Dad flew into a rage at once, driving his boot hard into my temple.

My neck snapped, and I crumpled onto the grass without the strength to lift my head.

Dad stamped his leather shoe repeatedly against my groin, grinding into the shattered tissue without mercy.

He said, “You keep trying to harm Finn, again and again!

“He

“He only tried to help you, yet you put on this dying act just to slander his hard–earned reputation!

“Back then, you stole his achievements and enjoyed everything that belonged to him. Now, how dare you try to destroy the future he fought so hard to earn?

“Listen, you bastard. If you turn on Chief Finn one more time, I’ll ship you straight back to Maxine Island to rot like livestock for the rest of your life.”

My penis was destroyed. Blood soaked through my trousers, pooling into a dark, sticky puddle beneath me.

My consciousness slipped in and out of focus, and I was dying.

Sakh rushed forward to tug Dad’s arm, her eyes glistening with manufactured pity.

She said, “Dad, Ethan is still your son. Do not strike him any further.”

Dad clenched his teeth, looking as if he wanted to cut me into pieces. “He never deserves to be my son

“There has only ever been one true son of the Voss family, and that is Finn.”
