"I didn't know the meaning of family until I came here" ~~~ Jay (Jason) Romero was taken away from his father and 5 older brothers when he was only 3 years old. He grew up not knowing about his family outside of his neglectful mother who loved alcohol, and occasionally drugs, more than her youngest son. Now 13 years later when his mom dies due to drunk driving, he is being put into the care of his father. Just how will that turn out? Will Jay be able to handle having a family now that will do whatever it takes for each other? How will Jay cope with having new siblings who seem a bit protective of him? How far is Jay willing to go for his newfound family? And how will his family deal with their youngest son and brother coming back home with no fucks left to give? Not that they wouldn't expect nothing less. After all, he's a Romero ~~~ *Trying to break some clichés* A/N: lets see if I can pull off writing about a male main character. Eh it's worth a try I guess. This is semi original? Lots of stories on Wattpad are about a girl and her older brothers, why not try boy and his brothers? On hold until further notice

For years, Kaden and West have survived on their own. No safety net. No home. No family to fall back on. Only the constant fight for money, shelter, and the right to exist. They were torn away once-lost in the chaos of a night no one talks about. Now, fate is pulling them back to the family they were never meant to find again. But broken pieces don't always fit back together the way they once did. Reunion promises hope, healing, and the chance to finally belong. Yet old wounds run deep, and the brothers they return to are no longer the boys they remember. Trust is fragile. Loyalty is tested. And forgiveness comes at a cost. Because while the family struggles to rebuild, something dark is watching. Waiting. Kaden and West's return has awakened an enemy who would rather see the family shattered than whole. Is a happy reunion even possible after everything that was lost? Or will the brothers be forced to face a new trial-one that could destroy them all? Some pieces were never meant to come back. And some truths are more dangerous than being broken.

While his brothers fight to hold on, he dreams of a way out. Bound by blood, divided by choices, each brother fights his own battle. But in a world built on power, betrayal, and violence, one truth remains: the past never stays buried. And if they don't find a way to stand together, what little they have left may be lost forever.

I thought I knew who I was. Gabriel Alvarez. Twenty. Son of a poor family in Albuquerque. Big brother. Protector. Future cop. My life had been built on long nights of work, endless study, and the unshakable promise that one day I'd wear a badge strong enough to keep my family safe. But then the threads started unraveling. Whispers of a world I wasn't meant to see. Names spoken like curses. The Caruso family. The Sicilian Mafia. Everyone in the city knew they ruled from the shadows. What no one knew, what I could never have imagined, was that I carry their blood. I am the brother they lost fifteen years ago. Every step I take now feels like a betrayal. To the family who raised me, who trust me with their lives. To myself, who swore I would fight men like the Carusos. But when the moment comes, when the truth tears everything apart, I don't know which side I'll stand on. The law I've devoted my life to... or the brothers who claim me as their own?

Raised to be holy. Born into something far more dangerous. Seventeen year old, Evienne Ellery spent her life preparing for heaven. Sent away to a secluded boarding school in the Swiss Alps by distant, unfeeling adoptive parents, she was raised by nuns and priests to be obedient, submissive and small. Behind stone chapels and cold classrooms, Evienne learned early that love was conditional, punishment was holy, and suffering was something to be endured quietly Her future was simple: be good, be faithful, and one day do her duty-marry a man who would secure her family's interests. Her life was planned. Controlled. Perfect. Until it wasn't. When everything she knows collapses, Evienne is torn from the only world she has ever known and sent to live with her biological family-six brothers who are loud, vulgar, violent, and unapologetically criminal. They don't pray. They don't obey. And they certainly don't believe in God the way she was taught. They believe in blood. With them, she learns the truth of who she really is: The lost princess of one of the most powerful mafia families in the world. Her brothers have been searching for her for years, and now that they've found her, they refuse to lose her again. In their world of power, crime, and betrayals, Evienne learns that love doesn't always look gentle-and protection often comes with a body count. But as old family feuds resurface, enemies close in, and the past she was hidden from begins to reach for her, Evienne is forced to confront an impossible question: What happens when the people you love will never be welcome in heaven-and you're no longer sure you want to go without them?
