The bond she formed with her step-brother was instant and unbreakable, the two becoming inseparable from the moment they met. However, there was something different about her brother, a peculiar air of mystery that clung to him.

Yet, beneath the surface of her brother's deafening silence, lurked a dangerous and volatile nature.

"You disappeared. You chose another life, one where you abdicated from the role of being a big brother; the same big brother that was the only father figure I had in my life. I hope you burn, the same way he did" Life has never been easy in the Antonelli household. Constantly on the move due to uprising family issues, people get lost. In large families, people get lost. Loud crowds, barely any food, and sharing clothes, is just the bare minimum. Growing up in Russia, was a completely different story. The second the Antonelli's stepped in to the states, it was a whole other world. Going from poor, absent parents, to the rich lifestyle with only her brothers to show some form of guidance, is not what is expected. Least of all, is boarding school. Only a few years after being accustomed to the states, her eldest brothers are gone. No trace, no note, nothing. Only a message in the form of her fourth eldest brother, whom has now become her guardian, that she is to go to an elite boarding school. Only now, the trio of big brothers are back in town, and demanding that she comes home. Demanding her, Harlow, to return to the little girl they left, 7 years ago. It isn't that easy though, adjusting to living under the roof of a brother that chose to leave the second he could. But, who can blame them, when the lifestyle they came from, was not flush with money. Only, you can blame them. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Formally known as Athlete B Started: 23.10.25 Finished: -
