"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: -

"You can't take all of us, sweetheart." Valen's voice is smooth, teasing, but the way his fingers brush against my hip isn't playful. It's testing. Behind me, Fennec chuckles, his breath warm as he leans in, his lips barely ghosting the shell of my ear. "She could try." His voice dips lower, dragging heat down my spine. "I'd love to watch her try." ------------------------------- Soraya Cordova was never meant to survive. Stolen as a child and discarded as a mistake, she was given a second chance when the Cordovas adopted her into a life of wealth, secrets, and silent wars. But when her parents are declared dead and the world turns against her found family, she realizes survival is no longer enough, she needs to fight. Raised as assassins, her adoptive brothers have spent years keeping her in the dark, but now? Now, she's in the center of the storm. Wanted by the government. Hunted by the man who created her. And trapped in a dangerous game of love, loyalty, and lies with the only people who have ever mattered. Because in their world, trust is a weapon. Not all love stories are gentle. Some are jagged at the edges, built on shadows and sins, tangled in pasts too dark to escape. White Lies is one of those stories. It's about the things we do to survive, the lies we tell to protect, and the love that thrives even in the darkest corners. Read at your own risk.
