Orphaned at a very young age, Isabella grew up in a grand mansion with her five older brothers. From the start, they took on the role of teaching her everything she needed to know-how to speak, behave, and survive-drawing from their own childhood experiences. Yet their lessons were often harsh, cold, and strict, leaving Isabella feeling neglected and fearful. The younger brothers teased and tormented her, reporting every misstep to the older ones, who scolded her sharply. At first, she believed they hated her. But as she grew, Isabella began to understand that her brothers were themselves misunderstood and burdened by responsibility. Through fear, teasing, and strict guidance, she slowly learned to see their hearts. In the end, their relationship was far from perfect, but a quiet, mutual understanding-and even happiness-emerged from the cracks of their cold façades.

My name's Aurora. Aurora Russo. And for a long time, I thought pain was normal. That love came with bruises. Then they happened- strangers who are my brothers. Loud. Cold. Angry.

And everything I'm still trying to find. ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ❀ *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧ *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧ Nikita Gill once said, "The saddest word in the whole wide world is the word almost."

His jaw tenses, but he doesn't interrupt. "So no," I continue, voice sharp, "I don't need a guard. I don't need someone to yell at me like that's supposed to prove how much they care. I've had enough of that already."
