Luck is just a game of chance - of numbers, and Sevyn has always been counted. ******** SEVYN MARCELIN was never meant to stay in one place. Sevyn is forced back to the United States after her grandmother's passing and into a family that has already moved on without her, a mother who rebuilt her life, a home that feels borrowed, and a world where Sevyn's differences: her looks, her hearing, her customs, and the things she struggles to vocalize force her to be an outsider all over again. **** GRAY WRIGHT has spent his life listening to sound, to silence, to what others miss. Raised between a deaf mother and a hearing father, he understands that some connections don't arrive loudly. They arrive by chance. **** When Sevyn's quiet struggle brings her into Gray's care, their lives intersect in a way that feels less like coincidence and more like fate rolling the dice. Because luck isn't always about winning, it's about surviving long enough for the odds to finally shift. And Sevyn? She's been counting her chances since birth. ******** Content Warnings: This story includes implied sexual misconduct, emotional abuse, family trauma, violence, death, medical themes, disabilities, drugs, alcohol, and sexual themes.

And when those feelings become too much to bear, he tries to take his own life. On the surface, Beverly's different from Everest in every possible way.
