The Lombardi family is the most notorious group in the crime world. They rule both the American and Italian mafias and have many others bowing at their feet. Lombardis show no mercy to anyone who gets in their way. Alina is just shy of 4 years old, but her short life has been a living nightmare, full of pain and suffering. She is the unwanted daughter of the Russian Bratva, the Ivanovs. Alina was sent to the States shortly after birth to be "raised" by her older brothers. But she's nothing more than a burden to them, right? Though seemingly impossible, one day, Alina escapes and unknowingly falls right into the hands of her enemy, the Lombardi family. Little did they know who exactly had just changed their lives forever. For the better? Or for the worse... ---- "Brothers," I point to the boys. "Mommy," I grab her hand. "Daddy," I reach for his, but I'm lifted off the ground instead and pulled into his warm embrace. "And our little Allie." This is my family. ---- [WARNING] Contains - mature content, bad language, abuse, and other violent behaviors ---- Recommended 15+

Livia Ximena Di Vittorio was the child that wasn't taken. She was the one who was left after her mother packed up and left with her four brothers leaving her with her father and a whole lot of responsibilities. She now was the heir to the Italian Mafia, a role that should have gone to her older brother but it was a role that had been placed on her shoulders since she was a year old. Livia was fine with her life, after all it was all that she remembered but what happens when the mother that had left her seventeen years ago shows back up, bringing along the brothers she doesn't remember as well as her new step family. There is someone coming after her family and as heir it's Livia's duty to take care of it. Even if that means working with someone she isn't so fond of.
