I ran downstairs into the living room, my heart pounding as I found all my brothers gathered around Nefeli. Her eyes were frantic, scanning the room, desperately searching for me. The scream that bastard had let out earlier must have reached her... The moment our eyes met, she practically threw herself at me, wrapping her arms around me so tightly I could barely breathe. I stood frozen for a moment, unsure of what to do. I hugged her back anyway... Even though I had no idea what was going on. "Thank God you're safe" she murmured in my ear, her voice trembling, leaving me even more confused. I glanced at my brothers. They all looked just as lost as I was. Except for Aiden and Alex. They were motioning for me to hold on. "Of course I'm okay, Nefeli. What happened?" I asked, my heart tightening. I hated seeing her like this, so worried and panicked. "I-I heard Alex and Aiden talking in Italian!" she stammered, her eyes wide with panic. "They said something about the Mafia! Are we being threatened by the Mafia?" Her voice cracked, and tears threatened to spill from her brown eyes. The room fell silent for a moment. My brothers exchanged looks, and then, without warning, we all burst into laughter. Nefeli stared at us, completely confused. Cole, finally calming down, wiped his eyes and looked at her with a smile. "Love" he said, his voice smooth, "we're not being threatened by the Mafia." he let the words settle in the air for a second. "We are the Mafia." • • • _______________________________________________________ ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️ Mentions of abuse, violence, harsh language, bad mental health, and light depression!

Clover Marianne Emerson has always been a quiet storm, hiding her fears behind soft smiles and her scars beneath impossible expectations. When tragedy uproots her life, she is thrust into the chaos of her brothers' world-a place of loud voices, sharp edges, and a love she doesn't know how to accept. They are strangers bound by blood, each with their own cracks and shadows. Clover tries to fit herself into their lives, perfect and invisible, but perfection is a fragile thing. As the walls between them start to crumble, so does the mask she's always worn. Follow Clove as she learns to navigate teenage life, sibling rivalry, and her own dreams and as she begins to discover that perfection isn't what binds a family together-it's love, chaos, and everything in between.

Haven Talon is sent to live with her six older brothers. Her trust is her own and her own only and it doesn't help that her brothers are hiding something, something big that has to do with guns and suits.

She's alone and unsure of herself. But far away, there are men who have been searching for her. Men who share her name. Men who are feared by the world. They've spent years looking for the little girl who was taken from them. Now that they've found her, they'll stop at nothing to bring her home. Emilia doesn't know them. She doesn't know the truth. And she has no idea that her life is about to change forever.

"𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐧 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞. 𝐍𝐨𝐰 𝐬𝐡𝐞'𝐬 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐬 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭." ༄༄༄༄༄༄ "She's a fucking liability and you all know it." Damiano snarled, tossing the gun clip on the table. Inwardly a sigh escapes me, here we go again. I couldn't catch a break from him. Why can't they ever just have a normal dinner? Vincenzo squints, almost daring him to repeat himself. "You call her that again, and I swear to fucking God, Damiano-" Damiano didn't bother looking up. "You heard me. She's a weakness, and we can't afford that shit right now, not with the Bravata sniffing up our ass." Vincenzo didn't hesitate as he slammed his hand on the table, and suddenly grabbed the collar of Damiano's shirt, shoving him back into the wall so hard a frame dropped to the floor. "Shut your fucking mouth." He grits through his teeth. Damiano didn't flinch at all but his hands stayed down and his mouth clamped shut. "You forgot who the fuck I am?" Vince growled, deadly and murderous. "You think you're a man because you run your mouth? I don't care, brother or not, but if you come near her with that shit again, I will put you in the fucking ground." Damiano scoffed and turned his head away from Vincenzo's branding gaze in distaste. "If you ever question her blood again, you're gonna see how fucking loyal I am to her over you." ༄༄༄༄༄༄ Valentina Aria De'Luca was only six when she was taken from her family.
