In a family shaped by shadows, her light might be their only hope - or their greatest weakness. When Elara's mother marries into the infamous Calviero family, her world changes overnight. At just fifteen, she's thrust into a dangerous realm ruled by her stepfather and seven lethal stepbrothers, each with a fierce role in the mafia empire. Elara stands out - not just for her striking platinum hair and mesmerizing heterochromia, but for her compassionate heart and unwavering strength. A talented figure skater, she moves with grace on the ice but must learn to navigate a far more perilous stage at home. Her brothers are wary at first - hardened by years of violence and betrayal - but slowly, their fierce loyalty begins to extend to her. As old rivalries reignite and hidden threats emerge, Elara must confront the darkness lurking not only within her family but also within herself. And when whispers of a long-buried secret begin to surface, everything Elara thought she knew about her past - and her future - comes into question. In a world where trust means the difference between life and death, Elara's kindness is both her greatest strength and her most dangerous vulnerability. The question is: can she survive this world without losing who she truly is?

"You make me want to do things to you." He mumbles, his brown eyes never straying from mine. "What?" I whisper, nervous yet at the same time my heart pounds with excitement and anticipation. "Do you want to know what kind of things?" His low tone matches mine as he brings his face closer and I find myself robbed of speech due to our proximity. Taking my silence as his sign, he continues to lean closer. His lips caress my ear as he says "Things like this." Suddenly I feel something wet and thick being dumped onto my hair, soon the liquid drips down onto my shirt. Is that paint? Blue paint proceeds to slide down onto my shirt and my eyes widen when I hear Caleb howling with laughter. "Caleb fucking Carter!" I bellow and before I know it he breaks into a run, still laughing. ________________ Highest Rankings #1 - projectbadassgirls #1 - humor #8 - badboy

"Nessuno oserà toccarti di nuovo senza perdere le mani, amore," they whispered. (No one will dare touch you again without losing their hands, love.) I felt two hands hold my face with a soft kiss on my forehead. Their rough and large hands a contrast to their gentleness. The comforter over me shuffled as the familiar person brought them up to my chin and tucked me in. "Riposati ora sei al sicuro, bambina," they murmured, stroking my hair. Before I knew it, simply the presence of them reassured me as I felt myself drift off again into a deep sleep. (Rest now, you're safe, baby). ☆ ☆ ☆ 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄 (noun): a state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream.
