When my mother died, I thought I was alone in the world. I never expected to find out she'd been hiding something-an entire family. A father I never knew. Brothers I've never met. All of them part of a dangerous mafia I was never supposed to find. Curiosity pulled me to them. Fear made me run. But now they know I exist-and the mafia doesn't let go of what's theirs.

Aurora's life had always been about survival, each day a quiet battle against fear and pain. When her stepfather was finally arrested, she thought the fight was over. But leaving one dangerous world meant stepping into another-one she didn't fully understand. Now, she's living with seven older brothers she barely knows, their lives a tangle of secrets and shadows they never speak of. Their house is loud, protective, and filled with rules she's afraid to break. For Aurora, it's a new kind of survival. For her brothers, it's a chance to keep her safe-no matter what it takes.

11-year-old Calliope has been in countless foster homes and knows how to push people away and protect herself. She's angry, defensive, and always ready to fight. But the McCalls are different-they're strict but gentle, and they don't tolerate her cruelty or self-harm. In their country home in Montana, structure is everything. But when she lashes out, the foster fathers warning isn't empty: "You break the rules, you face the consequences." Calliope has to learn that being held accountable isn't the same as being punished by someone who wants to hurt her. *Will have corporal punishment as well as mouth soaping etc* *Will have chapters and parts describing her abusive past, trigger warnings will be noted*

Nine-year-old Nelly has spent her life being shuffled from one foster home to the next, her fragile heart and quiet spirit crushed under the weight of neglect and abuse. Small for her age and often overlooked, she's learned to survive by keeping her head down and her words even fewer. But when the police storm her foster home and take her into custody, Nelly's world is turned upside down. At the station, she learns something she never expected-she has a family. A father and five older brothers, none of whom she's ever met. Whisked into a world of wealth and mystery, Nelly is thrust into a life she doesn't understand. Her father, Damian, is cold and commanding, her brothers a whirlwind of personalities, from kind and caring to distant and brash. But underneath the surface, this family holds secrets of their own-secrets about their dangerous world and how far they'll go to protect the little sister they never knew they had. Nelly's quiet resilience might be the only thing that can bridge the gap between her broken past and a future she's too scared to believe in.

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. Yet somehow... they saved me. Not all at once. Not perfectly. But piece by piece, they pulled me out of the dark. This is the story of before them, and after. Of everything I lost. 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." Almost-the word that's followed Aurora like a shadow her whole life. She almost felt safe. She almost had a real family. She almost escaped the pain. She almost gave up. After years of silent suffering at the hands of those meant to protect her, she's finally free. She's shipped off to live with the only blood she has left: 7 older brothers she doesn't remember-hardened by violence, secrets, and a name feared in the underworld. What she doesn't know? They're part of the mafia. What they don't know? How to love her. Will they ever accept her as their sister? Or will she be just another casualty in their broken world? ∧,,,∧ ~ ┏━━━━━━━━┓ ( ̳• · • ̳) ~ ♡Best Rankings Had♡ / づ ~ ┗━━━━━━━━┛ #1 almost #1 abusive content #1 sisters and brothers #1 underage drug use #1 drugs #1 older brothers #1 ptsd awareness #1 hated #1 alcoholism #1 russo #1 weapon #1 bullying awarness #3 mafia princess #4 ptsd #5 mafia #5 family #5 mafia brothers #9 aurora #12 love
