Aurelia and Elara - the youngest twins and the only daughters of the De Santis family - were once the heart of their household. Inseparable, gentle, adored. Where one went, the other followed. Their parents cherished them. Their brothers protected them. But everything shattered the night eight-year-old Elara was found bleeding on the floor... and Aurelia stood over her, a knife in her hand. Blamed for a crime she didn't commit, Aurelia was sent away to a strict boarding school for "troubled children." Her parents believed discipline would straighten her out. What they never imagined was the truth - the cruelty hidden behind the school's walls, the sadistic methods used to "teach," and the horrors Aurelia was forced to endure. Now sixteen, after a devastating incident inside that school, Aurelia is brought back to the De Santis mansion. But it's not a homecoming. It's an obligation. A reminder that she is unwanted, distrusted, and viewed as a threat by the very family she once loved. Follow Aurelia as she relearns how to exist in a home that no longer feels like hers. Uncover the truth of what happened that night, what really happened to her within the school, and whether the De Santis family will ever face the truth of what Aurelia had to endure and do to survive. ─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ─── "What should I ache for?

'Blood doesn't always mean loyalty. Sometimes, it just means war.' At sixteen, Kimberly Fallon Alliter has learned that pain is predictable. Assaulted by her stepfather. Abused by her mother. Tormented by her twin, and forgotten by the world, she's spent her life as the family scapegoat-until one night at age eight, when a stranger offered her food, warmth, and something far more dangerous: power. That man was Maxim Volkov, the Pakhan of the Bratva (Don of the Russian mafia). And when he was assassinated seven years later, Kimberly inherited everything. Now, Pakhan/Tsarina/Donna of a ruthless empire, Kimberly hides behind the guise of a bored high schooler. But when she and her twin, Karoline, are called to the principal's office, everything changes: their mother and stepfather are dead, and their long-lost brothers-heirs to the Italian mafia-have come to claim them. Karoline is heartbroken and seeks comfort from her new family. Kimberly is unreadable and distances herself from these men who claim to care. Because while Karoline sees family, Kimberly sees enemies. The Russians and Italians have never been allies... and her brothers don't know the mafia princess standing before them is the enemy they've been trained to eliminate. Blood has been spilled. Lies are unraveling. And Kimberly Volkova is no one's pawn. Started: 25/12/2025 (for the American's: 12/25/2025)

'He hit me, and it felt like a kiss.' Cadence Levana Solace, seventeen years old, the bastard child of the ex-don of the Italian mafia. Born of mistakes and raised by hate, she is now a force to be reckoned with. Growing up with no knowledge of her biological mother, having to deal with the scrutiny of her stepmother and half-brothers, and the abuse of her father, impacts her dearly. Now, at the ripe age of eight, she's being sent away by her family to a boarding school. Due to the reckless endeavors of her fathers late night, drunken research, she is sent off to a boarding school for assassins. Years of torture and assualt leads Cade to become the most feared being in the underworld/mafia and the unofficial Queen of the underworld. Life is going...well enough for Cade when an anonymous tip leads to the school being under investigation and temporarily shut down. Now she's back with the family who sent her away. But here's the thing, my dear readers; I created this book with the romance and couple in mind. Not the family. This book isn't about Cade going back to being a victim who just takes the hits and insults like that's all she can do. No, this book is about her becoming the abuser, about her being hit and hitting back and fucking loving it. About her being choked, thrust into, and fucked without her consent, so she does it back. And she doesn't leave the relationship. Because in this book, pain doesn't mean leaving, it means wanting to bruise everywhere so that the next time they look in the mirror, they see who they belong to written all over their body. This, Dearest readers, is the Tale of Wrath. Book One in the 'Tale Of Sins' Series. All the books in that series can be read as a standalone and are not interconnected, despite having a few easter eggs.
