When I was eighteen I died. But it wasn't only me. Right before I was killed I was forced to witness my brothers deaths. They had been protecting me. And their last words to me, before the light left their eyes, was that they wanted me to live. When the bullet hit me I desperately wished for a second chance. When I opened my eyes the next second I found myself in my childhood room. I somehow had regressed time and back at me stared my ten-year-old self through the mirror. But it wasn't the place I wanted to be, not with my father. He was abusive and I didn't plan on going through everything again. Not this time. This time I would find my brothers sooner, and I would protect them and our happy life together. Fate be damned! I am Angelica Romano-Costello and I will take my fate into my own hands.

She was born to wear the crown-until it was ripped from her hands. Born into power, stolen into silence-Viviana Alessandro Romano was the crown jewel of Italy's most feared mafia dynasty. Seventeen years later, the lost princess returns-haunted, scarred, and carrying secrets no one is ready to face. And when bloodlines clash, loyalties shatter, and forbidden love ignites... Even a girl made of fire can burn.

14-year-old Aria is in the foster system and has what most people like to call "an attitude problem." In her eyes, it's not an 'attitude'-it's survival. Sarcasm is her shield, silence is her weapon, and if she rolls her eyes hard enough, maybe no one will notice the way her hands shake when doors slam too loud. She's been with her current foster family for the past five years, and their abuse has been the worst of them all. The kind that hides behind locked doors and perfect smiles for the neighbors. The kind that teaches you not to flinch in public, but never lets your bruises fade in private. ♬⋆.˚ Aria doesn't cry anymore-she learned young that tears only made them angrier. Instead, she grits her teeth, sharpens her tongue, and waits for the day she can get out. Her social workers call her "difficult." Teachers call her "disruptive." But really, she's just a girl with scars people don't bother to see, carrying secrets she's too smart to share. What no one knows -not even Aria- is that the blood running through her veins carries a legacy far darker and more powerful than anything this foster family could imagine. A legacy that comes with 5 brothers who would quite literally burn the world for her

[Short story] When Alvaro D'Cruz was asked about his children, he said he had five. When Ezekiel D'Cruz was asked about his siblings, he said he had five. Alvaro D'Cruz had never looked at his youngest and felt what he should have felt: love. To him, this little girl was blood and flesh, but not his and theirs. He had enemies, rivals, a business empire, and a reputation of not being the most warm person in the room. To him, the only person who had ever mattered was his one true love, his wife who had left him after his sixth kid was born. Did he love his other kids? Check. Did he never hate his wife? Double check. Did he blame the kid? Triple check. His youngest has always hoped that he'll look at her, one day, without any coldness or ignorance and see her. Finally. But Alvaro D'Cruz was legendary in his indifference and the doors to his heart were already slammed shut. The only question remains: Did he ever love her?

The King family had always seemed to have everything-wealth, influence, and a warm, loving home filled with the laughter of seven devoted sons. Yet, in their hearts, Alessandro and Ava carried one quiet wish: the blessing of a daughter. After years of waiting, their prayers were answered with the birth of Anastasia Rosaline King. Adored by her parents and brothers alike, she brought new joy and light into their lives. But their happiness was fragile. When Anastasia was just seven months old, a sudden attack on their mansion became the cover for her abduction. In an instant, the Kings' world was torn apart. A decade later, fate prepares to bring them together once more. Anastasia, no longer the baby they lost but a young girl carrying the heavy burden of a brain tumor and cancer, returns to the family who never stopped loving her. Unbeknownst to them, the years of separation have not only changed Anastasia's fate but also concealed secrets that could alter the King family forever.

New York never slept, but that night, the Ricci household did. The penthouse, usually filled with laughter, music, and the scent of fresh espresso, had fallen into an eerie silence. The soft hum of the baby monitor sat unnoticed on the bedside table. No one heard the creak of the nursery door. No one noticed the absence of breath from the bassinet. By morning, the world had changed. Three year old Alessandro Ricci was gone. The first scream came from Valentina, the eldest daughter. She was the one who found the empty crib, the soft blue blanket discarded on the floor. Then came the chaos-the panic in their father's voice as he barked orders in rapid Italian, the trembling in their mother's hands as she clutched the baby's last-worn onesie. The police swarmed in, news cameras soon followed, and for days, the Ricci's were a family under siege. A family in mourning. Days turned into weeks. Weeks into months. The trail went cold. The whispers began-speculations, doubts, cruel insinuations that an influential family like theirs should have been able to protect their own. But the Ricci's knew the truth. Someone had taken Alessandro. And three years later, as the city moved on, they never did. Because somewhere out there, their baby brother was waiting to come home.

{𝑩𝒐𝒐𝒌 1} 𝒁𝒊𝒏𝒂 𝑻𝒐𝒓𝒓𝒆𝒔 Is the girl no one really noticed. She hides her face- with all the horrid bruises present- behind a facade, and makes sure no one suspects a single thing about the hell she's met with at her home with her 'parents'. Sure, when she gets in trouble or someone picks on her, she can defend herself perfectly fine with the way she does illegal fights and wins time after time. But it's when she's utterly alone, and locked up in her personal hell that she doesn't dare to speak up or say a thing. It's when the voices get through her that she cowers away in the shadows and doesn't dare to come out. Not even when her own life is in danger does she uses everything she's learned from that special boy with the mesmerizing smile and the kind reassuring eyes. Zina lives in her own shadows and deals with her own demons, but what happens when a random boy on a random day, decides to show more interest in her than anyone ever did? What if he tells her something that'll change her whole life?And what happens if that particular boy claims to be related to her? And is blood really thicker than water? Can her 5 caring brothers pull her out of her own shadows and free her from the voices calling her back? Or will she give in and be a danger to everyone around her? ---- "Don't break her heart." I suddenly hear Lucas speak up next to me. "How did you know?" I ask him. "The eyes. Everything you feel for her is displayed in your eyes." He answers me and I nod slowly. "I won't." I say quietly to him. "You won't what?" He says, wrinkling his brows in confusion. "Break her heart." I finish saying. I see him nod from the corner of my eyes, contemplating on what to say next. "Good." ---- No incest, nor cheating in this book!
