Quiet. That's all he was in the eyes of his family. Inside he was broken, torn. A storm always brewing within him. Perfect was far from him. But what happens when he can't take it anymore and pain becomes a quiet relief. What happens when his family starts to find something wrong. WARNING:rape

Ivan has endured more pain, misery, and heartbreak in his fourteen years of life than most people do in a lifetime, all at the hands of a father who's given him nothing but hate and scars. Then his "father" dies in a tragic accident, and a DNA test reveals that his father isn't his father, he has a real family: a mother, a father, and four older brothers. His entire life has been a lie. And to top it all off, they're not just any family, they're the Morozov's. A name everyone has heard at least once in their lifetime. Wealthy, powerful, and untouchable across the globe. Can Ivan survive there world? Learn to trust and maybe even love? Or is this just another disaster waiting to explode?

Xander Romano has always been the quieter twin, impulsive, moody, a little dramatic. But behind the eye-rolls and sharp comebacks is a boy who feels everything too deeply and doesn't know how to talk about it. And now, he's carrying a secret far too heavy for someone his age. With five overprotective older brothers, you'd think he'd be safe. You'd think someone would notice. But Xander's been hiding more than just skipped meals and forced smirks. He's been hiding the truth. He can't tell them. Not about him. Never. But secrets don't stay buried forever.

Ignored. Sent away. Forgotten. Now he's back after almost two years from the hell they call Lockwood, all smiles and cheery expressions but under that exterior is a lone boy, crying for help he will never ask for. He was sent away to be 'fixed' but in the end, what can you do when people drive you to your tipping point? Do you bend to their will... or do you break?
