Aurora's life was never the easy. Her mom was neglectful and a drunk, she married another drunk named Allen who was creepy and weird. If things couldn't get any worse her mom dies when she's 6 from overdose and now is in the hands of her stepfather. If he's not drunk and delirious he's drunk, delirious, and beats Aurora.
Back then she was small and powerless, she cried and cried and cried. One day her father had beat her so hard with a broken alcohol bottle he left a nasty diagonal scar on her back. She ran out of the house and came across and fight dojo. When she entered the boys tried to kick her out but she insisted else needed to fight.
From then on she refused to be weak, she taught herself how to fight, how to dodge, how to use knives, everything. She got a job and started to work. Life at home was still hell but she would manage and stay strong, at least until she 18.
But one fateful day, her father dies. Aurora thinks she's going to foster care but instead a foster care worker tells her she has a biological family. She tells her she's a Villaruso. She also has 5 brooding brothers. Great.
Will Aurora learn to trust and let down her walls, and will her family tell her that they run the Italian mafia. After all she's the dawn of the Italian mafia.
