River ...
It never stops flowing until it becomes something bigger, better, and even then its waves never die out after crashing upon the sand. That's what dad would always say I was trying to be but truthfully I just wanted to be like him.
Sebastian
Just looking for a place to belong. Prove that he is worth loving. He may not have been strong enough to protect his real family but he'll fight with everything in him to protect his little Nile.
Tucker
Just needs to play nice long enough to find out the truth. Doesn't matter to him either way cause soon he'll be back in jail or dead. This is who he is, who they were. They took his brother and if it's the last thing he does, he'll make them pay. Because revenge is a dish best served cold and he's freezing.
Thier background isn't the only thing that molded them into the people they've become. Family was the true motivators in thier lives. They either made heroes of them or villains in thier own story. Will these three let the pressure of family, the need for revenge, or never knowing love keep them from their true selves? Will they learn to speak up and fight for what they want. After all a close mouth never got anyone fed.

Once the perfect heir-intelligent, brave, and adored-Jordan was raised to be feared and worshipped. However, the one factor his father failed to account for was the compassion he had for others. He wasn't a prince who thrived on the suffering of others' he was a boy who had suffered deep, abandoned by the very blood he believed once would protect him. Betrayed by his own flesh and blood, he learned early on that nobility didn't guarantee freedom, nor did power promise safety. Now, left to fend for himself, Jordan carries the scars that the world was never meant to see. When he ends up on the doorstep of Kai Stone's house, he doesn't expect much. But, what he receives is the chance to make his own choices. Kai is everything he was taught to hate-the freedom, the care-free attitude, the fire.

Yet, the more time he spend with the prince, he couldn't help but question his beliefs. No matter what he said about royalty, Kai couldn't seem to hate him
