My name's Aurora. Aurora Russo. And for a long time, I thought pain was normal. That love came with bruises. Then they happened- strangers who are my brothers. Loud. Cold. Angry. Yet somehow... they saved me. Not all at once. Not perfectly. But piece by piece, they pulled me out of the dark. This is the story of before them, and after. Of everything I lost. And everything I'm still trying to find. ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ❀ *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧ *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧ Nikita Gill once said, "The saddest word in the whole wide world is the word almost." Almost-the word that's followed Aurora like a shadow her whole life. She almost felt safe. She almost had a real family. She almost escaped the pain. She almost gave up. After years of silent suffering at the hands of those meant to protect her, she's finally free. She's shipped off to live with the only blood she has left: 7 older brothers she doesn't remember-hardened by violence, secrets, and a name feared in the underworld. What she doesn't know? They're part of the mafia. What they don't know? How to love her. Will they ever accept her as their sister? Or will she be just another casualty in their broken world? ∧,,,∧ ~ ┏━━━━━━━━┓ ( ̳• · • ̳) ~ ♡Best Rankings Had♡ / づ ~ ┗━━━━━━━━┛ #1 almost #1 abusive content #1 sisters and brothers #1 underage drug use #1 drugs #1 older brothers #1 ptsd awareness #1 hated #1 alcoholism #1 russo #1 weapon #1 bullying awarness #3 mafia princess #4 ptsd #5 mafia #5 family #5 mafia brothers #9 aurora #12 loveComplete
Psychological Desires
He kills to cleanse the filth-the ones the world already gave up on. But then he sees her-innocent, untouched, untainted. The world hasn't ruined her yet, and he won't let it. The only way to protect her... is to take her. She was supposed to die. But she didn't. Because something in her soft eyes and steady voice reaches the part of him that still remembers what it meant to feel. And she-terrified, yet unyielding-sees through his darkness. She promises to show him another way to live. While they dance a delicate line between ruin and redemption, the FBI hunts him, closing in with every chapter. When they finally catch up, nothing prepares them-or her-for the tragic, haunting end. This isn't a love story. It's a psychological desire. And it always ends in blood.

The Four Brothers ~ Completed
Gemma isn't what you would call normal. With a genius IQ, a not so great home life, and a hard time staying in tight spaces, the girl's got a few issues. She never thought that she would be saying that a new issue was four older brothers she had no idea about. Brothers who thought she died twelve years ago? But not everything is as it appears with our lovely little Gemma; same with her new brothers. Nothing is as it appears, it seems. With a past worse than expected at first glance, literal demons that can bite them in the ass, and a couple of plain grouchy Starbucks attendants, this will be one crazy ride. But will this ride destroy the family or bring it back together? Don't look at me, I don't know. You'll have to read to figure that out. (The chapter titles are in Portuguese but the story is in English, I promise you).Complete
