Mace has always felt like the odd one out in his family of eight boys. His brothers were blessed with charm, talent, and an effortless way of being-qualities that seemed to bypass him entirely. From the moment he was born under dire circumstances, Mace's life was marked by struggle. His birth was difficult, almost fatal, and his survival left scars that extended beyond the physical, casting a long shadow over his childhood.
Growing up, Mace constantly battled feelings of inadequacy, his self-worth burdened by the weight of his family's unspoken expectations. His brothers thrived, basking in the limelight, while Mace grappled with a growing sense of isolation. But just as he begins to carve out a fragile sense of identity, fate deals him a devastating blow. A tragic shooting leaves him clinging to life, and in its wake, Mace disappears-fading into the background, forgotten even by those closest to him.
As he fights to recover from the physical and emotional scars of that fateful day, Mace embarks on a painful journey of self-discovery. He is forced to confront not only the trauma of the shooting but the lifelong emotional wounds of being the overlooked brother. Will Mace find a way to reclaim his life, redefine his worth, and reestablish his place in the family that shaped him? Or will he remain lost forever in the shadows, a ghost of the person he was meant to be?

Alexander is a middle child in the large family. At the prime age of fourteen he's starting to become confused about many things in his life such as where he fits in, what he wants to do when he's older and his sexuality. Nolan is in the same boat. Though he is not part of the Valentine family he got the privilege of living down the street from them. He had a slightly smaller family with only a slightly better income. But the only things Nolan feels he needs is astronomy, books and his best friend Alexander who is always getting them into trouble.
