"I, William James Archibald, being of sound mind and body, do hereby declare this my last will and testament. To my beloved grandchildren, Alastair, Aurelia, Julian, Carver and Ophelia, I leave the entirety of my estate, to be divided equally amongst the five of you."

"However," Mr. Harris, the lawyer continues, his voice gaining gravity, "this inheritance comes with one condition. Before my assets are to be divided, each of you must spend six consecutive months living together here, at Arcadia Manor."

The Unwanted One

15 parts Ongoing

Everyone's given a life at random. We don't ask for it, we don't even get a say. We just have to suck it up and live with what we have. Some luckier than others. Brynn got dealt with cards most people wouldn't survive with. She got stuck with 4 brothers, all who hated her. Why? Who knows. Her life is miserable. When it all almost ends, it starts a new beginning. Read about the life of Brynn and her brothers. Here's a little sneak peek queens _______ "I hate all of you. You've put me through hell and back but I'm done being scared. You've done it all to me what left is there." I huffed a dry, hard laugh. Tears fell from my cheeks but I pushed them away. I was done being weak. "Big girl got her big girl pants on now?" Ethan mocked. Caleb strutted over to me his fist lifting in the air. I've lived with them long enough to sense their every move. So I ran. "GET BACK HERE YOU FAT WHORE." Caleb screamed chasing me through the house. He was fast but I was smart. I got enough of a lead to quickly hide inside the closet. Underneath I could see his feet slowly sauntering, calling out my name. My brothers called him a dumbass for losing me. "Check the fucking closet you moron." Carter commented. This was it, I was ready. The door opened and with the lamp I held in my hand I smashed it on Caleb's head. Oh shit.
