Our Rules
Set four years after New Rules. P.S I am still working on "The Perfect Ending" however, the story isn't giving me excitement and creative ideas like this series is. So I promise I'm still working on it but I seem to enjoy writing this one more. 🙃Complete

The Silent Sister
Alessandra has never believed in safety. Life never gave her a reason to. Pain carved her childhood, silence became her armor, and trust? That was a luxury she could never afford. So when she runs -- bloody, broken, and barely breathing, she doesn't expect saving. She certainly doesn't expect to be taken in by a family dripping in wealth and power and. . . warmth? A mother who refuses to give up on her. A father who watches like he's waiting for her to let him in. And six brothers. Rough. Protective. Complicated. Brothers, who don't know what to do with a sister who won't speak. She doesn't know how to trust. How to believe that maybe not everyone wants to hurt her. Every instinct tells her to run. To shut down. But they don't let her go. Not when she flinches. Not when she hides. Not even when she breaks. Happiness is for other people, or that's what she believes. But when love comes wrapped in gentle patience and fierce protection, when hands reach for her without demand, when hearts break themselves wide open just to hold her... she starts to wonder. Can a girl stitched together with silence and fear ever belong in a family built on love? Can she stand tall when the ghosts of her past refuse to let go? And when danger claws its way back into her life, threatening everything she's come to know... will she find her voice, or will she shatter all over again? Trigger Warnings: Child abuse. Violence. Addiction. Panic attacks. Self-harm. Death, and more.
Saudade
"You lied to me" I screamed "You hid everything from me, why. Just why did you do this to me, to my siblings?" Tears began streaming down my face. "I did it to protect you, and your brothers, and your sister. I did it all for you guys" he said. "At what cost ... at what damn cost did we have to pay for your mistakes, you took the thing that I loved the most away from me" I said, tears being smeared all over my face, as I stared at him with my forest green eyes. Just like his. ... Astraea Knight is a 15 year old girl living with her four older brothers, due to her parent's disappearance when she was 13. No one knows what happened to them, and no traces were found. Left to fend for herself in this big family, Astraea is forced to keep the family afloat as new and old wounds begin to open up. The issues that were once forgotten and tucked into the pages of the past, begin to untangle themselves and into the lives of the Knight siblings. Astraea will soon unravel the truth, the truth of how her life came to be, the truth that no one wanted her to know.
You Make The Pain Go Away

Unfortunately she had never had a breakthrough in stopping it... because the older she got the more powerful her skill became. In a world where she is the only one like this, she remains isolated and alone with no way of stopping her tragic future. Dana is stuck in an endless loop of trying to go unnoticed in her highschool while just trying to die peacefully. That is, until she meets someone who's mind she can't read. *Completed*Complete
