Throat Like Glass Bones by lia_lia010

She doesn't remember the sun. Her world has always been four walls and a locked door. No windows. No choices. No voice. The only time she was allowed to leave was when her pain meant saving her sister-or when she'd been "good enough" to earn it. They took her words early on. Beat them out of her until silence became survival. Then one night, everything changed A break-in. A gunshot. A breath of air colder than she'd ever felt. And suddenly, she was alone-left by a riverbank like forgotten trash. That's where he found her. Cruel. Cold. Powerful. A man with blood on his hands and no space for weakness. The kind of man other men fear: a mafia boss with no room for broken things. But he took her in. He doesn't know her story. Doesn't ask why she flinches when he raises his voice or why she can't speak. But for reasons he can't explain, he tries to fix what the world destroyed. She's silent. He's ruthless. And somehow, they both understand each other. Because sometimes the most shattered souls speak the loudest without saying a word.

Aurora | ✓ by itsnina2356

*new cover* I'm living in a house made of glass. I'm scared to move, to breathe, to think. I'm afraid. Any wrong move and I get yelled at, a broken rule and I get beat up...he's not even my father and I'm stuck in his own fucked up version of reality. My own mother is the reason he has me, the reason my family lost me. A broken, lost mafia princess living in the wrong story, taken from the right one. I've been in foster care all my life, until them...my brothers. I am saved by them when my shattered heart was about to turn into stone and when my cries would become echoes in the walls of the prison I was bestowed upon. I was months old when I was stolen from my family. 17 years had to go by for them to finally find me. My dad, my four older brothers..one of which I'll soon discover is my twin. My missing half. Will they be able to mend my shattered soul or will I remain broken and alone? TW: rape, abuse, assault, attempted suicide, strong language - Warning: contains teenage pregnancy SHE DOES KEEP THE BABY STOP SNAPPING AT ME DAMMIT...respectfully <3 *Edited*...sort of

That Unexpected Journey by Shanayawrites_

Blood of the Betrayed by olivia17carlsson34

**Summary:** After losing her entire family under tragic circumstances, a young woman is sent into a world of darkness, violence, and lies. Driven by a desperate need to uncover the truth behind her sister's death, she infiltrates a powerful and mysterious mafia organization that operates in the shadows-untouchable by the law. To get close, she builds a new identity and carefully gains the trust of those who are feared by everyone else. But the deeper she goes, the harder it becomes to separate right from wrong, revenge from love, truth from deception. Meanwhile, her past begins to catch up with her, and she must make a choice: pursue justice, or follow her heart. A story of loss, betrayal, identity, and forbidden love-where every decision could be her last. He would gladly drown a thousand times over, as long as she was the one who drowned him.
