Abandoned, forgotten, unloved.
At only eight years old, Y/n was cast out like he never mattered, left to survive in a world that didn't care if he lived or died. Days turned into endless nights of hunger and loneliness-until he found Kiki, a small injured kitten just as lost as he was. She became his only warmth, his only family.
But fate was not finished with him yet.
One fateful day, a stranger appeared- William Pryce, a ruthless and cold-hearted billionaire who never did anything without purpose. He came not for Y/n, but to find a heir. Yet, when the boy refused to part with his only friend, something in William's steely heart wavered. Instead of returning home alone... he returns with two new members of the family.
Y/n soon learns that William has his own reasons for keeping him- reasons that have nothing to do with kindness. But even the most frozen hearts can thaw, and even the most shattered souls can find solace.
Because sometimes, family is not given. It is found.

"You're different from what I expected," she said softly.
"How so?" he asked, glancing at her.
"I don't know," she replied, searching for the right words. "You just... have this way of making people feel like they matter. Even here, in this... nightmare."
He was quiet for a moment before responding. "You matter, Y/n. Don't forget that."
