THEM

There are four names whispered long before they are ever spoken aloud.
Four lives that were shaped in silence, shadow, and choices no one else witnessed.

Each of them grows up carrying something unnamed.
A promise that was never kept.
A night no one talks about.
A decision that changed everything.

They were already dangerous.
Already devoted.
Already broken in ways that could never be undone.

This story ends right before Yulia enters their lives-but by then, you'll know that whatever comes next was never going to be simple.

Because before her...
There was THEM.
