Years ago, two sisters vanished without a trace.
Time moved on-but the past was never buried.
Now, as long-forgotten memories begin to surface, questions once ignored demand answers. Because some truth don't stay hidden.
They wait.
What was meant to protect became something far more dangerous. And uncovering it may cost more than silence ever did.
A story of bonds that survive trauma, secrets that echo through time, and the price of remembering what was meant to be forgotten.
Because some families don't just keep secrets-they rule empires built in the shadows.

Their name is world known that installs deep amounts of fear to all and when seeing them people run into the different direction. On a December morning the Italian Mafia Donna gave birth two baby boys but before anybody knew what was happening she was told to continuing pushing. A shock that travelled through the whole family is the baby was a girl... the first girl to be born into the Marino's. The Marino family was as happy as could possibly be until one night that all come crashing down. The mafia princess, the only girl to be born was kidnapped on her and her brothers birthday a year later... 16 years passed when the girl who was kidnapped by her Uncle for revenge, for a call explaining her foster parent had died. How will news affect her when her previous knowledge of having no family gets crushed when the words "your biological father has agreed to take you in" get told to her. #1 longlostsister ~Just a reminder for everyone that some things in my book will be a little unrealistic but if you've read other books similar to mine they will also have unrealistic parts too. Alessia and Ares grew up quicker and learnt the realities of the world earlier than someone would normally but it also says in certain parts that she's a genius which if you read about it you'd understand it's not all that surprising~
