[Free Until End Of Story] ── ─ ┈┈┈┄┄╌╌ Lowly. Illegitimate. Disgraceful. Amaryllis bore the weight of whispers and stares, a child born out of debauchery. She was raised behind iron gates and velvet curtains, in a family whose name was spoken only in lowered voices. A mafia dynasty, steeped in blood and loyalty. Yet even within that empire of power, she remained a shadow in the presence of her brothers, seen but never truly known. However her heart, vast and unyielding, loved them unconditionally. But life is both fragile and cruel. When terminal illness claimed her, she carried it alone behind fragile smiles, unwilling to darken the days of those she adored. Only one wish bloomed before the end, "I hope their feelings might change, even if it's temporary." And when that time comes...

Tranquillity by BlueberryBlush__

Finally, things are looking up for them. The question is, for how long?

SLEUTH by ClumsyFawn

I wanted to stay hidden, in my apartment in South Dakota. I wanted to remain anonymous, their world knowing me as Sleuth, someone whose presence was strictly digital. Helping people find their missing loved ones. Then came a deal I couldn't refuse - literally. The Morelli family was one you just didn't say no to, and when you were on their radar, they weaved you into their way of life, their web sticking to you like glue. I promised myself I wouldn't go back to that life after growing up in it; but there was a missing girl to find. And I just happen to love solving a mystery. 'A missing sister story, where she finds herself and a family she didn't even know she wanted.' ⭐️1st in #MISSINGSISTER on the 22/12/2025
