Svetlana was only three when she disappeared, taken from the warmth of her family's mansion and the protection of her five elder brothers. For a decade, they searched, feared, and mourned, never knowing if she was alive.

Ten years later, she returns. Not the giggling toddler they remember, but a quiet, guarded young girl with memories she refuses to share. The brothers she left behind are strangers now - older, harder, carrying their scars.

She does not remember them, but Blood remembers, and so does Heart.

"I was three when they kidnapped me from my home
  Now I'm back, but nothing feels like Home."

Can they bridge the gap between them? Both sides have their secrets. How will they react? Read more to find out!

The Silent Sister by Orphic_bae
28 parts Ongoing Mature
Alessandra has never believed in safety. Life never gave her a reason to. Pain carved her childhood, silence became her armor, and trust? That was a luxury she could never afford. So when she runs -- bloody, broken, and barely breathing, she doesn't expect saving. She certainly doesn't expect to be taken in by a family dripping in wealth and power and. . . warmth? A mother who refuses to give up on her. A father who watches like he's waiting for her to let him in. And six brothers. Rough. Protective. Complicated. Brothers, who don't know what to do with a sister who won't speak. She doesn't know how to trust. How to believe that maybe not everyone wants to hurt her. Every instinct tells her to run. To shut down. But they don't let her go. Not when she flinches. Not when she hides. Not even when she breaks. Happiness is for other people, or that's what she believes. But when love comes wrapped in gentle patience and fierce protection, when hands reach for her without demand, when hearts break themselves wide open just to hold her... she starts to wonder. Can a girl stitched together with silence and fear ever belong in a family built on love? Can she stand tall when the ghosts of her past refuse to let go? And when danger claws its way back into her life, threatening everything she's come to know... will she find her voice, or will she shatter all over again? Trigger Warnings: Child abuse. Violence. Addiction. Panic attacks. Self-harm. Death, and more.
