‼️SHORT STORY‼️
Ten years ago, a relentless rain turned the river into a nightmare. Pushed by bullies, ten-year-old Liana fell into the churning water, saved only by the reckless, selfless leap of her older brother, Elias, whose body was never recovered. The moment is forever etched in her mind-not just the trauma of the drowning, but the image of her best friend, Gio, standing paralyzed on the bank, watching her sink.
Haunted by the tragedy and crippled by an absolute phobia of the rain, Liana fled her life in the Philippines, seeking refuge in Madrid. But a year of trying to outrun her grief and a failed relationship later, she returns home, convinced the only way forward is back to the familiar.
Yet, Manila holds a cruel twist of fate. Liana encounters a man who is the striking, unmistakable double of Gio-the boy whose inaction sealed her trauma. This new man bears a different name and appears to be a total stranger, forcing Liana to question her fragile grasp on reality.
As the familiar, heavy Philippine monsoon season closes in, Liana must confront the possibility that the past isn't just haunting her-it's standing right in front of her. But uncovering the truth about the boy who betrayed her may mean reopening the wound of the brother she lost.

The Thread That Holds Me
Liana Vescari has always been the nice one, the girl who smooths over arguments, puts others first, and never asks for more than she's given. At eighteen, in a family everyone admires, her kindness is praised as maturity, her silence mistaken for strength. When she was fifteen, her older sister's boyfriend, charming, trusted, and deeply woven into their family, began crossing lines so subtly that Liana convinced herself it was nothing. She didn't want to be dramatic. She didn't want to hurt anyone. What felt like care slowly became control, and by the time she was old enough to understand what was happening, she had already learned to blame herself for not saying no. Determined to protect her family's image and her sister's happiness, Liana keeps quiet. She tells herself she's fine, even as depression settles in and bulimia becomes a way to punish her body for taking up too much space. Survival, she believes, means enduring without complaint. When three new friends enter her life and offer a kind of safety she's never known, Liana begins to question whether being good should hurt this much. But as her abuser tightens his hold and the truth threatens to surface, she faces an impossible choice. Speaking up could finally free her, but it may also cost her the family, identity, and love she's spent her life trying not to disappoint.Complete

Being Saved
A mafia siblings book with a love interest as the two central themes. -- Katerina is a 15-year-old girl who has been abused by her mother for as long as she can remember. As time goes on, the worst years of her life seem neverending, and she can only take so much more; even with the help of a close friend, she struggles to remain true to herself. After the death of her mother and stepfather, Katie learns that she is not alone in the world, having thought for years that she had no other family other than the she-devil that called herself Kat's mother. Most surprising of all is when she learns of the brothers who had been searching for her for the past decade. -- Will Kate finally be able to overcome her dark past and love again, or will she stay cold and closed off from the world forever? Will her brothers finally be able to break down the walls that she has spent years building? Or will they push her to her limits, breaking her beyond repair? - Excerpts: Sebastiano's POV: "Sometimes I feel like my life is a lie," she mumbles, leaning her head against my shoulder. "I like to act tough, but most of the time, that act is just to hide how broken I truly am." - Katerina's POV: "It's not your job to protect me!" I exasperate, trying to pull my arm away. Instead, he grabs both of my arms firmly, yet gently, pulling me towards him. "My brothers smother me enough as it is," I grumble under my breath, tugging away from him pointlessly as his grip on my arms never falters. "I realize that it isn't my job to protect you, Katie, but I want it to be," he declared, meeting my gaze. ----------- ⚠️TW: List on Chapter 0 This is a mafia story after all...
