Once a boy trapped in the hands of a monster, Grayson Smith now stands a man carved from scars and quiet nightmares. No longer frail, no longer anyone's battlefield. He knows the fight, the ground, and the cards.

Years after Charlie, years after a damaged teen, he inherits a crown he never asked for but life prepared him to bear. His scars speak louder than words, telling stories untold, half the Mafia wants him erased. The other half-led by the most feared boss alive-wants to claim him.

Why? They share the same blood. The same flesh. Once rejected-now hunted to be taken back by force.

Grayson-the silent shadow hidden behind castle walls, the mind behind the name Pokus II-finds himself trapped again in a circle of impossible decisions. But this time he isn't alone. At his side stand the ones he must protect, even as the growing menace threatens to bring him to his knees.

 He can no longer run to his uncles. He is no longer the child who needed safe hands.

He is the Silent Hands now- the one who wields the sword. But the greatest enemy isn't the Mafia at his door-it's the darkness locked inside him.

A hunger for destruction. A shadow born from blood he never wanted. A part of him that whispers he is no different from the man who abused him, no different from the father who rejected him, no different from the cruelty running through his veins.

Grayson must fight that darkness-He must be different.

Different from the man who abused him.
Different from the father who rejected him.
Different from the ruin that runs in his family
and in his veins despite his pains and losses and he must watch his heart being torn again and again. 

What will become of Grayson Smith?

Scarred Hands by oluna15

Years have fallen away like petals from a dying rose, yet the roots of the past refuse to wither. Grayson fought relentlessly to seal the door on his past, leaving only the scars etched into his skin-marks of a battle long endured, of a warrior forged in suffering. Scars he wished had never been carved into him, yet ones he had no choice but to bear. The abuse, the pain, all buried deep beneath the weight of time, cemented alongside Charlie's grave. But the past is never truly silent. When Grayson crosses paths with a ghost from his childhood torment, the door he fought so hard to lock swings open, unleashing memories long suppressed. His first instinct is to run-to flee as he always has. Yet, with the weight of responsibility on his shoulders and a young boy looking up to him, escape is no longer an option. This time, vengeance calls his name. It stands against everything he's been taught, everything he's tried to become. All in the name of peace-true peace-that eluded him since he was three. How far will he go to claim it? Would he break his family's trust and become the killer he was meant to be?

Wild Blood, Polished Bones by juji_jeona

At sixteen, Alex Alexander Hawthorne left England dressed in pressed shirts and expectations he never agreed to carry. At twenty, he comes back smelling of smoke and petrol, riding a motorbike his parents would hate, with scars no one asks about. The Hawthornes are polished, controlled, old money British to the core. Alex is everything they're not-loud, reckless, impulsive. To them, he's trouble. What they don't see is the truth. Four years abroad hardened Alex in ways no one prepared him for. The drinking, the racing, the chaos-it's survival, not rebellion. And while his family watches him like he's a ticking bomb, Alex keeps his real lifeline hidden: a tight-knit group of friends who became his family when he had none. Coming home means facing the people he ran from-and deciding whether he's brave enough to let them see the damage beneath the wild grin.

Fighting shadows by Mindyobusiness999

Elias Ramirez was taken from his family at only a few months old by his mother. His life was one of chaos, neglect, abuse, and confusion. He never understood why his parents didn't care about him like all other parents do. Why he would see parents hugging their kids, and taking them on trips. His own parents never did that, they never talked to him unless they wanted something from him, they never kissed him on the cheek or kissed his scraped knees. He doesn't understand what the word love meant. Growing up in an abusive home for his entire life taught him to only rely on himself, and to not let anyone push him around. After his mother died at the age of 8 he was left alone with his stepfather. His stepfather never treated him with love or care. He treated him roughly and taught him to never trust anyone. After the murder of his stepfather at the age of 11 he ran away. Scared of people he changed his identity completely. Hoping to never be found. Never be tied down to that identity for all the secrets it carries. Will he be so lucky? Or will he get caught. Oh did I forget to mention he has 6 older brothers actively trying to find him?
