She was never supposed to survive.
Born in the middle of a mafia war tied to the powerful Armano Family, Ruby Jane's life ended before it truly began.
Her mother died alone in a forest, holding her newborn child close.
A stranger found the crying baby and raised her in poverty, in silence, and in fragile love.
That was the only life she knew.
Until the truth came back for her.
Years later, Ruby Jane is taken into a world she never belonged to - the world of her real bloodline. Four brothers. A name she never knew she carried. A family built on power, danger, and control.
But Ruby Jane is not just a lost heir.
She smiles easily and wants to believe she finally has a home...
yet the smallest things can break her.
Raised in fear, pressure, and survival, she flinches at raised voices, struggles to hold eye contact, and panics when the world feels too heavy.
And in a house full of monsters disguised as family...
even kindness feels dangerous.
Because in the Armano family...
blood doesn't just bind you.
It decides who survives you.

Vampire's Pet
The world had gone to hell long ago, taken over by the vampire race. In order to keep some sort of peace in our land, the Vampire Lords made a consecutive agreement. The rich and powerful humans could survive just as they had been, untouched by the vampires save for the occasional blood collections, or so they thought In reality, we were all under their control. Castles spread out throughout our land, one landing in each city. Each castle varied in the number of vampires residing there, but all of them carried a Lord. The Lords were the ones in charge in every city, whether we liked it or not. The vampires often roam through the city, making sure that everyone was in order and no one stepped out of line. If you stepped out of line, you died, end of story. Even if the rich were still under their control, their lives were still better than the poor. The poorest lives held a much worse fate. The men were to be put to work as slaves, whether that meant serving a specific vampire, or just building their castles, they were slaves. The women were to be pets. Pets were the lowest rank you could have. They were forced into cages that were too small to stand in with collars around their necks. They spent their lives in pet shops, just waiting for the dreadful day that they'll be bought. They were treated like animals, trained into what their master wanted, and punished if they misbehaved. Those who were lucky enough to live through that, we're to be slaughtered for their blood at age twenty-five in an act to make sure that our population would stay steady. I was born into this world. Born into this world full of blood-sucking monsters. Except, I was one of the lucky ones. Was. It all ended for me when I was 12, when I was taken away from the last bit of hope and family that I had left. Ever since then, I've lived in a cage, just rotting away, waiting, dreading for the day that some monster would make me his. This is my life. I am a pet. ~~~ Cover by: @mshacakeComplete
