A young pregnant couple is faced with an unprecedented run of bad luck, but at each turn for the worse, a strange little man is there to help them out. The problem is, he always wants something in return...

...the first time she needs help, she has to give him her necklace, a family heirloom.

...the second time she need help, she has to give up an antique ring.

...the third time she needs help, when she has nothing left to give, he asks for her firstborn child.

After the adoption is completed, the string of bad luck suddenly runs out.  She starts to suspect that that many of the bad things that befell them may have been staged.   The little man was the beneficiary of their misery, and she desperately wants to get a hold of him before the adoption becomes irrevocable.  But she has nowhere to start - she doesn't even know his name.

SHADOWS OF BROTHERHOOD de Jazmin26007
22 partes Concluida
He wasn't the favorite. He wasn't the golden child. But he was the one who bled. When everything around him begins to crumble-family, love, and the secrets of a buried past-Ryan is forced to face a darkness he thought he'd left behind. What happens when the person they never really understood... becomes the only one who can save them? But saving them comes with a price. And some prices leave scars that even time can't heal. A story of sacrifice, forgotten memories, and a boy who was never supposed to be the hero. The boy they misunderstood. The one who laughed the loudest to hide the silence inside. The one who acted tough because no one noticed when he was gentle. The one who was always "too much"-too angry, too lost, too broken to fix. He was the black sheep. The storm in a house that only wanted sunshine. The one they blamed but never truly understood. They didn't know he cried himself to sleep at night. Didn't know he whispered "I'm sorry" to the shadows of parents he lost too young. Didn't know he carried the ache of abandonment in his bones every day. And when he finally found the truth-when he discovered who murdered them- he didn't hesitate. Not once.
