Thirteen-year-old Marleny "Mari" Phoenix Knight isn't afraid of cops, consequences, or correction. She's been raised by chaos, hardened by the city, and stitched together with spite. But after one too many run-ins with the law, and the loss of her mother, Mari's last strike sends her somewhere worse than juvie: a Tennessee ranch owned by the father she thought had abandoned her, and the half-sister she never wanted to know.
Out here, silence speaks louder than shouting. Consequences don't come with warnings-they come with corner time, work gloves, and the sting of a belt. Her name ain't just mud-it's fire, history, and blood running deeper than the dirt beneath her boots.
They say the land don't lie.
And Mari's about to find out the truth has a way of breaking before it builds.

Phoenix is known to burn, and Death is known to kill. But a phoenix never truly dies-so how can it be ππ‘π¨ππ§π’π±'π¬ πππππ‘? She was once a daddy's girl, now abandoned in a cruel, unforgiving world... with no memory of who she truly is. And yet, she remembers one boy-only for his betrayal.

She was their little princess, and her life was supposed to be like that of a princess. However, that was not the life for little Isabella, and instead she had been followed by almost never-ending misfortunes since the day she was born.

Blossoming Under The Shadows: Blossom & Brother
Blossom doesn't flinch. Not when she's running from cops. Not when she's hauled out of floorboards by her hair. Not even when she's bleeding. Because she literally can't feel pain. At fifteen, she's a streetwise runaway with a smart mouth, a stolen Girl Scout cookie box, and ties to one of the most dangerous gangs in New York. But everything changes when a military man walks into a holding cell and claims to be her long-lost brother-Captain Marigold, now her temporary guardian. He's determined to pull her out of the life she's built with Andre's gang, but Blossom isn't going quietly. Especially not when walking away could get her killed. Not when the streets are all she's ever known. Then there's Tyler-quiet, awkward, and painfully out of place in her world. A cop's son with a tragic past tied to Blossom in ways neither of them expected. As the truth about her condition comes to light, and buried memories begin to surface, Blossom is forced to confront what she's been running from all along: her own vulnerability.Complete

"You lied to me" I screamed "You hid everything from me, why. Just why did you do this to me, to my siblings?" Tears began streaming down my face. "I did it to protect you, and your brothers, and your sister. I did it all for you guys" he said.

The Bubbly Heiress of Chaos
β°ββ€ βNo, I'm fine, I'm lying on the floor again.β She's a little rabbit amidst a pack of hungry wolves. A prey amidst a pack of predators. A flickering light amidst a jungle of darkness. Her kindness is her vulnerability, a soft heartbeat in the face of merciless, sharp fangs. Yet, in the midst of this peril, there's a quiet strength, a glimmer of innocence that refuses to be extinguished. She may be small, but they aren't the only ones with secrets. How does one go from being a normal 15 year old with the best family she could ask for to being the unknown daughter of a billionaire? From skipping through life like its a path of roses to finding danger in every breath she takes? From dancing to baby shark as she walked home to playing video games in a private jet? Ask anyone, they would say she is a combination of water and fire. A shimmering river that will flow in whichever way you direct her and also a blubbering stumbling fool that might or might not burn down a building if left unsupervised. In her defense the ground is 'madly in love with her' and danger is a 'clingy ex'. Welcome to the life of Palak; a carefree overthinker, a sensitive rock, a withering laughing fool. She doesn't break, but she sure as hell is covered in bruises. This is Palak. An oblivious Mafia Princess. The Bubbly Heiress of Chaos. Will she be able to keep her smile or will she end up loosing it forever?Complete
