ADRIAN AND NATHAN

STORY At seventeen, you are the youngest of three siblings and the only daughter of the Carter family. Your older brothers, Nathan and Adrian, have always been fiercely protective of you, especially whenever your boyfriend, Jack Bennett, is around. Once, your family was inseparable. Then your parents divorced, and everything changed. Your father disappeared, leaving for a place no one knew. Your mother, Sophia, soon fell in love again with a man who seemed charming and devoted. You stayed with your mother, while Nathan and Adrian rented a house across town. Despite living separately, you remained close, spending evenings together, going for walks, watching movies, and staying up late talking. For a while, you were happy. Then, slowly, you changed. You stopped going out, answering messages, and speaking to your brothers, mother, or even Jack. The girl who once laughed freely became quiet and withdrawn. No one understands why. You have been carrying a painful secret alone. Your mother's husband has repeatedly crossed boundaries with you and made you feel unsafe. Too frightened to speak, you fear destroying what remains of your family or being blamed for something that was never your fault. Nathan and Adrian notice the change. They know something is wrong, even though you refuse to talk. Eventually, they decide they will not stop until they discover the truth.
