The De Luca family rules the underworld with power, wealth, and fear. As one of the most powerful mafia families, they have everything—loyal soldiers, endless influence, and a bond that nothing should be able to break.

Except the night they lost their youngest son.

When Adrian De Luca was only four years old, he disappeared without a trace from the safety of the family estate. Despite the De Luca family's endless power and resources, years of searching brought nothing but silence. To the world, the eighth son of the De Luca family had simply vanished.

But Adrian was not dead.

For eleven years, he lived a life no child should ever endure. Kidnapped and forced to grow up in a cruel household, he was treated like a servant, abused, starved, and constantly reminded that he was unwanted. The bright, cheerful child he once was slowly disappeared, replaced by a quiet and guarded boy who learned that survival meant silence.

At fifteen, everything changes.

A single lead brings the De Luca family face to face with the truth they had searched for over a decade. Their lost son is alive.

But the boy they bring home is no longer the little prince they remember.

Thin, scarred, and terrified of the very family claiming to love him, Adrian struggles to believe that the powerful mafia household is truly his home. Surrounded by six fiercely protective older brothers and the twin who never stopped waiting for him, he must slowly learn what it means to belong again.

Yet the past refuses to stay buried.

As the De Luca family uncovers the truth behind Adrian’s kidnapping, enemies begin to surface, secrets come to light, and the underworld learns a dangerous lesson—

The youngest son of the De Luca family has finally come home.

And this time, the De Lucas will make sure no one ever takes him away again.
