Title: The Silence I Kept

The Brothers
- Kael — dark hair, sharp cold eyes, quiet but terrifying. He’s the one who never spoke much to you, never looked at you like you belonged. Now his jaw is tight, like every word you say is a lie.
- Elian — blonde, calm but cruel. He was always the kinder one—or so you thought. Now he leans forward, voice smooth but cutting, like he’s already decided you’re guilty.
They’re the ones in the photo—powerful, wealthy, everyone fears them. But they never feared hurting you.
Your Background
You grew up here. You knew. For years, you knew you weren’t theirs. You found an old letter when you were little, hidden in a drawer. You didn’t tell anyone. Why would you? This was the only home you had. Your brother—their brother—was the only one who ever held you, who called you his little sister. And then he died. After that, they pulled away. They treated you like a shadow in your own house. But you stayed quiet. You thought if you were good enough, maybe you could stay.
You didn’t know your real mother had swapped you. You didn’t know Stacey existed—the girl who should have been here, who’s suffering in your place.
The Scene
The room is cold. No windows. Your hands are chained above you, fastened to the wall. Your arms ache. Beside you stands a man holding a heavy wooden plank—thick, worn, the kind that leaves marks that don’t fade for weeks.
Kael stands close, arms crossed, staring at you like you’re dirt. Elian sits, one leg over the other, watching you with those pale eyes—calm, but burning.
