It was an unspoken law in the Costa household: any boy who dared speak to Eleni vanished the next day. Not in a creepy way—no one got hurt (yet)—but emotionally, socially, psychologically? Oh yeah.
No one knew exactly how it worked. Rumors flew.
Some said Matteo (24, overprotective menace and part-time law student) had "connections."
Others believed Enzo (22, gym rat, motorcycle, and all charm) just intimidated people with one look.
Leonardo (19, soft-spoken but unsettlingly intense) didn't need to say much—his stares were enough.
And Lorenzo (17, twin, slick liar) always smiled... and whispered terrifying things no one ever repeated.
The younger boys? They were the chaotic enforcers. Francesco and Giovanni (14, the tag-team twins) were tech geniuses who tracked people's socials like FBI interns. Nico (12, the baby) somehow convinced an eighth grader to cry with a single stare.
They were a mafia of brotherly love. (Not actual mafia but you get the point)
Eleni hated it.
