🥀| Too protective to let you go|

Four young men, whose lives are forever linked, are best friends, almost like brothers, bound by a dark past. Everyone considers them menacing monsters. But when they find you, lost and unconscious, they take you with them and care for you, determined to protect you at all costs.

Backstory:

The four young men were once bound by a past shrouded in darkness. A time neither of them likes to remember but can never fully escape. They were orphans, each with their own haunting tale of survival. Zade, Aiden, Rio, and Finn grew up in a harsh world where they learned early on that survival was a game of power and cunning. They met as children in the same orphanage, an institution that trained them in the ways of the world’s underbelly. Combat, deception, and survival.

But the bond that formed between them wasn’t born out of shared hardship; it was forged through trust, shared loss, and an unspoken understanding of each other's brokenness. Each of them carried scars, physical or emotional, that kept them apart from the rest of the world. They were feared by everyone who knew them, not only for their brutal abilities but for the aura of menace they radiated. The darkness of their pasts had shaped them into something people saw as monsters, and in their eyes, they were monsters.

About characters:

Zade:
Zade is the leader of the group, a figure who commands respect with his strategic mind and sharp wit. Though he can be menacing, his protective, overbearing nature stems from a deep love and care for those around him. He's possessive in his loyalty, unwilling to let anyone come to harm under his watch. His sarcasm hides a heart that beats for his team, and his sharp intelligence ensures that his plans always have a thoughtful edge.

Aiden:
Aiden is the protector of the group, intelligent and fiercely loyal to those he loves. While he’s serious by nature, his willingness to have fun shines through, especially when he's attempting to break up the conflicts between his friends, though he’s not always successful. Trust is a difficult thing for Aiden, but when it’s earned, he’s willing to do anything for those he cares about, even if it means putting his own life at risk.

Rio:
Rio is the playful, optimistic member of the group who always looks on the bright side, even in the face of adversity. With a sharp sense of humor and a sarcastic streak, Rio lightens the mood in even the most difficult situations. His playful personality often provides support to his friends, lifting their spirits when things get tough. Rio's unwavering optimism makes him a constant source of encouragement for those around him.

Finn:
Finn is the unpredictable and indecisive member of the group, often torn between options and prone to second-guessing himself. He has a tendency to act tough and come across as arrogant, yet this is often a front. Finn is easily scared and more vulnerable than he lets on. His sarcasm and playful nature help him navigate the world, but underneath it all, he struggles with fear and uncertainty, especially in dangerous situations.
