Modern Family Fanfiction

Before I turned eighteen, I was the adored principessa of the Moretti family. That all changed on my eighteenth birthday, when my father brought home an orphan girl named Carina. "She needs a home," my father said. "You will look after her, like a sister." From that moment on, nothing was the same. My brother, who once doted on me, became cold and distant. And my fiancé... his love for me seemed to halve overnight. The family praised Carina for being gentle and obedient, calling her a far better daughter than me, their own flesh and blood. After being cast aside for Carina one too many times, I finally broke and grabbed my father's sleeve. "Does blood mean nothing at all?" My father's fury ignited. He sheltered a tear-stricken Carina behind him, and in front of every member of the family, he struck me across the face. "You selfish waste. I wish I'd never had you." "You bring shame to this family," my brother Marco's voice was as cold as a blade. "Get out." And my fiancé, Vincent, looked at me with disappointment,"If only it had been Carina I was engaged to from the start." They thought I would grovel at their feet, like I always did. But I said nothing, just walked to the family safe, removed the official documents, and drew a single line through my name. I took the engagement ring from my finger and placed it on the table. I gave Carina everything they felt I didn't deserve. After all, I only had a few days left to live. But they had no idea then that amid the ruins of the Moretti family, they would one day kneel in the rain and plead for my return.

Sophia Winter hatte einst mit ihrer Mutter eine Wette abgeschlossen – falls Julian Hartmann jemals in sie verliebt würde, sollte ihre Mutter zurücktreten und sie zusammen sein lassen. Als sie erfuhr, dass Julian sanfte und widerstandsfähige Mädchen bevorzugte, gab sie sich daher als mittellose Studentin aus, um ihm nahe zu sein. Aber am Ende zerstörte Julian ihre Illusionen: Er hielt seine erste Liebe in den Armen und blickte Sophia mit Verachtung an. „Eine geldgierige Niemandin wie du? Wie könntest du jemals mit meiner Clara mithalten?“ Gedemütigt und mit gebrochenem Herzen ging Sophia fort, kehrte nach Hause zurück und trat ihr rechtmäßiges Erbe als Milliarden-Erbin an. Jahre später kam sie zurück – in einem maßgeschneiderten Designer-Kleid im Wert von Millionen, das Eleganz und Stärke ausstrahlte. Neben ihr stand ein Mann, von dem gemunkelt wurde, dass er unantastbar, gefürchtet und verehrt sei. Als sie Julian erneut begegnete, hatten sich die Rollen vertauscht. Dieses Mal war es Julian, der voller Reue zurückblieb. Er wandte sich über soziale Medien mit einer öffentlichen Geständnis an sie: „Früher dachte ich, ich liebe starke, einzigartige Frauen. Doch Sophia, die Begegnung mit dir hat mich gelehrt, dass Liebe keine Regeln kennt. Du bist meine Ausnahme.“ Genau in dieser Nacht brach der rätselhafte Adrian Berg sein Schweigen und veröffentlichte ein lang gehütetes Foto. Darin lächelte ein Mädchen strahlend, ungezähmt und voller Leben. Entschlossen nahm er Sophias Hand und verkündete für alle sichtbar: „Sophia, es gibt keine Ausnahmen. Du warst schon immer die Einzige. Und ich habe mein ganzes Leben auf diesen Moment gewartet.“

Élianor ist eine junge Frau, deren Existenz nur aus langem Leiden bestand. Wegen ihres Gewichts war sie ihr ganzes Leben lang Ziel von Spott, sowohl im Familienkreis als auch in der gesamten Stadt. Die Wände der Schule wurden für sie zur Bühne eines täglichen und gnadenlosen Mobbings. Ihr Martyrium erreichte seinen Höhepunkt während einer öffentlichen Erniedrigung, so grausam und so gewalttätig inszeniert, dass sie mit einem unauslöschlichen Schandmal in den Augen aller bedeckt war. Zerbrochen und von Scham zerfressen, blieb ihr nichts anderes übrig, als aus dieser Stadt zu fliehen, die zu einer Hölle geworden war. Ihr Exil war von einem weiteren Drama geprägt: Sie ging fort, mit einem Kind in sich, dessen Vaterschaft sie nicht kannte, möglicherweise das Ergebnis einer letzten Gewaltsamkeit oder einer verzweifelten Beziehung. Fünf Jahre später kehrt Élianor zurück. Das schüchterne und verletzte Mädchen ist verschwunden. An ihrer Stelle steht eine Frau von atemberaubender Schönheit, schlank und strahlend, ausgestattet mit einer Kraft und Autorität, die nicht angefochten werden können. Sie kehrt zurück auf das Land ihres ehemaligen Albtraums mit einer einzigen obsessiven Idee: sich mit kalter Methodik an all jenen zu rächen, die sie gebrochen haben, und der gesamten Stadt den Preis für ihre Gleichgültigkeit und Grausamkeit zu berechnen.

After I get abducted to an underground auction house belonging to a mafia family based in Aleroth, I become the most popular commodity ever in the live stream hosted on the dark web. As the live comments flood the screen and the viewers keep tipping the live stream, I feel my legs being forced open inch by inch. The electric chair beneath me keeps pulsing me with jolts of electricity, making me tremble uncontrollably. Men keep rearranging my limbs however they want in various positions. Then, they put me through all sorts of torture, as if I'm not a human being at all. Once everything is over, I can only curl into a small ball in a corner of the iron cage. My clothes are completely disheveled, and my gaze remains hollow and lifeless. That's when I hear someone speaking in Elythran, a language I'm familiar with. "Haha! That chick still thinks she can escape from this place!" "To think that the mafia princess of Elythra ends up getting lured to this place and reduced to a common whore for us to toy with! Those brothers really are ruthless!" "I heard the brothers did this just to appease their adopted younger sister, Emilia Ricci. That's why they ordered us to put up a show. Even the people tipping on the live stream are actors they've hired to make this show perfect." "This idiot is still waiting for her brothers to come rescue her! Last night, she kept crying out to them in her sleep, begging them to save her!" As the henchmen speak, they open the door to my room, only to be stunned by the blood-stained floor. Immediately, they dig out their phones and begin dialing numbers anxiously. The moment I make out one of the numbers, I feel my blood turn into ice. It appears that the so-called abduction is just a show that my brothers have put on just to appease Emilia… I can feel blood rising in my throat. As my vision goes blurry, I think I see another man's gentle expression. That's the memory that I've kept buried deep inside my heart—the memory of my actual older brother, Silvio Gallo.

I'm forced by my mother, Karen Brown, to raise Matt Brown, my uncle Jared Brown's illegitimate son. She justifies the coercion by saying that family should always help each other. I sacrifice everything to raise Matt for over a decade, only to discover that he despises me. It stems entirely from Mom and Uncle Jared telling him that I'm raising him with ulterior motives, that I'll be able to get back double the amount of money I spend on him in the future. I'm lecturing Matt once more about studying hard when he suddenly lashes out in frustration and murders me. Mom and Uncle Jared not only cover up for Matt, but they also take all my assets for themselves. I'm definitely not raising anyone's child now that I have been reborn, as the parents should raise their own child. It has nothing to do with me!

In my previous life, I had been suffering from a terminal illness when I won the lottery.  To my shock, Mommy advised me to forgo treatment and leave the winnings to my younger brother, David, to use for his marriage.  I refused to become an accessory to his future, so, behind my parents’ backs, I donated every bit of it to an orphanage.  When they found out, they were furious. They called me a heartless, ungrateful wretch.  After severing ties with me, they abandoned me at the hospital. On David's birthday, they gathered as a family and celebrated him while I was left to die in the hospital, utterly alone. When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back on the day I had won the lottery.  Recalling the pain and betrayal of my past life, I resolved to leave my parents that very day.  But to my surprise, when I returned home, they had completely changed.  They doted on me and showered me with affection.

My parents' enemy kidnapped me and live-streamed cutting off my fingers, just to force them to show up. For a time, the entire internet was searching for my parents. But what no one knew was that the police chief on the live connection was my real father. At that very moment, he was on a beach in Havai, lighting fireworks for his adopted son. And on their barbecue table, the live stream of my fingers being cut off was playing. Later, I survived long enough to be rescued, and I reached out with my severed fingers, wanting to touch my parents. But they recoiled in disgust and, without so much as a backward glance, took their adopted son out for steak. What they never realized was that hidden inside my severed fingers was something that would make them regret everything.
