Takes place after S1 finale. Deran gets kidnapped and we find out how much the younger Cody brother really means to the family. Deran/Adrian centric. Rating will probably change later. (A/N Thanks for all your encouraging reviews! They mean a lot. I'm sorry for the long delay and short chapters but I'm really busy at work these days. Thanks again).

Josie and her brother, J, get more than they expected when they moved in with their grandmother and uncles. Can they hold their own or will they shatter and fall? CraigxOC

A timely death leads to a freedom she has never known, and an increase in family with the gift of a grandmother and four uncles. But things are never what they seem. The Cody's are more than just the fun loving, carefree family they portray. Something darker lurks beneath the surface. She knows that freedom always comes with a price, and hers will be a loyalty that knows no bounds.
