Story Description: “Blood Bonds”
Harry Blackthorne is a man of duality. In the shadows, he is a ruthless mafia boss, commanding fear and respect across the underworld. But at home, he is a single father to his 17-year-old son, Oliver, who has autism and the mind of a 7-year-old. Harry’s life revolves around Oliver’s unique needs. The boy avoids eye contact, overwhelmed by the intensity of it, and his world is built on routines that give him a sense of control. He wears his blue noise-canceling headphones at all times to shield himself from an overstimulating world and flinches away from touch, which feels unbearable to him.
Though Oliver is physically 17, his understanding of the world is that of a much younger child. He can’t complete basic tasks on his own, requiring constant supervision. His fiery red hair and piercing red eyes, inherited from his father, stand out, but they hide the vulnerability of a boy who struggles to connect with a world that feels too loud, too bright, and too chaotic. When he experiences a meltdown—moments of emotional overwhelm that can turn violent—it becomes dangerous for him and those around him, leaving Harry to pick up the pieces.
Harry’s immense wealth and power mean little in the face of Oliver’s needs. Balancing his criminal empire and his role as a father is a tightrope act that threatens to crumble. When the demands of his dangerous work become too much, Harry hires a nanny: Tulip Graves. A seemingly kind and capable woman with blonde hair and red eyes, Tulip quickly begins to win Oliver’s trust—despite his aversion to new people. What Harry doesn’t know is that Tulip is a spy, sent to infiltrate his empire under the guise of caregiving.
Tulip expects treachery and danger, but what she doesn’t anticipate is Oliver’s fragile, innocent world. She learns to navigate his needs with patience, respecting his aversion to eye contact and his rigid boundaries. As she grows closer to the boy, she begins to see another side of Harry—a side that contradicts his reputation as a cold-blooded killer. The deeper she gets, the more she questions her mission, especially as her presence brings an unspoken warmth into the fractured family.
But in a world where secrets are deadly and trust is rare, Tulip and Harry’s lies are bound to unravel. As Oliver becomes a pawn in the shadows of Harry’s empire, the fragile bond between them all will be tested in ways that could either shatter or save them.
“Blood Bonds” is a gripping tale of loyalty, redemption, and the delicate threads of connection between a father, his son, and a woman caught between them.
Style: ANIME
INCLUDE A LOT OF SPEECH!!!!
Start with prologue of how Tulip amd Harry meet. Harry has red hair and red eyes like Oliver. Tulip has blonde hair and blue eyes
Here’s a prologue based on your story description, incorporating dialogue and an anime style:
Prologue: The Interview
The scent of expensive cigars hung heavy in the air, a stark contrast to the sterile cleanliness of the room. Harry Blackthorne, a man whose red hair seemed to burn as brightly as his eyes, leaned back in his chair, the leather creaking a low, almost menacing sound. He steepled his fingers, his gaze unwavering as he studied Tulip Graves.
Go to episode 1. MAKE THEM ALL LOOK LIKE HOW DESCRIBED IN DESCRIPTION DO NOT CHANGE!!!!! Harry (fancy suit. Red hair and red eyes) invites Tulip (fancy woman suit. Blonde hair and blue eyes) to his room so that Harry can explain Oliver’s autism in more detail.
Episode 1: A Father’s Plea
Skip ahead to a scene showing Tulip interacting with Oliver. Oliver (teenager wearing blue noise cancelling headphones and a shirt that say Cheno, brand name), Tulip (blonde hair and blue eyes wearing a dress) are sat on a bench in the park
Zoom in on Oliver (red scruffy hair and red eyes, still wearing his Cheno shirt and his blue noise cancelling headphones). And describe how he is feeling at that moment with Tulip
Despite the noise-canceling headphones, a sense of quiet unease still clings to Oliver. The world is still a cacophony of sensations even muffled. Yet, Tulip’s presence is a soft counterpoint to the usual jarring chaos. He isn’t entirely comfortable—the proximity of another person still feels intrusive—but Tulip’s quiet stillness and respectful distance create a small pocket of calm he’s beginning to cautiously tolerate. He is registering her presence without the usual overwhelming sensory overload. It’s a subtle shift, a tiny crack in the wall of his sensory defensiveness. He’s not happy, per se, but he’s not actively distressed either. It’s a neutral space, a fragile equilibrium.
Continue the story episode two. Oliver (red hair and red eyes wearing his black cheno, brand name, shirt. HIS HEADPHONES ARE NOT ON!!!) Is playing with his lego’s on the table in the living room whilst Tulip (blonde hair and blue eyes wearing a dress) and Harry (red hair and red eyes wearing a grey hoodie) are chatting in his office when they hear Oliver’s distressed scream
Episode Two: A Crack in the Calm
The gentle click-clack of Lego bricks provided a surprisingly peaceful soundtrack to the hushed conversation between Harry and Tulip. Harry, surprisingly casual in a grey hoodie, leaned back in his office chair, his usual sharp demeanor softened by a weary contentment. Tulip, in a simple floral dress, sipped her tea, her blue eyes thoughtful as she listened to Harry’s explanation of Oliver’s triggers. The scene was a fragile peace, a rare moment of calm in their tumultuous lives.
Continue to the next episode were Harry (red hair and red eyes with small red hairs on his chin was wearing a suit talking to Oliver’s soon to be head mistress (who was wearing a cream coloured dress suit. She has bown hair and green eyes and her hair was tied in a ponytail) in her office. He was talking about Oliver’s autism and his learning disability, how his mind is that of a 7 year old and how he has to go to special classes and his violent meltdowns and episodes.
Harry leaned forward, his red eyes intense as he spoke. “His meltdowns… they can be violent. He doesn’t understand the consequences of his actions during those episodes. It’s terrifying, for him and for everyone around him.” He paused, running a hand through his already disheveled red hair. The headmistress listened attentively, her green eyes reflecting her understanding of the gravity of the situation. “We need to find a way to manage these episodes, to create a safe and structured environment for him,” she said, her voice calm yet firm. “We’re prepared to work closely with you and provide him with the support he needs.”
Continue the conversation between Harry (red hair and red eyes wearing a fancy suit) and the headmistress (who had brown hair which was tied up in a ponytail. She was wearing a cream coloured suit dress). Still in her office
““He’s… different,” Harry says, his voice rough around the edges. He runs a hand through his already unruly red hair. “Seven years old in a seventeen-year-old’s body. He understands the world on that level. Simple tasks… they’re impossible for him. He needs constant supervision.” He pauses, taking a deep breath. “The meltdowns… they’re terrifying. He’s strong, incredibly strong, and when he’s overwhelmed… well, it’s dangerous for everyone involved.”
The headmistress nods slowly, her gaze never leaving Harry’s face. “I understand. We’ve worked with children with similar challenges before. We have specialized programs designed to cater to their individual needs. We focus on building coping mechanisms, managing sensory overload, and developing communication skills.” She leans forward, her expression softening. “We’ll create a personalized learning plan for Oliver, focusing on his strengths and addressing his specific challenges. We’ll work closely with you to ensure a smooth transition and provide the necessary support.”
Harry stares at her, a flicker of hope in his red eyes. The weight of his responsibilities seems to lessen slightly. “And the violence?” he asks, his voice barely a whisper.
“We have strategies in place to de-escalate situations and ensure the safety of both Oliver and the other students. We’ll work with you to develop a plan that addresses his triggers and teaches him alternative ways of expressing his frustration.” The headmistress offers a reassuring smile. “We’re confident we can provide Oliver with the care and support he needs to thrive.”
