Back in high school, Samaya Martin was no exception to the old saying, "Every girl loves a bad boy." The only issue is that the "bad boy" grew up to be the sadistic and bloodthirsty drug lord of the Coup D'tat Gang, Damian Richardson. Over the years, Samaya has had to sit back and watch the streets transform him into someone unrecognizable from the teenager she fell in love with as he bathed the streets red in a river of the blood and corpses of anyone who'd dare cross him.
Tired of all his cheating, abuse, and neglect, she turns to the only person who understands her pain, Taryll. Taryll Cunningham got caught up in the drug game with Damian. Throughout it all, he's served as Damian's number one runner, his enforcer, and his right-hand man- which is why having an affair with Samaya is the very last thing he should be doing. He can't control his heart and the two have a deeper connection than just a lustful affair. It's a connection that if Damian found out the truth, he'd make sure that their souls wouldn't receive eternal rest.
Driven by love, their connection, and done with the drug game, Samaya and Taryll decide to run away. Abandoned by his two most trusted and enraged, Damian ensures that Samaya pays the full price for sneaking off with a drug lord's hitta.
