Prologue

“Hey, look over there,” a man pointed to a random passerby.

Daniel Jones looked at the direction where his best mate was pointing.

It was a teenage girl of about fourteen years of age, she was walking down the sidewalk of the disgusting streets of The Projects.

She had gold chestnut colored hair that cascaded slightly down her mid back.

He could tell that under all that grungy clothes she had a pretty developed body for her age.

“Just give her a couple more years to do some growing up, and I bet you, she’ll end up like one of them girls Riko always brings.”

We both think alike, we both have the same features that girls swoon over and other guys envy.

I suddenly turned around to speak to the store manager.

“Hey Roger, I’ll make a deal with you.” I looked the old man straight in the eyes.

Apprehension swirled in his eyes. “What’s the catch?”

“I’ll give you two more weeks to get that money to me,” he suddenly nodded eagerly, happy for the extension.

If you give me all the details on that girl.” I nodded at the direction of the girl. He turned around to look at the said person.

“Her?” he turned an incredulous expression me, “that girl is barely fifteen!” he jerked his thumb in her direction, “aren’t you a little too old for her?”

I slammed my fist on his face hard, “Learn how to mind your own fucking business.”

2 weeks later…

A small little apartment that was in no better condition than the rest of the place was at the end of the hallway.

I knocked and waited in front of a door that looked beaten up before a grungy old man that reeked strongly of alcohol opened the door.

He had a stain on his white shirt that was poorly hiding his protruding pot belly.

“Yeah? What’dya want?”

“Are you Cornell?”

Stepping inside the small place I went straight to the point.

“I’m here to make you an offer,” he raised an eyebrow.

I continued on calmly, “I’m willing to give you 10 grand if you do something for me.”

“How the hell can a guy like you give me 10 grand? Fuck that, where you going to get it from?” he abruptly cut me off, looking me up and down in doubt.

“You seemed to underestimate me Mr. Cornell, let me introduce myself, my name’s Daniel Jones.”

As surprise gradually entered his eyes, I knew I had him where I wanted him.

After all, these people start shaking in the knees once they hear my name, a dangerous drug lords’ only heir.


Please review! I wanna know if it's interesting or not! Just a heads up, I already have chapter one waiting!
