Gang Queen

Chicago

-author's note-

Hey! If anyone is reading this I want to let you know that is all strictly fiction. I know nothing about Chicago and little to nothing about gangs. This is all from my imagination and is loosely based in Chicago, I just needed a setting where I could develop a story. So please don't hate me because I'm creating my own city and calling it Chicago! Please and thanks.

Brielle's pov

I watch as we pull past the huge iron gate that open to my new home. It's a huge, perfect house, almost big enough to be a mansion. That doesn't really matter because I don't plan to stay very long.

I was forced to move with my older brothers, Helix and Derrick. Helix is my legal guardian because I was only 12 when my parents died.

Helix was freshly 18 when they were killed, Derrick was 16. My parents were killed in a gang related car 'accident'. They were being followed, and just before they made it home they were crushed between the following car and a car coming the wrong way on a one way bridge.

Shortly after the 'accident', the war started raging in Chicago for the West side territory.

Now here we are, 2018, 5 years after my parents death. My brother Helix, now 23, is one of the most feared men in Chicago, and we just arrived 10 minutes ago.

Im grateful to Helix for basically raising me, but I begged him to leave me in Colorado so I could finish my senior year at Clover valley high.

Now I'm going to Bridgeport High right in the center of Chicago. My brother has already warned me to keep my head down and stay out of trouble because Bridgeport is the school all the gang kids attend.

I walk up the marble stairs to the front doors of the house. Pushing the doors open I explore the house.

I go up more marble stairs to the second floor of the large house. I choose the very back room of the house down several hallways. I like my peace and quiet.

I have one of the "goons", as I like to call my brothers gang members, bring my bags to my new room.

I walk out onto the balcony that hangs off the side of my room. It over looks the huge pool in the backyard. It looks like a kid use to live here; huge pool, trampoline, playground, and a huge wooded area with 4 wheelers.

Perfect for Helix's daughter, Adrianna, who is 5.

Helix has a wife if 3 years, shontelle, also known as Rose, her stripper name. Mother of Adrianna, and ring leader's wife.

I get settled in just as Helix and Derrick welcome themselves into my room. They see me perched in my window seat that I requested for my reading.

"Feeling at home yet?" Helix asks ruining the silence.

"Sure" I lie.

"Good, because there is a gang meeting downstairs in 30 minutes. I would like you to be present, and looking presentable." Helix says

I turn to him, eyes ablaze.

"Why?" I ask

"I have a plan, it involves you" he says

"No." I tell him

"Brielle, you are my sister and I love you, but you follow my rules like everyone else in the gang." He reminds me

"I'm not a part of the gang, I'm your family" I spit at him

"Gang and family are the same thing. Now don't argue, you are a part of this gang whether you want to believe it or not. You will always be in harms way and I'm trying to protect you from it." He explains
