Brothers. Deadly beasts. Women destined to tame them. In the shadows of Cape Town's underworld, the Zibandlela brothers are feared, powerful, and unstoppable-except when it comes to love. Marked by ancestral symbols, the women who enter their lives are the only ones who can calm their feral alter egos-and survive the secrets that haunt their past. Passion, power, and danger collide in a story where love is the ultimate battlefield-and only the strongest hearts endure.

Look, this book? It's a love letter to the township - but don't get it twisted; you don't have to be from here to get it. Whether you're chilling in a fancy villa in Spain or hustling somewhere else, these stories speak to you because love and struggle? They don't check your address. This is a free zone. If you don't vibe with it, no worries, the township will still be here, doing its thing, surviving and thriving, with or without you. And me? I give thanks to the same streets that raised me. Even when I'm sitting in my office, switching between languages like a pro, deep down, I'm still that township boy - sharp, stubborn, and full of stories to tell. Each chapter is a day in the life of people who refuse to be boxed in by their pasts. It's messy, real, and sometimes raw - but always honest. So, pull up a chair, open your mind, and maybe, just maybe, you'll see yourself in these pages.

To choose between love and duty, which will come first?

He was frustrated, his brown eyes burning with passion. His words, I don't know how he did it but they always got to me. They always pulled from me. My eyes welled with tears. "Which people?"
