When five young people who cannot stand each other are summoned together to fulfill their duty in the momentous event of their life, they must learn to get along to form an alliance despite having grown up together. 

For the sake of their families' happiness, they were ready to bend over backwards. Because parental approval can make the most of us do strange things. 

Now that they are obligated to live in a house, they often found themselves in harmful predicaments. Something always seemed to happen to bring them hand in hand. In the midst of it all, an innocent friendship blossoms. Love happens. However, the blissfulness is short-lived.

Their loyalty and camaraderie are questioned when a tragedy befalls. Blood is spilled. The darkest secrets are revealed. And they are forced to get their hands dirty. 

Soon enough, virtues and morals are tested, and friendship will be overlooked as they are pitted against each other by the weight of protecting their loved ones. If anything, someone with everything to lose is scarier than someone with nothing to lose.

How far will they go to protect and grasp what isn't theirs?

Was all the trouble for power and wealth worth it? Will the hunger for wealth ever be enough?

As the saying goes, 'Where there is wealth, there is crime.'

WORK IN PROGRESS‼️ ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ── There was no noise; I was at peace, and ironically, the stone-cold pavement never seemed warmer as my blood oozed out of me and around me like a painted canvas. I was slowly losing consciousness, but my mind never seemed happier now that I was dying. The white walls with big bright lights did not resemble heaven; in fact, it was quite the opposite. I thought I had died. When I came to, I found myself in this strange place, disoriented and confused. I looked around and found another five pairs of eyes looking at me with the same emotion swirling in their gaze. Now, 15 years later, I train with these girls. Our makers take care of us, feed us, and make sure we are clean, healthy, and fit. Some of us never had that; that's probably why it took so long for us to realize we were being used. The dirty work they made us do, none of us questioned it. How could we when we were taken off the streets? For a chance at normalcy, we settled for anything, even if that meant blurring the lines of right and wrong. After a mission gone haywire, we started noticing, and now we strike back to take our voices and reclaim the power that was used on us as a way to control us. After all, they are the ones who trained us; we are just returning our long-overdue favour. ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ── Rankings : Featured in Mystery-thriller #5 in Mystery-thriller on 7/12/24
