Sinai Wilkins lives in the most middle-class neighborhood ever seen. All the houses on her street look exactly the same, with prim, perfect lawns, and even more perfect families. On the Christmas cards, social media, and outside life in general, everyone seems to have it all together. Even her family, who so happens to have a drug addict and a severely depressed person for children, a selfish, perfectionist mother, and a completely oblivious father. Everyone on the block has skeletons in their closets, and Sinai's family closet is bursting at the hinges. What happens when their perfect world comes crumbling down before their eyes? Will the neighbors come clean as well, or just judge from behind the white picket fences? Suburbia isn't always pretty.

The Sirens Game
"I hated being called his Rosa. Every man that had me for a night was sure to remind me that I wasn't human anymore. I wasn't a person anymore. I mean how could I be? A person has a soul, and by that time I had already gave it up to the devil." Jade explains her voice cold and emotionlessly. "It's either that or they take your soul anyway along with your virginity, happiness, innocence, and everything that made you, you. They strip you until you're nothing but just a body to use." Iris words fill the room as she makes her way on the other side of Jade. "They break you." A girl with brown hair says softly and put eyes snap to her. "They may do every single disgusting you can imagine to you." I state looking in her eyes. "And they may have beat you to a point where you are unrecognizable." Iris chimes in. "But I swear to God himself they can never ever break you." Jade states her voice fueling strength. Monsters attracts monsters. Madness attracts mayhem. Broken attracts broken. Jade, Iris, and Scarlett aka The Sirens. The mafia world knows about them. You call them when you want a crime family wiped off the earth. You call them when you want an untouchable person dead.

You V.S. Mafia
[COMPLETED] "Shoot," Joey mumbles, letting out a string of profanities under his breath. We turn around to find a group of men, all with guns, standing where we just came from, and they look pissed... probably because they were forced to run through this tunnel after us. "Thought you could get away, didn't you?" The man who I saw before asks. His husky voice booms in the hollow tunnel, reverberating off of the dirt walls. His voice sounds familiar, and a realization strikes me. It sounds like the man from my dream. I remember him holding a gun and wearing a blue suit, smiling evilly at me. "Leave us alone," Joey says, sounding dangerous and snapping me out of my thoughts. The levity of the situation hits-we need to get out of here. I look around for a route of escape and thankfully I see a light, literally, at the end of the second tunnel. I let out a small, almost inaudible, gasp and nudge Joey. He looks at me and I subtly gesture with my head to the second tunnel. He glances at it and immediately we are on the same page. His jaw sets and he looks at the group. The man speaks up again, chuckling darkly-a sound I will never forget and will be permanently etched into my brain, "You can thank your father for starting this mess." -------------------------- Liza was a normal teenaged girl, living the average life that an eighteen year old girl should be living.
