If the Projects could talk, they would have told her eons ago; that the road she had been headed down would lead to her own self destruction.

They would have warned her, in light whispers that the friends she called her own would have betrayed her; that the family she kept would have abandoned her, and that the man she had found herself falling in love with; would have easily proven to be her biggest downfall.

They would have told her from a young age, before she had gotten caught up in the life that no one could escape; that things don't always go according to plan, and in the projects:
There are no happy endings.

But sadly; the walls surrounding her everyday childhood had not, or could not utter a single word. Therefore; the woman had received no forewarning to the hell her life would soon become the moment she had been birthed, and instead she had found out the hard way, by simply:

Living it.

FREDDY PRINCE by WesleySnipesJr
18 parts Complete
Freddy Prince follows the journey of a strong black activist whose mother paved the way for him to enforce the protection of women. After his mother was murdered, Freddy was thrust into a whirlwind of emotions and a blood-money contract with Mayor Montgomery. When Freddy could no longer contest digging into the murder of Kalani's mother, he started to unravel some truths; truths that made him suspect Mayor Montgomery might have killed his mother too. That same truth was something Freddy and his sister argued about for years after their mother's death. In the beginning, he turned down Kalani's request for help because the NDA forbade him to speak about Mayor Montgomery. However, when Kalani reminded him of all his mother stood for and how many people she helped in their community, Freddy could no longer refuse. It also helped that Kalani was a gorgeous woman with a rich soul. During their quest for answers, things turned tragic. Freddy's sister was murdered after getting too close to the truth, and he was left to care for his teenage niece. Feeling lost and hopeless without the two people he knew all his life, Freddy spiraled. His search for the truth came to a halt, and he blamed Kalani for the wicked tales of unfortunate events in his life. Despite Freddy's will to give up, Kalani's hunt never stopped. She continued piecing together the clues and found out about Freddy's agreement with her father. Her mind was blown; she couldn't believe it. A man who claimed to be an advocate for women accepted hush money to keep the murder of one concealed? In her eyes, Freddy was a hypocrite and just as bad as her father. In the end, Freddy learned that Mayor Montgomery had more than just their NDA in his pocket; he also had a member of Freddy's family tree there as well. After his mother's journal surfaced and he was able to piece together the puzzle, Freddy learned a hard truth about what he thought was reality.
