Harley is not the type of girl to enjoy parties, social gatherings, or family gatherings for that matter. She's a lockpick and a thief, borrower if you please, for the fun of it. She takes what she wants, does what she pleases. Comes and goes, from the clocktower in New York when she needs a place to escape her batshit-insane father.
So when she takes a simple job from a mysterious stranger, the last thing she expects, or wants, is to get tangled in a complicated web of lies formed by the New York branch of the mafia.
Worse? She's going to have to ask for help to get out.

A mistake like this will get a lot of people killed. "I asked you a fucking question, didn't I? I don't like repeating myself." I growled as I grabbed her small face in my hand, making her eye shut in pain. "Harley. Harley Anderson," she spat softly like an angered kitten. Harley. I let her name roll over my tongue for a while. Every second that passed made my vision go black with anger. I looked away from her face before releasing the hold I had on her.
