At the age of 10, Belladonna and her closest friends Keshawn and Renee managed to escape their orphanage. They wandered in the streets for eight days and almost starved until that fateful day. A group of thugs passed by this same alley and they took Belladonna and Keshawn in. The group of thugs they had met turned out to be members of a gang called Silvers. They get new names and a new life but their gang is threatened by their opponents: The Rox Gang. For years their rivalry has been going and they're no way near the end of it.

"This is my story. Well not just mine. It's also my friends and family's story. I still remember the day my life changed forever. There's no way I'd forget this date. July 17th. I'm 18 now and so much more shit has happened since then. "

Tamika King born Belladonna, an orphan who managed to escape the orphanage with her two close friends, struggles to find her way in the midst of her emotions, gang life and life as a new adult citizen of her city.
