20 parts Complete
"With his death I nearly met mine. Till revenge told me to behead the King." Cameron Martinez, an unnoticed girl who lives in Chicago which seems to be Gang Headquarters for the most dangerous gangsters in America. Her oldest brother, Leon, used to be one of them and died because of it, shot in an alley late at night, alone. Leon supported the Martinez family with his earnings from being a gang member while their mother bought dope. With Leon gone, Cameron and her six siblings have rough times financially. She can do one of three things. 1. Join Leon's old gang, the Chicago Kings. 2. Be a stripper like her mother 3. Become a thief Since the first two don't remotely please her, Cameron went with the third choice. But she doesn't steal petty things such as wallets, T.Vs or anything so cheap. She decides to take from those who took the most precious thing from her; the gangs that haunt the streets and terrorize Chicago's citizens. Cameron goes around emptying the pockets of gangsters, stealing the dirty money they don't deserve. Yes, she realizes how dangerous and dumb this is, but she won't let her family starve. People will eventually see Cameron Martinez as a vigilante heroine, but it was never she who did those kind acts. She can't understand how they could think remarkably high of her when she merely wants to put food on the table. * Robbing gangs isn't smart, at all. When the Chicago Kings hear of Cam's doings, they get worried and paranoid. If one insignificant little girl has the balls to steal from them, what will stop everyone else? When Angel Montez, CK enforcer and Leon's best friend gets the command to kill the Vigilante Heroine he has a clear order. One he fully intended to follow through with. What he didn't plan was being interested in her or that she's the younger sister of the dear friend he lost. Now Angel must pick his own destiny instead of following another.

City of Lintunericului by Gwenlily
45 parts Complete Mature
Lintunericului is ruled by the biggest mafia it has ever come across, Rome. With a weak government and the mafias running all over the city, newer ones crawling from the sewers everyday, it is not safe for one to walk the streets alone, even live alone. Doors and windows are shut and locked securely before sundown and numerous deaths are reported on the news every week, robberies and beatings even higher. Countless years have been wasted trying to cleanse the streets of the city of the mafia and gangs, but to no avail. The people lost all hope for a better city when the Rome leader got onto the council, controlling the chairmen with an iron fist, having a say in every little thing that happened. But, despite Rome being the biggest mafia in the city, they could not even keep their own boss's son safe. Young Prince disappeared at the age of seven, shortly when his training had begun and reappeared half-dead a year later on his father's doorstep, a gag on his mouth and his hands and feet tied so tightly, blood dripped from the wounds. It was a warning to Boss Hejen, that despite them being the biggest mafia, they were not the strongest, their rival successfully kidnapped his son and returned him a year later all while leaving no traces. They could not find Prince in one year and the only way they got him back was because the Wolves had returned him. To keep his son from ever being harmed again Hejen made the decision to join the council to have more control, to show his power to his rivals. The night of his son's return he sent out his strongest men and the water in the drains overflowed with blood that night from the slaughter of many Wolves members, a silent warning to never mess with them again.

A young Sofia Merlini watches as her family and fellow Doves are burnt alive before her on crimes of heresy and witchcraft, and remembering the man's face, she vows revenge against those who destroyed her life.

An opportunity arises when the hitman, Dario Oberto, brings her to Rome to work in his father, Rodrigo Borgia's court, now known as Pope Alexander VI.

But she soon realises that nothing is at it seems, even of those who raised her and when her heart opens for a man with Borgia blood running through him, her goal changes and Sofia finds herself fighting a battle on two fronts.
