Deal With The Devil

Alena had grown up in what most would call a broken household. Her parents had drinking problems. Her father's problems were much more apparent than her mother's, but the both of them made sure to manage to get involved in something much larger than either of them. Their debts had been built up that they both began to gamble. Their solution landed themselves in more debt with much more dangerous people than the government. Being involved in organized crime is something Alena would have never considered in her life, but when James Wesley came to her doorstep, threatening the death of her siblings that she had spent so much effort to keep away from her parent's second life, she had no other choice. Her degree in law lended her a helpful advantage over those who had the same offer with much less expertise. Alena landed herself a job winning court cases for criminals. While the job would usually be well paying, having three quarters of her pay check go towards paying off her parents debts did not allow her such luxuries that would commonly come with the positon. Her life never had a dull moment in her childhood, but the common thought that she could lay low in her adulthood would very soon be proven wrong when she makes friends with some interesting people.
