The Kings of New Orleans are viciously fighting for control of the city, sending the crime rate skyrocketing. Among them, a benevolent doctor called the French Quarter King uses his resources to employ colorful Jesters to achieve his mission. Having groomed them from scared boys into strong, confident, dangerous men, their talents in mortal combat, law enforcement, and political leadership serve their King well. As victims of a horrific crime committed while Hurricane Katrina raged against the city, the Jesters didn’t realize their fates would be sealed on that chaotic August day in 2005. Now, over 10 years later, their King’s operation is in full swing.
In Episode One of the series, we learn about Michael Vengeance, a.k.a. “The Black Jester.” Michael’s expert skills in Mixed Martial Arts, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, knives, and Chinese throwing stars elevate him to the most lethal member of the team. Subject to violent mood swings due to his identity disorder, the other Jesters struggle to keep him in check while they enact their duties.
The Black Jester becomes the police’s main suspect in the murders of dozens of shady businessmen in the city. On the run and scared, a young woman named Rose White finds herself caught up with the vigilante and entangled in the perilous power struggle within the city. The Black Jester’s instinct to protect the young woman may cause her more harm than good as he struggles to reconcile his personalities.
To the misfortune of the Jesters, one man catches a glimpse of their operation. Detective Ron Jenkins of the New Orleans Police Department is able to tie Rose to the aggressively hunted vigilante. He must determine her role in the situation in hopes he can find out who the Black Jester is before the body count reaches epic proportions.

"Say, Officer. If one day, those who held us by our necks finally made every deviant thing a crime, what will you be guilty of?" When Aaric Cross gets reassigned into Eastchapel City Police's Crime Investigation Department, he never realized how much of the actual job he missed just from his uncle, Alberth's continuous protection over him for the past years of his police career.

One of the vigilantes in this chase is a woman behind the sobriquet, Scarlet Foxtrot, who recently made name across the city for breaking into government officials' offices but leaving no traces and even motives. No one figured out how to catch her which made her rise through the ranks having the most sought-after head until she started signing her visit and later on, murder, of one police officer. Aaric soon finds himself entangled in a web of long-running corruption, oppression, and sex slavery within the city that he was never given the chance to hear before. All of which happens just by trying to uncover the mysteries that surround Rue, a woman who always appeared to be related to each succeeding Scarlet Foxtrot murder case.# *** "It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong." ―Voltaire, The Age of Louis XIV SCARLET BLOOD IS THE FIRST SEASON OF ALEPHComplete

Dont Be a Hero
Detective Jackson Wolfe thought he had stepped into the pages of a comic book. The first indication was the unlikely partner he'd been paired with. Macy Grey was a seemingly naive, annoying-yet-beautiful blonde Betty Boop. He was further astounded when he learned the nature of their department. He had been assigned to the highly confidential and brand new V.S.I.D... or The Vigilante and Super-human Investigations Department. Wait... what? Did old Chief Munson have a sense of humor after all? Were they pranking the "new kid on the block"? Jackson didn't buy it. "Go forth! Track down and arrest thee Spiderman... and his cohorts!". Well, it was no prank. What's more, it didn't prove to be an easy task. The alleged "super-powered" vigilantes were apparently much better equipped and far better trained than the police or F.B.I's most valued and effective members. This just fueled the desire to put a stop to them. After all, no one should be allowed to apprehend criminals without doing mountains of paperwork!Complete

I kneel in front of him and instantly unbuckle his belt and unzip his black pants. He watches me eagerly from above, keeping his hands to his side, letting me lead. "Are you jealous when I flirt with those men for information?" I bat my eyes up at him innocently as I pull his pants down to his knees. His face hardens as he considers my question. "I don't like your hands on them." He grumbles and I smirk. I already knew the answer. "I do it for you, Enzo." I remind him as I move my mouth closer to him. "Only me." He growls as he pulls my head forward, closing the space between us. ~~~ When a dangerous mafia leader meets this particular stripper, he learns she is anything but.
