By His grace is a story that follows a family who were under the grace of a drug lord and politician Mr. Ojaga.
The story plays out that the intimidation from the drug lord became too much and daunting on the people of the suburb. Efosa, a teenager under his grace, decided to rebel against Ojaga. The story drags on until he was kidnapped. The other son promised to do everything the lord asked as long as his younger brother is spared and allowed to go home and repent.
While his elder brother sacrificed himself to become the drug lord's lap dog, the younger brother who just got his life back did not learn anything from being held captive, tortured and almost killed. He started investigating the drug lord trying to secure evidences and facts to implicate and destroy the cartel.
With the help of a top tier female Journalist and Detective, he was able to get substantial evidence that could bring down the cartel. Luckily, they cross paths with a vengeance-filled super officer of the law who along the line was revealed to have an unsettled score with the drug lord. With these evidences presented before him, he furthered his course for vengeance through the right procedures of course. He secured a super warrant that enabled him carry out a thorough investigation on the drug lord. He sought out friends from other law enforcement agencies like the NDLEA and EFCC, and together they solidified their evidence and arrested him.
He was later presented to court where he was found guilty of all sorts of gang orchestrated crimes, drugs, human trafficking, money laundry amongst others.

The Firdaus brothers run an empire built on honour, secrets, and the occasional violation of international law. On paper, they appear to be legitimate businessmen.

Bound by the ancient Tawla rules of a secret society and a strict code of conduct. Betrayal is met with a single, unforgiving consequence: death. After a seventeen-year exile, Sinan, the eldest brother, returns to find his once-familiar world irrevocably transformed. A drug lord declaring rivalry, his younger brothers turning grey from stress, and his only son falling for the one girl he shouldn't be near. Meanwhile, the next generation of Firdaus heirs is trying to survive high school, trauma, and the occasional kidnapping, all while preparing to inherit a criminal empire. Rule #20: Secrets here are like currency. And the Firdauses are filthy rich. This is loyalty, legacy, and what happens when you try to raise emotionally stable children in an emotionally unstable environment. Nobody is normal. Everyone is armed. And family dinners are never a dull moment. Will the heirs rise to claim their destiny, or will the sins of the past destroy them all?

His finger trailed up my thigh ever so gently causing my pussy complete torture. He knew what he was doing. He knew this was driving me completely crazy. Just as his fingers were trying to push past my underwear my hand grabbed onto his wrist. "Don't," I warned, in a low voice making sure nobody would notice. "Watch me fuck you in front of every single person here unless Tobias stops looking at you like that." He explained. I glanced over to Tobias who was looking angrier than ever. If Tobias didn't stop looking at me not only would my husband keep to his word, someone would send a bullet through his skull. *+*+* Scarlett Salvadore was to be married to a man she hated with all her heart to increase her father's power.

Marco is a man for casual flings to sate his carnal desires, whereas his friends constantly attempt to set him up. Something which he finds irking because it's "Always flings. Never commitment."

But with Sofia around, he can wave peace goodbye because that girl drags chaos with her wherever she walks. Something...which seriously tests usually patient Marco's limitations--which coincidentally happen to be wearing thin.
