When family is on the line, Alexis doesn't hesitate to get her hands dirty. Growing up in foster care, she learned the hard way-the only person she can trust is herself... and her siblings. But when one reckless mistake puts them all in danger, she's desperate for a way out. And that comes in the form of Desmond Woods- renowned billionaire and politician. His problem? With a governorship election on the horizon, everything needs to be perfect. But something is off with his son-and Desmond doesn't like unknown variables. His deal? Move into his estate. Keep tabs on his son. Report back. Her payout? Her siblings get the safety they deserve. Simple, right? Wrong Nothing about the Woods family is simple. Damon Woods is perfect-too perfect... At least when he's not being a pain in the ass. He's the picture-perfect son, following every step in his father's carefully laid path. What he could possibly be hiding? Alexis has no idea. But a deal is a deal. And there's no backing out. She should focus on Damon. Instead, she stumbles onto something bigger. Something dangerous. Something that has nothing to do with the Woods family-yet somehow, they're right in the middle of it. And now? So is she. Some secrets are meant to stay buried. And Alexis might not survive digging this one up. ---

He rushes behind a car as I'm shooting at him as he's shooting while running away. "Imma Kill You Manny!" I growl at him angrily as I keep firing shots as my gun clicks. "Fuck." I grumbled as I duck behind a car as well. I take out my magazine as I started to load it quickly not caring about my finger prints being on them. He reloaded as well as he must've had a extra clip because he immediately started firing again. Glass shattering as Shayla was laying on the ground balled up. --------------------------- "Nobody told you to beat up Manny! That's your fault." I tell him as we started to calm down now. "Nobody told you to fuck him either." He tells me as I shake my head at him tearing up again. "Fuck you James! You fucked my best friend. YOU GOT HER PREGNANT!" I tell him as he sits there in silence. We both do. five minutes go by of both of us not saying anything. So I do. Two wrongs don't make a right, but what can you expect from teenagers?.
