She was living a perfect life until she found herself in the middle of a crossfire between two men who are both fighting for her love. Kyle was an heir to the street and a savage by blood, but that wasn’t the type of life he wanted to live. He wanted out, and no one understood why, especially when it came so easy for him. Going away to school was not only a temporary escape for Kyle, but it was the start of a new life, but meeting Shaniya wasn’t part of his plan. Neither was being put in the friend zone. In unfamiliar territory, Kyle played his part while waiting to claim what was rightfully his. Even being possessed with a rare gift, Braylin was a troubled soul trying his hardest to bury his past and live a better life. Being the star of the basketball team gave Braylin everything that he could ever dream of. Except for the one thing his heart desired, Shaniya. Girls threw themselves at him daily, but Braylin only had eyes for her. All Andre ever wanted was to be accepted by his father, but with a star player like Braylin on his team, his father sees nothing but the fame that Braylin can bring. When Andre’s jealousy turns into rage, he seeks revenge on everyone and comes up with a sick ploy to make everybody feel his wrath and take them all down. With so many emotions and jealousy building up, everyone’s lives are affected, and a love triangle is bound to get messy.
