Aggressive and vigorous, Hassan Waters is the product of his environment, raised in the projects, with no mother and a father who constantly abuses him mentally and physically. After his first committed crime at a very young age of 13, Hassan became angrier, lashing out into society as one of Chicago's worst nightmare youngsters involving himself in theft, drugs, and money. When he meets someone of the opposite of his character and falls in love, but he has to fight for his life, and is surprised by the beauty's loyalty in the end. Loyal and trusting, Khalik Givens is a resident of New Jersey but is brought to Chicago at the young age of 13 when he meets Hassan by witnessing a beating and a murder. Losing his mother years later and left to step up to society, his only mission is to take care of his brother Treshon Givens by becoming rich and powerful, only his treachery catches up with him in the eyes and broken heart of a beautiful woman scorned. Janae "Lovely" Luvell is a scorned beauty determined to avenge the murder of someone so dear, her rich and only known family member, killed by the hands of Hassan and Khalik. Her wrath and fury ties her in a web of lies, secrets, and death, but will she survive or will her own treachery destroy her? The feeling of money, power, and respect drives them, but their greed for those things leaves them tangled in a web of lies and murder. However, vengeance has never been sweeter. Overcoming the acts of violence, death, incarceration, and love, these two friends learn that in the street game, only dishonor and disloyalty exist. Throughout it all, they manage always to rely on each other, realizing the true meaning of love, friendship, and loyalty.
