Fiona was already searching up the camera footage from outside her brother’s building. We both watched as a man, no more than a kid really, practically slid under the car before popping back out. No one blinked an eye. 5 minutes later. Boom.
Me: I made a deal. To protect us all. It was the best of the lot.
Babysitter: With who?
Me: The Cooper Family.
I watched as the conversation dots appeared and disappeared repeatedly.
Babysitter: What have I gotten myself into? I hope you know what you are doing.
So, did I.

To the outside world, Edgemont High is your typical high school. Well, not exactly typical. They once had the worst reputation in the country. Before Levi Cooper came along, it was run by the local gangs.
A few years later, that is no longer the case. Unbeknownst to the public, it is now run by the American Mafia.
These men have many rules they live by. Loyalty and trust are at the top. But their highest and most important rule, no one messes with their family. Especially their women. They’d burn their way through hell to protect what belongs to them.
