The Inferno's ARE IN THE MF'n BUILDING!! If you know, you know.

I knew I wanted her since the first time I saw her at that kitchen counter sobbing. I could see the pain in her eyes, and I knew she had never been loved right. She probably never had someone console or love her the way that I knew that I would. I couldn’t love her then. My heart wouldn’t allow me to, knowing that everything or everyone that loves me ends up leaving this earth.

I love Quasim Inferno. I want to love him, heal him, and be everything he never knew he needed. I’ve never been afraid of going after what I want – including the things that were bad for me. With Quasim Inferno, I could see my entire future in his eyes, and it excited me. A man as strong and hard as him, he needed the soft and gentle… and crazy. I wanted to be that for him.

This story was tragic but, as always, beautifully written. Take a walk down memory lane with me.

Vacant Values, Vindictive Vixens, Vicious Vices, Violent Villains, Vulnerable Vanity, Venomous Vows...V Growing up as one of the unattainable Bell sisters was always bittersweet. On one end, it prided me. I was one of the most desired girls of the neighborhood, a piece to a strong family puzzle that many envied. On the more trying end, we were declared a trio, branded by the actions of one another. Our mother, the matriarch, always instilled in us that family was everything; we were our sisters and a representation of her. There was power in the V she would often say. So while one of us craved the bad boys, another became blinded by success and status, and last, the baby, let s just say she was addicted to love. And that was us and it was tolerable. Just like you, we had obstacles and though our worlds were rocked, they were never shattered, because family was always at the core. But one day that changed. A sequence of ugly events placed our lives into an unstopping whirlwind of desire, betrayal, corruption, infidelity, and even death. Little did we know, our story, the story of The Bell sisters, the story of our lives, was being written in the process. Within these pages holds our secrets disguised as a nostalgic and dark tale of reality. Our family will never be the same...Connect with Autor Takerra Allen: https://www.instagram.com/bytakerraallen/

There’s just one problem: he’s off-limits.Follow Gold on her journey of highs and lows in this urban coming-of-age tale fusing money, friendship, love, sex, and power. This is just the beginning.
