Between love, drugs, money and power anything at all could happen in the city of Brooklyn, New York. Friends turn to foes, enemies become allies, and lovers are shifted to merely nothing at all. It’s a daily test when chasing money, freedom and status. Alux, better known as Lux, considers himself a king and prides himself on the better things in life. However, he didn’t rise to his status alone. Fame, Banks and Fury, his three closest friends all put in the man hours to make it so. To believe that he can have anything he desires comes at a price. If the trio doesn’t budge, Alux is screwed. When his true colors begin to show, Fame, Banks and Fury devise their own plan to remove themselves from “King Lux’s” devious, underhanded schemes. Especially when they learn of the dirtiest move he could ever possibly make to rise to the top. Valentino, Lux’s younger brother, never had hood dreams or wanted a status, but his hand is forced when his veil is lifted and he sees his brother for who he really is. Aaliyah, Valentino’s best friend, is snatched up and claimed by Lux purposely just to prove a point to Valentino that if he doesn’t fall in line and stay out of the limelight, that there are much worst things that could happen. There is nothing like a brother scorned. Valentino makes the decision between love and snatching the crown off of his own brother’s head out of vengeance. The streets are a kingdom. The crown is for the taking…by anyone.
