    The Dream

    Growing up in a small town in L.A. Angel had it all: money, cars, clothes, jewelry, you name it shed got it; all at the age of nineteen. But besides all the star treatment Angel had only one problem; her longtime boyfriend Quincy Jameson. Quincy or B.K.A. Q was the kind of guy who doesnt mind being locked-up. With a thuggish ass attitude, and a mentality of a sociopath Q was the type of guy nobody wanted to mess with; including Angel. However, that didnt stop Angel from wanted to be by his side; because in her eyes Q was the only man that had ever been there for her..So she thought.

With the numerous of arrests, you wouldve thought that Q wouldve gave up the hard core lifestyle that he was trying to betrayed. However, being just another thug on the streets wasnt good enough for him. You see Quincy had the type of mentality that says hes willing to do whatever it takes to stay on top; even if that means that hell have to take somebody down for it.

    Well that somebody just happened to be Angel. You see, for the past three years of her life Angel has been tortured, stalked, and beaten by a man whom she had thought had her back. But in all actuality, her life story had just become another statistic of abuse. But even though, Angel had fi nally found the courage to leave Q, she was still left with the reminder of the numerous of times that Q had physically assaulted her; as she lays in the arms of another man on the Westside of Philadelphia.

    Still trying to forget her longtime of abusive past, Angel has yet to learn that her new found love Nick is the cousin of her now ex-boyfriend Q. As her life story begins to play out, she has found herself caught in the middle of a war; in which, she had failed to tell Nick numerous of times that his own blood cousin had abused her, and now that he had showed his face in Philly. Nicks cousin is on the verge of making Angels life a living hell.

      About the Author

      Chapter One

      It was mid September, and Angel could barely see the rain falling outside her hospital room window. The look in her eyes was dramatic as if she’d been through the worst part of her or anybody’s life. While lying in her hospital bed, Angel was trying to recollect all her thoughts of what had happened to her. She has been beaten severely with: two black eyes; three ribs broken; a broken collarbone, and a broken spinal cord that looks like somebody had used her body for batting practices. Besides the beatings Angel has over thirteen stabs and slashes all over her body. Who could have done this? This horrendous act, as if this person doesn’t have a soul left in his/her body.

      As tears ran down her face, the horrendous pain runs all through her body. Angel has been in the hospital for as long as she could remember. Besides the pain that she will be feeling for the rest of her life; Angel will never be able to: see, walk, nor hold, or play with her little boy ever again. Right before this incident had happened Angel was a pretty little thang. At the age of nineteen, Angel had grown to mature in her looks really well. With the finest skin tone; people had constantly mistaken her as a Latina or a Puerto Rican just by how light her skin is; compared to the other light skinned females in West Philly. She was the hottest thang on the block, every male and female wanted a piece of her. If they weren’t trying to fight her, they were trying to get with her. The men especially wanted a piece of her. She was young, and she had a body of a twenty-six year old that says, I’m the shit. Angel was every man’s dream and every woman’s nightmare. She had every female in West Philly hating on her; just by the way she walks and talks. Every woman, married or single hated her just because how their men used to speak proudly of her whenever they see her walking the streets or hitting up the clubs somewhere. So instead of trying to fight her some females just congratulate her on her game. But that was just back then because now she’s just lying in a hospital bed all bruised up with a tube down her throat, and dried up blood still left in her hair; from the time that she was laying in her own pool of blood.

      Three Years Earlier. Angel had just moved from L.A. to the Westside of Philly to get away from her trouble past of frequent verbal and physical abuse of a relationship with her boyfriend at the time Quincy or B.K.A. ‘Q’. Angel and ‘Q’ had a thang for each other. It was never anything or anyone could keep them apart from each other. It was like looking at Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston all over again. There was nothing that Angel wouldn’t do for ‘Q’ even if that means to accept all his thuggish and abusive ways. ‘Q’ wasn’t your ordinary kind of guy, of course he had his moments, whereas, if his money wasn’t right he’ll go crazy, but who hasn’t. ‘Q’ was the type of guy who was all about getting paid no matter how he gets it. Even if that means that he had to take whatever that’s not his. And if he couldn’t get what he wanted he’ll take anyone down for it, including Angel.

      Angel was ‘Q’s lady and everybody knew it, but what they didn’t know was behind closed doors. Angel and ‘Q’ were together
