Did you know that life is funny and most of the time cute? It has been 4 years now since I have been enlisted to this family even though my mum earns money legit through software making but behind the scenes are the drugs and weapons she is in control of.
My mum does not encourage trafficking of women, children nor men but kidnapping seems a bit legit. You may be wondering if I have had my first kill and my answer will be Yes.
It is a culture that if you are to be accepted into the family and me as her son I must kill five rats meaning those who tries to expose mum's secret to the outside world since mum owns the NYPD and the CIA or MI6 or any intelligence agency cannot attack though their do not know her Identity nor her face expect I, Mr. Banks and few people who she trust a lot.
My mum is a ghost and she also taught me how to be since I am her son, the surprising part is she freely exposed secret information to me without thinking. And yes! she has everything I have desired in a mother not food not wealth but parental love.
Currently, I am schooling because any Pace family must be educated to keep the family going as mum used to say “the gun is not the path but the knowledge and the gun is the path we need.”
Let me share one more secret, my mom kidnapped Albert Almond, and 10 other great minds to build her a powerful AI. I know you feel like it is impossible. It is 2003 but trust me it is real. She calls it “The Queen”. Royalty is cool. Through this mom will notice any one or threat coming our way inside or outside it was only imbibed in Mom's, Luca-Head of security , Mr. Banks. Elephant don’t actually like the name. He hates that his name is pronounce wrongly and you are dead in seconds. Only mom pronounce his name any how she likes. Well, Elephant is our tech wizard. No hacker or cyber whatever can pass through him and did I tell you we both love video games?
Next on the top seven to access the Queen is Alexa the damned of all assassins she the one mom sends to kill the untraceable, and the tough guys e.g. ignorant journalist.
Now sixth one on the list is the Baggy man, though we call him that not because he was baggy though he loves baggy and he and I are cool, most times I love running on missions with him when I sneak out of School, he never tells on me like Luca. He runs the drugs, weapons and controls New York city NYPD or any security agency, news agency etc. for mummies.
Lastly, I am the seventh one whose DNA can access the Queen though I never used it before and do not plan to expect mom to ask me to. Besides I am still new here so let me leave the grown ups while I focus on my studies.
To let you one a big secret, I have never felt safe like I do with mom, though we do have gun exchange but I have a family who support and back me up.
Let me gist you, May 12th,2001 I was kidnapped by an Arab terrorist who in turn asked mom for ransom or they will kill me.At first I thought they wanted to kill me because in movies when bad guys are caught in their group, they are seen as liabilities who may in turn be rats.
Besides I had a feeling in heart to be abandoned, I said to myself "she will find another heir," I am just a loose end but good luck found me, I laughed and the terrorist were confused and I said “The Calvary is here”
“Yes baby” Baggy replied as he walked in.
“Andrew, Get down, did you think we will leave you hang here? I still miss playing with you” Alexa said holding a rocket in an airplane.
Let me Just say this, don’t freak out but they came to rescue me on a moving airplane trust me at first I thought it was crazy but at the end I said what the hell. Baggy man strapped himself while Alexa fired the rocket and we all parachuted to our ship. Bye! Bye!! Terrorist. I can never forget that day.
We landed and everyone bowed to me as shocking as it was mom was so calm and drank lemonade. I know it is weird but don’t let me hint you on any more because despite the love and respect we all have for each other, we are all writers especially Elephant who eats a lot why typing with five set of keyboard at a time even I can't beat that.
Remember this our little secret don’t let him know about it because he will find out if I add lots of hyperbole to beat him in video games though I am not bad actually but, come to think of it how do you expect to defeat a tech wizard who can operate six computers at a time and still defeat you in video game. It is so cool isn't it?

What do you define as family? Some of you may say it is a group of people related by blood or have a common ties as true as they are but that isn’t often always true as I define as forsaken, forgotten, regrets, outcast, Misfit, who are brought together for one single purpose that is stick together as one. This is who the hearts are. Am I saying there are no betrayal? No, there are but since I joined them we have each learnt to forgive and if it is beyond renewable trust we exile them but they are still one of us whether the point is far or near, strange or not strange, powerful or not powerful, rich or not we are all one.
It is often said Crime has an end but I seem to go against such ideology because the Pace have been running New York from its set up yet have never been identified as its ring leader or should I say decision maker.
The Lords have the four Queens and heart tattoos at their back, mom has, so do I. As for Luca, Mr. Banks, Alexa, Elephant, Baggy Man each have three Queens and a large heart tattooed at their back to show leaders. As for the rest of the Heart family, they have just two Queens and a big heart.With this, we know our family and cannot kill or touch them. Any mistake will not be forgiven. Imbibed in the tattoos are barcodes, trackers to help send our location to the heart, grant us access in our meetings and also help send emergency signals for help from any heart member in any country in the world.I apologize I forgot to inform you that this is 2005 and mom's empire had spread globally so we no longer traffic drugs and sell weapons. We protect good people. Like mom says, just a way to quench our inner demons and let the boys have fun and play. Luckily for us we have save 300 thousands innocent civilians from bomb blast, terrorist etc. and we have lost 399 heart members doing so but n
He is feared till today as no one wants to go to court with him because they end up losing and becoming exposed.I am glad the heart has him though he is blind as a bat but he is our batman and our beacon of justice. All my life I haven’t seen life as I have seen it now though movies tell us what they think it is but reality makes us understand what we truly do not understand.I could say my mum is very brave, doing the impossible at a little age reminds me of my little crusade at No one cares Orphanage home which at the end opened a new door for all my companions to be adopted. I guess all sacrifices are worth both good and evil. It just depends on which one brings a lasting and peace giving reward.It is not easy to lead the heart no matter how tough she will have her tearful days but nevertheless with time she grew to overcome her challenges and trust in her family to do the right thing at the right time.Pretty much every member of the heart each has a painful past that defines th
Even when he became mature his father never stopped. In fact he was harassed more with oral sex, journalists and news media carrying news feeds of his fathers events. Though their family became rich I mean his siblings and their father while his mother was chased out by his torturing father who accused her publicly for been a witch she wasn’t but since there was no fair justice system in the 1990s only corruption she was stoned to death without investigation and no one even was willing to accept her for who she is.In fear no to end up like his mom, he obeyed his father and did whatever he asked without objection which each night resulted in many tears. He tried so much to be strong but he kept on failing so he had to find something to comfort him and there came computers. He loved coding, hacking, passing system logs etc. So he devised a way to build his wizard's home for techs, which led him to engage in sex with his wicked father's clients and secretly earn cash behind his back.H
I mean my ex-crush and my ex-best friend though it hurts but it is all for the best, I just have to make sure I do nothing she asks of me. Class commenced and Lucy sat beside me calling my attention.“ Hi, my name is Lucy and that is my boyfriend Eric” Lucy greeted and introduced herself but I refused to reply and kept focusing on what the lecturer taught.Lecture finished and I left the hall only for Lucy to rush to meet me, leading almost to her death as the guard was about to shoot her until I signaled to them to stand down.“ What do you want?” I asked Lucy.“ You, sorry I meant you…no sorry… I meant your note… sorry you know there is a party coming up at my place tonight, care to join?” Lucy said.“ No, I don’t do a party thanks for the invite anyway” I replied.“ Please it is my birthday,” Lucy pleaded.“ Not interested, Can you please excuse me? I have a home to get to,” I replied.“ I promise to drive you home if you come,” Lucy said.“Thanks but I've got my own driver and be
One thing you should know about me is that I hate parties but because this is my mission I will let down my fears, not because I am scared iis…You know what, why don’t we go into the good part.My tailor dressed me in an Italian blue suit paired with an oxford shoe with my buttons engraved with hearts and my coiled hair made straight. I look fantastic. All I need is a date. I know it is lame for a birthday party to go with a date but that is what the invitation requested. I know it's crazy I do, Oh! I did not inform you on how we got the invitation. We may have hacked her phone and copied her number of which of course I called her and she told me about the bring your date kind of thing.“ Hi, kids, who is your date?” Baggy asked.“Em!.....” I was speechless but Alexa saved the day dress with a black wedding gown with big high heels matching a black tiara looking like a princess and she is very young like a teenager no one will even know she is 29 walking down the stairs and finally
“We kind of… we kind of lit the barrels of booze at the store by mistake. You know mum accidents do happen” I narrated.“ Mistake, What the fuck is wrong with you” Susan screamed as she pull a cigar and lights it.“It was all Baggy man's fault,” Elephant said.“Will you all keep quiet?” Susan ordered and said “ Who the fuck sent you to the damn country” “You” We all replied in fear.“Who the fuck where you suppose to report to?” Susan asked, smoking deeper.We were speechless.“Answer the fucking damn question,” Susan said as she threw a bottle of courage on the car floor and the bottle broke.“Mom, your cigar is going to light the scourge once it does that we will all die” I advised.“Don’t call me mom” Susan screamed in anger.“She doesn't mind that she's just angry,” Baggy said.Well, he ended his life! Mum brought her favorite pistol and shot him in the arm.“Now, I will ask again and if you don’t answer I will burn us all alive. Who the bloody hell were supposed to report to?”S
You want them sometimes you gotta do something crazy to achieve long lasting love or as some call it true love which to me seems to be fairly tales. Still In thought of what to reply Alexa Ian still scaling my heart to be sure because never has it occurred to me once if I ever love her and if I never did she was just a whore to me and if she I made her like that any future daughter I have may be treated like that and I won’t forgive myself.Poor Alexa though she may still work with the Pace's family or become our enemy revealing our secret to our enemy either we both action has consequence. Why can’t one have fun and not worry about love? That word is like bondage besides mom is having sex with lots of men as she likes but why am I having a guilty conscience.We have murdered quite a number of people and we feel no remorse but why is this different? Am I soft? Do I really love her? Why is this really hard? Or is she playing on my emotions? Or is my emotions playing with me?I hate t
“Come on guys drop it already why do you always have to act stupid and like babies. Tell me Why?” Baggy Man Asked.“Who cares, all I care is for you all to get yourselves together and get me back my home rather than making stupid war among yourselves” Susan replied“ Okay boss” They said.“Children and their naughty behavior even a bug is more gentle than they” Susan said in monologue.“You see, you two really need counseling, I will be glad to help you with that” Baggy Man said.“You know what I am out of here, just get better all of you” Susan replied and exit my ward“This isn’t good, we all manage to piss the boss and she is right are children” Elephant said.“I am glad you finally agree, so child are you willing to call in a truce” I replied.“Yeah, after you delete my cousin digit on your phone” Elephant said.“Dude you got issues, really big ones” Why is wrong with having your cousin contact on my device” I replied.“Just that I don’t trust you with her digit because you may w
