The Forged Path

Fresh out of federal prison after a decade behind bars, Onyx steps back into a world that’s been waiting for him—or so he thought. The streets of Atlanta have changed, but the hunger inside him hasn’t. With a lyrical gift that could take him to the top and a name that still carries weight, Onyx is torn between two worlds—one promising legitimacy, the other offering everything he’s ever craved: money, power, and respect.

Growing up in his absence, Amani built something—something powerful. Now, she’s living in luxury, moving in circles he never imagined, and making it clear that Onyx could have the same, if only he’d leave the past behind. But walking away isn’t that simple—not when being a boss fuels his ambition, and building Money Bag Mafia isn’t just a choice; it’s in his blood, a legacy he refuses to let die.

The higher Onyx climbs, the deeper the stakes get. Enemies lurk behind envy, and every alliance comes with a cost. As new ghosts resurface and the pressure mounts, he’s forced to ask himself—is he chasing a dream, or running from the truth?

Because in this game, the only thing more dangerous than wanting it all is believing you can have it.
