Blood Covenant (en Inglés) - MARQUIS COLE

Darius Mitchell built the North Side empire from nothing. Day by day. Block by block. He trusted the wrong people, and now he’s paying the price. Federal custody. Facing fifteen to twenty years. But while Darius sits behind glass, the operation he created doesn’t stop-it fractures.

Trell was supposed to be different. His enforcer. His day-one. The brother who’d take a bullet and never ask why. But jealousy is a poison, and Trell’s addiction has twisted loyalty into something unrecognizable. Under Prophet’s control, he’s dismantling everything Darius built, stealing not just territory but the empire itself.

What Trell doesn’t know is that Detective Kowalski has already turned him into an informant. The blood covenant that once bound them is about to shatter in the most devastating way possible.

When Javon discovers the betrayal, the North Side descends into chaos. Bodies drop. Alliances crumble. And Darius, locked in a cell watching his world burn, is forced to accept an eight-year plea deal-a lifetime compressed into a federal sentence.

Blood Covenant pulls back the curtain on what happens when loyalty fails. Told in rotating first-person voices-Darius, Trell, Detective Kowalski, Keyana, and Lorraine-this devastating third chapter explores the price of power, the limits of brotherhood, and the generational cycles that refuse to break.

Perfect for fans of Sister Souljah, Wahida Clark, and K’wan, Blood Covenant is an unflinching look at organized crime, betrayal, and what’s left when everything you built comes down.
