Some doors, once opened, can never be closed.
Elijah Wells had one plan for his future: graduate, go to college, and leave everything behind. He had the grades. He had the drive. What he didn't have was a choice.
When the man who was both a stranger and his father is killed, Elijah inherits more than grief - he inherits a throne. Jermaine Williams wasn't just a name people whispered. He was the Drug Lord King, the untouchable head of The Atlantic Breakway - one of the most powerful drug cartels in the country. And now, with the crown unclaimed, every player on the board is making a move.
Elijah doesn't want the throne. But the throne wants him.
Set against the backdrop of loyalty, bloodlines, and betrayal, Initiation is the explosive first chapter of The Drug Lord's Son series - a raw, unflinching coming-of-age story about a young Black man forced to grow up faster than he ever imagined. Between a best friend who crossed an unforgivable line, a girlfriend hiding secrets that could shatter everything, and an estranged brother he never knew existed who may be his greatest threat, Elijah's world unravels before it can fully begin.
And somewhere in the shadows, someone is already watching. Already waiting. Already winning.
The crown doesn't care if you're ready. It only cares if you survive.
Initiation is a gripping urban fiction and crime drama debut for readers who love complex family dynamics, street lit with substance, and stories where the line between right and wrong is drawn in blood. Perfect for fans of Omar Tyree, Ashley & JaQuavis, and Wahida Clark.
