Chapter 1 - Introduction

I was delivered into this world in a very unlikely way. Obviously I came through my mother but while other babies were being blessed and faltered upon, I was given birth to just for my gender.

My father needed a male child to succeed all the wealth and affluence he has built over the years and also to take care of his underground association.

Before I was born, my mother had already given birth to four girls in the past six years, which obviously wasn't with her consent. My mother, like most of my aunts was sold to my father to pay off her sleazy father's debt. 

Due to the urgent need and pressure to have an heir to all his businesses, my father threatened my mother that she could only have a male child, if not, he will get rid of her and my sisters.

Unfortunately, I came out as a cute little baby girl not a strong boy like my father wanted. Out of fear of death, my mother made a grace decision and told my father that I was a male child.

Obviously he was overjoyed by this news and didn't bother to confirm my gender. He announced to his brothers and friends that he finally had an heir to carry on his name. He even held a welcome banquet celebrating my mother and my return to the family home.

My mother hid her tracks beautifully well and bribed the doctor to change the gender on my records. She knew exactly that my father won't bother with my grooming and growth so she had no fears that he will find out himself.

I was given the name Stephen Thorne Damien, on the third of July,2002. 

Instantly, my mother and sisters were elevated to a new level and were inherently treated a whole lot better than before. But something my mother knew deep inside her heart is that no secret can be kept forever.

The only persons aware of this secret was my eldest and second sister, who were present during my delivery, the doctor and the nurses and my mother. No one else in the world knew that the Thorne heir was a girl.

Growing up, I realized that I was the only male in the midst of six sisters and my mother.

My father, John Thorne, had already told my mom that he will take over my training and education when I'm five years old. So, I didn't really spend much time with him apart from the constant gifts that he gave me.

I learnt that my sister were known as Danielle, Penelope and Priscilla who were twins, Jada, Evelyn and Evielyn who are also twins.

Growing up with girls, I had always appeared more feminine to my peers, so they always picked on me for that. 

The moment I turned five, my father officially took over my life. He organized my studies, trained me in martial arts, boxing and basic weaponry, he took me to all his business meetings, both the legitimate ones and the other underground business.

As at when I was ten years of age, I was vast in things that even a twenty year old shouldn't be made aware of.

My mother fearing that I would turn to a mini version of my father taught me contrary things to what my father had. It was pretty stressful, learning about the underworld and how to operate incognito and also learning about how to keep your hands free from crime.I was literally still a child.

The moment I turned twelve, I used my father's teachings against him and negotiated with him to start normal school. It took a lot of test, both physical and mental to win him over but it worked out perfectly fine and I was allowed to start middle school.

This is where my story starts.....
