He carelessly stepped over the now dead body and further into the alley, enough that the dim lightbulb above us showed his face.

When Lexi Malor's mother died, she and her brother had no idea what their lives would be like living within the custody of their father.
How could they, they had never met him?
Lexi often wondered what her father did, but she never expected to be the daughter of a crime Lord. She never expected to be thrown into his work against her will, and she never expected to have to pay her keep.
Since she was the only girl her father had within her group, she would often go on jobs to get information. She would do whatever she had to to get it. Over, and over again.
Of course, she couldn't refuse to do it. Her father was only keeping her around because she was useful.
She soon accepted it to be her life, she never thought of treason, she never even imagined it. All she wanted to do, was stay alive.
No matter what, she would stay alive no matter who tried to get in her way.
