— BIOGRAPHY

Right from childhood, becoming a police officer was an ambition for Jackson, and there was nothing that could stop him from achieving it. He studied hard at school, did well at sports and the stubbornness he possessed meant he got in the academy at his first attempt, aged eighteen.

His dream didn't stop at that, he wanted to be a detective and clean the streets from serious criminals and it was no surprise that by the age of twenty-three he was in plainclothes. He was living his dream, a good job and a beautiful fiancé to go home to. Life in Chicago was treating him well, but when his fiancé had to relocate to New York to be closer to family and seek better job opportunities he couldn't let her go, so both of them decided the start of a family of their own would be there.

A few years later, at twenty-seven, Jackson was officially a husband, although on the children side, the couple wasn't so lucky. They tried several times thought the years — three pregnancies, but unfortunately all resulted in miscarriages. Those were some pretty dark times for both, and they came to terms that having children of their own wouldn't happen. He didn't want to go through another miscarriage, he saw the toll it took on his wife. Each time the spark in her eyes dulling more. It took them a while to get back on their feet, but they did and they were planning on adoption or surrogate, but oh how life liked to playout.

Dealing with criminals wasn't easy, but dealing with gangs was harder. One way or the other it creates a target on your back, and when you weren't willing to budge they found ways to make you. They took her — they took the only person that mattered so much to him, and they promised they wouldn't hurt her, but criminals often don't keep their promises. He was the done that found his wife's lifeless body, he was the one that informed her family, he was left to suffer — at the age of thirty-two he was a widower.

Now at thirty-seven he didn't care much about rules and following the law. Justice and law didn't help his wife, and now with his heart covered in ice, he didn't care much about being the good guy.
