Arnold has never stepped into a palatial mansion, being waited on hand and foot by maids and butlers of the Kufulula estate. The poor boy knows no etiquette rules and has never mingled with the upper class nor indulged in the privileges and frivolities of high society. All he knows is an impecunious livelihood with his mom - a curious woman sporadically vanishing from him for reasons he knows not.

His house is a tiny structure in the inner city, and he has never blown a wish from his birthday cake. But all that changes when mysterious people arrive to take him away and introduce him to a different reality.

Thanks to his grandfather, he later discovers his true identity. He also makes lasting friendships, is christened the Wolf of Congo, and travels to India, America, and back to the Democratic Republic of Congo, to manifest The African Dream. The reward of the Bapindi prophecy awaits him, to see if Arnold can accomplish his destiny as the Prince of Kinshasa and take over the throne as the rightful Bapindi king.
