Despite his reputation as a heartless ruler, Shadow finds himself inexplicably drawn to Moonlight's beauty and innocence. As their relationship deepens and their feelings become impossible to ignore, they must navigate the dangerous waters of Shadow's underworld and the wrath of his enemies. Will their love be enough to overcome the brutal reality of their circumstances, or will it lead to their ultimate downfall?

"what new slave ?" Morgan asked with a frown .
"I guess he's just fxcking you without telling you anything" Kenzie replied and scoffed.
"shadow bought a new slave ?" Morgan asked .
"I don't know ...she might just be a bonus coz I don't think the boss will buy someone like her with his money" Kenzie replied.
"how does she look like ?" Morgan asked
"trash of course, is she supposed to look like a princess" Kenzie said and scoffed
"I shouldn't have been friends with you" Morgan said
"good for you " Kenzie said and rolled her eyes chewing her gum
"I will be back " Morgan said and stood up .
"what are you still waiting for ? stand up and leave the room " Morgan said .
"I'm your friend and I can wait here for you " Kenzie replied.
"I don't trust you to that extent of leaving you alone in my room " Morgan said

Morgan pulled her up and dragged her out of the room before locking the door
"See you later, " Morgan said and headed to shadow's suit .
shadow was smoking heavily when he heard the sound of the room alert
"sir Morgan is here to see you " a guard came in
"get out " he said coldly without looking at him
The guard went out immediately to avoid seeing his creator too soon .
"I have something important to tell him, " Morgan said, insisting on going in .
"The boss doesn't want to see anyone," the guard said .
"Get out of the way now or I will kill you " Morgan said .
"I'm sorry, but I can't," he said .
Morgan pushed him trying to go in ,but the other one held her , she stabbed his arm with a knife .
They still tried to hold her , but stabbed them multiple times.
she walked in angrily and met shadow in the living room .
Shadow ignored her and continued smoking while taking a view of the whole clan through the glass.
"You bought a new slave ?" she asked .
he looked at her coldly, anyone that see him like this is gonna be so scared
"What did you do to the guard? " he asked and puffed out smoke from his mouth and nose .
"I just gave him a little med " she replied and back hugged him .
"What right do you have to do that ?" he asked calmly, but one could tell he was so angry.
"I heard you bought a new slave ..is there anything you will want me to do to her ? " she asked, trying to change the topic which got him angrier.
He turned around and grabbed her neck and then pinned her to the wall , choking her .
