They crowned her, dressed her in gold, and taught her how to kneel but they never taught her how to survive him. That, she learned alone. In the silence before his footsteps. In the fear that never left. There was no love in his hands, no kindness in his voice. Only control. Only cruelty. She was not a wife. She was something given... and things that are given can always be taken away. Some say tyrants can learn to love. Hers never did. And still... she survived him. But survival has a cost. Once, she had been soft. Gentle. The kind of woman who believed in kindness, who would have chosen love if it had ever been offered to her. That girl is gone now. In her place stands something colder something shaped by war, by pain, by years of learning that mercy is a weakness no one survives twice. She walked away from her throne and chose the battlefield instead, trading silk for steel, a crown for blood. And somewhere along the way, she stopped feeling until the only thing that made her feel alive again... was the sound of someone else's pain. Men whisper her name now. Not with admiration but with fear. Because she is no longer something to be pitied. She is something to be feared. And then he finds her. A man who does not look at her like she is broken. A man who does not flinch from what she has become. A man who does not try to control her, or cage her, or tame her. He simply stays. He is not a king... but he treats her like a queen. And that is what terrifies her the most. Because she does not know how to be that woman anymore. She does not know how to be gentle. Does not know how to trust. Does not know how to love.

"This was suppose to be easy, nobody was suppose to get hurt". Twenty year old Ivory Santana was what most people would call friendly and caring. She'd be the person you'd least expect to have a father running one of the biggest drug trafficking industry's in America. Ivory has went through great measures keeping that part of her life private while attending college at NYU, that is until she's taken. Twenty two year old Jade and his older brother Ohaji are 2 completely different types of people that you wouldn't expect to even associate with each other if they weren't related. With dreams of one day being as legendary as their father once was. The two brothers were given the task of kidnapping their boss, big Al's enemy's daughter until he agrees to compromise. Sounds simple enough right? WRONG. What happens when Ivory teams up with the brothers and this turns into a cat and mouse game between bonds and blood?
