He has learned to lock his heart away at young age. Growing up in bad conditions made him strive to be something more. The boss with the heart of ice. The Machine. But then she walks into his office, and he finds himself crossing the lines for her. He starts to feel his heart de-frost, and he welcomes the forlorn feeling with a shark-grin. A problem arises in Elijah's picture-perfect-world with her in the middle when his brother starts taking a like in her and his world is turned upside down, as he makes the impossible decision, and sells his soul to save her.

She has to choose between the gold cage she escaped from, or the freedom she's always craved. Will their love survive this test? .

"The things that I would do to you with just a couple seconds I would color every moment, make you feel like it's forever, baby"

Detroit has always been the type of city that carries its own unique name with pride. Full of nonstop hustlers who move with dignity, each chasing their own dream. Trevon Gardner is one of them: a rapper finally gaining real attention, trying to turn his talent into the life he's been chasing forever. Xamira Evans is a gifted cosmetologist with her own blueprint, living life to the fullest. Their worlds don't usually collide...until one unexpected moment changes everything. Now they have to face the consequences. Will it bring them together, or tear them apart?

We've all heard the tales of good and bad, the tales of innocent deceit and her hero, the tales that despite their nature, show us the beauty in contrast. But it's the tales of pure evil that get swept under the rug. The tales of deception, where cruelty is rewarded. The tales that have you questioning who the real villain of the story is. There's a simple philosophy to most thing in life; two wrongs 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 make a right. So what ensues when you put two of the worst kinds of people together? Loyalties transfer, lines blur, and hatred ignites complete chaos. She's cunning. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘳𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴. She's dangerous. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴. She's evil. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘦. Or so that's what we're told.
