Black

Hunters and their spears. Rulers and their crowns. That's how the world is cut in half: black and white, good and bad, the hero and the villain---the Raven City, and the silent hills of Argus. That's how it has been. For centuries. Decades. Years.

When you're born, you only have two choices: you can live in Raven City where people ought to lead, revolutionize and wear suits, vest and crowns. Or you can go far away from the noise, and live in the green hills of Argus where the tribe's survival lies in their culture and in their forest. The other marches towards advancement and the riches of the world, while the other prevails in silence and preserves the fields.

Diana Abella--- a daughter of a tribe chief was born in the green forests and fresh lakes of Argus. Where she ought to hunt and protect her tribe, and where she needs to live by their traditions no matter what.

But she wants more. She wants to learn more than peace and leaves. She also wants to see the city lights, she wants to hold a pen, and she also wants to ride cars.

Even though the world disagrees, Diana knows that it wasn't always black and white; there must be something in-between, something that already crossed that bridge between the people of Raven and the people of Argus. Something that has the same desire as hers.

Or someone. It could be Antonio Dmitri, one of the biggest and powerful business tycoons of Raven, and one of the most influential person despite retreating to his very private life.

But no matter how powerful and fierce Antonio is, Diana knows better. She knows he doesn't belong in Raven City. Because she knows him, he was born in the same fields she grew up in. Argus.

Diana will do everything to go beyond her chains no matter what happen. By hook or by crook, she'll go to the Raven City through Antonio. Even if it means becoming his biggest enemy...and eventually, his wife.
