Shadows We Survive

Two heirs to entirely different thrones.

One an elite underground empire for the rich, the other a corrupt cult lead by a fallen celebrity.

Nova Briggs (18) was only trying to escape her father's grasp when she accidentally ruined a bank robbery worth $550 million dollars.

The Aristocratic Underground Society is run by five major city faucilty's, and bet on, ranked, and sponsored by the most powerful, and rich people in the United States: where the ruthless are rewarded

While all being streamed live, the higher the stakes, the better the show? The more the bidders are willing to pay.

Kai Hudson (20) is the youngest and most-feared faculty commander is AUS history, and his plan from the beginning was to kill her.

Only, when Nova manages to bargain her life with a gun to his head, does he realize he may be underestimating the ghost of a girl.

He makes her a deal.

He'll train her in his faculty, refrain from killing her, give her a place to sleep and eat, & she'll work to earn all the money she lost him back.

However, the two's entirely different worlds may be more intertwined than ever imagined...

Heists.
Underground society & high society.
Freedom worth $550 million dollars,
and a deal with a criminal.
Bound heirs with an empire to raise.
