Onyx. A princess. An assassin. A slave.
Known as the Black Rose, she is the princess of the shadow world, as well as one of the deadliest assassins. Her mother died when she was just a little girl, making Onyx swear to avenge that death. Her father disapproved, exiling her from the palace, and the kingdom.
