Monica has been apart of the black empire ever since she was little. Her mother ran away, leaving Monica with her father. That's all she knows, she doesn't know the whole truth. People often compare her to her mother. A father, who wants to force her into marriage with the leader of the black empire. Dave's a complete jerk to Monica, and is only agreeing to do it because he's next in line in his family to take over and Monica was the only one that 'seemed appealing' supposedly but he uses that an excuse to cover up his crush for her. But finally admits to it. Monica is so used to doing things the black empire demands but later finds out what they've been doing has been wrong. The black empire seems like a prison to her. She isn't allowed to do the things she loves or decides who she loves for that matter. But she yet has to discover the greener grass, the white empire.
