"Well, the princess won't be ruling the city for long, that is for sure." He laughs, moving I punch him. "Who took her?" "You kill me you will never know." He smiles smugly.

It’s either one night stands, fake short term relationships or nothing. You don’t just find a Tilly on every corner. A woman that will accept you, that if you are totally honest with her … won’t be afraid of you. I never had someone to … to help me. To direct me, and it damn near killed me. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. I call it my dark shadow … it’s a part of me, but it’s a part of me I can mostly keep hidden, that I can control.

he said sarcastically, rolling his eyes. “I'm going to kill you!” she growled, trying to claw at his face. “Not today, and I'd be careful on the threats, your best friend will be next if you decide to disobey me again,” he said pushing her away. “We're always watching, now that I know how to summon you, maybe I'll punish you, there for a while,” he said before disappearing. Abey looked down at her Grandfather. The Chief wandered close by. “This is a bad omen, you must leave. You are plagued by Shadows, scat, scat.” he hissed at her.

It was enough for her to see first-hand how easy it was for her to kill anyone to believe that he’s not someone to go easy with. “But I’m taking counter-measures,” said Luis, his hands on his back.

"They forgot that the shadow is the only thing that sees the structural flaws in the light, Knox," I breathed out, my arms wrapping tightly around his neck as his lips crushed against mine in a deep, demanding alignment of absolute power. The empire was no longer a disputed territory; it was a clinical reality, written in stone, monitored by my terminal, and guarded by the man who had crowned me his equal.

Whenever he showed me favoritism, he would smile and say, "I raised her. Of course I take extra care of her." No one knew that I was his shadow, or the woman who shared his bed. "I found my family," I said. The consigliere froze for a moment, then broke into a smile. "That's wonderful. Don will be thrilled to hear—" Before he could finish, I heard familiar footsteps.
