Cedric Reyes has a secret, he is the heir and eldest son of the rich and powerful Reyes clan. As tradition all heirs of their family have to go through a form of poverty training at the age of fifteen. They are left to fend for themselves with no contact and barely any money. Since leaving, he's gotten married to Adrianna Herandez, the Treasure of the Hernandez clan. Adrianna's family had always looked down at him due to his humble origins, but Adrianna has always stuck by him. Treated badly by his classmates in the past, and his in law in the present. They are about to encounter the shock of their lives. The Reyes Heir rules the country with his friends, the four princes, who are each from powerful and well respected families.

"I thought I was safe because she was a woman." Francesca said with a frown. "And above all I thought I was safe because she was a friend."
Cedric watched as Ram held Francesca tighter, giving her physical support through a tough time.
"Sometimes people pretend to be someone that they are not, I had been sick and tired of suspecting everyone of harboring evil intentions against me" Francesca told them as she looked around the room.
"I had grown up in a family where you were taught not to trust lightly. Among the underworld you needed to see what a person's true intentions were, that's what I was brought up to believe." Francesca said. "Everyone wears masks, it's up to you to see through them. That's what my father always told me."
As she said this she looked Ray in the eyes and gave him a nod. Ray as the King of the Underworld and coming from the family that had held that position for generations knew this fact the best.
