The world knew him as J. Cade, world music superstar. Not much was known about him or his past. Tall, broad, handsome, and charming, females everywhere fanned themselves whenever his name was mentioned. Women swooned over his gorgeous black locks and intense gold eyes. He was a man of mystery.

But it was the black-clothed female always by his side that puzzled the world the most. Rumors flew about how Cade had refused to sign without her. Some people claimed she was his girlfriend; others said she was his wife; while still others thought she was a relative, a sister or a cousin. Whoever she was, the world only knew she played an important part in Cade's music and bestowed upon her a fitting name; Shadow X.
