Who among us wouldn’t see red upon being jilted by a lover. A master manipulator who is sexually aware and knows exactly what she wants from a person and I wasn’t expecting to like her so much. She’s unapologetically brutal and will apologise to no one.

Alessandra is the living embodiment of the phrase “still waters run deep”.

Either way, Alessandra knows her worth and what she deserves, so she’ll do everything she can to obtain the power she wants. No one knows exactly what the Shadow King’s powers are, some say it’s mind control, and others say he reads minds.
