“With the immortality of ink, true love can never fade.” With his shop in ruins and his sanity hanging on by a single thread, Shacago Stanfield has the weight of the world on his shoulders with no hope of a better day in sight. As the new supplier for all of Brooklyn, his dreams of becoming the ink god of Brooklyn comes to a halt. Or so he thinks. With a new partnership intact that mixes his passion of turning art to ink, Shacago is forced to teeter between doing what he loves for money and doing what he hates, in order to maintain. As if that wasn’t enough, he still has to deal with the sudden loss of Parai, the girl with the pretty smile and beautiful heart that made him believe in love again. While the feelings they shared were genuine, Shacago finds out that their love story might be one for the history books for all the wrong reasons. Once loved for her beauty and body art, Rosé finds herself hated for being the sister of an alleged murderer. Rosé’s attempts to distance herself from Elijah are futile due to his knowledge of a very important piece of information: the real reason she fled New York five years ago. Refusing to cut Shacago deeper, Rosé is forced to align herself with his enemy, stabbing him in the back and leaving her to wonder if their relationship will be able to ever recover from such a lie. Despite her world spinning out of control, she feels safe having Marquise in her corner and she's convinced that they’ll live happily ever after until a surprise contender steps into the ring. In the midst of Shacago and Rosé’s problems is Xavier, the only one of the trio that appears to be thriving. After killing Quan and taking his seat at the table, Xavier is high on cloud nine until he finds out that Shacago is at the head of it. Feeling constantly tossed aside by his employer and snubbed by his brother, Xavier begins to make moves on Shacago’s legacy, vowing not to stop until he's the god of the streets. The only thing missing from his plan is an equally ruthless goddess to rule by his side. Until he meets Luscious. A soft spoken, smooth talking, tatted goddess with a vendetta, Luscious becomes the rock Xavier needs. But what he doesn’t know is that the woman who has became his favorite treat can easily become his poison. With secrets covered in lies, treachery disguised as loyalty, and emotional ties severed when physical bonds are created, will Shacago come out on top? Or will the inked god lose his crown?
