Buttons and Shame

Tristan is one of my biggest clients. He always pays on time and he always keeps his word. But this time hes short on cash. He needs the shipment now so he offers me collateral. He loans me his slave. Adelina. Now that pearl and I are so close I cant condone this type of exchange. Its wrong. Inhumane. But she wants me. I can tell. And I definitely want her. Buttons and Shame is told from Canes point of view but Crow and Pearl have their own POVs to develop the overall story
