**Plunder—Michael H Lee, Ghostwriter**
"You were raised with everything, whereas I was raised to fight for everything. That is why you can never win against me, brother."
What Ember didn't expect after saying those words was the dizzy spell that held her captive soon after. Even as she wanted to relish in the looks of horror her brother dearest wore on his face as he stared at her like she was a monster, Ember had no choice but to ultimately succumb to the price of her gamble.
She fell backwards, eyes slouching close as she gaped at the sky that was so blue.
But her back didn't reach the ground.
Instead, two different sets of hands caught her from behind, serving as a much needed anchor.
They were both from Rowan Drayven, and the Chancellor of Coins, Zylus Cadiotre.
The latter being the second man whom the Queen assigned her to bring to their side alongside her mission of winning over Dylan Shantaville.
