Merchantguild Stories

She escaped the Barrel once. Now it wants her back. Six years ago, she ran from her father's criminal empire with nothing but a knife and a stolen name. She thought distance would keep her safe. She thought the past would stay buried. She was wrong. When her father's men find her, she has two choices: return to the underworld that shaped her, or fight back with everything she's become. But the Barrel doesn't forgive. And the man hunting her-Viktor Kaine-doesn't stop. With a crew of outcasts as broken as she is, she'll have to decide: keep running, or burn down the empire that made her. Freedom has a price. She's going to make them pay it.
