Victoria was stuck between royalty and dying. Her family was in the slums of poverty, but still had the blessing of a roof over their head and the meager amount of food that barely kept them afloat. When a new crown jewel is made, and Victoria being a desperate thief, sets her sights on the priceless piece. Her informant, Xavier, will help her through her heist, but what secrets could he hold that he isn't telling her? It all changes when they get to their donation, and the tables turn on the two thieves. Imprisoned in the royal dungeons, she's never loathed the nobles' gold-lined blood more. Hate boiling in her veins, she sets her sights on getting herself and Xavier out of there before it's too late.
