Excerpt from the book:
Branwyn looked up towards the night sky as she cleaned her nails with the tip of her dagger. She hated to be left waiting and her mood was even fouler when Mako Jon managed to haul his Captain outside, even though it had been moments from when she left the tavern. She had expected them to follow immediately. Obviously, the two men did not realize that she meant serious business. She took one look at Ayden Fletcher and snorted. "How can ye be nefarious when ye can't even walk?" she snapped. She grabbed him by the back of the neck, an easy feat since she was only a few inches shorter than him, and shoved him face first into the horse trough before his befuddled, rum soaked mind comprehended what had just happened. She gazed up at Mako as she held Ayden under the water. "This man has cost me quite a bit of trouble."
Mako Jon rubbed a finger over one eyebrow, glancing towards the people that paused to watch. He waved to them, shooing them on their way. "He's good at that," he commented. He winced as she let Ayden come up for air, forcing the sputtering man back into the trough.
"He's also cost me quite a bit of money," she continued conversationally, as if dunking a drunken pirate was an everyday activity for her. She pulled Ayden out and looked at him before shoving him back under with a disgusted sigh.
"I'm sure."
Branwyn let Ayden back up and looked at him again. His eyes were still a bit hazy with rum and she tossed him under, this time with a little more effort since he had planted his hands firmly along the trough’s edge. "And if he costs me my sister, he will be paying with his life."
