Ember expects a proposal but watches Chace become engaged to rival-family daughter Karyn Warren instead. He intends to keep Ember under his control, using threats and her father’s gambling debts as leverage. She contacts Don Keith Mosley to invoke a Blood Oath tied to that debt. His price is marriage, and Ember accepts the condition, choosing an alternative to the future Chace has assigned her.
