Gwain stiffened slightly but quickly masked his unease with an air of casual

indifference. He lifted his chin ever so slightly, his hands clasped behind his

back, and offered a small smile. “That would be me, just a humble fellow.”

“I have long heard of your reputation. It is a pleasure to finally meet you.”

Emmanuel made a polite gesture, though the civility of it barely concealed

his true intentions. “I wonder, Mr. Lannister, what made you capture my sister?

steady, though there was a defiant edge to his words. “However, your sister

growing sympathy. A cold, humorless smile curled on his lips. “Mr. Lannister, I

have three questions for you.”

“Ask away.” Gwain’s expression grew tensé, his eyes hardening.

Emmanuel raised three fingers, his gaze unwavering.
