  **A DEADLY GAMBIT**
  
  
  Lucien Florian Nigellus. Vitala had never met him, yet he’d occupied her
  thoughts and shaped her studies for years. His biographical information
  painted a picture of an isolated man. Both his elder brothers were dead; his
  father had been forcibly deposed and imprisoned on the island of Mosar. He had
  no heirs and had not yet married. His only close relatives were an aunt, a
  female cousin, and a younger sister, none of whom were eligible for the
  throne. _He’s crippled and alone,_ Bayard had said. _Kill him, and you will
  spark a succession battle that will tear the empire apart._
