     I know I'm about to be fired. After the civil war, when Sven Mishal accepted the mantle of Phoenix King from Mia Hill, it's the obvious outcome. I was appointed by the late, psychotic King Emberich so he won't see my loyalty to the now devastated flocks. Sven has no choice but to get rid of me. It really doesn't help that he's golden, gorgeous and when I'm near him, my heart literally flutters. Stupid heart. Unrest bubbles beneath the surface of the Phoenix community. Most are still angry about how the conspiracy and coup went down, how badly it destroyed lives, and they blame Sven. Enough to want to kill him. How do I stop an assassination with my own life intact?
