You were always the smart one, the one in the corner of the room with a mouthful of words. Always talking, the rest of the family sometimes wishes you would just shut up. It's something you heard way too often, and one day, after one too many "shut up"s, you did. Now you're the one in the corner, quietly observing, watching from a distance, learning everything you know now, and you were hating too; you hate the mere mention of your cousins or your siblings. They silenced you once too many, casting you aside as just the youngest even though you just know you're better than them.

So you bide your time. You wait. You learn the aspects of the business. You learn your history from listening to Kade's rants, how to fire a gun from Trace's movements, how to collect secrets from Blanche's whispers. You know that when it's time to take over this business, when you're older, you will succeed.
