Background

Olivia Nevrakis
Olivia is their daughter. They were training her in combat since she was a child, because they wanted her to take over if something happened to them. Olivia says that she will never forgive them for not caring that they had a child to think of.

In The Royal Romance, Book 3, it is revealed that they signed a betrothal between her and Anton Severus, so that they could take over the crown if something happened to the King and he had no heirs.

In The Royal Heir, Book 2, Olivia admits that for all their faults, they taught her to get back on her feet no matter what. They were not around to celebrate Olivia's fifth birthday because they were meeting with their supplier regarding "Operation Snowspear".

Anton Severus
Anton was trained by Olivia's parents when he was a child. The reason was because they wanted her and Anton to rule Cordonia together, with the iron might that courses through her veins.

Constantine
Constantine Rys was the one they wanted to overthrow with their rebellion. He says that their betrayal was a shock to everyone. In their "Operation Snowspear", they used an unnamed supplier with deep pockets to help them prepare.
