No Confidence:

Surn grew up a thief of the Old West. His income came from what he could steal, and how much he could sell it for. He knew no family except those he shared the street with.

Until the day he heard of the biggest booty he’d ever heard of.

In the courtyard of Siya, he tried to obtain the most valuable of pieces he’d ever found. There, he ran into another Bounty Hunter also there to obtain the object, as well as the Captain of the City guards, who’d been posted there to protect the expensive object.

The three fought, but in the end, none of them ended up with the artifact.

Instead, they left that city and became a team of mercenaries, called the Sillo Trio, which changed into the Silhouette Quartet a half year later, when thy gained a female member.

Surn left his thieving days behind him. He had a family now, and an income. (If stealing back from those who stole them, then selling those pieces to the police for a hefty sum counted.)

Life is simple, which is the way Surn likes it….until a job goes terribly wrong, and he ends up lost in the middle of a forest with a gorgeous Irish dancer, his own age. She has two broken legs, and the men who drove them out there are hot on their tail.

Surn has to outrun them, get back to town where his mercenary friends are, with this girl on his back, and all without getting himself or this girl, killed.
