Embarrassing Moment
Chapter 14 Embarrassing Moment
Victor headed for a nearby tree and changed into Sylvia. She had not decided exactly what she was going to do yet, but time was quickly running out and she needed to drastically reduce their numbers. Then she saw how they had set up the camp again. It was perfect. There was a fire too close to one of the main tents. It only took a few minutes to make sure it spread.
Then she headed o

Mikail looked to Ian who immediately ran out of the tent and started waking the camp and ordering them to get their weapons ready. He stood and told Sylvia how bad it was of her to leave without telling them what she was doing or where she would be. She told him flatly that she said she would not allow them to escape if it were in her power to prevent it and that was exactly what she was doing. He had no reply to that one, so they just returned to preparing for the battle.When they were prepared as they could be, they left the tent and found the rest of the camp was doing the same. They led the men through the shortcut to the bridges the enemy would be trying to cross in a matter of minutes. As they were arriving at the bridges, so were the other soldiers. The battle ensued immediately. It was obvious that they still had superior numbers, but that Captain Tane’s men had superior skill.

"Get the HELL out of the captain’s tent before Idodecide to break you!""You look to be in enough pain that you couldn’t break me if I were unarmed," Emmett said quietly. Victor swept his left leg out from under the light blanket, swept Emmett’s feet from underneath him and held a throwing knife at Emmett’s throat. The movement evoked a small scream of pain, but Victor kept the blade steady, stubbornly refusing to flinch. "I stand...um...lay corrected. You sleep with your weapons?""I trust precious few, Emmett, and you are not on that privileged list." Victor practically spat Emmett’s name, and might have if he had not been talking through clenched teeth."I only came to see how you are," Emmett replied trying not to move his lower jaw for fear that would cause the blade to slice deeper than he thought it already

Chapter 15 Lord KurnWithin the week, Victor’s leg was pronounced healed, they struck the camp, and moved onward. The going was as smooth and fast as could reasonably be expected with a troop of men through forested foothills. As they went, Mikail thought Sylvia was growing more restless, but then again, he thought that he could be imagining things. When he asked Ian he was told that there was something out of the ordinary, but Ian couldn’t figu

"No one would ask you for charity, Lady, your price will be assured by the lord’s own son. Should you need to speak to him, you would only need to wait at the tree by the river at noon for him to take his daily ride." She looked at the man who seemed to be aging before his time and worn with worry and fear. She placed the money for her drink that she had finished and the meal that had yet to arrive on the table."I have ordered a plate that I must abandon due to a change in my schedule. See to it that my order is paid for and not wasted and I will talk to the son of your lord," she told him as she rose from the table, "You shall not know me again." He nodded consent as she left. He understood that she had paid for a meal she had no intention of eating herself and that he was to see to it that someone else did eat it. Although he did not understand why she would choose to do something like that he did not dare ask and

"This is not for us to eat, Ian, but I will make sure that we get some later," she replied. "Help me move the cage. Don’t worry," she saw the look on his face, "he won’t wake until I tell him to." She held up a dart and Ian smiled. They hauled the cage for a long distance until they were close to the private riding area of Lord Kurn. Sylvia put the squirrel in a bush next to the trail and covered a rag in its blood. "Wait here, Ian, I’ll be back in a little while."She took off and he lost sight of her.Great! More waiting. Just what I wanted.He said to himself. He plopped himself down next to the cage.Sylvia saddled the horse and spread the blood on the horse’s breast. Lord Kurn came into the barn to prepare his horse for his daily ride. "Who are you and why have you saddled my horse?" he demanded."My Lord," she said u

Chapter 16 DepartureIan walked up to Mikail and asked what he had said to Sylvia. Mikail told Ian that Sylvia had bedded Lowell. Ian’s jaw dropped. Mikail’s face did not mask the pain he felt."Mikail, go to her. Apologize for what you said. You know she only did that because you turned her down. Ask her not to do it again." Ian urged him."She made it very clear that I have no right to tell her what to do with

Ian dropped the letter as he turned and punched a tree. It hurt him more than it did the tree, but thanks to the gloves he had not taken off, the skin on his hand remained intact. Mikail had been watching Ian and thinking that he had a letter from Mora so he had given him privacy. When he saw Ian hit the tree, he could not imagine what Mora could possibly have said to make Ian act that out of character and ran to his aid."Ian what is wrong?" he asked urgently. Ian picked up the letter, handed it to Mikail, and rubbed the hand he had used to attack the tree. He looked up at Ian in confusion."Youidiot!" Ian began, "if it hadn’t been for your pride being wounded she would have told you when she was leaving and you would have had

Chapter 17 Mikail’s MeetingSylvia was thinking of Mikail, too, as she silently crept through the secret passages of the old castle where The Five resided. They always took the noon meal together in private if they were present, so she did not have much time left to get to the room. The door, the only door anyone knew about, would be locked and barred from the inside so they could plot without being overheard.Whoever had created this passage was clever. They had hid the opening behind a por
