"Are we going after the witches after this?" I asked. I leaned down to pat my horse's neck. Seth wanted to travel by motorbike, but I insisted on seeing the route close up, so I wouldn't get us lost. I suggested we walk. This was the compromise.
"Yes. We deal with this enemy, then we deal with the other." He looked pleased at the idea.
"Great, I can't wait." I forced a smile. "You know, I just realised something. They say power is sexy. I'm starting to see what they mean.” I didn’t expect him to buy a word of it, but he drank it down like it was wine.
After a moment of surprise, he puffed out his chest. Men and their egos. He must have thought I’d finally come around to his way of thinking. Of course I had, he was him.
Gag.
"Then this show of power will have you wet between your legs," he said. "We'll take down our enemies and you can choke on my cock while we stand over their corpses."
Yep, he wasn't crazy at all, was he?
"Careful," I said sweetly. "I might leave a puddle on the saddle."Of vomit.
The look he gave me suggested that if we weren't on the way to take down Dex and Devlin, he'd drag me from my horse and be balls deep in my throat right here in the street.
"Patience," he said finally. "We'll have time for that later." He shifted uncomfortably in his saddle and adjusted the front of his pants.
"We're nearly there," I said. "There's a park not far from here, full of the most fragrant flowers. It's the perfect place to have as much power as you want." I chose my words to cater to his ginormous, if fragile ego.
"Perfect." He smiled.
I was almost certain he was picturing me sucking his dick while he killed Dex. Whatever. Let that thought distract him.
"It really is," I agreed. "You'll love it."
He regarded me, then frowned. "Your mood is different today. I like you compliant. Please me, and you'll be rewarded."
I smiled. "I can't wait." My smile faded to a grimace, complete with wrinkled nose. "I'm sorry, we have to pass by here first. It's a bit unpleasant."
I breathed through my mouth to stop from having to inhale the stench of the sewers.
Last time I had a scarf over my face and it was still overpowering.
Seth made a face. "Disgusting. I'll see to that when this is over."
"Yeah, you really should, it's yucky." I scanned the crowds who had moved aside to let the horses through. I tried not to look too closely, but I couldn't help it. My heart raced like crazy.
Were the guys somewhere amongst the—
Seth let out a strange gurgle.
I turned to see him clutching at the knife embedded in his throat.
Hades yeah. I guessed they were out there.
I threw myself off my horse and ducked down as if scared a knife would come for me.
I made it a few steps before someone grabbed my hand.
"Come this way," Aisha urged.
I nodded and followed the young assassin through the crowd and away from the horses.
One of the hemitheos who accompanied Seth shouted and the crowds started to scatter.
Good thing too, because Bain, Dex, and Knox appeared from Hades only knew where and opened fire.
