Chapter Nine

I took in the massive village for a long moment. The wargs all seemed to be coming back for the night, but they weren’t alone. There were tons of orcs around, too.

After a moment, I glanced over at Mira, Ainsley, and Jemma, and I jerked my head up at the branches above us to indicate I wanted to get higher.

They all instantly nodded, and we climbed up another thirty or so feet until we were out of earshot of our enemies.

The camp had disappeared behind the canopy below us, but I could still feel it there, like a black void filled with disgusting energy.

“There’s so many,” Ainsley breathed, and I could see she was holding back tears.

“I know.” I nodded, and my heart ached at the way her clear blue eyes gazed down through the branches to where the orcs’ camp sat far below us. “But right now, we can’t focus on the number. We need to get some sort of idea of how they operate. Where we can hit them first … ”

I trailed off, and what I didn’t want to say out loud was what I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about.

There were so many. I hadn’t even been able to get an accurate count yet of the number of orcs and wargs in that camp, but I knew they outnumbered us, sure as hell. And they outnumbered us even if we actually had a full army of fifty women.

Which, honestly, we really didn’t.

The women weren’t battle ready. Ainsley and Jemma could hold their own, but they were the only ones out of the entire village. I’d thought we’d have more time to plan and train, but I wasn’t so sure now that I’d seen a fucking orc village on this island. Who knew how fast they’d manage to swarm into the island’s interior? More wargs, more orcs, and less hiding spots for the women. Which meant we’d have a battle on our hands faster than I wanted.

One thing was for sure, though. Mira and I couldn’t take them all on ourselves. I needed to come up with a strategy, a different plan of attack.

“Ben,” Mira murmured and put a hand on my thigh in comfort. She knew me too well and could already tell the wheels in my mind had started to spin out of control.

“We need backup,” I sighed.

“What do you mean?” Jemma asked.

“I mean we need more fighters,” I replied. “I hadn’t expected to find an army’s worth of orcs when we ventured out here, and even a Dragon King can’t defeat an entire army by himself.”

“What should we do?” Ainsley asked.

Her big eyes were full of nothing but trust, and as I looked into their clear blue depths, I snapped myself out of whatever funk of defeat had taken a hold of me.

I couldn’t give up, and I wouldn’t. These women needed me to come up with a plan. They trusted me to save not only them, but also their home.

And that was just what I planned to do.
