Chapter Twenty-One
Stanley Kendall
Could a dragon laugh? I was certain Brian was getting some kind of sadistic glee out of demolishing the room. He was like an adult with bubble wrap, and couldn't just leave it alone with one pop. Using his cell phone, I snapped a couple of pictures and even recorded almost a minute of him in his dragon form, big black feet tap dancing as if he was Fred Astaire. His tail swished around, gleefully smashing clay figurines to a tempo that almost sounded like cymbals in a big band.
"I thought you guys were human, some kind of special forces to break us out," Adam accused, taking a step back, the revulsion clear in his expression.
As far as I knew, Marduk had given him no reason to believe those different than humans were good individuals.
"He is special forces," Leora snapped from the doorway. Blood dripped from her temple and was smeared across her face, but she seemed whole, if battered.
At her sudden appearance, Adam and the others hastily withdrew and clustered together in the farthest corner.
"We need to leave immediately." Leora eyed the group, her mouth pressed into a thin line.
"Let me clean up here." Pointing a finger at the humans, I said, "Help me destroy these vessels and the sooner we can get out of here." I tipped over the table next to me to demonstrate what I meant.
Disgusted or not over our lack of human status, the nine men and women desperately wanted to leave. A couple went about the task with relish. I would too if I'd been kidnapped and kept against my will to do the bidding of an arrogant God I knew nothing about. Their entire world had been disrupted, irrevocably changing their life. Yeah, I'd be fucking pissed.
While we worked, Leora and her hunters dragged Maressa and her guards into the room and secured their limbs, taping their mouths shut. They had a front row seat to watch Brian make short work of the pottery in the next room.
Taking Brian's phone out of my pocket again, I snapped a couple of pictures of the bound guards and the humans. I couldn't help but take more video of Brian because no one would believe me if I told them he pranced and pounced like a puppy at play. And because I was an ass, I sat on my heels next to Maressa, ignoring the hatred and the fear in her eyes.
"You better think long and hard where your loyalties lie once The Voice, The Heart, and The Sword free your people. Because if I ever see you act the way you did today, I'll kill you myself so they don't have to deal with you."
"Adon Kendall," Leora said, approaching, "the Sword has finished his work. If you're done, we need to flee."
The guards with Maressa flinched at the title Leora used, peering around me to catch sight of Brian striding back into the room with a pleased expression, his scale silk clothing and armor none the worse for wear.
