Chapter 19

I smelled the creature, though we hadn't yet seen it. Foul. Dank. It hung in the air like the odor of sweaty dirty socks, with an undertone of testosterone and…

"Oh, that smell," Nithia whispered. "It's horrible. What is that?"

I was at the front of our group, sword drawn. We were close. We couldn't see anything but trees and the undergrowth of the forest in front of us, but we knew the creature had to be near. The path had ended a while back, but Nithia was sure we were going the right way. She pointed to the tops of distant mountains we could see occasionally beyond the treetops. They must've been miles and miles away, but their positions on the horizon gave her enough guidance to get her bearings.

I answered her quietly; we didn't want to announce our arrival to the creature. "Smells like nobody's cleaned the toilet in a while."

Alara came up beside me. "What's the plan?" She was holding her silver staff. She'd been making it glow, but not too brightly. It was enough for us to see our way, but not so much to alert anyone else—or anything else—to our presence. Hopefully.

"Oh, you know," I said, as we slowly walked ahead. "Find Sydney. Rescue her. Try not to get killed in the process."

Alara stopped and got me to do the same by putting her hand on my arm. "Seriously? That's it?"

"Well, what do you want me to say? I'm new to this. Remember?"

Tara joined us, leaving Nithia in the rear, where I'd asked her to stay, for her own safety. "We can't just walked in there together," Tara said. "It'll only make it easier for the creature to spot us."

"You're probably right," I said. "Maybe you three should wait here while I go ahead and check things out."

Tara placed her hand on my chest. "I don't want to overstep my place- No, that's not right. The fact is you're big and strong…" She patted my chest, finishing with a quick glide of her hand across my upper abs. I won't kid you. I liked the compliment and attention, but then she finished what she had to say. "And the one person here most likely to be seen."

She had a point. Since I powered up into Den the Conqueror, I wasn't exactly inconspicuous. And I probably had ninety-plus pounds on any one of the three women. But I'd been wrestling with the fact the three of them had come with me in the first place. Call me old-fashioned, but I'm the kind of guy who thinks a lady shouldn't have to fight the giant creature the ape-men worship. As shitty as it was, I figured that was my job—if it came to it. I had the strength…at least I hoped so. I was pretty decent with a sword, I thought. I mean, how many of the frat boys down the street from my apartment could say they took out even one dark rider—hell-beast included?

Get ahold of yourself, Dennis.
