Welcome Back to Bloodthirsty Thursday!
CHAPTER 26
The Horn galloped across the moor, hooves sinking into boggy ground.
Part of him wished to warn the second Jacobite force.
Part of him wished to watch them suffer.
To kill them himself.
To kill the British, too.
To kill everyone who was allowed to die and stay dead.
It didn’t matter in the end.
The second force reached the government sentries and understood. “Abort!” the Duke of Perth hissed. His officers spat the command down the lines, an order that ricocheted between wary soldiers. Over a thousand men pivoted, the force veering around, a carriage on two wheels.
Disappointment.
Depression.
Both coursed through the Horn.
The march had been for nothing.
Fantastic as always, amazing Halo!! So much suspense. I can’t help but feel like something sneakily violent will happen next. 😅 Looking forward to the next chapter!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Nooooooooooo.......for nothing?!?!
