Abuse Of Power (Rise Of The Mages 1) - Plot & Excerpts
Justav raced against the end of night. The moonlit woods on both sides of the road passed in a blur, and still he dug spurs into Victoro. The beast would go no faster. Not nearly long enough until sunrise. He glanced back, gritting his teeth when he found his thirty men spread like peasants harvesting grain. “Keller! Tighten the formation.” The debasement of raising his voice to be heard over the thundering hooves galled him. “My lord, the horses in the rear are pushing as hard as they can. Your mount is the fastest.” “The sand spirits take your excuses!” Why had Justav expended so much gold to provide his men with the best animals if they were still going to complain? “I'll have the mage tonight.” His sweaty stench mingled with the disgusting odor from his animal. Grime coated every part of him. Muscles throbbed from constant riding. Twenty nights, he’d hunted his prey.
