Defiance (Rise Of The Iliri Book 3) - Plot & Excerpts
"I see you've learned," she whispered, the rowdy noises around them drowning out her words. He only nodded, so she turned to face her soldiers. "And if any of you try that, I'll let him gut you." Laughing, she hopped lightly to the floor, leaving Jase alone on the table. "Listen up!" he yelled, and the men fell silent. "Here's the list. These're the units that'll begin mob'lization in the morning: Archers, 1st, 7th, 23rd...." As Jase called out the units scheduled to meet the Terran force, Sal grabbed Ilija. "Thank you," she told him, looking up at his face. He smiled at her softly. "Hwa told me about it, and I wasn't sure I said it right, but we all mean it. You've done good by us, Sal. You've probably saved at least half their lives. Remember that when it gets rough, ok?" "I'll try. First, I have to get to a council meeting. Tell Jase to come to my office when he's done?" "Yes, sir." Ilija stepped back and saluted her, his fist over his heart in the Anglian style. Sal nodded at him and turned for the door.
