Callum heard Elenna’s voice and knew that what she said was true. This was his only chance. The sword glinted dully in the night.
“I’m coming out,” said Callum. “You can have that cursed sword.”
He thought he heard Elenna sigh with relief.
And then he did the one thing he should never have done. Even as he heard Elenna telling him, “Don’t touch the sword,” his hand had reached out and closed over the hilt.
In an instant he forgot who he was. All that mattered now was the sword. And he was not going to let these people have it. He stood up very straight and pointed the sword at the group of gun wielding hunters. His eyes were burning red with blood lust.
“You can’t have this sword,” he yelled. “If you want it, you’ll have to fight me for it.”
