My heartbeat stormed louder into Sasha's body with every step I took. The tavern looked exactly like I thought it would with long crossbeams of sanded wood lining the walls and a sawdust floor. Flames danced shadows over the walls from inside glass lanterns hung on the walls every few feet.

Toward the left, the door opened.
Shit. I couldn't be seen.
I skirted right, using Sasha to guide me around the corner and into the large tavern area. All empty.
Swift footsteps thudded toward me.
