Chapter 137: Assassinating Ethan

**Ethan’s POV

After several days of running with very little sleep, we decided we needed to make a camp for the night. I knew that my fighting forces could stand up against any other soldiers in the world, but even the strongest warriors would need time to restore their stamina.

It was dark, and the stars were beginning to descend as the sun would be coming up soon enough. We’d better take advantage of the darkness before heading into another long day tomorrow.

I surveyed the area. We could take shelter against a rocky slope that would protect us from one side. We’d have to watch the other three to make sure that we weren’t attacked from any other direction.

‘I agree,’ I said, after I finished examining the place Talon had selected.
