Chapter 727

• Taggart watched the hall his new partner was to come from. A woman. They sent a woman to help him keep watch of the island and get what they needed set up for the other Alliance warriors that were coming. He had nothing against the gentler sex. In fact, he was very pleased with them in many ways. He wasn’t used to working with women where he’d come from, it wasn’t safe for them, and often he hid them or helped them escape the country.
• He looked down to see that the paper with the false name on it was upside down. Turning it around, he looked for this woman again. What did she look like? He knew what tough women from his part of the world looked like, so he thought he would know it was her for sure. Checking the big clock, he realized he still had a few minutes before he would be meeting her.
• Turning, he scanned the area and looked for anyone that was watching him. It was probably not needed, but after twenty years of looking over his shoulder, he had to do it as much as he had to breathe and stay alive.
