Scotland, 1331
The sound of thunder filled the air as twenty armed Knights Templar
rode toward the town of Douglas at breakneck pace. Peter had been
captured. No matter how useless the world considered their Order, Peter
was still one of them—a Templar hiding in a dangerous world.
Anger erupted, hot and primitive in William Keith as he pushed his
horse and his body to the limit. They were still so far away. Too far. William
bent low against Phantom’s neck, praying for more speed.
Someone had discovered Peter’s connection to the Templars, that he
was the squire to James “Black” Douglas. That connection could very well
cost him his life if they didn’t hurry. William cast a quick glance at the man
who raced beside him, Simon Lockhart, his long-time friend.
Simon responded with a look that said, “hold steady.” That was Simon.
So filled with hope, despite the danger and desperation.
The party of armed men rounded a bend, and the town of Douglas
came into view. A reddish aura rose into the sky as a slender column of
choking gray smoke coiled above the town square. Pain cut through
William at the sight of the flames licking a pile of burning wood. The scent
of burning flesh filled the air, and for a moment his stomach roiled as he
made out the human shape among the cruel bonfire.
Too late. They’d arrived too late.
Please, God, why am I always too late…
His stomach knotted with shame. He squeezed his eyes shut waiting for
the agony to abate. It only intensified. William sucked in a desperate
breath, forcing himself not to gag. “Damn you forever, Pierre de la Roche.”
