"I didn't used to have every immortal in the world after my head," Jan pointed out. "Or at least I didn't know it."
Had Benjamin just denied spying on him or not? And could he take his word for that? If he seriously were spying he'd deny it, wouldn't he?
Whatever he says, he reminded himself, you can't trust an immortal. It's too dangerous.
"And I'm not fidgety, I'm just being cautious. Which I have very good reason for."
He glanced down at his right hand. Thanks the the Sergeant's lessons his shooting had improved a lot, but he was still far from good enough to trust his skill to protect his life the way his swordsmanship used to.
Even without the loss of his thumb he wouldn't have liked to face either Benjamin or McLeod in battle, though. That little sparring match of theirs had been very impressive.
