The assassin paced the shadowed area he concealed himself in. Almost had him. If only that stupid woman hadn’t shown up. It was the perfect time to murder Tesnayr. He was alone and the night provided good cover. If only he had taken his chance. Now he must wait for another time to kill Tesnayr. His master would not be pleased, but what choice was there?
