Beth's POV
Why was Henry here? Aaron and I looked at Henry in surprise as he sized us up calmly and asked, "There will be slaughter tonight?"
He was aware of every bit of our plan and every piece of information we had. Instead of trying to foolishly hide from him and fudge, I simply nodded and replied, "Yes."
Henry shook his head and smiled. A trace of contempt flashed across his eyes as he fiddled with his sharp teeth and questioned us in a flat tone, "Do you have any idea what slaughter is? Do you know what will happen here tonight? Do you really believe you can guard the church when there are only two of you? Shall I praise your courage or laugh at your ignorance and overconfidence?"
I had to admit that I hadn't thought about the problem raised by Henry. I could feel from his words that he was very confident about what was going to happen.
"How did you know our plan?" I sounded Henry out.
