Chapter Seventeen
Izzy
I whirl toward the other guys. Did they hear what Reid said? No, they still look confused and scared as hell.
“Wilder’s been taken over by his god!”
Van and Aiden spring away from him.
“No…” Van begins.
Wilder’s expression changes and an evil glint reaches his eyes. “Oh, yes.”
Suddenly, he seems to grow and swell. His clothes tear and rip until his shirt pops off and his pants are nothing but tatters. He lifts a hand, and the spear suddenly flies out of Reid’s belly and back into Wilder’s hand.
“You have a choice now,” he says, his voice calm. “I can save the bag of human flesh that is your friend, or you can fight me. But if I save him, I need your word that you’ll let me leave unharmed.”
My heart clenches. What he’s asking… He’s asking us to choose between Wilder and Reid. It’s an impossible choice. If we let the god leave in Wilder, we may never be able to pull the god out again. We might lose him forever.
But Reid… I look back at him. He lies in a pool of blood, his skin pale. My only comfort is that he seems to have passed out from the pain.
And then his eyes flutter open.
I kneel down beside him. “It’s okay. We’ll make you better. We’ll--”
“Then do we have a deal?” Odin says, his deep voice unnerving as it booms from Wilder’s mouth.
“Don’t,” Reid rasps. “I won’t die from this. I can’t die. But we could lose Wilder.”
Tears fill my eyes. What he says logically makes sense, but can I really leave him to suffer? To wait and see what happens when a human with a god inside of him bleeds out?
I comb my fingers through his hair and lean forward, kissing his cold forehead.
“You can help Wilder push him back, but he has to want to,” he whispers raspily.
“What?” I ask, shocked. Did I hear him right? “He wants to control Odin…”
“Does he?” Reid asks, then winces and squeezes his eyes closed.
“Izzy?” Aiden says my name. In his hand, he holds Thor’s hammer, and it glows in his fist. Anger radiates from him. But I can see it in his eyes; he doesn’t know what to do.
Van stands beside him, his sword in his hand. I can feel the rage beneath his skin as he squares off with Odin, but I also know he isn’t sure what to do. Revenge he understands, but how does one fight their own friend?
I kiss Reid one last time and stand. I feel my powers wash over me, and I sense myself shifting, but into what I don’t know. Within seconds, I stand as tall as Odin. My body feels like my own, only a massive version of itself.
“We want our Noah Wilder back,” I say.
Odin laughs. “Your human is naught but a squeaky voice inside the body that is now mine.”
I need to know Odin’s weaknesses. I need to know who he is.
Reaching inside myself, I do something I’ve never done before: I search for Loki.
