Chapter 11
Odyn
Fuck.
Shoving the door wide open, I hear the squeak as the hinges protest my rough handling, but I donât care. I canât believe Mila did that. She should be training and learning how to hone her power. Sheâs far too strong and far too fucking ignorant.
God, the woman is a pain in my ass.
A hot one.
But still a fucking pain.
Leaning my head against the cool metal of the fridge door, I close my eyes and breathe deeply. I need to calm the hell down, or Iâll be the one doing something stupid like raising the dead.
Unbuttoning my shirt, I make my way into the living room and throw my wallet and keys on the sofa before heading to the kitchen. Iâve wandered the city all night, and now the sun is streaming through my windows, warning me of a new day. Iâm not ready to face it, so when the tingling starts in my spine, I close my eyes and focus my energy on the person coming through.
âSheâs feisty,â Milaâs motherâs voice comes from behind me. âI told you sheâs strong. With her fatherâs strength and my power in her blood, thereâs no telling what sheâll be able to do.â
âI know. I really do. I just wish sheâd listen to me.â Spinning on my heel, I meet those familiar eyes. âIâm sorry.â
She smiles. A soft, tinkling laugh falls from her lips. âItâs okay, Odyn.â
Running my fingers through my hair, I tug the strands, hoping to all thatâs holy sheâll finally listen to me now.
âDonât give up on her,â she pleads.
I just want to be alone with my feelings. I need to wade through everything that's happened and figure out what the hell weâre going to do. But thatâs not whatâs bothering me.
I want her. I shouldnât, but I do.
Seeing her in her element was more than enough to solidify my want of this woman whoâs walked into my life, and now all I can think of is her.
âOdyn,â Milaâs mother says once more, breaking through my thoughts loud and clear, and I focus on not thinking about having her daughter naked in my bed. Fuck. Iâm in so much trouble.
âMs. Moroz,â I respond with a smile in the hope she hasnât been able to gauge my reaction to her daughter.
âCall me Mya,â she tells me, dismissing my formality. âI know I asked you to look after Mila, but I didnât realize that included bending her over your dining room table.â I snap my gaze to hers. Sheâs a shimmering form against the window, as if there are lights projecting her against the glass.
âI didnât mean any disrespect, Ms. Moroz. . . I mean, Mya,â I tell her. I attempt to walk toward her, but the moment I do, she shimmers away, and Iâm left with a view of the city.
âI wasnât angry,â she says from behind me, causing me to spin on my heel and find her at the head of the table staring down at the Book of Shadows.
