Chapter 12:

Hunter didn’t have to be told that he wasn’t included in the dismissal, staying put by the window while the others poured out of the room.

Odin watched him while they waited, an enigmatic expression written across his devilish face. He’d dyed his hair again. This time a deep blue shade that made the silver jewelry lining his ears stand out even brighter. The rings on his fingers dinged against the smooth surface of the table as he strummed them against the wood, clearly pondering over something and sorting out how he was going to word it.

“Should I sing a song in the meantime?” Hunter finally proposed, making sure a thread of irritation slipped into his tone. “While you figure out whatever it is you’re trying to figure out?”

“Do you remember—”

“Gods.” He rolled his eyes and tipped his head back against the cool glass of the window, keeping it there as he stared up at the light gray ceiling. “Can we not?”

“Why? Already tired of me, Huntsman?”

“What I’m tired of, Snow,” without moving his head his eyes slid back to him, “is discussing things we cannot change. You’re the one who said as much before, remember?”

“Doesn’t it make you nervous?” Odin tilted his chin. “Isn’t that why you asked for exclusivity as one of your terms for the mating?”

For a second all he could do was frown, unsure what the man was referring to before it finally hit him and he snorted. “You mean because you were with Isa yet clearly into me back then? No. It doesn’t make me nervous.”

“Are you lying?”

He considered it. “When I was nineteen, I hated seeing the two of you together. When did you start fucking again?”

“We were sixteen the first time,” Odin answered unabashedly.

“Right.” Hunter hadn’t been a part of the Brumal then, mostly only around when his father needed him to stop by for something. Odin had only just turned seventeen when his father had gotten Hunter to join.

Seventeen, and already a god among men. Already so full of experience. Even though he was older, Hunter had been awed by him. By how put-together and confident he’d been.

“Who was the one who didn’t want to think about the past again?” Odin teased.

“I suppose it’s difficult not to when that’s where most of our memories together are. Everything since…” They hadn’t exactly been filled with sunshine and rainbows.

“You were very quiet,” Odin said, “back then. Soft-spoken. You’d only really look at me when you thought no one was paying attention. I used to go out of my way to pass you in the halls. I was already sleeping with Isa but you’d caught my attention.”

He sighed, knowing where he was going with this now. “If you keep pressing this issue, I might end up thinking it’s because you want to screw other people. Already.” It’d only been a month since their mating, if he was already bored with Hunter…

How did he feel about that possibility?

Angry. He scowled. “If you break your promise, I’ll break mine.
