My lips quirked.
“Mabel is beside her. Her husband is Romeo. He’s not a member of the club, but he’s good friends of the rest of the club brothers. Then you have Boone’s wife, Nettie. And Eddy, Nettie’s sister. She’s married to Weaver.”
I shook my head. “That’s a lot of names.”
They all gave a quiet chuckle.
“I never in my life thought that Odin would settle down,” Holly said. “But seems like I was wrong.”
A child’s screech, followed by, “Odin!” had me whipping my head to the side.
Elation coursed through me as I saw Odin eating up the ground between Wendy and him.
My smile was soft as he lifted her up and smacked a kiss on her cheek.
She wrapped her small arms around his shoulder as he spoke quietly to her.
Wendy looked around, eyes searching.
Then she pointed at me and screamed, “There!”
His eyes gleamed as he headed my way.
“I can see it now.”
I peeled my eyes away from Wendy and Odin to look toward Bernice. “What?”
“You two,” she said. “I can see it now. I didn’t before.”
I smiled, even though some sadness seemed to filter into her eyes.
I wondered if she’d had feelings for Odin.
Not that it would matter.
No way in hell would I give him up.
I’d fight her to the death for him.
She smiled, and it finally reached her eyes.
Maybe she wasn’t in love with him. But maybe the idea of him.
“He’s half my heart.”
Before she could reply, Odin arrived.
And swept me right off my feet. “There you are.”
Wendy giggled and pressed a kiss to my cheek right along with Odin on the other side.
“Odin,” she whispered. “Where have you been? Mama Coco said that you were busy cutting up bodies.”
Odin snorted. “Is that right?”
Wendy nodded.
“I kind of was,” Odin admitted.
