And that’s when the ground began shaking.
Little wolf, why are you here?A voice sounded in my head.
I went still. I was invisible. But this guy was a demigod. The mages were running for cover, but from what I could see, the earthquake wasn’t unexpected. Obviously, it was one of the few ways the demigod could show his displeasure.
“I’m here to figure out how to free you,” I whispered, hoping he’d hear me. I wasn’t sure if the whole talking to him in my head thing would work.
I wish to sleep.
“I know. I’m sorry they woke you up.”
Come closer.
I padded toward him, and even though his eyes were closed, I had a pretty good feeling he could see me.
Other side, he instructed. Pushy bastard.
A low laugh sounded in my head, and I froze. Could he—
Read your mind? Of course. Why do you think I spoke to you? You’re the only one here who isn’t attempting to suck my power dry.
“Yeah, sorry about that.” I crossed around those massive feet, aware that his toenails were the size of my face.
This side of his body was closest to the cave wall. I took a good look and went still.
Ah,you see it.
Yes, I fucking saw it.
Strapped to the demigod’s side, looking absurdly small given how big he was…
Was an empty sword sheath.
Return my sword and remove these chains so I can sleep. Please.
The last word sounded foreign. He likely hadn’t ever used the word before.
I stared at the demigod and forgot how to breathe. My suspicions were correct.
Selina had been clear. Steal the sword from Finvarra and return it to its owner. Or the worlds burn. Well, I’d found the owner. But if I returned the sword and sent him back to sleep…
The portals to our world would close.
Forever.
The End
