[Gods on Earth 03] • Tyr

’m trying to save her life.

I’m trying to stop a war.

But nothing about Marion Ravenscroft is easy.

And the world wants to careen into war, no matter what I do.

I’m out of practice in dealing with human women.

Especially human women who do strip teases for me, the first time I meet them. Especially human women I feel strangely drawn to, pulled into, like I knew her before I even met her. Especially human women who won’t do a damned thing I say.

I’m Tyr, God of War, son of Odin.

I’m supposed to be the adult in the room. Among my brothers, I’m the one who is duty-bound to keep the humans from destroying themselves, to keep peace among their tribes. Yet it was Loki who sent me on this quest, when his new wife stumbled upon a plot to kidnap the daughter of the President of the United States.

It should have been an easy way to stop a war. A simple tracking job. A simple rescue. I deliver Marion to her father, and then I deal with the dark forces attempting to harm her.

But Marion won’t let me save her.

She also might be the thing to finally make me lose my cool.
