A sharp crack split the night. The sound of his neck snapping.
Tor released him and fixed his eyes on us.Get inside. Now.
I tore my attention from Dimitri’s dead eyes and allowed Rune and Leif to herd me back to the house. I sensed Tor right behind us. The door was yanked open and Halle stepped back to let us in.
Heat kissed my skin and the change in temp from chilly to warm had me tearing off my jacket and stripping off my polo sweater so I was in a vest and jeans.
“Cora!” Wren hugged my leg.
“You okay?” Halle asked.
Prickling power stung my skin as Tor and Leif shifted to human form.
“I’m fine.” I picked Wren up and hugged him.
Tor pulled on his jeans and boots before heading back out. “I’ll put the body in the garage, you call Anna.”
Leif finished tugging on his boxers. “On it.”
I followed Tor and stood in the doorway as he clomped across the porch, the powerful muscles of his naked back rippling in the moonlight.
He came to a halt at the steps. “Motherfucker.”
I followed his gaze to the spot where he’d broken Dimitri’s neck.
The body was gone.
