Chapter 195: Plans with Odin

Finnick.

In my entire life, I had never met a woman who puzzled me as much as Cassie did. Watching her leave my room I couldn't help but want to figure out every last thing about her. The problem was that while I was here. I was having to share her attention with two other men that I knew she had deep relationships with. Something that I wasn't privy to obtain yet.

For days my mind had been going over how I could get closer to her. The games were only a cover for being here. Today when I faced my opponent. I didn't even need to move to know that I would win. The man I faced was nothing but a boy and the moment he launched himself forward, I took him down with ease.

I was hundreds of years older than they were, and my skills far surpassed anything that any of them would ever have. I may not have been a god. but I was godly in other ways.

Turning back towards my wet bar, I poured another glass of the lilac concoction into my glass and chased it back with a sigh. Cassie had made it clear that she missed her family and wasn't able to see them. I hadn't known it was impossible for an immortal to travel to other realms but perhaps that is simply what they had told her to keep her here in Asgard.

If that was the case... it was fucked up.

A new determination set into my heart as a smile crossed my face. If she wanted to go home then I could take her. and I would be her chaperone, which would give me time to get to know who the real Cassie was.

There was no game to what I was doing. Cassie was my mate, and the woman I was destined to be with. I had foreseen her coming for so long and now that I had my eyes on her, there was no way that I was going to let her go.

As I placed my glass down. I quickly exited my quarters and made my way down the hallway in search of one person who could help me with what I wanted. As much as I would normally have just taken her wherever she wanted to go, I wasn't in my realm. Odin would have my head if I simply let her go where she wanted.

So that meant I needed his permission.

Aro, my guard and oldest friend, matched my footsteps in silence as he followed me toward the main courtyard where Odin frequented this time of day. Since the moment I arrived in Asgard. I had Aro follow and keep track of every single person here of importance. No matter what my father had said about this place being safe, or Odin being his oldest friend-l didn't trust it.

"Are you sure that you want to do this, Finn?" he asked, causing my gaze to turn to him, taking in his tall muscular stature and long shoulder-length black hair that was pulled back into half updo with silver pieces woven in. It was different seeing him out of his usual armor and not with his sword but I was pleased to have him with me regardless.
