wary. It would take a stronger person than her to tame Morgan’s twin. “She doesn’t remember anything. The last thing we want to do is frighten her any more than we already have.”
    “Are we even certain she’s who we think she is?” Jordan’s tone was skeptical. “I mean, isn’t she supposed to be all-powerful?”
    Morgan snorted. “No. She’s just as immortal as the rest of us, but for some reason she believes she’s totally mortal.”
    “So you think it’s amnesia, and someone gave her false memories?” Magnus’s tone became thoughtful, far more like his twin’s. “If so, we can’t tell her too much. I remember hearing that with amnesia cases you can actually make things worse if you give them too much information at once. Sort of like, if you wake a sleepwalker, you can accidentally startle them into a heart attack.”
    “I thought that was a myth?”
    “Are you willing to risk it?”
    One of the brothers sighed roughly.
    “Look, you two. If we could really damage her by telling her everything at once, then I say we hold back.” Skye stiffened as Jordan talked about keeping Skye ignorant about…whatever they were discussing. So much for trusting the Tate-Saeters. “If we tell her who she really is, I’m afraid she won’t take it well.”
    “That’s an understatement.” Morgan’s voice was full of regret. At least one of them didn’t want to keep her in the dark. “We need to fill her in gently, coax her into remembering. The last thing we want to do is cause her any more pain.”
    Aw, how sweet. But if he didn’t fill her in, she’d show him what real pain was.
    “I agree with Morgan. Whatever caused her to forget who she is couldn’t be good. It would take one hell of a trauma to make one of them lose themselves. Besides, we’ve got more important things to worry about.”
    “Like?”
    “Like, where’s Mjolnir ? It should have come to either Morgan or me.”
    “You mean the movies are true?” Jordan’s voice squeaked at the end. “Oh, man, that’s so cool.”
    There was silence, and for a second Skye wondered if they’d moved past her door. Then Morgan spoke once more. “We’re not sure how it’s supposed to work. We might have to go to Dad’s and look for it.”
    “We could try calling for it.” She could almost hear the shrug in Magnus’s voice. If she were a little bit braver she’d sneak to the door and open it, see if she could watch them. But with her luck she’d be caught, and they’d stop talking. She was still hoping one of them would say something more about her. Why did they think she had amnesia? She remembered her childhood perfectly. Hell, she even had a few childhood scars she could show them.
    Something wasn’t adding up. How could she have had a perfectly normal life, yet have a bunch of living myths saying she wasn’t remembering who she was?
    “We could, but if it works do you want to explain to Kir why his window is broken? Or to Logan how his protection wards got taken down? Mjolnir may be one of the few things that could punch right through them without even slowing down.” Morgan sounded frustrated. “Logan’s fire magic is pretty damn strong, but not as strong as Mjolnir .”
    Magnus, his voice just a hair lighter than his twin’s, sounded more amused than annoyed. “We could blame Jordan. She’s pregnant. She could get away with it.”
    There was the twin sounds of flesh on flesh and two masculine voices saying “Ow.” Jordan must have smacked her brothers. “You two should go to Dad’s to look for Mjolnir .”
    “No.” Morgan’s instant disagreement was firm. “I won’t leave Skye unprotected.”
    The warm fuzzies that filled her at the sound of his determination scared her almost as much as the fact that they were discussing mythology like it was the real deal.
    “You seriously think Kir and Logan couldn’t keep her safe?”
    The silence that answered was thick with tension. “I know they can, but…” Morgan’s
