Dragons of Asgard 3 Logan Jacobs (book recommendations for teens .TXT) 📖

I agreed. “Let’s have Kas use her invisibility spell so we can sneak up there and attack without being seen.”

“Good idea.” Asta nodded.

“Give me just a second--” Kas started to say, but she didn’t get to finish.

Svass had stepped on a slippery patch, and the little dragon let out a high-pitched squeal as she flew a few feet across the ice, but what was worse was that she got scared and instinctively breathed out a small fire blast.

Kas’ violet eyes landed on mine, and they were wide with horror.

“Maybe they didn’t notice,” Asta whispered.

I looked at the cavern at the end of the tunnel, and all of the frost giants were walking toward the door. Their faces were contorted with anger as they reached for their weapons and bared their yellow teeth.

“They noticed,” I whispered back.

Chapter 17

“Well, the element of surprise is out of the question now.” Eira shrugged and pulled her longsword from its sheath. “Guess it’s time to do this the old-fashioned way.”

“I guess so,” I agreed as I yanked my sword from my hip.

The redhead let out a war cry, and she charged forward with Svass in the air right behind her. Even in such a tense situation, I couldn’t help but think about how sexy she was when she went into battle.

I released a war cry as I ran toward the giants, too, and I could hear Kas and Asta running just behind me. The ice was slick, but we kept our footing well enough, though we weren’t moving as quickly as we usually would.

The frost giants were headed right toward us, too, and all five of them locked their eyes on Eira since she was ahead of the rest of us.

The men stepped forward and tried to swing at the redhead, but she wasn’t stupid, and she used the ice to her advantage. Eira slid underneath the giants and through their legs to land on the other side of them.

One of them let out a confused groan as he spun around, but Eira was quick, and she swung high to try and catch the side of his head with her sword.

These guys were huge, though, and they were quick, too. The frost giant grabbed Eira’s sword, and her blade barely punctured his terribly thick blue skin.

But I couldn’t focus on Eira right then. I was nearly head-to-head with one of the bastards.

The ugly motherfucker had his axe lifted above his head, and he brought it down with a ferocity I'd never seen in an opponent before.

I ducked and came up to the right of him so I could bring my sword down on his arm, but as ugly as the arsehole was, he wasn’t stupid. He spun out of the way just as my sword swung downward, and instead of hitting his arm, my blade collided with the ice below us, and chunks of the frozen liquid flew up into the air.

Before I could regain my footing, the man was on me, and he lifted his huge foot and kicked me square in the chest so I went flying into the room with all the eggs.

“Shite,” I growled as I stood up.

Eira was already locked in battle with the other frost giant in the room, but Kas and Asta were still in the hallway, thankfully. Although, they had another man out there with them so it was three against two, which only made me worry that much more.

These arseholes clearly didn’t care about harming the eggs. They were attacking with full force, which meant Eira and I were limited in what we could do since we didn’t want to put the eggs in danger.

Blar let out a huge fire blast at the man before he could reach me again, and I took that opportunity to flip my sword in my hand so I could send it flying like a spear.

My blade hit the guy in the chest, but it didn’t dig all the way in, and though I willed it to extend, he ripped it out just as it lengthened.

“Fuck,” I breathed, and I stood up and held my hand out.

“Looking for this?” the man snarled as he held up my weapon.

Blar breathed a blue flame into my palm, and my sword disappeared from the frost giant’s hand only to reappear in mine.

The giant’s eyes went wide as he looked at his now empty hand, but that only seemed to make him angrier, and his face twisted as he turned to me once more with his yellow teeth bared.

“I know you aren’t what you look like,” he sneered. “Whatever, whoever you are, you’ve fucked with the wrong giant.”

“I highly doubt that,” I said, and I propelled myself forward with a massive leap as I reared my blade back over my shoulder.

The man ran toward me, too, but I was faster than he was, and I was trying my best to keep him out of the room with the eggs.

A crash sounded behind me, but I had to force myself to keep looking straight ahead. Eira was perfectly capable of taking care of herself, and I knew she’d do her best to make sure the eggs didn’t get hurt.

The frost giant lifted his sword to try and counter my attack, but Blar let out a massive fireball over my shoulder, and the man instinctively pulled his hands up to cover his face.

His head was blocked by his sword, but his shoulder was open, so I came down on the bone with as much force as I could muster, and my blade dug deep into his flesh.

“Fuuuck!” the man screeched through clenched teeth, and he pulled down on his sword to try and catch me while I was close to him.

I was quick, though, and I yanked my
