Gudleif's Dilemma

Gudleif was huffing and panting, he had numerous injuries on his body, clutching his lower torso in pain.

"What the fuck? How is he so strong?" Gudleif thought to himself, the fact that Asger wasn't armed made this all the more impressive but Lagerha was now out of her binds.

Gudleif knew if he could take Lagertha hostage, he should have the upper hand in this battle.

This was the only way to regain control of the situation because, for some reason, this man didn't want to kill him.

And he was about to use that to his advantage but Asger looked over at Lagertha walking towards them.

"Now!" Gudleif saw his chance and dashed towards her with the intent of taking her hostage.

He noticed that Asger had seen him and expected him to interrupt but Asger watched him.

Lagertha was able to free herself because of the dagger that Asger had given her to cut herself loose.
