I smile as I stand across from Latherga who is standing in a white silk dress we took off of an Asian trader.

"Today, we come together to tie together two souls that of Vidar Mikaelson and Latherga Lothbrok." Ayana says as she looks at me proudly, "I use this rope today to symbolize the connection, the twining of two lives together." Ayana continued as she tied my left arm to Latherga's arms together with the rope.

"With this I untie two souls, now you two go unite your bloodlines!" Ayana says in a cheering shout.

'Waiting till my twentieth year…to be wed maybe a bit extreme…but…I guess a part of me wanted to be sure with my family ties to all but Mikael and Ayana being strained…strained…more like weak and fragile.'

'I guess that isn't true though, I've taught Elijah and Niklaus to hunt and track while also helping to train them in fighting, and I've secretly been playing with Rebekah teaching her how to properly hold a sword and getting her used to swinging a weighted practice sword around.'

Truth be told I had to take on the duty of training my younger siblings.

Mikael has just grown too cold, too brutal and too unforgiving to be a good teacher.

'I hope…I look good like this…Latherga insisted I keep my hair long…' I wonder in my mind as I try to remember that my body has filled out and even with the scarring I look like a mid-twenties Henry Cavil as Geralt of Rivia except I don't have the eyes. 

At a fast pace I lift Latherga up into my arms and walk off of the stage into the traditional Longhouse Mikael and I built for me to start my own family within…except for the addition of indoor plumbing made out of clay and rough hewn stone popping with natural pulps working as gaskets to keep everything sealed up tight to prevent leaks. 

"Are you going to claim me maidenhood finally?" Lagthera

gasps as I throw her onto the bed of down feathers, my tunic and trousers hit the floor along with my boots, I jump and playfully land on top of Lagthera, grabbing and gripping the chest area of her dress, I tear it open with my hands exposing her perky pale breasts and pale nipples, the split in the dress opening wider revealing her toned Abdomen, her muscles flutter as I run my hands along her smooth soft skin, free of scars thanks to my always tending to her injuries.  

"Stop playing with me and fuck me already!" Lagthera growls at me as she grabs my cock, in a harsh grip.

Smirking down at her smacking her right breast harshly, making her whimper and start stroking my cock with her hand that loosens slightly.

"Please husband…you've made me wait so long…" Lagthera begs me, making me smile at her as I rip the once beautiful dress off of her all the way open, turning it into a sheet.

"Finally!" Lagthera and I express together in pleasure as I stretch her virgin walls apart for the first time, and feel Lagertha dig her nails into my back and drag them down it's length, as I start to pound into her.

"Yes, yes…we should-mmm-done this-haa seasons ago-nngh." Lagthera moans as our hips smack together and hold onto both of her breasts for hand holds.

"We should have." I groan in agreement as Lagertha flips us over and puts me on my back her hands resting against my chest, I slide my right hand down from Lagertha's right breast, track down her side along her ribs stroke her tummy before continuing down to stroke her clit as she slowly slid her hips up and down my length.

"Mmm-Ahh-ahh-Haa-haasss, so much better than my own hands." Lagertha moans.

Sitting up in bed as the sun shine through the leather coverings over where the windows should be, I hold my hand over where Lagertha's womb should be.

"suffocare omnem vitam crescente intus, suffocare omnem vitam crescente intus, suffocare omnem vitam crescente intus." I chant an abortion/sterilization spell softly so as not to wake my beautiful warrior wife…even though it broke my heart to do so, completing the spell feeling the magic settle in as the talisman I always wear in the form of a bracelet becomes inert.

Moving a few errant strands of pale blonde hair out of Lagthera's face, 'My love…I know you don't wish to have children but would give them to me out of your love but I will not add to my pain of losing someone else to Dahlia.' I say to Lagthera…in my mind who over the years has mentioned a few times that she would prefer to remain by my side as my shield than have children but she would for me.

I hear the horns and bells that signal an incoming attack, I quickly shake Lagthera awake who moans and tries to pull away from me.

Leaning over my beautiful wife, my lips hovering centimeters from her ear.

"Lagertha, wake up, it's time to do battle." I whisper seductively in my wife's ear jarring her to awakeness.

"To arms!" Lagertha shouts and jumps up from the bed knocking me off onto the wooden floor as Lagertha.

"What are you doing on the floor, get up, it's time for battle!" Lagertha looks at me, her eyes blazing in lust for battle making my cock rise to full hardness, as her beautiful lithe but curvy body is drenched in morning light making her look like the epitome of a warrior goddess.

"N-not that kind of battle…Hu-husband." Lagertha shows a bit of embarrassment as I quickly stand up cup her cheek and pull her into a fierce lip lock.

"No one gets my blood boiling quite like you, my wife." I mutter against Lagertha's lips as we move together to our armor racks and clothing helping each other get dressed and secure our armors.

Lagertha and I exit our Longhouse her first holding up her shield at the ready to catch arrows while mine is held loosely at my side on my left arm as I hold my sword in the other, ready to cut down any enemy that may already be in the village.

Looking around I see father standing on the wall holding his sword in the sky and commanding the archers to fire.

"Your father has the main gate secure, let's cover the port. I can see sails beyond that of our longships." Lagertha says to me and I silently agree with her as I follow her lead, and charge to the docks.

We arrive just in time to harry the first landing vessel as an enemy clan starts jumping from their longboat.

"Ironbloods." Lagertha snarls as she watches one run her spear through a boy no older than five who had been standing stock still watching as the enemies invaded our port.

'Why didn't Ayana…warn us?' I ask in my mind, feeling a sense of worry for my adoptive mother and…intimate care taker.

"HAAAAAA, YOU FILTHY BASTARDS WON'T TAKE OUR VILLAGE ! ! !" Lagthera shouts as she starts to charge ahead of me.

"Dammit Lagertha, stay together with me." I growl underneath my breath…even as I forgive my wife for recklessly charging at the clansmen responsible for her mother's death…as it had been a joint attack of an enemy tribe of native and an enemy clan that had killed her.

I make it just in time to block an arrow from taking Lagertha in the neck as she rams a spear she pulled out of the dead boy through the jugular of an attacker.

The world starts to narrow as Lagertha and I fend off a new rush of fresh men, everything becomes a blur of blocking and slashing, with intermittent instances of picking up a dryer handled weapon from an enemy corpse or of Lagertha and I pushing each other out of the way of an attack that would break bones to block.

"Ahh." I groan as I feel my side explode in fire as I miss parrying an enemy's sword by a centimeter and it stabs into my side near my abdomen.

"We're getting sloppy, we're too exhausted to keep going like this.' I mutter in my mind as Lagertha moves and caves the man head in with a mace she got from somewhere as the man was too busy smiling thinking he'd taken me down.

I pull Lagertha's behind out of the path of an arrow, since our shields have long since been discarded because the wood wasn't useful anymore for blocking with all of the arrows on them, I finally tap into the power of the talismans built into my armor and use telekinesis to snap the necks of the remaining enemies.

Lagertha looks at me with an arched eyebrow and a blood soaked face, her hair matted to her head completely read.

"What…we couldn't keep going on like this…even if the villagers will fear me more now than ever before I'd rather have them fear me than all either die or be turned into slaves." I shoot back at her look, feeling a bit defensive, which only makes Lagertha smirk at me, grab me by the back of my head and pull me into a passionate kiss.

"Stop holding back." Lagertha growls at me but not out of anger her chest is rising and falling rapidly her eyes burning with lust and desire, within seconds she's pressing me up against the wall of a hut and freeing my hard cock from my fur pants as she lifts up her leg making it easier to enter her leather skirt and get to her sex.

I bury myself inside her with one exhausted thrust feeling her molten tightness around my shaft making my exhaustion slip away as I spin us and press her against the wall.

"Yes yes fuck me." Lagertha groans as I my hips make loud smacking sounds as they impact her's.

It felt like ages but was only a few minutes till both of us reached our peaks only to find a nine year old Rebekah watching us with a blushing face and enraptured eyes.

"Bekah, what are you doing out here it's not safe…yet?" I growl at the little blonde girl that jumps in surprise as she finally notices that I'm looking at her.

"F-father…sent me to find you and goodsister, to make sure you were both okay brother." Rebekah replies to me as she tries to look anywhere but my face.

As Lagertha slowly slips away freeing my from inside her and then drops to her knees takes me into her mouth and starts giving me a sloppy blow job in front of Rebekah making me return to full stiffness.

'Oh, come on I can't be into having us be watched by a voyeur little girl.' I mentally groaned and cursed myself.

"Don't lie to me Bekah, tell me the truth…as I know father wouldn't send you out here until he has had the men verify all of the attackers are well and truly dead." I groan out as Lagertha milks another release from me as she takes me down her throat and gags around me, and I make a fist in her hair and pull her off of me.

"Enough, we have to make sure Bekah gets home safely." I command Lagertha who quickly transitions from lusty pleasing wife to serious protector in an instant when she snaps out of her lust, as I stare down at her.

"Ahh!" I hear Bakah scream and look to see one of the men I thought I'd killed earlier holding a knife to Bekah's throat.

"Let me go or I'll kill her witch spawn." The man snarled even as blood leaked from his wounds staining Bekah's dress.

"You'll let her go unharmed or else I'll heal you and spend a very long time slicing you up, healing you and repeating the process until I'm satisfied." I say calmly and coldy as I keep my eyes locked on Bekah's willing her to stay calm, as I reach out to my talismans in my armor finding them empty.

'Only choice I have left…he's a desperate man…a dying desperate man he might just take Bekah with him to spite me.' I say in my mind as I reach out with my abilities and call my sword to me, feeling the energy of over a hundred souls inside waiting to be used by me.

"Release her now, and I'll give you free safe passage from this place…don't and I'll make good on my earlier vow." I say this time as I drain a bit of power from my sword/battery to affect the temperature in the air turning down so much that frost starts to appear in the air.

"Hexen." The man curses but releases Bekah and I'm on him before either of us can process it as I bury my sword in his skull and take his soul.

"Brother?" Behak whispers in a whimper, and I whip around to face her and pull her into a crushing hug as she sobs against my chest.

"Shh, shh, it's okay my sweet little sister, big brother is here for you Always and Forever." I say comfortingly to her as she nuzzles her cheek against my armor and I become very aware that Lagertha hadn't had a chance to put little…not so little me away.

Luckily my wife walks over and hugs the little danger seeking girl from behind and puts my cock away for me looking into my eyes promising me more later as she gives my length a gentle squeeze.

Standing up with Bekah clinging to me tightly I wrap my arms around her protectively.

"Come on little one let's get you home." I whisper softly to Bekah who nods but looks up at me with fear in her eyes.

"I-I'm sorry brother..." Bekah apologizes to my and I tilt my head slightly and plant a kiss against her brow making her blush crimson.

"You should be, I'm very upset with you Rebekah...but I'd be even more upset if you weren't alive for me to be cross with. Promise me you won't do something so reckless again." I stay firm with Bekah even though I just wanted to snuggle her and make sure she knew that I loved her and was happy she way safe and unharmed physically anyways.

"I-I won't big brother... I'm sorry you've been wasting your time teaching me...I even peed when he grabbed me I'm not fit to be a Shieldmaiden like Goodsister Lagertha." Bekah whimpers in embarrassment but I don't care that she peed herself.

"Heh, are you kidding all brave and strong warriors peed themselves in their first battle even Lagertha...but don't tell her I told you that." I express and whisper to Bekah feeling a very heated glare on me from my side.

"Even me." I say to protect myself from my wife's ire as she can and will kick my ass.

"R-really even you big brother, but you're so strong and brave...and handsome like in the stories." Bekah gasped in surprise and disbelief.

"Mhmm, the first time this bear of a man charged at me when I was on my first raid with father and Lagertha...I wet myself like a newborn babe." I hummingly lied to Bekah making her eyes burn with a fire I hadn't seen before.

"Please keep training me big brother and Goodsister, I want to fight beside you both when I get bigger." Bekah asked us both and I could feel Lagertha's smile match my own.

"Heh, of course but only if you promise not to do something reckless again." I reply to Bekah who nods rapidly.

"I promise...I won't." Bekah vows with a very cute and serious expression on her face.

"Very well then...I will continue your training." I reply to Bekah, and she moves forward and presses her lips against mine and quickly pulls away before hiding her face against my shoulder.

'Did...did that just happen? Ahh, it's nothing to worry about she's just an innocent baby that saw and went through a lot today.' I ask in my head before reassuring myself that it was nothing.

Arriving at Mikael's Longhouse that is closer to mine than I actually liked because of Esther's presence.

Esther, Finn, Elijah, Klaus and Kol come rushing out of the house to see Bekah.

"What are you doing with her?" Esther venomously snarls at me.

"Mother, big brother Vidar saved me from an attacker after I snuck out to watch the battle." Bekah says while glaring angrily at her mother as she clenches the blood soaked fur pieces of my armor in her small hands.

Her words made Esther reel back like Mikael had just slapped her hard.

"Th-thank you Vidar." Esther nearly chokes on the words as a reluctant Rebekah allows herself to be taken away by Esther and squeezed in a hug as the woman starts to tear up.

"B-brother." Klaus stutters slightly as he looks at me with big hero worshiping eyes.

"Niklaus, how is your painting going and before you ask no, I will not take you on a raid, you're not quite ready yet…Elijah, Finn…I'm surprised you're both hiding in the house…Kol, how is your magic going?" I say quickly trying to get out of there, it wasn't that I didn't like my siblings but I was tired and there is still cleanup to do not to mention I have a very sexy very horny wife…that I want to be back inside of asap.

"Vidar, Lagertha I need you both over here!" I hear Mikael and give my younger siblings an apologetic smile as I turn around relieved as Lagertha threads her hand into mine.

"Father." I greet Mikael with a smile who smiles back at me but looks at the wound on my side concernedly.

"Son, Daughter…there is something I have to tell you that brings me great sadness…" Mikael says sadly his face looking pained as he looks me in the eyes, making my stomach drop.

'No…no no…' I start to panic in my mind as Mikael rests his hand on my shoulder.

"Son, it's Ayana…she took her own life last night…after officiating your and Lagertha's union…she left a letter, a grimoire and a few other things for you along with her hut." Mikael tells me and my knees go weak and Lagertha is the only thing holding me up as my eyes start to blur but I tamp down on my emotions as it wouldn't do good to show that side of me after a battle.

"Thank you…for telling me father." I reply to Mikael, my voice cracking as I stumble away towards home to see for myself.

"Mother?" I call out to find Ayana laying on the bed of furs that we shared for most of my life looking as though she's sleeping but there is no life force in her body.

I stumble over to the bed, fall down on the side of it and grab Ayana's cold hand.

"Why, why why?" I mutter over and over again, as I bring Ayana's hand up to my face.

I feel a phantom touch against my shoulder and turn to look behind me, finding Ayana standing there with a pained smile on her face before she pointed to a cup that was on the floor next below the table.

"Someone poisoned you…" I mutter as I turned back to look at her but she was gone and Lagertha starts to enter hut.

Grabbing my sword I start to chant a spell to exchange a soul for a soul.

"Animam inimicum pro victo offero pro carissimo mihi, Animam inimicum pro victo offero pro carissimo mihi, Animam inimicum pro victo offero pro carissimo mihi." I chant as I feel the spell take hold and feel energy leave my soul in the form of the latest enemy I slew in exchange for Ayana's I watched as her soul sank back into her body and she sat upright in bed taking a sharp intake of breath.

I move quickly, grabbing hold of Ayana as she trembles and shakes as if convulsing slowly. It stops and Ayana wraps her arms around me and holds me close.

"My sweet child, you have sacrificed a great amount of power to return my soul to my body and heal me…" Ayana whispers as she places her cheek against the top of my head.

"Who poisoned you?" I growl softly in question.

"I can't say…the future, your future depends on my silence, my love." Ayana replies back to me softly and I know exactly who did it.

'Esther…once you make us vampires…I'm going to take my vengeance from you before I let my sword feast on your soul.' I vow in my mind coldly.
