Kapitel 125: The Danger That Sleeps

Ulrik was distraught as he had just lost the most important person to him right after getting her; this left an emptiness in his heart that could not be described. 

He could do nothing as he returned home; he recalled something Lagertha had told him. If whoever took Garda was after him, there would be demands, and for that to happen, they would have to contact Ulrik.

Ulrik blamed himself; naturally, he thought about what would have happened if he had stayed home. He could still smell her in his home, her scent was prominent, and this made him realize how this stranger had become so important in his life.

Ulrik was not about to lose her and ordered Kattegat to be on lockdown. This was a strange decision considering Garda was no one important; her only importance was being his wife.

Liv allowed him to act as a de facto King despite her holding the real power, but she knew it was best if she let Vikings handle Viking problems.
