Bab 36: [35]
"Where to start?" I hum to myself as I feel Izzy cross her arms underneath her breasts and glare at me before her eyes drift down, and she snatches her Steele from me.
"The beginning." Izzy says to me with a bit of mystified wonder in her voice as she grabs my hand that was holding her Steele, in her free hand, her soft fingers running over my calloused hand flesh. "You must have Angel blood in you…" Izzy whispers to herself but I hear it clear as day.
'Well yeah I just drank some.' I express in my head while slightly rolling my eyes, but not quite processing her statement at face value.
"From the beginning, huh." I sigh softly.
"Well, let's see I was born in 972 AD, in what would become Georgia to Mikael and Esther…Esther was a witch…from a powerful witch bloodline…she could have been powerful too…when I was born…I was fully conscious…I could feel and see everything in perfect detail…" I say and look to Izzy who looks a little shy as she releases my hand.
"Isn't that impossible…babies shouldn't develop the ability to see at least 6 weeks after birth." Izzy states curiously.
"...I don't really know or care…I was born a freak…I told you how my mother was a witch. So am I but…instead of having my own magic I absorb other witch's magic and magical beings' magic…my birth mother hated me from the moment she found out I was an abomination…going so far as to tell my father Mikael to drown me for she wouldn't touch or care for me." I tell Izzy and hear her gasp in shock and disgust.
"That's awful…even my mother isn't that cruel and she's a bitch." Izzy says softly as she reaches out and grabs my hand, making me feel strange…almost guilty.
I find myself laughing a real laugh for the first time in a very long time.
"Get on with the story, it's just getting interesting." Izzy says to me as Gar walks over to Izzy and faces her and then lays down and rests his big furry head on her legs.
"He likes you…he only ever liked…me..and Lagertha." I mutter my voice breaking a bit as I say Lagertha's name that I have avoided using…for so long.
"I like him too, he's cute…and he doesn't call me fat." Izzy replies with genuine warmth in her voice while giving me a sour look, which I turn away from her gaze feeling uncomfortable, as Izzy is beautiful and curvy in all the right ways…
"I didn't call you fat…I said you were heavy when you were laying on top of me with a sword through my chest, you're gorgeous…and your figure is very comely." I mutter softly, probably low enough that Izzy can't even hear me.
"Comely means beautiful and attractive." I say as an afterthought.

'Ahh, why does being complimented by him after he insulted me feel so good?' I ask myself as I feel myself blushing and my core heating up.

"So my father Mikael…big tough Viking warrior man, smacks my mother across the face for suggesting to kill me and then takes care of me…milks lambs and feeds me through a leather bladder, but eventually being a viking warrior chief Mikael had to start going on raids again…not trusting Esther with my life Father left me with a close family friend named Ayana another witch that treated me as a person rather than an abomination." I continue speaking.
"Sounds like a good dad…I get along better with my dad then mother too." Izzy mutters to herself.
"My relationship with Ayana…grew a little twisted…she groomed me to be her lover…because she couldn't have my father…by the time I was 11 I was educated on giving a woman pleasure…" I continue and find a look of disgusted intrigue and arousal on Izzy's face.
"Ayana was beautiful…loving and warm…she taught me many things…she taught me magic and how to use and control my gift." I continue to say trying to make an excuse for Ayana but over time I had come to see how twisted our relationship really was.

'She took advantage of you…used you for what you could give her.' I snarl in my head as memories of a certain old teacher that tried to take advantage of me flashes in my mind, and Gar gently licks my hand pulling me out of my darker thoughts.

"I have a few siblings, five brothers, two sisters one being my twin sister…Freya…Freya and I have a special connection, we can feel each other's hearts beating in each other's chests. We share sensations…" I say and get ready for Izzy to ask me the question that was on her lips.
"S-so can you feel when she has her period? Or do you feel pleasure from each other when you're having sex?" Izzy asks her voice, getting a bit of business to it.
"Haa, I feel a bit of tightness in my abdomen…when she's cycling…and…Freya is still a virgin…it's very complicated…but Freya has mentioned that if…my feelings are very intense and sharp she can feel them…usually the transference is of pain and injuries…" I reply to Izzy and bring my hand up to the slit in my chest over my heart..that is still slowly oozing blood.
"I really hope this isn't hurting her right now…if she was dead…I'd be dead though…but since I'm immortal she shouldn't be able to die…I don't know our bond is complicated and I don't fully understand it." I reply to Izzy who looks at me in worry.
'Fuck…I…I, was trying to die…while not giving any thought of Freya…I know she said if that's our fate…but how could I do that to her.' I mutter questioningly in my mind.
"Vidar…are you okay?' Izzy asks me softly.
"I-I turned into a monster…Lagertha and I…we were best friends since we were children…I forced this immortality on her, she was happy for the first few hundred years but as the times of warriors came to an end and boys…children with muskets replaced warriors…she lost her love for life without battles of skill to be fought…no that's a lie…she lost her love of life when she found out we couldn't be killed by normal means anymore…but she stayed by my side out of her love for me.
I forced her to suffer through hundreds of years…before finally granting her what she wanted." I mutter as my head dips only for Izzy to smack my cheek, and make me turn to look at her my lips raising in a snarl to show off my fangs but Izzy's glare and her arms crossed over her chest…remind of the way Lagertha would look at me when I was being exceptionally stupid.
"Look, I don't know this Lagertha very well…Or-or you…but I doubt that if Lagertha was anything like me she wouldn't have stayed with you for centuries if she didn't want to…so stop beating yourself up, say goodbye and move on, because that is what I-I mean what she would want you to do!" Izzy grows very passionate and pretty much yells at me and I feel myself start to cry and then Izzy is hugging me. She smells so good and feels so warm I feel my arms encircling her as I cry…really cry like I should have done a long time ago.

'Oh for heavens sake, I made him cry, I don't know what happened between him and Lagertha…but it must have been pretty bad…if he sees himself as a monster…sure he attacked me like an animal but he was starving to death…just the little bit of blood he drank from me made his body fill out and return to normal.' I say in my head as I hug Vidar and start rubbing his back feeling his strong back muscles against his taught scared skin that feels soft and smooth.
'Why does my heart hurt seeing him in so much pain? By the angel we just met today.' I express after finishing my first round of thoughts.

"Now get back to telling me your story." Izzy says to me as I reach up and wipe away the remaining moisture around my eyes.
"Alright." I find myself smiling softly in a way I only ever did with Freya and Lagertha.
~ — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — ~
'That smile…' I feel myself do a mental gasp at Vidar's handsome smile…as my heart starts to beat faster.
