Chapter 7 Voyager

  • His dark hair on his chest wasn't as thick as she thought, though his ruggedness and how he held her was making her, more than one way very moist in places even as she felt him pleasuring her with his lips, while he was using his fingers fondled her in places, she had never allowed anyone else to get this close. She had never been touched like this for he would be her first. His hands gripping her hips for he was enjoying her sweetness as she drizzled he held her thighs down and apart. He enjoyed hearing her squeals as her body trembled from all the rush of excitement that flooded through, unable to keep herself contained, but he was relentless just as he was hunting her down and just as driven to make her scream but she could only grip the hay for it wasn't enough. Baldr was so spellbound wouldn't stop for he wanted her to scream though no one would be able to hear them, he was unwavering as she squirmed and wiggle in his grasp. Finally, after she failed attempt at holding back, she gasped before she screamed, gushing uncontrollably. He didn't wait for her to stop or for her to take a breath, he began to penetrate her and she arched her back, which allowed him to go deeper inside of her. The attraction between them had been ignited and like a wild animal, she was in a frenzy feeling her nails digging deep into his beefy flesh. She gasped for air and thought he was blessed with a very meaty cock that had her moaning that was letting him know that he was satisfying her as more of her nectar gushed onto his cock. His hips rotated very slowly and sensually that was making her jolt as every nerve ending enflamed her body. With every thrust that deepened into her while her breasts pressed against his chest, his long black hair swept against her flesh as she clung to his body and he picked up his pace, driving his member into her depths. His lips pressed against her neck as she heard him speak in a low thick voice and though she didn't understand what he was saying, his fingers caressed her cheek, and then she kissed his fingers. He slowed down his pace when he moved her onto his lap, when her legs wrapped around his waist, finding herself against the wall of the stable and holding her hands above her head. He was an animal and though she lacked experience, yes at first she felt the pain considering she was brand new. He wasn't ruthless where she felt trash which was her worst fear was that here she would be treated like she was property. He, however, didn't treat her like the trash she gripped his hand which was larger than the average man's. He was very much like a bear, though one of his hands could cover both her hands, with his other hand he embraced her making love to her was a different experience for him. The other times were never about emotions or about having babies, it was more about fulfilling a need. At the moment, he had forgotten everything except concentrating on her as he continued to penetrate her and not just her depths. Her lips were on his when he felt her tongue flicking against his, he released her hands so that he could lower them back down. While in his lap she was rocking her body against his, back and forth. Their bodies were wet from the sweat that glistened though it wasn't humid outside, however, the heat between them could have set the hay and stable ablaze, but it was only their bodies until he regain his dominance over her and no longer was taking his time until his body shuddered as a rush of intense pleasure was released through his jizz inside of her. Her chest rose and fell, trying to catch her breath as he lay next to her, on his back he too was dried mouth and needed water. His horse who was drinking from his trough was pushed back some so that Baldr could have a drink and he splashed water on himself wanting to cool off. He finally came back over to her, her eyes were watching him, and she didn't know what to expect. He however ran his fingers through her hair and then smelled the fragrance that he couldn't get enough of. She didn't know what his plans were but she couldn't help but study his features. His eyes were darkened green, like the deepest green she had ever seen. His hair was thick and black but she saw a few strands that were tinted red.

  • His skin was creamy white, not pale or sickly looking, but like the sand on a clear day. He didn't look like a man in his thirties but she knew men during this era worked harder than those from her world. She assumed he was twenty-seven or twenty-eight, his hand cupping her face while his thumb rubbed her lips. They said nothing to each other, though she didn't understand his language and he didn't know her either. However, there was no need for words at the moment, he lay next to her resting on his side and propping his head with his left hand. He was now seeing her in a whole new light, he saw her scars and markings on her body, she had a tattoo before she had left the military. It was the North Star and with it a compass. He touched the tattoo, he knew that tribes would mark their warriors but he had never seen this tribal marking before which made her look to see what he was looking at. She realized her tattoo must seem odd and because there was a language barrier between them she used what she had to let him know she had gotten this when she traveled over several foreign lands by the ocean. He wasn't surprised she preferred to travel by water, it seem she was always near the water. Her dark red hair fell over her face, now she remembered why she didn't want to get too near someone because she accepted the fact that she was an outsider no matter where she went. She felt no matter where she went that she would always be the one who stood alone. She was looking downward while her hair covered her eyes and he couldn't see her expression, not thinking twice he moved her hair out of her face so that he could see her eyes. Though she wasn't crying, he could see the sadness he wondered if her tribal marking had something to do with her being here after all. She pulled her cloak over her nakedness though he was putting on his clothes. Once he was done getting dressed now she felt like it was all a one-night stand. However he held up his hand and then left unsure of what he was up to but wherever he went, he wasn't gone very long. He tossed her some clothes that were more fitting for this type of weather that she had in her pack. While she dressed her put the gear on his horse, he decided to take her to the hot springs, where she could relax and get cleaned off. She finished getting dressed then put her cloak over her shoulders then put up her gear in her pack. The clothes were black with grey and smoky brown, though however, the clothes were somewhat baggy on her, they were warm. Baldr got up on his steed and then lowered his hand down, helping her up to sit in front of him. He guided his horse in the direction of where the hot springs were located then nudged his horse to go. Though dawn was around the corner, she saw the clouds changing as the stars had left, but it was a beautiful start to the day, not to mention her morning exercise with Baldr.
  • He climbed down from his mount and then led the rest of the way by foot, which wasn't that far. He tied his horse to the tree, Baldr went back to help her down but she had already jumped off and was standing right in front of him. A few strands of her hair covered her right eye, he brushed them aside so that he could kiss her once more and then led the way down to where she saw the hot springs which went for miles, for there were many spots of hot water, something she had longed for, for such a long time. Baldr took off his clothes, but she had already stripped down faster than imagined. Elvinia grabbed her bar of soap and shampoo, then hurried to the water not even testing the water when she jumped in. Elvinia emerged from the water, redness from the heat of the water but she love it. Her hair was soaking wet and she began using the shampoo bar that she had taken which would last longer than the bottle, plus she didn't want to bring plastic on this venture. The other soap she used to clean herself off, though there was no scent because she knew scents would give her away. However, her shampoo bar did have a little scent, peaches, and cream which she enjoyed in the summer. The water was fairly deep, she could barely touch the bottom of the pool. She started diving underwater again, though Baldr had made his way to the water where he just sat back and relaxed. She on the other hand was swimming, she had always loved the water which had given her an outlet whenever she felt out of place. The morning sun was finally out and he watched the sun's light touching Elvinia's hair which now looked like it was on fire, giving her winter eyes more of an exotic look. She walked over to him once she found her footing and though she was naked the light made her alluring till she sat down next to him. She didn't know how to say thank you in his language. though. She looked at him before turning away for the wildlife here was fascinating that she was happy that she did take the chance to come here. She felt him pulling her closer to him and when she climbed into his lap. She straddled his thighs, she knew he wanted more of what he had earlier, just as she was craving more of what they shared.
  • *******PAGE BREAK*********
  • When the dancer left Baldr's room she was upset because she was hoping that he would want her as his bride for there was a decree that the sons of Ingemar had but a few months to choose a bride or the chieftain would choose them. On her way back to her room she had seen him already dressed and heading out. She decided to follow knowing it wasn't a good idea but she had to know if he was just using her and if there was someone else. She waited for the old woman to walk away before slipping passed everyone to follow Baldr who was already out the door. She watched as he walked towards the stable, though it was too early for him to go patrolling she ventured closer till she saw the strange woman asleep in the hay. the girl knew then that it wasn't she that he wanted, but the female voyager, who had fought alone and saved the merchant's family. She couldn't understand what he saw in this woman, but whatever it was the girl knew that the chieftain would not approve. She left the stable because she had seen enough and went back to her room, where all the dancers and concubines stayed. The young girl was told by the others that they were for entertainment or for breeding heirs for their chieftain or for whichever son took the throne. They wouldn't stand for the voyager to be part of his line, so she knew later what she had to do. Because there was no way in hell, she was going to be another man's entertainment or a chieftain's concubine. If Baldr wanted to use someone, he shouldn't have taken advantage of her, though he didn't lead her on, that was her fault for believing that maybe there was a chance. she was dressed for bed and soon it would be time to wake up and do her chores.
  • Her mother was brought here as a slave many years ago though she wasn't one of the chieftain's children, even those born from concubines were treated better than the children of slaves were. She was groomed to be a dancer and taught how to please a man once she had become of age, and even though she was given a room here in the long house, she knew her place was temporary because once she lost her looks, then she would be of no use not even as a concubine. Those who were concubines stayed until they could no longer birth a child, and then they either became servants or worked the fields. she wanted a family, something that her mother denied the dancing girl never knew her father and her mother, who has now passed away mere months ago, residing beneath dirt and rocks. The girl's name was named Lydia, and one of the few bastards that lived in the village. This was her taking control for once in her life and if this didn't work then she was going to leave this village and never look back. she would find a way if need be. When the rooster crowed first thing and the sun was peaking through the clouds that were when Lydia quickly cleaned up and dressed before she left her room. She was to help make the bread and then milk the cows, but first, she needed to speak with the Thane who would inform the chieftain of what she had learned. she didn't have much time being that she had a lot to do today, plus she wanted to get this done before Baldr saw that she was going to snitch about his affair with the female voyager. She had been in these lands far longer than the newcomer, and it was an insult that the newcomer would have a chance to be with Baldr when he had choices of the women here in the Hold. What made the newcomer so special, she could fight then why not let her join their army? Lydia finished up and hurried inside the great hall and there was the chieftain's Thane, who was preparing for his day. He was going over the plans with the guards and was about to head back to the private room where discussion of power and war and other business matter about the Hold and the villages surrounding the Hold. They hadn't heard from the other Holds that normally made arrangements to come here. The Thane needed to know how many of the villages remained and what they needed to do to fix the problems when his thoughts were interrupted by the young dancer who was also a kitchen servant.
  • "Lydia, what do you need?"
  • "To speak to you alone."
  • He liked this young girl, she was young and had an enchanting aurora around her that enticed him so, but he had things to do this morning that was urgent. "Can this wait?"
  • "No my lord, this is important."
  • He nodded and opened the door to his room, his niece and nephew stayed in another room, so now Lydia and he could have some privacy.
  • "Speak Lydia, what is wrong?"
  • "Baldr is having relations with the female voyager, our chieftain wouldn't approve of it."
  • "Jealousy is an ugly color for you, why do you care what he does or doesn't do?"
  • She opened her mouth then closed it, turning her back to him, "I shouldn't. To him and everyone else here, I am a daughter of a slave a dancer and to others a whore. the chieftain had a decree for his sons to choose a wife within so many months, and already two months have passed and not one female has been chosen. I thought last night he had chosen me but I was a fool." It was then she turned around, "I don't want to be a dancer or a servant forever, and I sure as hell don't want to be a concubine then when I have no more use to be put out to work the fields until I die. I want to be a wife and mother, not some entertainment for every man just as my mother was. I want to be more."
  • "Scorned because Baldr choose another, an outsider. So I tell the chieftain what do you want, just be a wife and mother? Baldr won't look at you for turning his affair to his father. Is it Baldr that you want and only him, or would you consider another?"
  • The Thane wasn't an old man, not like the chieftain's age. The Thane wasn't much older than Baldr, only by ten years. She crept closer to him though she had chores to do and if she didn't get to them soon, she would get into trouble. Despite that, she was
  • .0with Thane and being on his side, he wouldn't allow them to punish her so she knew how to play her cards. She unclipped her dress, letting it fall to the ground exposing her body to him, this was her playing her cards right by ratting out Baldr and the newcomer's affair then committing herself to the Thane so that she no longer would be a playmate to others, but being one man's wife and one day the mother of his children.
  • "Baldr had his chance, and I want you to set me free of this life and let me be yours forever."
  • He didn't push her away and neither was he in such a rush any longer, to be honest, he had always wanted her but to be fair, he had never approached the issue, either. His clothes didn't stay on much longer for he had wanted her for far too long. He didn't want to waste any time, and as they fell on his bed, he took control. He was thrusting hard into her, penetrating her depths. Lydia felt his hands and mouth roaming her body, if this meant she was no longer passed around, then she accepted whatever he was doing just as long as he was willing to make her his.
  • *******PAGE BREAK*********
  • Beadu was brushing her hair before starting her day with Elsa. She looked at herself once more before heading out of her room down to the hall where breakfast would be served and where Elsa said she would be waiting. Beadu was grateful that Elsa wasn't getting married right away because the girl was close to her age and it helped pass the time whenever she thought about home. Her baby brother was now alone with their parents, and one day he would be chieftain of their Hold. Elsa would be marrying the chieftain's son from the North, Adalwolf though she told BEadu that she wasn't very fond of Adalwolf for he reminded her too much of her father, but it was settled that the alliance between the two Holds would come together and thrive. Beadu walked with grace and tried to appear like she had confidence and was nothing less than elegance. Though the men here were more like savages at times, she like any other chieftain's daughter and now wife had to emulate perfection. Elsa drank her milk watching for Baldr because he had slept with the dancing girl named Lydia, though she left when her father and his bride left, she saw how the newcomer had looked for the woman ate alone and Elsa felt bad for her and decided today at some point she was going to teach the newcomer their language. though reading was for scholars, her mother had taught her but told her never to reveal how smart she was. She kept her mother's books hidden underneath her bed, in the loose floorboard. However, she watched as Lydia walked out of Thane's room and caught up with the chieftain. She knew Beadu was still in her room, probably just waking up because Elsa had been up for a while. Her brother had never come out of his room, one of the servants told her that Baldr wasn't in his room. About twenty minutes later, she saw her father and his guards storming out of the hall and the Thane didn't see Elsa who was sitting quietly. The Thane had nodded towards Lydia and kissed her, Elsa overheard them talk about the chieftain approving their marriage for tonight. The Thane didn't want to wait another moment, so now Lydia was no longer part of the men's entertainment but the wife of the Thane. They turned to see Elsa watching them and quickly they went in different directions. Though Elsa didn't know what made her father angry, these days it could be a fly farting passed his nose that sent him into a rage. The servants brought out her food and another wooden cup of milk, she was here waiting until she saw Beadu walking down the hall to where Elsa was, who was enjoying the honey bread with freshly made butter. Elsa was to show her father's bride, Beadu, the villages that were outside the Hold. Beadu had already seen most of the Hold, however, there was more to see not to mention the temples within the Hold. There was one more day of celebration for their marriage, and though it was supposed to go on for a week with recent attacks, the celebration had to end earlier. Beadu had learned where most of everything was during the first two days after her wedding night. Then with the wayfarer woman appeared to be well-fed, but she was very mysterious. She wished she was the one who held Baldr's fancy. However, that ship had passed. Elsa explained that today she was taking Beadu to the rest of the Hold that she didn't already see, and from there, she was going to see the people of this village and learn their ways. Elsa was already eating her loaf of bread when she signal to the servants to bring out the salted pork, and more fresh milk for her father's new bride, who had just taken her seat.
  • "What upsets my father?"
  • "I don't know, I had just awakened when I heard the Thane talking to your father in hush voices then your father raised his voice and spoke in another tongue. Maybe another attack elsewhere, I don't know."
  • "We should head out soon though, I don't want us stuck in the middle of nowhere when night comes. Tomorrow, whatever we don't do today, we will finish."
  • "How big is this Hold?"
  • "My father's grandfather had the Eastern part where the ocean meets the fresh water, and his grandmother was the daughter of the Chieftain whose Hold was not too far from here, where the village no longer exists but the buildings remain standing. When they married this became the bridge for both Holds. There are over twelve villages, or at least there were twelve villages before all the attacks. Our merchants have three ways of bringing in supplies, two by sea and one by land. Father's fleet is one of the strongest, but it's our position here that we are known for. If those who attack us by the West, they have to go through the mountains which are known to have their dangers there. We also have the rocks and the bluffs that if the lighthouse's fire goes out it means certain death by the ocean. The freshwater source is if in case there is an attack we go underground and there is a cave that we come out of to get to my father's Castle. Father would be the one who will take you to the hideouts and secret passages, I am just to show you each of the villages and make sure you understand your duties before I am to leave for the North."
  • "When are you to marry?"
  • *******PAGE BREAK*********
  • "By next spring, Adalwolf and others are coming here in a few months for arrangements, but I won't leave until the first of spring."
  • "That isn't too far away."
  • "I know. Adalwolf's father is very sick and he is waiting to become the chieftain, however, if father had his way, I would have already been married, and away from here."
  • "I am afraid that I won't be a good wife to Ingemar. He is legendary to our people, including his battles that are well known. My father couldn't afford a war with your father, which was why the arrangement was made but intended to be Baldr's. I guess no one suspected your mother to die, she was a good woman."
  • "Thank you. My mother was a quiet woman, but she had her strength too. She was older than my father, she was his brother's wife and when he died, my father took her as his. Baldr is my father's nephew, not son, but Baldr calls my father, father too."
  • "Viggo your full or half brother?"
  • "He is my full brother. Baldr is the rightful heir to this hold however as an arrangement for not killing Baldr, my mother agreed that Baldr would not regain his throne. Though Baldr is trained to be a chieftain, my father won't let Baldr take over. However, my father has plans for Baldr so that his brother's legacy would remain strong."
  • "Is he already arranged to marry soon?"
  • Elsa heard the tone in Beadu's voice for Elsa knew that Beadu had a yen for Baldr, and Elsa couldn't blame her or the other women. Her brother was much like a bear, though many craved him, he refused to settle down. Viggo was too much of a sportsman amongst the women. She knew wherever Baldr went, Viggo wasn't that far behind. Her father would want a new line that would take his place as chieftain. She hated her father for not allowing Baldr his right to rule, but she also knew that Baldr didn't want to be here, he had many times told her that he wanted to go back to the seas only because of her did he stay. He had told her once she married, he would go back on the ships. And even though he knew that his place was on the throne, he knew that Ingemar wouldn't give up his throne that easily and Baldr wasn't going to let others die because of a power struggle.
  • "Not that I am aware of. He has till I get married to decide who will take as a bride, or else my father chooses for both Baldr and Viggo."
  • "What do you think about the female newcomer?"
  • Elsa had to be careful because had yet to trust Beadu. Though they had known each other as little girls, Elsa also knew that not everyone was to be trusted. she suspected her father killed her mother so that he could have Beadu as his new wife. She remembered Baldr once told her that his father's death wasn't an accident and that there was a rumor going around that Ingemar had something to do with it, but no one talked about it that was there when the conflict happened.
  • "I think she is much more important and I think my father is afraid of her. I had seen her fight and how she handles herself, wherever she is from had taught her well. Why?"
  • "I just think your brother has taken a liking to her, even though his father wouldn't allow the union between them."
  • "Sadly, Baldr doesn't back down when he wants something, he doesn't let up. Ever since she came here everyone seems to be put off by her like she doesn't belong anywhere. I think once she learns our ways, we will get to know her a lot better."
  • "So you trust her?"
  • "The two children that are related to the Thane, their father is related to us, a distant relative of course. They respect her and she doesn't appear to be an enemy. The way she fought out there outside the Hold's walls, she could have killed the warriors here when she had the chance. Instead, she didn't. When she was freed, she could have kept running instead she turned around and protected the merchant's family. My mother use to tell me stories of these war maidens, they were blessed by the gods to fight. So yes, I think and believe she is trustworthy. I don't believe these attacks are just coming out of nowhere, but she is here by no accident. The gods only know why, but I think she is here to restore order and balance."
  • "So you believe she was sent here to help us and not take the throne?"
  • "Why are you so curious about her, Beadu?"
  • "I guess in a way, I am jealous of her. She can come and go as she pleases and isn't held by order and command. You and I cannot marry who we want, we are pawns to gain power for our fathers and husbands. Here, she is free to live how she chooses and we don't have that luxury."
  • "Well, we need to hurry up before the day gets away from us and..." Elsa saw her brother Viggo coming back inside, he must have been on patrol with the others, checking out the encampments.
