Nova's POV

"Well" Alfred says as I sit on the wooden floor and play with Alfie

"What is it?" I smile at Alfred as he walks towards me like hot air in summer

"I want you to meet someone" Alfred winks, "come with me"

I direct Kitty, my maid-servant to take Alfie as I rise up and walk beside Alfred

I direct Kitty, my maid-servant to take Alfie as I rise up and walk beside Alfred

There is a sense of serenity around King Alfred. He is calm and collected, almost a phlegmatic personality.

We enter a big chamber where the walls smell like wood and oil, I see a few candlelights here and there. The primary source of warmth and light being the fireplace

I shiver, as the room is colder than any other ones in this palace

"Here , take this" Alfred wraps his long black cape around my white dress, the warmth of his heart lights up the whole room as I smile

"Wait here" Alfred pulls out a chair near the fireplace as I nod, he then disappears in the darkness

I watch the wood crackle in the fire. The way the flames dance while giving all of it's energy to the air. The way we give away love so easily.

"Nova?" A thin sweet voice says as I turn towards it's direction

I see a young blonde boy with deep blue eyes standing with Alfred. His body shakes as he looks at me, his expression seems ghostly

I take a minute a two to squeeze my eye balls and trace every inch of is face. And then it hits me..

"ERIC?" I yell unbelievably

"Nova, my sister" He rushes towards me 

And we hug each other till we cannot breathe.

Narrator's POV

"WHERE IS SHE?" Ivar storms into Jezebel chamber

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Jezebel jumps up in absolute shock

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Jezebel jumps up in absolute shock

Ubbe crosses his arms and stands behind Ivar with a cocky expression

"I ASKED, WHERE IS SHE?" Ivar walks towards Jezebel in pure wrath

"GUARDS! GUARDS!" Jezebel screams, Ivar swiftly put his hand on her mouth with one hand and chokes her neck with the other as Ubbe surveys the room

"I SWEAR I WILL FUCKING KILL YOU IF YOU SCREAM" Ivar's eyes become bloodshot as the veins in his biceps rises

Jezebel resists till she sweats and her neck becomes red

"IF I LET GO OF YOUR THROAT AND MOUTH, YOU WILL ONLY REPLY WHAT I ASK. UNDERSTOOD!" Ivar warns as his voice sends chill down Jezebel's spine

"Now SPEAK" Ivar opens her mouth

Jezebels' wheezes for air and coughs a little

"Where...is...she?" Ivar punches the wall 

"Far away from you" Jezebel bends down to gasp for more air

Ivar charges towards Jezebel and wraps his hand around her hair, He pushes her back towards the window as the glass shatters and pierces her neck

Blood start dripping from the back of her head

"Don't test me" Ivar warns

"Eng...England" Jezebel cries

"England?" Ivar let's go for his grip

"She has gone to see King Alfred" Jezebel holds back her tears as Ivar's grip leaves red marks around her pale skin

"Alfred? What has he have to do with Nova?" Ubbe emerges and looks at Ivar, who is as baffled as ever 

"I don't know" Jezebel cries

"You lying cunt" Ivar raises his head and stares right into Jezebel's eyes

"You lying cunt" Ivar raises his head and stares right into Jezebel's eyes

"Trust me, that is all I know" Jezebel falls to the ground 

"MY HANDS ACHE TO KILL YOU, YOU BITCH" Ivar takes out his knife again and pounces on Jezebel

"Stop it Ivar, don't kill her" Ubbe jumps in between and wrap his arms around Ivar and pulls him back

"Lying Cunt..." Ivar mutters

"She is not here. Let it go" Ubbe says to Ivar

He drags Ivar to the bed as Jezebel cries on the floor

"She is in England" Ubbe calms Ivar down

"I want her, I want to see her" Ivar repeats like a maniac

"She is in England" Ubbe says

"Then we'll go to England" Ivar replies with his bloodshot eyes, "Today". Ubbe nods as he cannot potentially set himself up to receive Ivar's wrath in this fragile situation

Ivar dust himself off and gives a look of death to Jezebel

"Come on now" Ubbe says as Ivar follows him outside

"Let's go brother, let's get her" Ivar smiles as he looks at Ubbe, his anger almost dissipating in the thin air

All he can think of is how to be near her
