The Midgard Serpent (Halfdan the Black x OC)

Chapter 19

I use to love the water. Sailing in the ocean, with only the sky and the stars guiding me. But now, it feels as if i am being pushed around. Other ship's waves are hitting me from every angle. As i close my eyes, it's as if i can see Bjorn and Halfdan sailing in the opposite direction as me. Good. I can not face Halfdan anytime soon. I am a wreck, confused on what my emotions are telling me and also i am starving. 

Harald on the other hand. I want to kill him. I want to take all my anger out on him. Chop off his head and feed it to the dogs. By the time I am done with him, wou won't be able to tell what end is his head and which is his ass.

Harald should be traveling back from England. No doubt he wil stop by Kattegat to see if Egil actually accomplished what he said he would do, but mostly to see If I was dead. Oh Harald, you call yourself a man, and yet you run around fetching others things like a trained animal. 

As the days past, I finally make it to his homeland, and i am disgusted by it. Giant bones lay everywhere and the smell of rotten flesh fils my nose. People at the docks stop what they are doing and look towards my boat. My hood over my head concealing my face from them. As I get closer, two men pull my boat in and help me get out. A lady and a man stand on the edge with a sword on their side and a shield on their back. 

"Who are you and what are you doing here?", the lady asked. I pull off my hood, my brown hair falls out flowing in the wind. My black eyeshadow has smudged a lot, but i dint give a shit. 

"I am Alca Ulvardottir." The two of them grab their swords and their shields, getting in defense mode. Everyone has stepped back to the edge of the dock. "Alca Midgard Serpent is a myth to scare little children. Why do you come here claiming that to be your name?" Annoyed with the two of them i walk closer and they take steps backwards. Cowards.

"Because i wouldn't be living up to my own story if I didn't. I am here waiting for King Harald's return, will be lead me to the his throne, or will i have to find it myself?" They place their swords down , still very skeptical of me and I don't blame them. They push people out of the way, people starring at me wondering if I am who i say i am. The grand hall is differently better than the rest of place, but it reeks of men who just want to have sex. The two open the doors letting me walk in front of them. Everything is silent, as i walk straight to the throne. I touch the arm of the chair and walk around it. I then sit straight down, smirk appearing on my face looking out towards everyone. The woman comes closer to me, really angry now.

"You can not sit there! You are not our King!" I sigh, now slinging my legs over one arm of the chair and back against the other. "Oh trust me, I don't want to be Queen of this Damn nation. I didn't even want to be Queen of my own, but until Harald comes back i claim myself here, unless  you have something else to say."

None of the men speak, surprised i even made a stand against them. The lady didn't say anything else, but turned away, storming off. Now Harald, where are you? We have a lot to discuss.

Harald's POV

My brother left me for Bjorn Ironsides, my Nephew decided to stay with Ivar, and egil failed to get Kattegat and kill Alca. Now i am stuck in this prison and sure as Hell, I am getting out. Lagertha just denied being my queen and yet she still had sex with me. Woman keep getting crazier and crazier. I need a queen since mine is now dead. I will take something from Lagertha, since she has taken my freedom, Astrid.

While Astrid will be sweet revenge, i need something more. Someone more gruesome, someone who is fun messing with, and yet that person had to choose my brother over me, Alca. If possible , I will make you my Queen Alca, and yet titles don't matter to you at all. I loved you since i first saw you, hugging Bjorn Ironsides in the grand hall, but my brother said something first and the way he talked about you, was different from the way he talked about any other women, he truly loved you.
