Nova's POV

"Have you told Ivar yet?" Jezebel's blue eyes nearly pops out of her sockets as she looks at me while holding my right arm, squeezing it in sheer excitement

"Not yet" I blush, Imagining his happiness and excitement when he finds out that I am pregnant with his child

The child of God, The child of Ivar.

"Go!!! Tell him!!!" Jezebel shoos me away and pushes me towards the thorne room

"I am anxious, so anxious" I mutter but Jezebel ignores my protests and pushes me on

I take a few deep breaths in and with my new found courage and pangs of excitement I enter the throne room to tell Ivar the news that would change our lives

*Nova enters the throne room*

Narrator's POV

Nova enters the throne room excitedly but the mood of the room is dim as Ivar buries his head in his hand. The room is quite as Ivar sits on the throne flanked by Hvitserk and Floki.

No one else is to be seen in the room

"Why is it so quite here?" Nova giggles and walk towards Ivar but her humour has not been returned back to her

"Not Now" Ivar commands Nova as he doesn't look up

"What? Why? I have something to tell you" Nova stops and looks around

"Now is not the time" Floki says calmly

"But, I have something to tell Ivar, in private" Nova says and looks at Ivar, "Ivar?" Nova speaks slowly

"NOT NOW!" Ivar screams as his voices echos in the room, sending a chill down Nova's spine

"Iv..Ivar?" Nova shakes as tears start streaming down her eyes

"We leave now! NOW!" Ivar howls as Hvitserk and Floki look at him in surprise

"Now?" Hvitserk asks

"YES! RIGHT NOW!" Ivar screams as he gets up

"Leave for where?" Nova asks Ivar as he exits the throne room, Nova follows him around like a puppy

"Kattegat" Ivar mutters

"Right now? I haven't finished packing my belongings yet!" Nova says as she pants

"You are not coming" Ivar says in anger

Nova stops and looks at him in bafflement

"What do mean?" Nova ask as Ivar fumes and looks at her

"Lagertha killed my mother. SHE KILLED MY MOTHER NOVA. ASLAUG! MY MOTHER. AND I, NOT EVEN FOR A SECOND WILL WAIT HERE AND WATCH HER DESTROY KATTEGAT. YOU UNDERSTAND? SO GET OUT OF MY WAY" Ivar screeches as he darts his bloodshot eyes into Nova's
