"What about Bjorn?" Ivar asked. Immediately he felt that the eldest son of Ragnar is not going to accept the end of his reign so easily. Bjorn believed so blindly that he should be the one to keep Ragnar's legacy and that is why Ivar will never be able to rule in peace while Bjorn is still alive.
"Come, I don't want to worry Brynhildr about unnecessary things such as stupidity of our brother." Ivar said pulling Hvitserk away from others. They sat alone in the corner and Ivar took another sip of ale from his horn.
"He left Kiev about a year ago with his wives. Prince Igor didn't think that he should keep them as a prisoners. The word spread that he is in England now and that he went to King Alfred and asked him for help to take back Kattegat from Brynhildr. I don't know what are their plans and how big army do they have but England grew much stronger with King Alfred on the throne." Hvitserk said.
"So here we go. Another war. I was just thinking that the things were becoming too good and too happy to be truth." Ivar said.
"I congratulate you on your marriage and that you are going to become a father but we must prepare for this and keep Brynhildr safe now when she is with child." Hvitserk answered.
"Safe? Of course that she will ne safe! I don't want to her to feel any wrath of war anymore. She had enough of it. We will kill both Bjorn and King Alfred." Ivar said determined to keep his queen safe and their child as well.
Brynhildr stood in the dark corner, carefully listening to their conversation. Another war was coming, another conquer was coming at them and now she had so much more to lose then she ever had before.
"You don't understand Ivar. Alfred is smart and unpredictable. He is just like you!" Hvitserk said
"Nobody is like my husband." Brynhildr said as she emerged from the corner where she was standing.
Hvitserk looked at her and sighed.
"I guess I can't hide anything from my wife." Ivar said.
"Of course you can't. Who do you think I am? I am still a Queen. I deserve to know when my kingdom is in danger. And I don't think the war should be left only in the hands of man." Brynhildr said.
"Of course not..." Hvitserk said feeling almost ashamed from trying to hide anything from her.
"Now when we agreed to that fact, I want to find out as much as it is possible about Kingdom of England and about their king. I will also send word to King Igor to help us if it's necessary." Brynhildr said.
"Look at you. Already thinking about war tactics on your wedding night. I think we should be doing something else to make the night special..." Ivar said with a smirk on his face and Brynhildr's cheeks went pink instantly.
"How incredibly romantic you are." She said with sarcasm in her voice.
"I don't want to interrupt you, I simply wanted to warn you about the upcoming attacks. But as soon as the word about the fact that our Queen doesn't possess any more godlike abilities, they will probably come at us." Hvitserk said.
