༺♰༻ She had travelled far and wide, through lands that reeked of iron and incense, where saints bled and sinners prayed. She had warred with angels and supped with devils, her blade wet with mercy and vengeance alike.

You only know that you are both burning and for once, neither of you minds. the last kingdom finan x oc season 2 - ??? smut warning

Years later when Earl Rangnar is killed, a devastated and enraged Signe joins Uhtred on his quest to reclaim his birthright and to kill the man who took their family from them. To kill her father, Kjartan *** - Eventual FemOC X Finan (but unbelievably slow burn - as in, we start in season 1 and he doesn't appear until season 2, sort of slow) - multiple love interests. (?) - I think I accidently made the Fem OC have an emotional affair with Alfred.
