Author Note: If you have already read my story 'The Northman's Bride', this is the same story with no changes or edits. I have written a full length novel, book 3 in my Sons of the North series and have decided to use the title 'The Northman's Bride' for it. I apologize for any confusion. What would you do with only a few days left to live? Would you do throw your pride aside and dare to love? Aleksi has lived his life by the motto that woman were to be worshiped, not understood, much like religion. Now, one of the last two survivors on a plague ship, he has begun to wonder if he hasn't missed out on enjoying the comfort that a charming young wife might have brought him. Wounded in a recent battle, Commander Aleksi Ekstrom awakens on the Norrland ship to discover the priest's ward, a young French woman, locked below deck in a cabin of dead nuns, all other passengers and crew lay dead or dying of what looks like plague. Feeling fevered, yet unwilling to surrender her life just yet, Mimi has the forty-day ship quarantine to live her final days to the full. Her sole wish is to not die a virgin. Promised to the church since birth, she always knew she'd be a terrible nun, and so apparently had the evil priest that was selling her to a warlord in Estonia, where the ship had been heading before contracting the deadly plague. Anchored off the coast of Sweden, the quarantined plague ship is well supplied by Aleksi's grieving father and Jarl Magnus, who generously provides his loyal commander with anything requested, grateful to Aleksi for years of brave, loyal service to Tronscar. Aleksi and Mimi toss social restraints aside and speak openly and honestly, holding nothing back, both desiring to live out their final days with no regrets. But, if they survive the quarantine what then, will Aleksi return to his old life and will Mimi be returned to the warlord she was promised? **Adult content.**

"Wh-why did you stop the elevator?",I asked. He turned on his feet to face me again. "You were saying?" He asked completely ignoring my question. He took another step forward and I stepped back again and I bumped my back on the wall as I felt the cold mirror on my skin. "That you like him." He said. "I-I don- -", I stammered looking down as Christian brought his hand close to my face tugging a stray strand behind my ear. I tilted my face up to meet his blue orbs. He stepped more closer to me as our chests touched. I gulped down contemplating our short proximity. He then slid his fingers down my bare arm raising goosebumps on my skin. He leaned closer to me. "Does he have this effect on you?", He whispered as his cool minty breath fanned my cheek. My heart was throbbing against my chest so hard as if it'd come out uniting with his. There was a small smile playing on his lips making me feel that he was enjoying what was happening to me. With a quick movement he slipped his arm around my waist tugging me more into him. I dropped the files and my handbag and placed my hands on his big muscular chest. His face was mere centimetres away from mine. "Christian...", I whispered looking at his lips. "Tell me." He whispered in his deep velvety voice as he brought his other hand to my face, caressing my bottom lip with his thumb. I looked back into his ocean blue eyes to see him gaze at my lips with his dark, lustful eyes. He flipped a lock of hair away from my shoulder exposing it. He came closer and closer to me. _________________________ Reign Adams is a beautiful and bold woman who happens to be the CEO of Adams Hotels.
