Sven saw her charging in and slid Nadia to the side so she wouldn't get caught in the shockwave. He was expecting the usual blast of fury. When she reached him she tackled him. Immediately began crying, and holding him. Sven wasn't expecting this. She leaned into to kiss him. After she helped him up and had the biggest smile across her face.
"I was scared you weren't gonna wake up. I didn't even wanna leave you today, but I knew you wanted those harpies found. Has Astrid seen you yet? Also, who are these two?" Helga asked while turning to introduce herself.
"This is Kimi and that's Nadia. I finally spoke with chief Mikom and learned a lot of new things. We have a lot to talk about." Sven said.
Sven began to explain everything Mikom told him. Helga was trying to wrap her head around the destiny supposedly in store for Sven.
"Also Kimi here is gonna be joining us from now on. Mikom said she's tied to my fate." Sven said.
"Don't forget me," Nadia added while smiling at Helga.
"By the way what did I see you doing exactly when I showed up?" Helga asked while staring Sven down.
"We were just having some fun. I started it, and I may have used a little charm on him." Nadia said trying to give Sven some cover.
"That's not true Helga. I could've resisted, but I got caught up in it. I'm telling you this because I don't wanna lie to you." Sven said while expecting her to get angry.
"It's okay Sven. When you were recovering Astrid and I had a little talk anyway. We know you're a great guy. Not to mention the information about you being a child of Gaia has gone around. Lots of tera and gods look for a way to strengthen their bloodlines. So there are gonna be plenty of people seeking your attention. Fighting them all would be too much. So long as your happy, and I can be by your side that's enough for me." Helga said.
When Helga was in sorrow waiting for Sven to wake up. Astrid was there to comfort her. After a few days, Astrid and Helga had a few moments of intimacy together. Sven being unconscious brought them much closer together. Astrid knew it would make her a hypocrite to be mad about him being around other women after what they did together. Finally starting to give in more to her desires, and was now curious about bringing others into their arrangement.
"However any women to share our bed has to have my approval, and if they ever harm you it will cost them their life. I'm gonna go find Astrid, and update her." Helga said while giving Nadia, and Kimi an intense glare before leaving.
"What an interesting woman you have there. I don't mind sharing either so I feel like we're gonna get along together just fine." Nadia said with a smile on her face.
When she saw Kimi sitting there looking at Sven when he wasn't looking. She couldn't help but tease her friend.
"Be gentle with Kimi though, she hasn't been with a man before." Nadia teased as Kimi's face went red. Kimi ran off down the road.
"I think you upset her," Sven said.
"She's fine just a little teasing. We should go after her though. Well, you should. I have a few errands to run today, but I'll come to you again tonight." Nadia said before blowing him a kiss and leaving.
Sven waited for a few minutes to make sure she was gone and then went to go look for Kimi. When he was looking around he saw her heading into the forest. Sven went off to catch up to her. After walking for twenty minutes he finally caught up. Kimi was finally within shouting distance.
"Wait up!" Sven called out hoping she heard him.
She turned around to see it was Sven and decided to wait.
"What were you heading out here for?" Sven asked.
"I wanted to check on some friends of mine. Wanna join me?" Kimi asked while walking on into the woods.
"Yeah, I have plenty of time. I didn't know there were people out here though." Sven replied.
After walking for a little in silence. They came upon a den. As soon as they walked upon it two wolves came out. Sven was cautious because he never saw wolves this big, and one of them seemed to be pregnant so he was concerned they would be defensive. Kimi was relaxed so he waited to see what happened. They quickly ran up to her and seemed to be showing affection to her. Then they saw Sven and walked up cautiously to him. They started to sniff him, examine him, and even nip at his hands a little. His skin being dense it did nothing but tickle. After a while, they walked back up to Kimi. She reached into her bag, and it was full of jerky. After grabbing a handful she holds her hand out as the mother eats from her hand.
"So these are your friends. Do you come out here a lot?" Sven asked as he approached to reach out to the wolves.
"I've been coming out here ever since my mom died. When I was outside the village training with Mikom we came across a pup. After I tried to find its pack. What I found though was they had all been killed by hunters. So I took him in. Some of the villagers didn't the idea of it. When it was old enough to fend for itself I let it go out here. A few years later I was out looking for some herbs to make medicine. Then he found me. He had this one with him. I've come out here ever since. I'm usually not good at talking with people, except for Nadia but she likes to tease me. She also doesn't like being out here with them. I just love being out here cause it helps me think. Your the first person I brought here they don't growl at."Kimi said while smiling.
While she was talking about the wolves she was like a different person. Sven never heard her talk so much, and this was the first smile he saw from her. The two spent a few hours in the forest with the wolves as they wondered the area talking. The sun was starting to go down so they returned to the sanctuary.
"Do you have anything to eat?" Kimi asked while waking with Sven.
"No, I don't. I was so distracted about being out for a week that I didnt think about it." Sven replied
"If you go home I can bring food over," Kimi said before running off.
Sven wanted to reply, but she was too far away. So he walked home to wait for Kimi. When he got home Nadia was there waiting for him inside.
"Did you catch up to Kimi?" Nadia asked.
"Yeah, I did. We spent some time in the forest with her friends." Sven replied.
"I thought they would've chased you off for sure. Where did Kimi go?" She asked while walking up to greet Sven.
"She asked if I had food, and when I said no she ran off. She's coming back though." Sven replied as he sat down at the table.
"Kimi always makes the best food, but she always makes to much. She never cooked for a guy before though. It's obvious she likes you." Nadia said before coming to sit next to him.
