Chapter 1 - Ch.1 Betrayal

{A/N: hey all this is my first time writing a book and id like your feedback even if its bad. im going to do my best to get better at writing as time goes on so Skol on to a new journey!}

Bjorn stood on spot looking across the hall towards a certain table. He made sure not to show any emotion on his face to make sure no one knew his thoughts. He watched as his supposed friend and his woman kissed without a care in the world. They probably thought he wouldn't have returned yet considering he had gone to quell a group of feral orcs that had been causing severe damage in the territory. 

Little did they know that Bjorn, the strongest man around had found and slaughtered every orc in a matter of seconds because he had a bad feeling. It just so happened that his gut instinct was proven right once again, betrayed. It had only been half an hour since he had left on his journey.

As Bjorn stood still and watched he heard the villagers and other warriors talking.

"Truly disgusting that she does this every time Bjorn leaves to handle something for the Jarl."

"I agree, cant she just be loyal to the damn man so he doesn't find out. It'd be disastrous if he found out that she was just using him to keep us all safe."

"Bah, you think she cares. She told the Jarl that she would do whatever she wanted because she believes Bjorn would kill anyone for her."

"Hah, no way. She really is one of the most cruel people I have ever met. Using poor Bjorn to threaten the Jarl while fucking the Jarls son behind his back. I swear we ha-," the villager abruptly shut his mouth as his eye landed on Bjorn's massive frame came into view from behind his friend.

"Hey finish what your-," Villager slap his hand over his friends mouth to make him shut up as he stood wide eyed with a terror stricken face. Bjorn was just standing there watching the foolish pair across the room as they were standing up to leave to the young lords room.

When both villagers saw Bjorn they slowly backed away towards the entrance of the hall knowing that Bjorn had heard everything.

As the foolish pair stood they both turned towards the hearth and just so happens to be where Bjorn was standing. The woman for her part did look a little scared but her faced changed quickly." Don't touch me bastard I told you that I would never betray Bjorn!" She exclaimed loudly and as fast as she could made to run towards Bjorn.

As she neared Bjorn she saw no change in emotion on his face and thought she had successfully fooled him. Little did she know he had seen and heard far to much.

Bjorn raised his hand as she neared and a small lightning bolt shot out of his palm and landed on the floor in front of the woman to stop her advance. His eyes glinted with something ominous as he looked from her to the young son of the Jarl.

"Bjorn you may not know it but he's been forcing himself on me since you left saying-" She was cut of as Bjorn shot another lightning bolt at the floor in front of her. He then looked back towards the young man he thought was his friend and asked a simple question.

"Why?"

For a moment the young man didn't know what to say then as if building himself up stepped forward with his chest puffed out in pride.

"Because I am the son of the Jarl, if I want to be with her and she wants me what can you do about it. YOU CANT DO ANYTHING TO ME OR HER, I'LL JUST HAVE MY FATHER SEND ALL OF HIS WARRIORS TO KILL YOU HAHAHA!" The man had started yelling at the top of his lung and infusing the mana in to his voice to make it boom loudly through the whole settlement.

Clearly trying to call his father and the guards to come and save him from this situation. But as he screamed he didn't notice the look of terror on the woman's face. She knew the Jarl couldn't stop Bjorn if he wanted to kill everyone here, what was this foolish man thinking.

"Bjorn, my love its no-"

Bang 

A lightning bolt far stronger than the last slammed into the ground in front of her tearing a hole straight through the ironwood and stone floor leaving a smoking crater in the flooring of the hall.

"Shut up, I don't want to hear your voice right now."

Bjorn's voice echoed thought the hall deep and powerfully matching the man's powerful presence. As the she heard his voice and saw the smoking crater in front of her she looked up and stared at the man. As she stared she felt as if she was truly seeing him for the first time.

Bjorn is a giant of a man standing an easy 7ft 8in with bulging muscles under his leather and fur armor that's been upgraded with having drake scale inlaid to add more protection against physical and magical attacks. His striking blue eyes that seemed to hold all of the power of the god Thor's power crackling with blue lightning and hinting at the storm that could be unleashed at anytime. His golden blonde long braids that fall down his back and his short but strong beard blonde as his beard. His face unnaturally handsome with small scars adorning his face a testament to the hundreds if not thousands of battle that he'd fought and won.

She felt her heart sink asking herself if she was truly smart trying to put the green hat on this man who is the man of her dreams or so she had thought at one point in her life. Her thoughts were cut off as she heard the Jarls son say something that she knew they would never be able to come back from.

"Besides you fucking oaf, she has been fucking me the entire time you've been in our area working for my father. Hahaha, it actually quite funny I only got close to you because she said that would be the only way to fool you hahaha. to think you once had a harem of beauties, and before you ask yes she told me how they all put the green hat on you hahaha how they all hated you and just used you for protecting them hahahah." He laughed hard as he started spewing the secrets that she had told him during their pillow talk.

While listening to the young man Bjorn looked over to the woman, Scala, the last woman from his harem that he believed would never do this to him because they had grown up together. She was a vision of beauty with her black hair and warm black eyes. Her body was quite plain to say the least but Bjorn had never cared about that because he believed that she truly loved him.

"Shut up Jolath!" Scala screamed as she heard the young man running his mouth about everything. She had to find a way to turn this around she just realized that Bjorn wasn't going berserk and had just looked at her. She thought she had a chance to salvage everything, then as if her mouth had a mind of her own she said something she had sworn to never say to anyone.

"It's true everything he said is true. Myself especially, I have been using you to keep me safe since we were children. I have never loved you and even being close to you has made me sick to my stomach more than once. My only solace was that you had all those other women following you doing the same thing, then those stupid bitches just had to get caught and I had to play the sympathetic woman role and comfort you after I had just slept with their brother's and or their fathers. Ugh it disgust me how they just let themselves get caught. Good thing you caught me now heheh, I was getting ready to have this fool impregnate me so i could make you think I was carrying your child but now i guess that is out of the-"

BOOM

An even bigger hole emerged after a loud sound. Bjorn's face was a mask of indifference as he looked at her with contempt flashing deep in his eyes.

"I don't thi-"

Bang

The door slamming open cut Bjorn's words short as another voice joined the fray.

"Who dares to lay hands on my son in my territory!" A loud and piercing voice yelled into the hall as the sound of many boots stomped against the ground as warriors started filing into the hall.
