40 Favs in 40 Days: Day 28
The Last Kingdom
“We are one, you and I. From the moment I took your hand on the steps of the great hall of Eoferwic, we were bound as one. You may dislike me, hate me if you wish, despise me at times. But love is immortal. It goes on.” - Uhtred, 3x06
I had an anon request asking for jealous Sihtric and well… I’ve just cooked one up! So I hope you enjoy :)

It made his blood boil when you watched you flirt with other men. His hands scrunched up into fists, his breathing heavier as you watched you run a finger across the man’s cheek.
He knew it was all apart of the plan that Uhtred had come up with but it still made him so mad.
You threw your head back to laugh, your fingers trailing up the man’s arms as he grabbed you around the waist and pulled you close.
“Cool it Sihtric. You’ll blow the whole bloody operation.” Finan said, stopping him from leaping out and hitting the man straight in the face.
“It’s just a little sabotage. She’ll get the keys from his back pocket and…”
Oh she’d reached for the keys alright. Her whole body was pressed up against the man, his face nudging the side of her neck. He was going to kill him. Plan be damned because if he had to watch this any longer…
He wouldn’t be responsible for his actions.
Sihtric watched as she managed to get herself out of his grip, making flirty movements as she made her way over to where Osferth was sitting, dropping the keys in his lap and making her way out of the door, Osferth following close behind her, who turned and went different way once they’d reached the end of the tavern.
She made her way over, wiping her neck where the man had been pawing her and Sihtric grabbed her arm, pulling her to a secluded spot. Finan didn’t even say a word.
“Sihtric… What?”
“He touched you.” He growled as he pushed her against a tree, his hands holding hers above her head.
“Yes. And I touched him. It was the plan.”
“Did you like it?”
“What? Sihtric you aren’t making sense…”
“Did you enjoy him touching you?”
Her eyes took on a mysterious gleam and she smirked at him.
“And what if I did?” She whispered, her mouth close to his.
He let out a growl of frustration, kissing her hard, his body thrumming with anger and passion, biting her bottom lip as he pulled away. Her eyes were hooded with passion, her breathing coming faster as she lent back up to kiss him but he pulled back, watching her.
“Don’t stop there Sihtric…”
“Did you enjoy him touching you?” He whispered down her ear, biting down on the lobe.
“If I say yes will you carry on like this?” She whispered back heavily.
“Sihtric! Y/N! Let’s go.” He heard Finan shout and he swore under his breath.
“Do you want me to carry on like this?” Sihtric asked.
“Oh gods yes.”
“Then as soon as we get back home I will erase every trace of his touch with my hands and my mouth and then I will show you what it means to make me jealous.”
She grinned at him, her eyes burning with passion and he kissed her harshly before he took her hand and they ran after Finan and the others.
Oh she was definitely not going to walking tomorrow, Sihtric thought to himself.
Oh my😲! I'm LOVING jealous Sihtric💕. LMAO. The fact that it was part of their plan but he was still bothered. That's hot!
A/N: This was requested by anon. It’s taken a while because I was revising for stuff and now I’m getting back in to it.
I’ve redone this story so many times 😅 and I still don’t think I’ve got it right so I’m really, really sorry if it sucks. Also I’m tagging everyone who was apart of my Finan fic :)
“And what is it that you want tonight?”
The woman sat straddling Sihtric’s lap, her mouth teasing the skin at his neck. She was popular, extremely popular and after a few weeks he’d finally managed to get her alone.
“What’s your name?” Sihtric asked her.
“My name? You’re paying and all you want is my name?”
“Yes.”
“It’s Ealswith.”
First if all, can I say how much I love the premise. Sihtric falling for woman who has no name, wealth, inheritance or family is brave. And as for Ealswith, she's simply adorable and likeable from the start.
I enjoyed the slow build of their relationship.
The fact that Sihtric paid for her time only to converse, was heartwarming. When Ealswith confessed that no man had ever asked her anything, let alone her name, it was heartwrenching.😔
Awesome to see that in the end, Uhtred was able to trust Easwith not to hurt Sihtric.
I'm sorry but this has to be said. Uhtred is a nut.
"You want to marry a whore?" Uhtred asked, looking at Sihtric like he'd lost his mind."
When I read that, I lost it!
a/n so this part of the Arseling’s music challenge! @geekandbooknerd song Perfect by Ed Sheeran. So it’s no easy task writing a beautiful romantic song to fit the mind of a ferocious Saxon killing Dane but I do lie a challenge. To guesses who the perfect couple are in this oneshot are?
My first non Finan story.. *deep breath*
Young Ragnar leaned against the wall of his cell, grateful for the privacy for it wouldn’t be long before the guards would bring them out to spend the day in their cages. Dangling there for every Saxon to see, Brida had played along with it at first spitting and yelling Danish insults at them but even she soon got bored of tormenting Christians. How did it come to this? How was brother pitted against brother? The once mighty Earl Guthrum becoming Christian? Ragnar stared across his cell to look at the woman he loved and wondered what was going through her mind. Probably the cutting off of Alfred’s balls and the ramming of them down Uhtred’s throat she colourfully told him the last time Ragnar asked. “Something funny Ragnar?” she snapped. “I was about to ask you what was on your mind then I remembered what you said last time I was foolish enough to ask.” he chuckled. Brida glared at him for a moment before snorting laughter herself and crawled as far as her chain would allow her to reach for her beloved’s hand. Ragnar copied her and together through the bars they held hands. Who would have thought it? Little Brida, to have been that woman who was meant for him? He remembered that night in the woods where he first saw her as grown woman as a warrior. Who would have thought it that they would be humping a month later. He recalled that night with a smile on his face, how perfect she looked that night still covered in Saxon blood after a well deserved victory, where it had been she who had approached him in one of the Saxon’s holy houses no less. How perfect she looked even now chained to the wall of a Saxon prison. His Brida. He made a vow that when they were free he would marry her kill kjartan take his fortress at Dunholm for their themselves and have children of their own. They were fighting against all odds but he knew they’d be alright because he had Brida and tonight as was every night she was wild angry and perfect.
I loved it. Brida and Ragnar😍
Summary: Your father sent you to Wessex to stay with your Aunt, the Lady Aelswith, in the hopes her pious and Christian attitude will keep you under check and hopefully get you a husband, but what no one banks on is Finan, the sarcastic and terribly handsome Irish man who catches your eye…
A/N: Only one more chapter to go :) I hope you love this one! It’s happy happy happy 😁

You spoke to Ethel last but it was awkward to say the least. She hated you, that much was obvious and she was reluctant to let you know anything about how she knew your father but you managed to get it out of her eventually.
Omg! That's so beautiful. 💓💕They've really been through allot. I love a romance that has to be fought for. I like Finan's line at the end. "Yeah, at first sight."😭

Pain. Pain pain pain.
The sound of shouting and then…
Silence.
Men laughing, someone shouting threats.
Finan.
Uhtred.

A/N: I love all of you for your lovely feedback! Also I’m sorry about this one but… Well you’ll see haha

“You look tired Finan. Late night was it?” Uhtred said sarcastically.
Sihtric choked on a laugh and Osferth looked at you as Finan let out another yawn.
You’d both been up until the early hours this morning, pleasing and touching each other, never getting enough of each other. You’d both finally passed out asleep and got about 3 hours of sleep, probably not the best considering you were going into battle today.
Wow! I actually felt some empathy towards Ethel. At first, I was angered by her presence and the "news".......but thank God.
Reader's father is a real peace of work. What kind of father is he? He deserves whatever happens on the battlefield.

Finan POV in this one and some violence but it’s well deserved violence haha

FINAN
They were waiting near the camp, waiting for Sihtric to come back with news.
His heart was beating loudly in his chest with every passing minute. He should be in there now, fighting to get her out.
But it wasn’t the plan.
What is wrong with her abusive father? Well, thanks to him, Hothar got what he deserved. I'm certian they didn't see it ending that way but...thus is life.
And as for Ethel, I knew she was a troublemaker😂. Poor Finan and Reader. Things are only going to get worse before they get better.
P.S. I don't trust Haesten👀
