Semua Bab Fated To The Evil Viking : Bab 311 - Bab 320

"Oh! Goddess! You're sitting!" Lily exclaims.The bathtub or whatever I'm lying in was made in such a way that I can lie flat on my back with my face and ears elevated above the water. Right now I'm not lying flat like I was before. I'm sitting up inside the tub."Look at that! I am indeed sitting!" I also exclaim with excitement. "I'm recovering fast!""Yeah, you are. I think I should give you more shocking and exciting news. Don't you think?""Yes, yes, you should. Any more where that came from?" I ask and we both laugh "Should I still lie flat on my back or continue to sit?" I ask her"Lie flat. Let your body continue to soak in the herbs. For today, at least.""Yes, I agree." I grin as I slowly lay back in the water.I hear as she sigh contentedly then."Everything is almost back on track. Now where did I stop?... Yeah, where you were shocked when you heard what was not even my real age. You know, I'm certainly older than two thousand, nine hundred and eighty years old. I'll have

I hear a knock on the door. Instead of answering and telling the person to come in, I turn my back on it. Who else would be knocking if not Lily? This is her house, she sure doesn't need my permission to enter any room in her house.I heard the door creak open after a while that she had been knocking."Sif?" She calls softly."Yeah..." I answer without turning to face her. My voice sounds hoarse and I quickly clear it before asking her,"What do you want me to do? Is it time for another ritual? You can go, I'll be with you soon.""It's not time for another ritual. I came to call you for breakfast... Hearing your voice right now– are you still crying?""No, I'm not crying. And I'm not hungry now. I can always eat later."She sighs out loud."Please stop crying." She pleads, ignoring the lie I just told. "It's been two hours! How can you cry for that long!? You're making me feel bad about myself."I immediately turned to face her on hearing what she said. No, that's not right. How can

"Uhh... I– I... I wasn't... I mean..." I stammer on and on in embarrassment as the whole class roars in laughter. "Oh, never mind about the explanation. Take..." He says, stretching the marker in my direction. "Since you already understand what I'm teaching then please solve this and explain how you did it to the class."I sigh. Yeah, it's my fault. I admit that at some point I stopped listening and got lost in my thoughts. I blame myself for making the whole class laugh at me. I look at the problem written on the board and restrict myself from smiling because I know I can solve it. Thanks to Eric for sending me those books to study with while I was at Council Yard.I go to the front, collect the marker, and proceed to solve the problem in no time then I explain how I did it to the class as he told me to do. When I finish, I turn to see him looking at me with surprise. It's obvious he was sure I wouldn't be able to solve it since that was his first time teaching the topic. I guess h

"Now what's biting you?" I ask Eric. We're in the car on our way back from our newly set-up head office where we just had our first monthly review meeting. He's been driving the car in silence for the past twenty minutes which is unlike him and which makes me wonder what I did to piss him off to the point of ignoring me. He has never ignored me no matter what happened between us"You fired one director, seven managers, and five supervisors all in one day!"I roll my eyes at him."They were incompetent! Their last month's financial statement...""Their last month's financial statement was great! How can you call them incompetent when you know they're the best of the best in their various fields? You fired them for the most ridiculous reasons ever. You fired a project supervisor because he didn't add full stop at the end of a sentence. You fired the human resources manager because of a typographical error of spelling 'receive' as 'recieve'!"I shrug"That's incompetence. So you're ign

Martha hurries in. She looks around my room in confusion as if she's expecting to see someone."What's the hullabaloo about? You and who is it?"I stand from the bed to meet her where she's standing by the door."Martha! My wolf is here! Finally!" I lift her in a bear hug and happily spin her around. "My wolf is here! I'm so happy!"Martha whoops. Beaming with joy as I set her down."That's great news. Finally child! Finally, we can go home!"Her words surprised me. "You will go home with me!?" I ask in disbelief. I didn't know how to ask her before since I thought she would prefer to stay behind with Lily who is her real family."A girl can never have too many mothers. Who will take care of my grandbabies when you all go about your official duties? Nannies?" She said so seriously I couldn't help but burst into happy tears.I engulf her in another bear hug. "I love you so much, Mom. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.""I love you too child. I love you too.""God, Sif! My heart nearly
