Tova's Four Kingdoms Princess
TOVA It took most of the rest of the day to get Erik down the mountain. Despite his jocularity, he was sore and tired, and we had to take it slow. No one complained. We all knew how close we had come to losing our king. Some of the warriors had ridden ahead to make sure that the accommodations were ready for Erik when he arrived. When we finally made it off from the mountain and out of the trees, we were greeted with hundreds of warriors gathered around, cheering for their king. Erik sat straight upright in his saddle, waving and thanking them. I followed, a smile plastered on my face. Someone came to take Troi’s bridle and help Erik off his mount. Another warrior came to my side, but I waved him away. “I will take care of my steed myself, but thank you,” I said with a smile. He bowed deeply and disappeared. I watched to make sure Erik was being helped into his tent and relaxed when I saw Garth hurrying towards him, ready to settle him into his bed. I took my time wash
Tova's Four Kingdoms Love You
TOVA I walked to the bed, stopping at the side. Erik reached out a hand and grabbed me around the waist, pulling me into the bed. “I want you so bad,” he said. “I want to make you scream.” “Whatever will the warriors think?” I asked with a grin. He didn’t answer, just pressed his lips against mine. I opened my mouth and felt his tongue. I moaned and his kiss deepened. His hand was running up and down my side, fingers dancing over my nipples and then down to my mound. I spread my legs and arched myself up a little, moaning into his mouth and begging for him to take me. He circled my clit with his fingers before plunging three of them into me, hard. I arched my back and opened my mouth in a wordless scream. His fingers started slamming in and out of me quickly and hard. I spread my legs wider and arched my hips up more, changing the angle slightly so that he was curving a little inside me. I started shaking; the pressure was building inside me, and I didn’t want him to s
Tova's Four Kingdoms Dreams
ERIKI dreamed last night. I dreamed of being hit over the head and dragged out of my tent. I dreamed of being back in the barn, afraid for my Realm, sure I was going to die. I thrashed around in my sleep, finding a soft body in my bed. In my blind panic I felt the need to be in control, to dominate. I climbed on top of the body and ruthlessly jammed my rod inside, pounding in and out, finding a release for all the fear and anxiety that was riddling my body. When I opened my eyes and my senses returned, I saw that Tova was under me, looking up at me with wide eyes, silent. I rolled off her in horror.Neither of us said anything for a moment and then I asked quietly, “Did I hurt you?”She paused a moment before answering. “No.” I could hear something else in her voice, but I was too far gone in my emotions to worry about hers in this moment. She lay very still next to me, barely breathing, waiting for me to make the first move or to break the silence. I considered things I c
Tova's Four Kingdoms Unexpected Rage
TOVAI woke up to Erik thrashing in the bed and groping around. I half sat up, looking at him. He was dreaming.I stroked his hair, trying to calm him, when he suddenly rolled over the top of me and yanked up my nightgown. His knee forced in between my legs and I shifted, trying to get comfortable, when he rammed his c^ck into me, violently. A small cry escaped my lips. It hurt. I was dry and not ready.I looked at him, not understanding, and then realized he was still caught in the throws of his nightmare. He had his eyes closed and his head turned, and he wasn’t looking at me. He grunted, spilling his seed inside me, and then finally awoke, turning to see me. His eyes darkened for a moment and then he rolled off from me. I said nothing.“Did I hurt you?” he finally asked. I was quiet for a moment before answering. “No,” I said. It seemed the only acceptable answer. He was sleeping, having a nightmare, and he had lashed out. The sheer power of it scared me but I calmed
Tova's Four Kingdoms The Interrogation
TOVA The night was long. I spent it in Erik’s bed, but we didn’t talk nor did we touch. I spent most of it afraid he was going to roll on top of me like he did the previous night. He seemed calmer than when he left the tent, but he wasn’t back to normal. I didn’t know what was wrong. I was gathering chamomile for the sleipnirs when I saw Leila’s battalion heading to a nearby ravine to train again. I looked for Leila and didn’t see her, so I called out to one of her mates. “Where’s Leila?” I stood, holding the basket on my hip and shielding my eyes from the sun. “Interrogation,” he shouted back. “Who is she interrogating?” I asked. “No, she’s being interrogated,” was his reply. My blood froze. “Do you know why?” I asked. “The High King thinks she had something to do with him being taken,” was his reply. I dropped my basket and raced back to camp. I had to ask two warriors where the interrogation was taking place, but the second one was able to lead me to the tent. I wa
Tova's Four Kingdoms Animal
TOVA I left the tent and went blindly back to where I was gathering chamomile before this whole nightmare started. I bent to pick up the basket and refill it with the blossoms, wilted now in the heat. Tears coursed down my face. I felt a huge sense of loss; not only have I lost my friends, but I feel like I lost Erik. I understood that he experienced some pretty severe trauma, but I believed that he could overcome all of it, if only he didn’t have Arne whispering in his ear. The sun was beginning to set, and I was having a hard time seeing the blossoms, so I picked up the basket and started down the hill. I would give the basket to the groom with the instructions to put a handful in the sleipnirs’ food every morning. Chamomile was a nice treat for them, and it was good for them, too. I entered the camp, and a guard intercepted me. “My queen, the king is requesting you.” I gave him a half smile. “I’m guessing that’s not how he said it, is it?” I asked. “He was pretty ang
Tova's Four Kingdoms Aftermath
TOVAI wrapped my arms around myself and hurried to the river. I held my tears in; I wasn’t going to let Erik be the reason they fell. I climbed down the bank and took off my clothing, slipping into the cold water. I gingerly sat down, letting the cool water soothe my aching skin and body. I scooted deeper where the current was faster and let the rushing water gently massage my body. I lay back and relaxed.I realized that I was no longer scared of Erik or of my future. I was angry and I was tired. I was angry at Arne for putting suspicions into Erik’s head that didn’t belong there. I was angry at myself for putting myself in the position I was in tonight. And I was mostly angry at Erik for allowing the trauma of what he went through overwhelm him so much that he turned abusive towards me, the person who was trying to help him. And I was so tired. I was tired of being treated as an object to be loved or thrown away at a moment’s whim. I was tired of the damn prophesy being
Tova's Four Kingdoms Chores
TOVAI was drying off at the river, just finishing a lesson with another warrior when Arne came stomping up. The warrior next to me stood at attention, but I ignored Arne, shaking the water out of my braid before pulling on a dry shift over my wet undergarments.“I have an assignment for you,” he barked. It took me a moment to realize that he was talking to me.“Yes?” I asked, mildly curious. I knew that I had been making him mad this entire week. For some reason my presence anywhere irritated him. It also irritated him that I didn’t care. He looked at me with barely concealed hatred. “The latrines are being moved and need to be cleaned,” he said. “There is a bucket and lye on the southeast corner. You need to go into the latrines, clean each one and then let the warriors know when it’s ready to be moved. They’re digging a new trench. When you’re done with that, the stable boys will need help mucking the stalls. They are filling in the old latrine with soil tonight so they

Tova's Four Kingdoms Greatest Warriors
TOVALater that night Erik was helping me take off my ornate dress. I had my back to him, my hair lifted up and he was untying the lacing.“Why do they tie these so tightly when you’re obviously with child? Of course you won’t have a waist,” Erik complained, picking at the knots. I shrugged.“Fashion, I guess,” I replied. He finally got the knot untied and spun me around, lifting the heavy dress off from me. I gave a sigh of relief and collapsed on the couch. He sat beside me and lifted my feet into his lap, idly rubbing them.“She will tame the Lion,” Erik mused. “You know who the Lion is, right?”I sighed again. “Yes. And I hope HE isn’t who that prophesy is about.”“The king of the Minot Realm does have a fearsome reputation,” Erik acknowledged. “But so did I.”“She is only six,” I commented. “That’s the same age I was when Birgir came and got me from my parents. I’m not letting Greta go if he comes knocking.”Erik nodded. “I agree. I will fight to keep Greta here unti
Tova's Four Kingdoms Prophesies
TEN YEARS LATERTOVAI was on my knees in the nursery trying to finish braiding six-year-old Greta’s curly red hair. It was normally a mess and I normally let it be a mess, but today was the day she was going to get her prophesy. Her brother, Leif, had gotten his years ago and the seers were finally back in the area. It was a tradition that all the children of the realm participated in. Even Erik had gotten a prophesy at one time.I clumsily climbed to my feet, again big with child. The midwives were convinced I was carrying twins this time. I had another easy birth when I birthed Greta and I was hoping this pregnancy would not be any different. “My lady, can I help?” One of the maids came forward to help me with Greta’s hair. I smiled at her. “Please try, Berta. I can not do a thing with it.” I handed over the brush and ribbons and then looked for my son. I found Leif sitting in the rocking chair near the window, reading a book. I smiled at him. At age ten he looked
Tova's Four Kingdoms Baby
TOVAI woke up in the middle of the night with a start, unsure what had woken me. I felt achy all over and decided to take a bath in the morning. I would ask the medicine man for some herbs to put into the water to soothe my muscles.I rolled over and snuggled into Erik. He rolled slightly in his sleep, pressing further into me. I dozed back to sleep when I woke again. This time I knew what had caused it.I carefully rolled away, hoping not to wake Erik. I felt a horrific pressure in my low back and sharp pains were shooting down my leg. I got up and carefully put on a dressing gown over my hugely swollen body, tying the straps in the front. I began pacing up and down the room, hoping to alleviate some of the pressure in my low back. I was in labor.I knew from my lessons with the midwives that the baby could take hours, or even days to come. I wasn’t prepared for this amount of pain, though. The pressure made me feel like my body was going to drop out of my bottom and the
Tova's Four Kingdoms Dining Room
ERIKI rode Troi into the stable at a run. It had been a long time since she got to go out and ride hard like that. Tova was too large and too far along in her pregnancy to ride, but she still came down to the stable to pet and talk to Bo. He wouldn’t allow anyone else to ride him, including me, so he had to stay when I went out with Troi. I gave the reins to one of the stable boys and then went into Bo’s stall, patting him. “She’s doing okay, boy,” I murmured to him. “It’s just too cold for her to come down and see you.” The new year had come in with a bang, the snow falling enough to cover the first story windows in the castle. After the snow came the winds, biting and freezing everything into a glossy, slippery mess. Tova was large with child and clumsy, so venturing outside wasn’t a good idea. She was going stir-crazy inside the castle. She recently began rearranging the baby’s room for the third time.I dropped a handful of oats into Bo’s feed bucket and carefully made
Tova's Four Kingdoms Dangerous Traditions
TOVAThe days of the celebration passed. It took a week for the castle to become back to normal. Our guests spent a day or two recovering from the merriment of the day before heading back to their lives. Birgir and Ulka stayed a few more days, working out some of the details of their new acquisition. “I’m too old to have kids,” Ulka said, abruptly one night at dinner. Erik choked on his soup and Birgir had to pound him on his back. I started laughing and couldn’t stop.“What on earth brought on this conversation?” Erik asked, horrified. “What are we going to do about an heir?” Ulka said. “Birgir and I aren’t exactly young. We probably have fifteen to twenty good years left to rule, but what will be do after that?”I tipped my head to the side. “Exactly how old are you, my lady?” I asked, curious. Erik gave a shout of laughter. “Good luck getting that information from her. It’s a closely guarded secret.” I threw my wadded up napkin at his head and he ducked. Birgir grinn
Tova's Four Kingdoms Celebration
TOVAI thought my knees would buckle under me but Erik’s steadying hand on my elbow and waist helped. One by one the kings and queens stood. The king of Skaldik stepped forward and dropped to his knee.“Kings and Queens of the Four Kingdoms. I, King Olgir, pledge my alliance to each and every one of you. I pledge to work together, to contribute to the well-being of all of our people.”The remaining kings and queens stomped their feet, pounding out their acceptance. And one by one, each of the royalty took to their knee and made the same pledge.Then it was my turn. I wasn’t sure if Erik had intended on participating, but I knew I needed to. I dropped to my knee and bowed to them.“Kings and Queens of the Four Kingdoms. I, High Queen Tova, pledge my alliance to each and every one of you. I pledge that we will work together and contribute to the well being of all people, regardless of where they dwell.”Erik fell to his knee beside me and repeated the oath. We stood together a
Tova's Four Kingdoms Unite
TOVAI stood in front of the crowd, nervous. I looked out, shocked at how many people were there. Every flat surface that could be used as a table and every stool, step and chair had been brought from the castle and were filled. Furs from the beds were placed on the ground with cushions for those who arrived too late to find a seat. As far as I could see there was a sea of people, and they were all looking at me.I cleared my throat and began speaking. I spoke loud, partly to control the shaking in my voice, and partly because I wanted all to hear what I had to say.“Men and Women of Oremgoth. I am speaking to you now as a sister from Nidavelle and as your High Queen. Hear my words.Oremgoth is a realm that is made up of four specific kingdoms. Because of location, each of these kingdoms has a specific gift that is from nature, herself.”I turned to the king of Skaldik and inclined my head before turning back to the people. “Skaldik is to the north. Their people are hardwork
Tova's Four Kingdoms New Royalty
ERIKI stood on the podium in the pavilion and looked out on to the field. More people than expected had shown up to the ceremony and that pleased me. Some of the guests didn’t look too pleased and some looked uncomfortable, but my mother was down there doing her best to stop the muttering.The muttering was happening because Tova insisted on mixing the perceived social ranks. Peasants were seated at the table with noblemen. Children from all classes ran around together, playing games and enjoying each other’s company. And those who did not send a response saying that they would be attending, regardless of status, were seated on furs and cushions that were placed out last minute. I knew that the only reason no one had left in a huff is because they were curious about what was going on. I stepped out and raised my hand, garnering the attention of everyone. The hum of conversations slowed and then finally stopped, the only noise made from the servants clanking silver together in
Tova's Four Kingdoms Beautiful
TOVAI was happy to see that the servants had filled my bath with lightly scented water. I climbed in and let the warm water relax my body before quickly washing and coating my hair with oils. I climbed out, wrapping myself in my robe and wandering back to the bedroom where my chambermaid had laid out my gown for the evening.Instead of the chambermaid, Erik was sitting on the couch, shirtless. I looked at him and breathed in, hard. I knew the look in his eyes.“Come here,” he said, widening his legs. I stepped forward until I was standing within arm’s reach of him. “Take off the robe,” he said, eyes smoldering. I obediently untied the sash and let the robe drop to my feet. He hissed his approval through his teeth when he saw my body, still glistening with the oils I had used. He lowered his head and started sucking on my nipple and I threw my head back and moaned. “You know we only have a few minutes,” Erik whispered, his mouth full of my breast. “No, we don’t. Take your
