Excerpt: Guards followed me around town as closely as they did Ragnar’s sons now; Lagertha had indeed heard all about my involvement with the youngest Ragnarsson from someone. She had revealed as much shortly after Ivar’s return. “I think it was terrible, what Aslaug was doing to you,” Lagertha had said, with a condescending form of compassion in her eyes, “giving you over to her monstrous son.” I shifted uncomfortably, wondering exactly what she thought she knew. “I will keep you safe from him until your father returns with my Bjorn.” She had made it clear there was to be no discussion of my own wishes on the matter. I was her hostage now, and her plan for my keeping was clear.

Part of me was glad of it. I did not know my own heart clearly enough, or perhaps I did but it was certainly at odds with the wisdom of my mind. In our brief time together, Ivar had overwhelmed me. Our affair had lasted less than a week, and then he was gone. I hadn’t had time to think very clearly about what he was doing to me. Torturing me, manipulating me, loving me. Wooing me in his own way. I loved the rush he gave me, the way he made me feel ecstasy and agony both at once.

Every night I fell asleep imagining Ivar’s arms around me, just as we had laid together the night before he left for England. I claim you, Sigrunn Haraldsdottir, he had said in the woods. I still did not know what that truly meant to him. He had shared his body with me, despite his fears about his own abilities. He had said he wanted none other than me, had looked at me like I was a creature specially designed just for him. He hurt me and soothed me in turns. He called me “pet” and hoped to prove his prowess to others by being seen with me. Did he love me, or was I just a game to him?

It would still be wise of me to stay hidden under Lagertha’s wing, awaiting Father’s return. But if I were wise, I wouldn’t have gone to Ivar’s bed at all.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone that’s been following this little fic and dropping me encouraging notes along the way. Special thanks to my beta reader and fandom sister @ivarthebonelessx and to all the anons who stalked me for updates!! Keep your ears open for Part II of Sigrunn’s story, Watch Me Drown, sometime next month.

Fandom: Vikings
Pairing: Ivar the Boneless x Sigrunn Haraldsdottir (OFC)
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: BDSM; shitty BDSM communication, though they’re getting better; slightly less dubious consent, Ivar’s starting to realize that’s a thing too; breathplay/choking; anal sex; more in later chapters to be sure.

Summary: Act III of Hold Me Down (all three of these stories together add up to one novel). Sigrunn’s father, Harald Finehair, will allow Ivar to court his daughter so long as she entertains other suitors as well. Sigrunn is torn between acting the dutiful daughter and appeasing Ivar’s many moods and appetites, hoping that he will prove himself in England and her father will give them his blessing to marry. Ivar finds it very hard to play nice.

Notes: I think Act III will have less smut and more plot, though as I say that the ratio is still 50:50 for the first two chapters here. These two idiots continue to prefer working out their issues in bed, as problematic as that can be. Thanks to @underthenorthstar for the gorgeous moodboard above, which absolutely inspired Sigrunn to step up and start acting as awesome as that chick looks. Thanks to @mizzvengenz6661 for beta reading and reassuring me that sometimes the characters are allowed to be happy. And encouraging me when I want to torture them too. Finally, thank you so much to all the Anons and sister wives in Ivar’s Heathen Army for supporting and motivating me with the humbling outpouring of praise and support! This would never have happened without you all!!

“Then do your worst, Ivar, Ragnar’s son. Try and make me regret choosing you. Because I do not believe I ever will.”
