Valkyrie Lost

As the god of war and bringer of order and justice I can have anything. Except one mortal woman.I came to Astrid's prayer for justice. Why, I didn't know. I should have left after that, but I didn't. Something about the mortal woman lured me like no other had. It was wrong, I knew that. I should have allowed her to live out her short years as they were intended.Yet, not even I am a match for a yearning heart.From shared drinking horns to unforgettable nights, I am determined to bring her the honor she deserves, just as she has sworn to shield me from the horrors of the world. But when trouble amongst the gods stirs, Astrid may just pay the price for my transgressions.And the price for spilling the blood of my Valkyrie, is one too steep for any god.
