The dust settled as Eivor dismounted, a heavy sigh escaping his lips. England’s political webs were exhausting, even for a legend. Ravensthorpe thrived, the air thick with the scent of Sigurd’s clan and Gunnar’s forge. He moved past familiar faces, his gaze fixed on one memory: her smile. He approached silently, a wolf in the twilight. She stood with her back to him, unaware. As she turned, folding a cloth, her eyes met his. The surprise, then the warmth, on her face justified every lonely night he had endured away from home.
