'I’ll make them pay' - Ivar imagine
Hi ! So I rewatched Vikings season 5a and if you're still taking requests, can I please have a imagine of Ivar being full of rage / losing is temper because his love interest x reader has been a bit injured during the first battle against Lagertha and Ivar's brothers ? I hope it's make sense, sorry for my bad English...
Hope you all enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it! Thank you for the request, anon :)
Warnings: violence (I mean it is Vikings)
She was fearless. He watched her swing her sword effortlessly, piercing into the skins of their enemies.
He wondered how she still managed to look elegant even covered in the blood of his brother’s warriors.
His gaze never left her for too long, making sure she was safe, while he charged around in his chariot, racking up his own share of kills.
His eyes couldn’t be everywhere though... and at some point, he lost sight of her.
His head darted across the battlefield, desperately trying to find her. His heart thumping faster and faster in his chest as fear overcame him.
He hadn’t felt fear this whole day; he was Ivar the boneless. Not afraid of war nor dying. Yet, when his princess, his (Y/N), was in danger, he was the most fearful man alive.
His blue eyes turned a dark shade of black. The expression of a crazy man etched onto his face. Overcome with rage he went on a rampage. Cutting through the battlefield, slaughtering anyone and everyone in his way, determined to find her.
Before he knew it the battle was over. Lagertha and her army’s had retreated, leaving only the bodies of the dead and wounded sprawled across the field.
“FIND HER” He roared at the top off his lungs. “FIND (Y/N)”.
Ivars men didn’t dare hesitate and instantly started searching the ground.
Ivar waited impatiently before hearing the words “found her” in the distance. It filled him with dread. All he could think is 'what if she’s dead'
He raced over there faster than Thor’s lightning splits through the air in a storm.
“Is she alright?” he rushed out his words, panic evident in his tone as he climbed from his chariot.
“She is unconscious.. but alive.” The man replied.
Ivar let out a shaky breath of relief, thanking the gods.
“Get her back to camp,” Ivar demanded. “She needs help.” His voice cracked despite his efforts to mask it.
The man quickly hauled her over his shoulder and motioned towards the cart carrying the wounded.
“Be careful with her!” Ivar hissed at the mans roughness.
“Get them all out. I want it empty” Ivar demanded when the cart arrived. The cart driver turned around and flashed a disagreeing look at Ivar.
Ivar cut him off before he could speak up. He didn’t care at this point, the other bodies in the cart would slow it down. All that mattered to Ivar right now is that (Y/N) got there safely and quickly.
The men didn’t question Ivar and did as he requested.
Shortly after they were off, galloping hurriedly through fields and forests, Ivar following closely behind, his eyes never leaving his love.
As soon as she was patched up, Ivar rushed into the tent to see her. His heart dropped at the sight.
Dark bruises and cuts decorated her once perfect skin. A deep purple shade surrounded her puffy eyes. She was barely conscious.
He caressed the skin on her face, causing her to wince and wake up.
He flinched his hand back, not wanting to hurt her when she looked up. “I-Ivar?” She spoke with a small smile carved on her lips.
“Yes, my love. It’s Ivar. It’s me.” He struggled out, trying his best not to crumble.
“A stab wound-“ The medic interrupted, “in her torso.”
Ivar snapped his head around and then back to (Y/N), now looking at her torso. His pain quickly turned to anger again as he lashed out, pushing whatever was nearest to him.
How dare they? How dare they harm his love.
He was pacing around angrily now. How could he have allowed this to happen? He started to blame himself.
“Ivar-“ (Y/N) spoke up, attempting to calm him down.
“I’ll show them, my love-“ he cut her off, “that nobody is allowed to touch what is mine.” He growled.
His eyes darkened again: “I’ll make them pay.”
