and heard the sound of water being turned on. One thing he did secretly love about his new life was the availability of hot water. After being incarcerated in ice, he had a feeling he would never be warm enough again.
    By the time he reached the large shower, Rolf was naked, and Aki paused to consider the other man’s muscled body. Unlike Aki, he had no visible scars, but it didn’t matter. His battle experience showed in his eyes and in his warrior’s stance. Aki slowly took off his shirt and Rolf grinned at him.
    “Nice tat.”
    Aki glanced down at his arm and shoulder. The magical designs were so much a part of him that he hardly even noticed them.
    “This…favor you offer me.”
    Rolf raised an eyebrow. “Sucking you off?”
    “It does not mean that we are mated or matched as the Pavlovans would call it?”
    “Nah. I don’t feel like that about you, and I’m getting nothing off you. This is just for fun. Kind of a welcome-to-your-new-world thing. Did you ever do that back in your day?”
    “At the festivals, yes.”
    “Then think of this as pure pleasure with no expectations on either side.” Rolf snapped his fingers. “Take off your pants. I want to see you.”
    Aki obliged and Rolf fell to his knees, his tongue emerging to lick Aki’s already erect cock. “Damn, you’re big.” Even as he murmured the words, Rolf was sucking Aki deep into his mouth.
    The explosion of senses made Aki’s knees wobble as Rolf brought him to a hard and brutal climax. Within minutes, he was coming down Rolf’s throat, his hand fisted in his partner’s thick, red hair. Was it wrong that he thought of Elli while he did it? Wished she was kneeling at his feet and struggling to accept the length of his cock?
    He gulped in some air and released his rigid grip. “That was…good. I thank you.”
    Rolf got slowly to his feet, wiped his mouth and headed into the shower. “That was just an appetizer. Let’s clean up and then if you feel like it, I can show you the rest of my repertoire.”

Chapter Two
    “Good morning, brother.”
    Aki turned to see Einarr entering the kitchen area. He had the smug look of a well-satisfied man and moved rather slowly toward the white box with the icy insides where food was kept. Aki had opened it accidentally once and recoiled from the coldness.
    “I am surprised you can even walk,” Aki grumbled.
    Einarr smirked. “Frey cannot, which is why I am bringing her breakfast in bed.”
    “Do not pretend you know how to use the implements. Chase will be back in a minute to serve you. She does not appreciate ‘Vikings rampaging through her pantry.’”
    Einarr snorted and Aki raised an eyebrow. “I have not seen you for two days. The least you could do is sit down and talk to me for a few moments.”
    Einarr’s smile faded. “What is wrong?”
    “Something has to be wrong before my twin can tear himself away from his lover’s arms and speak to his only living brother?”
    “I am sorry. I know I am not being fair to you, but seeing Frey again…sharing her body and her mind has been the best experience of my life.” He took a seat opposite Aki. “You have my permission to laugh. I never imagined I would meet a woman who consumed me as Frey does.” Einarr sighed, reached across the table and took Aki’s hand. “I have also been neglectful of you.”
    “I have managed quite well by myself. The soldiers from Earth have been most welcoming…” He thought about Rolf’s talented mouth. “Most welcoming indeed.”
    “Good. I will make time to meet them today, I promise you.”
    The door opened and Chase, the woman who ran all the kitchens in Ash’s large dwelling, came in and smiled at them both.
    “Oh, Aki, he does look like you. His hair is quite different, but you both have such lovely blue eyes.”
    Einarr rose to his feet, strolled over to Chase and bowed. “It is a pleasure to meet you.”
    Chase shook his hand. Aki reckoned his brother was almost two feet taller than the
