The Summer Siege (Viking Omegaverse, #3)

by Lyx Robinson

“Like Thor himself, conquering alone.”

Still so funny seeing my husband’s name spoken so reverently

Reaching the end of a butterfly chase and finding powder on my fingers; knowing that to catch it means to spoil it.

Lyx has such a beautiful way with words

“Oh,” he says, and I can hear the smile in that idiot’s voice; “Oh. I’m so sorry to interrupt… it’s not like we’re in the middle of a stealth mission, or anything like that. You carry on.”

Have I said I love Ivar yet? Because, I love this man

Mark that boy and his bloody blade. He slays friend and foe alike. If we follow him, we will be well fed indeed.

This is written like a a Yelp review for a warlord lmao

“Brother,” I say. “You haven’t said a single derogatory word to me all evening. Are you sure you’re all right?”

They may not be related by blood, but they’re brothers alright

I don’t like the solemnity of silence between lovers. What is shared is always too raw, too profound somehow.

Ivar’s chapters feel like I’m getting into the head of my emotionally unavailable ex boyfriend

But now you really are here. And all the time that was robbed to us cascades over me in a shower of riches. We have time again. We have time to do anything we want.

I’m sobbing

“I’d like to know exactly what, in the name of Loki’s horse cunt, happened out there last night.”

God, I wish he would’ve referred to Thor instead so I could laugh at my husband’s expense

Will you forgive me, my love… will you forgive me if I lay here like this? If I take this peace from her?

My heart😭

I can barely recall how this felt… but I know you didn’t feel like this. You had sharp edges; she is so pliant and yielding. I’m sinking into her, how she lets me lead her on, our mouths joined as though there could be no separating now that we’ve begun this. She strokes up my neck, fingers carding through my beard. You… you used to do that. I need to stop. Stop thinking about you.

I’ve never seen a book describe grief so well

“Would you stop molesting my wife at every waking moment?”

I think my husband actually said this exact sentence to my dogs last night
