He looked at the beautiful woman that walked on the road next to him, she was proud and stubborn as she was beautiful.
Since the journey back to Pompeii started, she insisted of walking, instead of him holding her on his horse.
From his birth in Germania, to being a slave, then a gladiator, to winning his freedom and then becoming the most feared and ruthless Roman general the Roman world had ever known.
But because he was known to fight like a rabid, uncontrollable Wolf, no women had ever wanted to marry him. Stigandr could of married anyone, even if they didn't want to, but luckily to the many women in Pompeii he never had a woman that he liked.
Until...
Two days ago, a strange occurrence happened. A man far into the future, took over his body temporarily searching for something or someone, but in those moments the man called Mr Young, accidentally showed the pictures of Alice. As if a burning hunger, had just taken over him, he had destroyed the enemy in one full swipe, only thing keeping him going was an overpowering need to find this woman. Luckily the gods where on his side, he had found her wearing her strange clothes, unconscious but alive on the side of the road and in that moment it felt like he was finally home and ready to settle down, until she glared at him with disgust. He knew it wasn't directed to him but the man called Mr Young, but all the same it hit him so hard and in that moment he swore that he would do everything in his power to get rid of this Mr Young and hopefully one day she will look upon him with love.
He was pulled out his thoughts when his Alice said "ouch, blast it" he turned to see Alice bent down rubbing her right ankle with pain written on her face. Then if feeling that Stigandr was looking at her said alarmed "oh no, I um. I will be fine in a moment..." he got off his horse before she could say anything else, picked her up in his arms, put her on his horse and then got up behind her with his arms wrapped around her wait. He had to admit it, he loved having her close to him, it felt right and natural, as if finally finding a piece of his soul that he didn't realise he lost, not realising that it wasn't to be.
