Ever since he was a child, Adam knew he was different. He's always been tortured by visions of the future, and the villagers he lives with never let him forget that he's different. In a culture where the supernatural is forbidden, he's considered an outcast no matter how much he desperately tries to help. When the Vikings land on the beach next to his quiet town it's to Adam's dismay, especially when he finds out that they're not there for silver, gold, or women - they're looking for him. He's taken by force to their leader, Guthrun.
A prophecy foretold Adam being claimed by the all powerful leader, and nothing, not even Adam's weak protests, can stop it. Adam will struggle to make sense of things as Guthrun dominates him mentally, physically, and sexually in ways Adam never imagined as the prophecy is fulfilled and Guthrun tries to make his kingdom the most powerful on earth with Adam by his side.
