Hello my fellow readers!
Here is the third installment for the Ice&Fire series!
Two new characters are introduced in this chapter and I hope you like them!
You also find out the name of Shardae and Loki's child!

I don't own any of Marvel's characters!
I just own my OC's.

Shardae stood beside her mother in the throne room waiting for Loki to arrive. Five months had passed since Loki tried to take conquer Midgard. Upon discovering her mate was alive and well Shardae had never been happier. That night after their reunion she bound herself to her mate as well as making love with him. However the act of intimacy resulted in a pregnancy. One that was discovered to be progressing faster than normal. As though her daughter sensed her mother's uneasiness the child kicked and a smile came upon Shardae's lips.

Her stomach was now very visible under all the clothes she wore and today she was wearing a summer dress the color of forest green. Shardae wore a golden circlet on her head showing that she was to be Thor's bride. The wedding was already set a month from now because Odin wanted Shardae to have her child before marrying his oldest son. Selene noticed her daughter was restless and she placed her hand into Shardae's. As promised Odin allowed Shardae to go visit Loki whenever she wished and the God of Mischief at first wouldn't accept her visits.

But eventually he gave in because his silent treatment had been hurting his beloved and he no longer wished to see Shardae suffering because of his stubbornness. During one of their visits the God of Mischief suggested the name he had thought of awhile back and Shardae liked it. The sound of chains made Shardae snap her head up and she saw her mate being lead into the throne room by many guards being held in chains. She hated seeing her other half in chains but she said nothing.

"Loki" Frigga said.

"Hello mother" Loki greeted the Queen of Asgard first. "Have I made you proud?"

Shardae rolled her eyes despite being imprisoned Loki still had that smartass tongue of his.

"Please don't make this worse" Frigga begged her son.

"Define worse" Loki answered her.

"Enough!" Odin called out making every turn to him. "I will speak to the prisoner alongside Shardae and her mother"

Frigga turned and took her leave from the throne room.

"You look well today my love" Loki finally greeted Shardae.

Shardae nodded before Loki turned to Odin. He walked a bit forward before coming to a stop. His usual smirk came to his lips and he laughed lightly.

"I really don't see what the fuss is about"

"Do you not truly feel the gravity of your crimes?" Odin began. "Wherever you go, there is war, ruin, and death"

"I went down to Midgard to rule the people of earth as a benevolent god just like you, and Shardae had no part in my plans as she told you her dragon half took control and led her to me she shouldn't be punished for my crimes"

"She willingly made her choice to marry your brother to spare your life" Odin continued. "And we are not gods, we are born, we live, we die, just as humans do"

"Give it or take 5,000 years" Loki countered.

"All of this because Loki desires a throne?"

"It is my birthright"

"Your birthright!" Odin yelled. "Was to die as a child, cast out onto a frozen rock, if I had not taken you in, you would not be here now to hate me"

"If I am here to hear your verdict then just swing it, it's not that I don't enjoy our little talks, it's just, I don't love them"

"Frigga, Shardae, and your unborn daughter are the only reason you're still alive, while Shardae is free to see you inside your cell, you will never see your mother again"

"I have the right to see my daughter when she arrives" Loki stated calmly.

"Which I will allow" Odin interrupted. "Even I am not that cruel to deny a father from his child"

Loki remained quiet and was grateful that his adopted father at least gave him those choices.

"You will spend the rest of your days in the dungeons" Odin finally delivered his verdict.

"And what of Thor? You will still make that witless oak king while I rot in chains?"

"Thor must strive to undo the damage you have done, he will bring order to the Nine Realms and then yes he will be king"

"Well that went well" Selene said to her daughter trying her best to cheer her daughter up.

"At least he won't be killed thank gods" Shardae agreed.

"Where is your fiancé anyway?" Selene asked her only child.

"On Vanaheim helping Hogun to kick some rebel's ass" Shardae answered.

Even though Shardae and Thor would never be involved romantically the God of Thunder gave Shardae all the attention he thought was best for her. Shardae was thankful to have Thor as a friend and eventually she would accept him as her husband. Thor also made it clear he would not bed her without her consent or do anything to hurt her which Shardae found sweet. But Thor would go the Bifrost every night and would check in with Heimdall to see how Jane was doing. Thor's heart still belonged to the human female.

Her thoughts were broken when two loud roars was heard from outside her bedroom. Immediately her mother went to the balcony and Shardae followed after her mother. In the sky soaring towards the palace were two dragons. They were slightly smaller than Selene and Shardae but still large enough to fill the sky. One was pure silver all over his body while the other had golden scales. Both dragons had four legs alongside their wings. These dragons were none other than Felix's Shardae's father and mate to Selene and Caim her grandfather.

Caim was larger than his son and he was considered a beauty in his dragon form. Selene turned around and Shardae knew her mother was excited to finally see her mate. Outside Odin and Frigga were waiting for the two males dragons to land. Caim was the first to land and his body smoked silver before turning to his human form.

"Grandfather!" Shardae shouted rushing over to her only living grandparent and hugged him.

A smile broke upon Caim's face and he happily welcomed his granddaughter's embrace.

"I have missed you little one" he told her.

Caim looked like the average aging human man with short silver hair however he was only two hundred years old. His eyes were icy blue and they matched with his short silver hair. Felix first greeted his mate and wife before turning to his daughter. Felix looked like his father only his hair was dark brown and his eyes were the same as his sires.

"Dad" Shardae said hugging her father for the first time in so long.

"I've missed you kiddo" Felix said and he kissed her forehead. "And I see your hatchling is doing well too"

"Lord Caim and Felix welcome to Asgard" Odin greeted the male dragons.

"Thank you" Felix replied and he shook hands with Odin.

Felix briefly kissed Frigga's hand before Caim said.

"You've gotten old"

Odin eyed Caim in a similar manner and the two men remained quiet before they started to laugh.

"Wait a minute you two know one another?" Selene demanded at her father-in-law.

"Aye we do but we haven't seen each other in over a century" Caim answered.

"Holy shit" was all Shardae could say not believing that her own grandfather and Odin were friends.

After the rest of her family was settled in the palace Shardae decided to pay her mate a visit to the dungeons. Loki was reading a book when Shardae arrived in front of his cell. Loki perked his head up and his usual smirk came upon his lips. The guards undid the force field and Shardae was quick to enter the cell. Even in his cell Loki muttered a spell under his breath and it was a spell that gave the dragoness and her beloved privacy.

"I'm sorry you had to see me in such a pathetic state earlier my love" Loki apologized as he placed his forehead against hers.

Shardae didn't answer and she gave her mate a much needed kiss on the mouth. Loki responded by wrapping an arm around her waist while his free hand caressed her face. After a few minutes the couple pulled away from each other to breathe.

"I miss this" Loki said quietly.

"I do as well" Shardae agreed.

"How long until you give birth to Nimue?" Loki asked.

"Two more weeks are what the healers are thinking" Shardae answered. "She has been shifting inside me"

"She has to learn what her human half and dragon half are as well as her" Loki stopped.

"We don't know how much of your Jotunheim blood she wields" Shardae interrupted.

Loki remained quiet and she placed a hand to her mate's face.

"I also came to warn you my grandfather and sire are here so if they come to see you mind your manners"

"Oh really?" Loki asked a smirk coming to his lips.

"Don't you start" Shardae gave her mate a warning growl. "My grandfather is not a dragon to be trifled with"

"If that is what you wish" Loki said.

Shardae smirked knowing her beloved for now would behave. She gave her mate another kiss before she and him started their visit.

^^
So I pictured Bill Nighy to portray Caim. The original Caim belongs to Squaresoft I just liked the name!
The original name Nimue belongs to whoever made her. Peter Facineli would portray Felix. Hope you liked!
