Chapter 7

Rebecca awoke in the chamber where her punishments took place months before, she tugged at her wrists but they were shackled to the posts. She sighed, she was back in the position she had hoped to never be in again. She bowed her head in defeat. This was it. She was never going to see Loki again. Either way one of them will die.

"Frustrated are you, darling?"

"Rikes," she groaned, "of course you're here."

There was no response except for the crack of the whip. Every crack was followed by a howl of pain. They had fallen into their old routine except Rikes never stopped even after Rebecca had fallen into unconsciousness. He grinned as he continued his assault on her slumped body. He was going to whip the life out of her.

Loki awoke on a cold stone floor, he brought his hand to his head that was throbbing like he had been trampled by a thousand horses. He stood up shakily and wiped his mouth. When he looked around, he realized he was in the Throne Room and he stood before his father who sat on the throne glaring at him. Loki stepped forward, "Father," he pleaded.

"I will have none of your nonsense, Loki!"

"But I love her! You can't kill her! Please!"

Odin looked at Loki warily, "Why should I trust you? You are the God of Mischief and Lies. It makes no sense for you to love a human."

"I never planned on loving a human or anyone for that matter. I'm not asking you to spare my life, Father, only hers. It's my fault her life has been destroyed and there has to be a way that I can save her." Loki looked at his father pleadingly, "I have never felt this way in my life before, and if I can save her, even if it meant my demise, I would save her."

Odin studied Loki's face, "You really do love this human, don't you?"

"More than anything."

Odin stood up and walked down to Loki, "How about we make a deal, you tell me the real reason why you came back so easy and I might spare your human's life. Might." Odin stuck his hand out to seal the deal and Loki took it. "That's a good boy."

So Loki explained. He explained everything. He explained about the Book of Light and how he was determined to manipulate Odin and Thor. He told Odin about how everything had changed after he had fallen for Rebecca. She had shown him the other side of life and she had changed him. The entire time Odin just nodded contemplating every word Loki had said.

"I'll see what I can do. Maybe I will spare your human's life."

Thor strode into the room and came to a stop at Loki's side, "Maybe is not an option, Father. You will spare her life." Loki stared at his brother wide-eyed.

"Why should I spare her life, Thor? Because of love?"

"You never gave them their chance."

"Excuse me?"

"Even after I had tried to destroy an entire race and I had been banished, you brought me back and even helped me find a way back to earth. Why shouldn't Loki have his chance?"

"You saw what he caused!"

"He was lied to, Father!"

Odin looked at Thor angrily, "And what of the human?"

"She meant no harm. She doesn't know who she is or what she is-"

"And neither do we, Thor," Odin interjected.

"That may be the case, but we can use her still."

Odin looked at Thor curiously, "What do you mean by still using her."

"We let them live. Rebecca and Loki could live together on Midgard. Rebecca can keep Loki in line," Thor grinned, "We know she has the ability to do it. Together they will live and I will pay visits to check in on them."

Odin nodded slowly, "Very well." He turned to Loki, "Because your brother here has made a very convincing case, I will spare the life of your human" Odin paused "and your life as well.

Loki wanted to thank Odin but he walked briskly out of the Throne Room, he was heading off to the holding chambers to cease Rikes' attack on Rebecca. Loki turned to Thor, "Brother, I will never be able to thank you enough."

Thor smiled at Loki, "Would this be enough to get you to forgive me for my arrogance and foolishness?"

Loki grinned, "Only if you forgive me for mine." Thor grinned at Loki and pulled him into a bear hug.

The sound of waves crashing on the sand and the squawking of seagulls sounded in the distance. Rebecca smiled at the memory. Oh how she missed the beach. She could taste the salt in the air and heard the breeze flow softly through the dunes. She felt the sun shine softly on her face. She tucked herself back into Loki and gathered the sheets around her naked body...

Wait what? The last thing she remembered was being torn away from Loki not being snuggled up against him; she opened her eyes and sat up quickly. Looking around Rebecca took in her surroundings, she was in a room made out of all wood, there was a nightstand next to her, she was covered in silk sheets, and Loki was looking up at her happily. "Am I dead?" Rebecca whispered.

Loki smiled at her, "No, you almost did though. But you pulled through."

Rebecca laid back down next to Loki, "Oh. What happened? Where are we?"

Smiling, Loki stroked Rebecca's hair, "We're at the beach you're favorite place. It's secluded so no one will ever find us here." Rebecca smiled. "It was Thor who saved your life. He argued with Odin to help save you. He saved me too. I was trying to convince Odin to just save you because I knew he would never let me live. But Thor managed to convince him otherwise, so guess what you get to be?"

Rebecca smiled, "What am I?"

"You get to be my punisher. If I step one toe out of line you get knock me back into place. Thor convinced Odin to let us live together, you will act as my warren and I will be your prisoner."

"So the tables have turned then," Rebecca grinned and brought her face close to Loki's.

He grinned, their lips were nearly touching, "I guess so," he whispered and gently brought his lips to Rebecca's.

The kiss was soft and passionate. Loki's tongue ran over Rebecca's lip and she parted her lips, giving him entry. His arm snaked around her waist and brought her closer. Rebecca let out a low moan from the back of her throat when their skin touched. She felt tingles all over her body. She reached up and wrapped her arms around Loki's neck. Rebecca nibbled lightly on Loki's lip, he let out a groan of pleasure.

Rebecca broke the kiss and looked into Loki's lust-filled eyes. "I'm ready," she murmured.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. I want you. I want all of you."

Loki grinned at her. He leant forward and pushed Rebecca onto her back, he closed the distance between their mouths and kissed her passionately. His hand traveled down her body from her cheek and down her side. His hand stopped on her breast and he squeezed her nipple. Rebecca let out a moan of pleasure.

Loki smiled and began to trail kisses down Rebecca's jaw, down her neck, along her collar-bone, and eventually he got to her breast, he slowly traced around her nipple with her tongue, all the while his hand slowly trailed down towards her vagina but his long slender fingers stopped just above her clit. Every touch sent shivers down her spine. Rebecca arched her back, begging for more contact. Loki enveloped her nipple in his mouth and at the same time his finger trailed downwards. Rebecca moaned, "Loki, just touch me, please."

"As you wish." Loki's finger dipped inside of her and his thumb stroked her clit gently. Sensations of pleasure rippled throughout Rebecca's body at the touch. "More," she murmured." Loki's mouth trailed back up to her lips where he continued to kiss her as he added another finger. He began to rapidly move his fingers in and out, he could feel Rebecca's body arching, craving more. Loki broke this kiss and really looked in to Rebecca's eyes, "Are you positive you want this?"

Rebecca nodded, "Please." Loki took his fingers out of Rebecca and quickly replaced them with his erect manhood. Rebecca let out a moan of pleasure and gripped onto the sheets. Loki smiled and began to kiss Rebecca, with every thrust of his hip they groaned together, his penis slowly worked its in and out. "Loki, oh Loki," Rebecca screamed, "faster!"

Loki's hip grinded into Rebecca's faster as his thrusts became harder and more rapid. A low growl began to emit from his chest. Rebecca reached up and grabbed the hair on Loki's head. She could feel it coming. It started as a ball of pressure in her head and it began to travel downwards. "LOKI," she screamed as her body shook with ecstasy. At the same time, Loki came. He let out an animalistic cry of pleasure.

Collapsing next to Rebecca, Loki stared into her eyes. They were both panting heavily and smiling.

"You bastard, you planned this, didn't you?"

Loki laughed, "I could only hope you obliged."

Rebecca reached up and ran her hand through Loki's long black hair, "I was so worried, I never thought I'd see you again."

Loki captured her hand and kissed her palm, "Well, now you're stuck with me for the rest of your life. And I'm glad it was you who got stuck with me, I can't imagine having to share a bed with Thor for the rest of my life."

Rebecca smiled and tucked herself under Loki's chin. She closed her eyes. She no longer had any worries. There would be no more troubles, Only her and Loki.
