Raven: Normal
Loki: Bold
ESP: Italic
I oblige her without hesitation. I let her leg down and reach out to place my hands on her hips. I am about to phase into her room when I stop.
"What's wrong Loki?" Raven says with broken breaths.
"I was going to teleport to the bedroom, but I'd rather guide you there myself, physically," I reply caressing her cheek. It's more real this way. Not only for her but for me as well. Magic can be a useful tool in any situation, however it has no place when it comes to intimacy. Raven leans down next to my hip and turns the water off. She runs her hands back over her face wiping away as much water as she can. All the while she is smiling the most delicate smile at me. She in no way seems uncomfortable or scared of what may come. I open the shower door and grab a towel off the rack and hold out my hand for her to help her out. She steps out slowly and I wrap the towel around her and kiss her neck softly as she lowly hums. She wraps it round and secures it between her breasts. I grab my towel and wrap it around my waist and secure it. Gently, I take her hand and lead her out of the bathroom into the bedroom. She closes and locks the door. The only light present is from the full moon outside peeking in through the open window at the top of the room. There is a gentle breeze that moves the trees in such a way that the shadows, once again, dance off her delicate shoulders and reflect off her wet hair. The rush of crisp summer air makes its way into the room, brushing across Raven, giving her goosebumps as she rubs her shoulders and shudders. She walks over to the end of the bed and steps onto it backwards and kneels in the middle sitting on her legs. I crawl up as well and kneel in front of her. I am staring at a goddess, MY goddess. For this god, there is no better feeling.
I take her hand in mine, "Raven, you truly are the most beautiful woman I have ever laid these eyes on," I whisper to her.
"Really, you've been around for a long time," she says with a coy smile.
I gently place my other hand on her cheek, smile and gaze deep into her emerald eyes, "With out a single doubt in my mind. You are truly breath-taking," I respond. No sooner as I finish my sentence, she grabs the back of my head and kisses me hard. Her mouth wide open and electric. I pull back for a moment.
"Are you sure this is what you want my dear?" I ask holding her hands with my lips pressed to them.
She softens her eyes, "Yes Loki,"
"Then I will make you mine," I reply.
I undo the towel from around her chest, freeing her soft breasts, and toss it to the floor. I remove mine from my waist as well and toss it. I lean towards her and kiss her softly. She reaches behind and places her hands on my back holding me tight. I leave her lips in longing as I move down to the edge of her jawline and down to the nape of her neck. She lets out a slight gasp as I roll my lips across the base of her neck and make my way across her shoulder. My hands placed on the tops of her arms kneading at her soft skin with each movement of my mouth. The sound of her staggared breathing sending me deeper under her spell. She pulls back a bit and start to kiss the corner of my jawline. Her soft lips dancing across my skin. She gets to my earlobe and bites it softly. By the gods what a sensation. Instantly, I feel cold chills run down my spine and feel my hairs stand at attention across my body. A moan escapes my agape mouth.
"Do you like that my god," she whispers deviously into my ear as she continues to knead my lobe with her teeth.
Just hearing her voice is driving me mad, "Oh yes my sweet goddess," I hear her chuckle a soft laugh as she resumes kissing my earlobe before moving on to my neck.
She runs her hands down from behind my back and rest them on the sides of my thighs, digging her nails into them slightly. The pain feels good. A truly entrancing sensation. Her mouth leaves my shoulder and she starts to run her lips across my collarbone. I reach up and put one hand on the back of her neck as I open my mouth in agony. I run my other hand down her sides, down passed her hip and cup the inside of her thigh and push it a bit to the side. She obliges without hesitation. My fingers glide down to her nether region, and with a gentle touch I hear her let out a heated moan. She is already so ready. My fingers move about freely across her essence as she continues to kiss me all over, although she seems to be losing concentration since her attention is now being drawn to me playing with her. I feel her body give out as she leans back onto the bed and pulls me with her. My fingers stay where they are, driving her into the very madness she has driven me to. Her moans becoming more defined and prevalent with each passing moment. I resume kissing her sweet mouth, delivering on all the promises I made to her.
A few moments pass when she grabs my hand, interrupting my foreplay. She looks up at me, her face flushed and breathing completely broken down, "I want you," she whispers as she runs her hands onto my backside and wraps one of her legs up over it.
I smile as I begin to kiss her again. I remove her other leg from under me and place it on the outside of my hip like the other. In this very moment, I feel weightless, like I am floating. My goddess is longing for me and I will give her all of me and make her feel the pleasure she so deserves. I position myself as I ease into her. A cry of pleasure has no trouble escaping her soft lips. She feels phenomenal. Like nothing I have ever felt before in all the Nine Realms. No other woman can match or even come close to what Raven feels like. I move into her slowly. My heart is racing so hard right now, I fear it may explode out of my chest. She runs her hands up my back and digs in with her nails. I groan with pleasure at the stinging taking place on my back. I kiss her passionately as we find our rhythm. Our bodies move as one. They are as one. Her moaning is getting louder. The sound of her coital cries sending me spiraling out of control.
"Oh Loki," she cries out. By the gods, she is driving me mad.
"Oh my sweet Raven," I reply as I resume kissing her.
It has now been almost an hour. Raven shows no signs of wanting to end our dance. I feel like I've reached Valhalla. The most sacred of places, but I've found it in this woman. This beautiful woman. My goddess.
She looks up at me with dazed eyes, "Make me yours my Loki," And with that my mind feels like it has exploded across the Nine Realms.
I grab a hold of her sides as I move faster and faster. Her cries are loud and defined as they escape her. I feel my climax welling up inside me as I am sure hers is as well. My body explodes from the inside out into a million pieces as I climax as does she. She relents out loud her cry of ecstasy. I grit my teeth together, tighten my grip on her hips and groan as I arch my back and look up. My eyes are closed and yet I swear I can see stars. I feel all my energy escape me like a supernova and with that I collapse on top of Raven under the weight of my exhaustion.
I can't bring myself to believe what has just happened. I've just made love to a god! It was literally the most mind-blowing sex I'd ever had. Our bodies covered in sweat and radiating such heat that you could probably cook steaks on us. He rolls off of me and I turn into him throwing my leg over him. I run my hand up across his chest as we lie together engulfed in post-coital bliss. What true bliss it is. He truly is a god amongst men. My skin is literally crawling with a million sensations of pleasure. My hair like a wet knotty mop against the pillow as it hadn't been properly dried prior. I hold onto Loki with what little might I have left, which, needless to say isn't much. In that very moment, I felt as if the Earth stopped spinning. Everything feels so still. Even the breeze that had snuck in every so often seems to have ceased. I look at his face and his eyes are softly closed and a gentle smile graces his mouth. I gently touch the side of his cheek and he responds with a soft inhale. He opens his eyes and looks into mine. They're like sharp green arrows piercing through.
"Loki - that was - amazing! I don't even know what to say. I feel like I've had an 'out-of-body' experience. I can't even describe how I feel," I say barely able to form a sentence.
"Raven, I can say the same about you. I have never felt a woman's touch like yours. You are truly awe-insipring," he replies running his hand around the back of my head.
I lean off the bed a bit and pull the covers over us at an angle, snuggle onto his chest, and drift off.
I awake the next morning to the sunlight shining in my face. While normally I would groan the thought but this morning is different. I am so happy and nothing can break that. I look over at my boyfriend and can't help but chuckle aloud at the sight of his face smashed into the pillow with his arm hanging off the bed and his butt hanging out of the covers. Snoring nonetheless. Even in this vulnerable state, he looks godly, strong and adorable; so adorable. I lean up and run my fingertips across his back as I tilt my head smiling. He groans a bit but then smiles because he knows it's me that touches him.
"Good morning my sweet Raven," he mumbles through the side of his mouth.
"Good morning Loki, how'd you sleep," I ask.
He rolls onto his back and peers over at me, "I have never slept that good in my entire life. I felt so at peace, blissful,"
I smile, "Aww Loki, that is so sweet. Me too, I feel so relaxed,"
"It is the truth. Last night was, the best night of my life," he replies as he kisses my hand.
"It was for me too Loki. Now, how about some breakfast?" I say as I lean off the bed and grab a bra and a pair of panties out of the drawer and put them on. I grab one of his t-shirts and put it on. Don't very much care if Alice says anything.
"Absolutely Raven, that would be lovely," he replies as he pulls up his boxers and throws a shirt on.
We head out into the kitchen and Alice is already making scrambled eggs and toast. She looks over at us and smiles.
"Morning you two," she says
"Morning" we reply simultaneously as we giggle.
"I took the liberty of making some food for you guys, since I had no idea when you'd wake up,"
Loki and I look at each other and smile. We eat our breakfast pretty quickly. I look at the time. It's 10am, and I need to get ready for work. I put the plates in the dishwasher. "Thanks for breakfast Alice, it was delicious,"
"No problem guys," she replies.
I give Loki a kiss and head into the bathroom for a shower.
My lady, my goddess, my Raven. I feel myself getting closer to her with each passing moment. I think I can admit to myself that I have fallen in love with her. Yes. I have. I must tell her, but I want to do something special for her. Hmm what to do. No, it must not involve magic. I want to do something special for her on my own. But what? I don't have any money or anything like that. Maybe Alice will help me.
"Alice, I have a favor to ask you," I say as I knock on the open frame of her door.
"Sure Loki, whats up?" She replies as she fastens her earrings.
"Well, I really care a lot about Raven, and I wanted to do something for her this evening to surprise her. I was thinking of maybe making a nice dinner for the two of us, maybe buy her some flowers, you know, something like that," I say with a soft voice.
"Aww Loki, that is so sweet. Yea sure, of course I'll help out. What do you need?" she replies happily.
"Well as I'm sure you know, I have no money. Would I perhaps be able to borrow some from you?"
She pauses and then smiles, "Of course Loki," she turns to her bed and pulls out her wallet and hands me a single greenish paper with a man's face on it with the number "100" on the corners.
"Is this a sufficient amount for what I'd like to do?" I ask.
"Most definitely. Should be more than enough. Keep whatever's left over, ya know, in case you need it later,"
"Thank you Alice. You have a kind heart, just like Raven,"
"Hey, as long as you keep my baby happy then you're ok in my book," she replies with a wink, "I gotta go to work, so have a nice day,"
"You got it," I reply.
She leaves the room and heads on up the stairs. Raven is now out of the shower. She sneaks up behind me covering my eyes.
"Guess who?" she says with a giggle.
My smile beams from ear to ear as I spin around and grab her by the waist, pick her up, and spin her in the air. She laughs playfully as her wet hair spins around the side of her face.
"It's my beautiful girlfriend, that's who," I say as I let her down softly. She smiles the brightest of smiles.
"You are too adorable Loki. So what are you going to do while I'm gone. I mean with Tim in jail, you don't have anyone's butt to kick, so what ever will you do?" she says with a giggle.
"Oh I'm sure I'll find something to do," I reply as I kiss her cheek.
She drops her towel to reveal her naked body as she walks over to her dresser. She pulls out a baby blue lace bra and matching panties and slips them on.
"My Raven, that color looks amazing against your skin tone," I say to her.
She looks down at her undergarments, "Thanks babe," she replies as she walks over to me and kisses me quick. She puts the rest of her work uniform on all while looking at me occasionally and smiling.
"So Raven, would you mind if borrowed your car, I have a few things I'd like to do while your gone," I ask.
She cocks her head a bit and smiles, "What could you possibly have to do that requires my car?"
I walk over to her and kiss her, "It's a surprise my darling. Trust me though, you will love it," I think to her, trying hard not to give it away.
She looks up at me squinting. She smiles and relents, "Sure Loki, but you'll have to drive me to and from work,"
"Not a problem dear, what time do I have to pick you up?" I ask.
"7 pm,"
"I'll be there love," I reply.
"Ok let's get going then," she says as we head up the stairs to her car. I unlock the doors and open Raven's for her, "Thanks hun," she says to me with a gentle smile. I close the door behind her and phase into the drivers seat. I look over at Raven as she places her sunglasses on the bridge of her nose. I like them a lot. I close my eyes and a copy of them phase on the bridge of my nose. Raven looks over at me and smiles, "Wow Loki, you look good in Wayfarers. Very...Human," she winks and giggles.
I look in the rear view mirror, "Why yes, I guess I do look rather dashing in them," I say as I stick the tip of my tongue out through my teeth as I smile. She smiles back. I start the car and back out of the driveway, "Just be sure to tell me where to go, ok?" She nods.
10 minutes pass and I'm pulled over in front of her job. It's noon. The building is very beautiful. A large white building with intricate crown molding, pillars and black awnings. There is a black fenced in area to the side of the restaurant filled with black umbrellas and medium sized white tables. Everything looks so elegant. 'Bella' is written in large script letters across the front of the restaurant.
"Thanks for the ride Loki, so I'll be done around 7 so I'll see you then," she says as she leans in and kisses me. Her tongue dancing with mine inside my mouth. As always she tastes amazing.
"I'll be here darling," I reply as i run my hand down the side of her face.
She gets out and heads inside the black tinted glass doors. Now to get to work. I take the $100 bill from my pocket and phase a copy in my other hand. The only reason I asked Alice for money is because I didn't know what it looked like. I'll be sure to return it to her when I return home. Now to head to that mall I went to with Raven, they're bound to have something nice I can get her. With the windows down, I head down the main strip and see the signs for the Brook Hills Shopping Mall. I think to myself for a moment, that I am growing quite fond of her car. So much fun to drive. Much more fun than riding horses and things of the sort. It's a shame we don't have these on Asgard. I huff a laugh at the thought. I pull off the exit for the mall and find a parking spot near where we went in last time. I get out and make my way towards the entrance. What a lovely afternoon. The warm summer breeze makes it's way through my hair as I run my fingers back through it. By the gods where to begin? I start walking, looking at all the stores as I go. Nothing seems to jump out at me. I can't buy clothes, I wouldn't know what to get her, plus it's such an impersonal gift. I can't buy her toys because she clearly isn't a child. Ahh. I happen upon what looks to be a jewelry store. Perfect. I walk in and look around at their selection. I pretty brunette woman makes her way out from behind the counter. She is petite, wearing a dark blue floral dress with a black coat and black heels.
"Hi there, how can we help you today?" she says with a warm smile.
"Yes I'm looking for a present for my girlfriend. We've been together for a while and I want to tell her that I love her for the first time and want to surprise her with something special," I couldn't very well tell her I met her four days ago. I'm sure that would sound absurd to her. It doesn't to me or Raven, and that's what matters.
"Aww how lovely. Well, was there anything in particular that you think she would like?" she replies.
I close my eyes and imagine her emerald green eyes, "Well she has the most beautiful green eyes I have ever seen, maybe something with an emerald in it, perhaps a necklace,"
"Wonderful! Well, all our emerald jewelry is right over here," she signals to a glass case filled with the green-stoned pieces.
I immediately find the right one, "That one right there, that's the perfect one," she walks behind the counter and unlocks the glass door and lifts it out, "It's beautiful, it would look lovely around her neck," I say as I smile warmly, "How much is it?" I inquire.
"$700," she replies.
"Perfect, I'll take it," As she turns to walk towards the register, I close my eyes and the one $100 bill becomes eight in my pocket. She places the necklace in a black velvet box and wraps a silver bow around it and places it in a black bag.
"Your total comes to $749.50," she says with a smile.
I reach into my pocket and count out the eight $100 bills and hand them to her. She checks each one before placing them in the cash register.
"Fifty dollars and fifty cents is your change today and here is your necklace. I know she'll like that necklace. I've always liked it. You have good taste sir," she says warmly.
"Thank you very much for all your help..." I pause as she has not told me her name.
"Claire," she replies smiling.
"Claire. Thank you my dear. You have yourself a wonderful afternoon," I say as I shake her hand.
"You too sir,"
I leave the jewelry store, very excited about Raven's present. I can't wait to give it to her. Now to see about something else. Perhaps flowers. I head on a ways and come across a place that sells flowers. I figure given the grandeur of her necklace, I'll opt for a simple floral arrangement. I walk to the counter. There is a tiny, young, blonde woman with her back turned to me, rearranging bouquet that is on the back wall.
"Excuse me miss," I say gently as not to alarm her, yet she jumps slightly anyway as she turns around.
"Oh! I'm sorry I didn't see you there hun, how can I help you?" She asks as I can see now by her flushed cheeks, she is mesmerized by the sight of me.
"I was looking to purchase a bouquet of flowers,"
"Oh, who would they be for, a friend, your mother?" she asks. I know where she is going with this.
"For my girlfriend," I reply trying to let her down easy.
Her eyes sink a bit as she is not very good at hiding it, "Oh. Well, what did you have in mind?"
I smile, "Well I'm going to tell her I love her for the first time, and I want it to be very special. I bought her a very nice emerald necklace just now, so I want something elegant but not too opulent as the necklace makes enough of a statement,"
Her demeanor softens at my story, "Aww that is soo sweet. She must be a special girl,"
"Oh yes, she is quite special. She has found her way into my heart like no other has before,"
She places a hand over her heart as she is truly touched by my words, "Well you can just go with the tried and true; a dozen red roses. They're a sure bet to win her heart without going too crazy,"
"That sounds perfect! I'll take a dozen red roses in the darkest shade you have, almost black, as well as a few green roses,"
"What an interesting combination," she says as she grabs a vase off the counter.
"Well she has ink black hair and the most luscious green eyes I have ever seen,"
"She sounds like a wonderful woman," she replies
"She's out of this world," I answer.
It takes her about 10 minutes to prepare the bouquet. It looks perfect. I know she'll love it.
"That'll be $50," she leans forward a bit, "It should have been alot more since the the dark roses are rare, but I was touched by your story so I gave you a break," she says as she winks.
"Wow, thank you so much. Thank you for you generosity," I reply as I hand her the $50 bill left in my pocket.
"No problem hun. Good luck tonight,"
"Thank you so much for everything,"
She simply winks and I head out with my floral trophy. I head to the car, get in, and head home. It's 4 pm. I've killed a whole 4 hours at the mall. Good, that means I'll be picking up my love soon. I pull in the driveway and head inside with my gifts. I am so excited to give them to her I can hardly contain myself. I head down the stairs. Time to get to work again. First I go to Alice's room and return her $100 bill as I will no longer be needing it. I go back to the kitchen and I put the bouquet in the middle of the kitchen table taking the pile of papers and such off and putting them on the coffee table. I put the black bag from the jewelery store under my chair so I can pull it out when she's done eating. Now for our dinner. I open the fridge and smile.
2 1/2 hours go by and everything is cooked and ready to go. I've cooked a juicy steak with red potatoes, green beans and a salad. Everything looks and smells fantastic. I leave everything in to oven to keep it warm. I look around the apartment in search of 2 candles. All I seem to be able to find are large smelly candles in glass jars. Yes they smell great but I'm looking for something simpler. I sigh and with a wave of my hand, 2 white stick candles with silver bases appear on the table. Wonderful. 6:45, time to pick up my girlfriend.
I get to the restaurant and she's waiting for me outside. She smiles at the sight of me pulling up. She gets in and without saying a word, grabs my face and kisses me. Ahh my goddess is here with me now.
"My goodness, someone missed me huh?" I chuckle.
"Maybe," she replies with a wink.
"I missed you too my dear,"
"So what's this surprise you have for me, huh Loki?"
I look at her with eyes squinted and a smile, "You'll see," she smiles back.
We get back home and before she gets to the door, I come up behind her and cover her eyes with my hands.
Damn I guess it's a super secret surprise. Next thing I know, he has phased us into the kitchen, I know this because I can smell food. Delicious food. Ok so he must have cooked. Hmmm. What's he up to. Just then, I hear the sound of dishes moving about and silverware clinking. That's weird seeing as though Loki hasn't let go of my eyes.
He releases my eyes, "Open your eyes my dear," he whispers softly in my ear.
I open my eyes to bouquet of blood red and green roses and a full steak dinner. Wow! He has been busy. I turn and jump into his arms, "Oh my God Loki, this is soo sweet. Everything looks beautiful!" He looks at the table and scoffs and with a wave of his hand, the two candles light up.
He looks back down at me and caresses my cheek, "You're most welcome Raven. I wanted to do something special for you. You have been so sweet to me in this small amount of time. Then last night, you made me feel so alive, giving me the best night of my life. Well, I just wanted to say thank you,"
I look up at him, feeling a bit choked up, "You're welcome Loki, you're very welcome," I reply as he holds out his hand to my chair and we sit down and start eating.
I literally feel like I'm about to pop, I've eaten so much. Everything was so delicious! Wow, he sure can cook.
"Loki that dinner was lovely. I am so stuffed. It was very delicious!"
He looks up at me deviously as he wipes his mouth with his napkin, "Raven, there is one more thing I got for you. I came across this today and thought you would love it,"
I feel a chill come over me as I watch him reach under his chair and pull up a small black bag. He turns to me and hands me the bag. I reach inside and pull out a black velvet box wrapped with a silver ribbon. My heart sinks even more. I make quick work of the ribbon, open the box, and gasp. Before me is a gold necklace with a very large heart-shaped emerald surrounded by diamonds. I look up at him wide-mouthed and bug-eyed. I am speechless. Words, LITERALLY escape me.
"Loki, I-I-I don't know what to say. Th-this is the most beautiful gift I've ever gotten before. I'm speechless," I can't help it at this point. I start to cry tears of sheer bliss.
He reaches for the necklace and places it around my neck securing it. I look down at it and touch it. It is breathtakingly beautiful.
"Raven Cosentino, again, I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate all you have done for me. You truly are the most wonderful woman I have ever met. Despite the circumstances that lead me here, I am glad they happened or I never would have met you. You are truly special to me. *Sigh* I guess what I'm getting at is- I love you Raven," he admits, looking deep into my eyes with the softest of looks.
I feel my heart melt like a stick of butter in the desert. Truth is, I had been starting to feel closer to him as well but I was too scared to say anything.
"Really?" I ask.
He reaches for my hands again, "Absolutely Raven, I have fallen madly in love with you Raven,"
I look up into his eyes and smile, "I love you too Loki,"
He wipes my tears away before wrapping his arms around me. Hugging me oh so tight. Bliss.
