KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK!

I shook my head, hugging Thor around his waist so he wouldn't get out of bed. Thor chuckled and gently tried to pry my arms off his waist, but I wouldn't budge.

"No, too early." I mummbled against his bare chest. He laughed.

"Isabella I have to get up it may be important." Thor said and I could practically see him grinning.

"What time is it?" I asked blinking away the sleep.

"5:00." Thor groaned. I could tell he wasn't as happy to be woken up. I sat up, and looked around the room. It wasn't even light out.

"This better be good, or I'm gonna gut you with a dull spoon." I yelled throwing my leg over Thor's waist, so I was straddeling his waist. He frowned and grabbed my hips.

"What are you doing?" He asked. I grinned running a hand through my tousled hair. Then I realised what I was wearing. I was wearing one of Thor's 'Midgard' button up shirts, I'm guessing he had put it on me when I had fallen asleep yesterday. Thing was though I was only wearing my underwear underneith, and I was sitting right on top of Thor's crotch.

"I-I was - um too lazy to get out of bed on the other side." I said a blush staining my cheeks. I prayed that it was dark enough in the room that he wouldn't see it.

"Uh-huh." Thor said with a grin. I narrowed my eyes. I hit his chest.

"Shut up." I said getting off and fumbleing my way off the bed. I made my way to the door, and cracked it open. There standing in his armored glory, was Odin himself. He looked down at me and I blushed and grinned shyly. He looked at me his eyes raised.

"Thor would be as kind as to keep your violent mate away from spoons, or other dull untincels." I was suprised he kept a straight face through that. I blushed and looked behind me at Thor. He was laughing, almost hacking up his lung.

"You two are needed in the throne room. Get ready and be down there in an hour, or you won't be the only one threntening people with a spoon." My eyes widened and I stared as he walked away.

"He just- I don't- what?" I said leaning against the door and looking at Thor, even his jaw had dropped.

"I'll take the first shower." I said as Thor said.

"I'm gonna take a shower." We started at each other for a moment eyes narrowed.

"Race you?" Thor asked with a smirk I nodded but held up my hand.

"But first I have a present for you." I said stepping forward unbuttoning my shirt slowly, I pulled it off my shoulder revealing the red lace bra underneith and he was transfixed. I laughed evilly mentaly. I then through the shirt at and made a dash for the bathroom. I was at the door when I felt arms wrap around, and next thing I know I'm being thrown on the bed and the bathroom door is closing as Thor laughs. I couldn't help it, I giggled.

With Thor it was different. I didn't have to pretend to be someone I wasn't. He treated me like a princess and I loved it. He treated me as if I was the only girl in the world. He didn't treat me like a fragile doll. I loved it, and I loved him. I knew for a fact he was the one for me.

I looked over at the door as Thor walked out in nothing but a towel. I got off the bed and walked past him without saying anything. I grabbed his towel from the back and pulled. He gave a yelp of suprise and I grinned. I threw the towel to the side and brought my hands around to the back of my bra and unclipped it, still walking to the bathroom. I took it off and threw it behind me.

"Isabella you with pay for this." I wrapped one around my chest and turned to him. He had grabbed a pillow and it was now over his junk.

"Oh, my darling mate. You think you'll actually win at this." I laughed. "Not likely." With that I turned and walked into the bathroom. I took a shower and did my hair. I walked out of the bathroom to see Thor lying on the made bed. His head was on the pillow and he was in a pair of light colored blue jeans, and a navy blue shirt. He looked over at me, and I blushed. I walked to the wardrobe and grabbed the dress bag. Frigga had gotten it for me and I was finally going to wear it. If it was a war he wanted a war he was going to get. I grabbed my panties seeing as how I wouldn't need a bra, and I made my way back to the bathroom.

I pulled on my underwear and slipped on the mint green and black dress. The dress was high low and started at my upper thigh and went down to my calf. The dress was black from the bottom my ribs up and hugged my curves. Then it flowed the rest of the way. I grinned and walked out of the bathroom as if I wasn't wearing a dress that would make men drool. I walked to my waredrobe and grabbed my socks and black coverses. I pulled them both on, and turned to Thor. He was leaning against the head board and just staring at me, his mouth opened slightly. I grinned.

"Come on we have a minute to get down to the throne room before your father comes after us with a spoon." I giggled. Thor's eyes widened and mine did too, as I realised what that ment. We looked at each other and then we bolted. We ran through the halls, me tripping every once in a while, and my dress trailing behind me.

Finally we were at the throne room doors. The guards opened them for us, we ran inside and Thor skidded to halt right in front of Odin and I slammed into his back.

"Ouch." I muttered into Thor's back.

"You're late." Odin spoke.

"Damn." I said, maybe just a little too loud. Thor chuckled. I hit him. "Shut up, if you would have stopped staring at me we wouldn't have been late." I said punching him in the back and then leaning against his back.

"Uh-huh, but you just had to start talking about starting a war." Thor retorted back.

"Yeah put the blame on someone else when it was clearly you." I said trying not to grin.

"Witch." He muttered.

"Butt." I snapped back.

"Enough!" Odin said laughing. "You were a minute late. Your acting like it's the end of the world."

"Well we would be late for that too." I snapped taking a step back from Thor's back rubbing my nose. I leaned against his side and he instantly wrapped his arm around my bare shoulder.

That was when I heard the laughing. I turned and there stood Rose, Em, and Jay. I giggled and ran to them, and I jumped into Emmett's arms. He gave me one of his famous bear hugs and I could barely breath.

"Air." I muttered. Em laughed and sat me down letting go of me. Jasper hugged me next, he sent his love and joy to me and I giggled. Next was Rose she hugged me tightly.

"We need to talk." She whispered, I nodded and pulled away with a smile.

"So are you well on your way?" Jasper asked with a smirk. I grinned.

"Yeah even though he is a butt sometimes." I said with a serious expression.

"Isabella." I heard Thor warn me.

"See he knows what he is." I said throwing Thor a playful glare which he returned. Now this was the life.

"So why are you guys here so early?" I asked as my energy started to go away.

"Jacob said this is the time to come, and sure enough here we are." Em said with a small smile. I nodded biting my lip.

"Well Thor you better find me a dull spoon cause I'm gonna kill him." I said turning to Thor with a frown. Thor nodded playing along.

"Gonna kill who?" Asked the devil who had cost me sleep. I turned to face him, as he walked into the throne room. I stared at him for a moment, finally I held out my hand.

"Spoon please." The guard beside me looked at me with a weird look, as if he couldn't tell if I was serious or not.

"Oh." Jake muttered taking a few steps back. "I forgot you're not a morning person." I nodded.

"Yup, and guess what." When he didn't respond I contiued. "I'm gonna get you back, don't know when, don't know where but I will." I said, before giving him a sickly sweet smile, and skipping back to Thor. He looked down at me with a raised eyebrow and I grinned.

"We haven't met before." Jasper spoke for the first time to Thor. Thor wrapped his arm around me while Jasper raised his hand. Thor took it. "Jasper Whitlock." They shook hands.

"Emmett The Awesome McCarthy" Emmett said shaking Thor's hand. I giggled, Rose rolled her eyes.

"More like The Annoying." Rose muttered.

"You know you love me baby." Emmett said with a wag of his eyebrows. Thor chuckled.

"Rosalie Hale McCarthy." Rose said with a grin. Then she sighed looking at Emmett. "Mrs. Annoying." I laughed with Thor and Jasper, as Emmett pouted.

"It's a pleasure to meet all of you, my name is Thor." He motioned to his father who was standing by his side. "This is my father Odin." Then to his mother who had stepped up beside me placing her hand on my shoulder with a smile. "And my mother Frigga." Frigga looked down at me sadly as if the introduction had saddened her, and I had a feeling it had to do with her younger son Loki, who should be here by Thor's side, just as much as we should.

"Well since these boys are going to talk war why don't we go have fun?" I asked clapping my hands together, motioning to Frigga and Rose. They both nodded and I unlatched myself from Thor and we made our way out of the throne room. We spent the whole day talking and laughing. I filled Rose in on what happened after they left and she was beyond pissed but she was happy I had found Thor after all the crap I had been though.

Frigga bought Rose some Asgard dresses, making her feel more than welcome here. Frigga was treating Rose like a daughter and I could see Rose appreciated it. I smiled thinking about how I may get to see my big sister a lot more.

When we got back to the palace me and Frigga had food while Rose dark animal blood for a goblet, and for some reason the smell or look didn't bother me. Finally I brought up what had been bugging me from the start.

"I know I may be out of place but what happened between Loki and Thor?" Frigga looked at me and smiled sadly.

"Loki wanted to rule, and he went too far. He tried to take over Midgard. Thor had to stop him, hoping that his brother and my son was still in him somewhere. I blame Odin. He favored Thor way too much and completely neglected Loki. Loki spent most of the time with me. When I had first saw him, when he was a tiny baby, I knew I would raise him as my son. He was so enegertic and fun loving, seeing the beauty in everything. But as he grew old I saw those qualites being hidden. The other kids would tease him because of his small lanky form. His dark hair was also out of place. It killed me to know that my baby boy was being bullyed."

"By the time he was seventen he had closed off entirelly only letting the fun loving side of himself out in my presences." Frigga looked down at her empty plate sadly. I would have never known that Odin was able to do that. I looked over to Rose she looked like she wanted to cry and I understood why. A child had been hurt and it had made him feel alone. Rose who had always wanted a child, never wanted one to get hurt.

Suddenly a gaurd ran into the dining hall, hurried, and out of breath. We all turned to him for an exclamation. Frigga and I stood, as he would adress us both. Frigga being the queen, and me being the future queen.

"Your majesties, the All Father wishes to see you, and the Lady McCarthy as well." The guard panted. "It's very, very importnant." Rose, Frigga, and I looked at each other, before running off. All of us grabbing our skirts. Though I really didn't have to worry about it as much. We ran into the throne room, all of - except Rose - were out of breath. There Odin sat in his throne scepter hand. Thor standing beside him, looking in longing at the figure before them. A man in green, black, and gold armor, was kneeling at his knees chained, with two guards holding said chains on either side of him. I frowned when I saw Odin had his helmet on him.

"What is the meaning of this!" Frigga hisses angerly. Her head was held high, and she was all the Queen she was. I held my head high also knowing I was being looked to for a reaction to the scene in front of me.

"Come to me my Queen." Odin said avoiding the question.

"Not until you awnser my question Odin." Frigga growled angery. "You WILL tell me why MY son is on his knees in front of you!" Loki. This man kneeling was the famous Loki. Youngest son of Odin and Frigga. My mate's brother.

Thor looked up at me and his eyes were filled with longing and hope. Something was going on.

"I have figured out a way for Loki Laufeyson to finish his punishment with out being locked up." Frigga look absolutely outraged.

"He's not Laufey's son he is yours you are just blinded!" Frigga cried.

"He is not my birth son." Odin said with a tone I hated. I saw Thor's, Frigga's, Rose's, and my eyes flash with anger.

"Father." Thor warned angerly.

"Do not take that tone with me. I am the All Father and the boy is not my child he is the child of a monster." I scoffed and Frigga muttered under her breath something about killing Odin in his sleep. Odin hearing my scoff turned to me. "You have no say in this." He growled at me.

"You're right I don't but haven't you torn this family away enough. You may be the All Father in Asgard but you sure as hell am not my father. My father beileve in fairness. He saw that everyone was treated as they should be. He tried shielding me from the things that could hurt me."

"LOOK HOW THAT TURNED OUT!" Anger flooded me and I angerly took steps forward. I almost standing next to Loki who was looking at me confused, his green eyes sizing me up.

"IT WASN'T HIS FAULT I ENDED UP LIKE I DID! IT WAS MY MOTHER'S A PERSON WHO TREATED ME LIKE YOU TREATED LOKI! YOU THINK THAT YOUR OWN SON GOES BEFORE YOUR ADOPTED SON! NO! HE DOESN'T! THEY ARE EQUALS! ALWAYS! A PARENT NEVER HAS A FAVORITE, EVER, IT ISN'T RIGHT!" I yelled at him. "My mother pushed me down she told me to my face how she didn't want me, how I was nothing but a mistake that shouldn't have happened. When I was with my father I felt loved and cared for. But when I stopped visiting I cut myself off from him and I felt myself closing off to the people around me. By the time I was seveten and I moved in with my father, I hated myself and the world. And I wanted nothing more than to kill my mother for making me feel that way!"

"You're to blame for everything he has done, not him, he did nothing!" I said. "You made him who he is. When someone doesn't feel apperiated or that they belong, they will act out, and it's never good. Hell, I used to cut myself, just so I would pass out and have a hour of peace." I said, shaking my head. "He shouldn't be punished for something you did to him." From the corner of my eye I saw Frigga, Thor, Rose, Em, Jasper, and Jacob looking at me with pride. Loki was looking at me his eyes wide with suprise. I guess he didn't expect a complete stranger to defend him.

I looked up at Odin to see how he would act to my rant. He stared at me for a moment, then fell into the throne as if tired and defeated. Then he spoke the words I never expected him to say.

"You're right."
