And so we have come to the end of this story. What a ride! I'd like to thank those that read and reviewed this story, and especially Imogen74 for all her help when I would find myself stuck. :) If you haven't checked it out already and would like to partake of another journey with me and Lokane, I just started a new story entitled "Tabula Rasa".

Chapter Twenty-six

"Mmmm…" Jane hummed sleepily when she felt Loki pull her against his body the following morning. She shifted slightly, nestling into him. Her eyes had drifted shut again when she felt Loki splay his hand over her belly and then drift his hand lower and lower still.

She bit her lip when he found her core and then lifted her leg up and back over his leg. His fingers went back to her nub and one long finger found its way inside her. Soon, she felt his cock at her entrance and slowly he pushed his way inside her.

"Good morning, darling," he murmured.

"Good morning," Jane breathed.

"How did you sleep?"

"You mean when you let me?"

His laugh was low and deep. "I recall you woke me up a time or two as well."

"You have the stamina of a God," she murmured and shut her eyes. He was taking her higher and higher.

"And you of a Goddess," he whispered. He was close, she could hear it in his voice.

"Loki," she moaned and he answered her plea by reaching between them to stroke her nub. She pushed back against him. "Harder, please."

Instead of complying with her request, he slipped out of her completely. Before she could protest though, he flipped her onto her back and pinned her to the bed. She smiled up at him and then gasped when he filled her again. He watched her intently, mesmerized, it seemed, by her. His hands entwined with hers and he began to pound himself hard inside her.

Jane arched her back and cried out, "Loki!" when her orgasm hit. Loki stroked in and out once, twice, three times, and then held himself still as he cried out and came hard inside her. He collapsed to the side of her body so as to not crush her and then pulled her into his arms.

He smiled down at her, a bit dazedly, and stroked a hand down her back. "This is my every dream come true." A beat. "Well, almost every dream."

She smiled. "What are your other dreams?"

"World domination."

She laughed. "Of course."

"With you by my side of course."

"Would I have to just sit there and look pretty?"

Now he laughed. "Would it be possible for you to just sit there without saying a word?" She hit him playfully and he grinned. "No, I would imagine as my other half—"

"Better half."

"—You would have plenty to say on how I ran things."

"I think I'd have plenty to say before the whole world domination thing took place."

"You would—"

Loki broke off when there was a knock at his front door. He turned his head slowly in the direction of the sound and glared. "Who the bloody hell is knocking on my door?"

"Right? Did they not get the 'Loki and Jane will be going at it like bunnies' memo you sent out?"

He barked out a laugh and then stopped when he heard, "Loki, I know you're home!"

"Bloody hell. It's Thor," Loki grumbled. He climbed out of bed and grabbed a pair of pajama bottoms. He pointed at Jane. "Stay there and stay naked."

Jane decided to at least pretend to comply until he walked out of the room. Then, she got up and quickly threw on the pajamas she had never once put on or taken out of her duffel bag. Running a brush through her hair quickly, she padded down the hall to where Loki and Thor were talking at the door.

"I don't want breakfast," Loki said.

"Did someone say breakfast?" Jane said from behind him.

Loki turned and glared at her. "I thought I told you to stay put."

"Yeah, you did." She came up beside him and smiled at Thor.

"Have I interrupted something?" Thor asked.

"Yes," Loki said at the same time Jane said, "No."

Thor cleared his throat and reddened. "I uh, just came over to invite Loki out to breakfast, but I see that you two are busy—"

"No!" Jane said hurriedly and then shook her head and looked up at Loki. "Doesn't breakfast with your brother sound nice, Loki?"

Loki looked down at her and sighed. "Fine."

She grinned and kissed his cheek. "Are you going to invite your brother in?" she prompted.

Loki scowled at his brother. "I wasn't planning on it, but I suppose I have to now."

Thor just shook his head and rolled his eyes and stepped inside. "Of course you are joining us, right Jane?" he asked.

Jane's stomach rumbled an answer and she grinned and patted it. "It would seem so. I'm just going to shower really quick."

Loki watched her go longingly and then turned to his brother. "You always did have impeccable timing."

Thor just smiled. "It's good to see you too, Loki."

"I'm not sure if I want to subject myself to another dinner," Loki told Thor over breakfast. "I'm rather over the whole thing already."

Jane sipped her orange juice and opted to stay out of this discussion. She would give Loki her two cents later, but for now she felt it best to let the brothers have the floor. She thought it was kind of crappy of Odin to send Thor as his emissary to invite Loki to dinner. She wondered if Odin was aware of how transparent he really was about having to have all the power and control in the family. She wondered if he knew how weak it actually made him look to send someone else to do his bidding. She also wondered when Thor would tell his father to do his own dirty work.

"Forget Father," Thor said, "Come for Mother. And me."

Loki looked startled by that. Jane wasn't sure why exactly, unless he thought Thor's only motivation for inviting them out to breakfast was so he could invite Loki to dinner on Odin's behalf. Jane knew better though. What he easily could have done in a phone call, Thor had done personally because he wanted to see his brother.

While Jane didn't want Odin to make Loki feel like crap about himself, she did perhaps stupidly hope that Odin would get his head out of his ass and act like a Father and not give Loki any more grief.

"Fine," Loki said on a sigh. "For Mother… and you."

Thor and Jane both beamed at him and Loki rolled his eyes. When the check came, Loki pushed it to Thor. Thor arched a brow at him and Loki smirked. "You did ask us out, remember?"

Jane started to reach for the bill when Thor grabbed it and chuckled. "So I did."

The trio walked back to Loki's apartment, Loki holding Jane's hand the whole way. He felt…proud. Dare he say, even a little smug. He'd gotten the girl. It had taken a long while, and it had been a bumpy road, but he'd gotten what he'd wanted from the moment he'd laid eyes on one Jane Foster: her love.

She smiled up at him as they walked together behind Thor and he smiled down at her and leaned over to kiss her forehead. Thor was rambling on about something that Loki was paying no attention to. It didn't seem Jane was listening either.

"I love you," Loki mouthed to her.

"I love you, too," she mouthed back.

The sun shone down on them and Loki felt his heart swell with joy. He could see it all now, the future that awaited them. First, they would move in together. Then he'd ask her to marry him. After a few years of being married they would have a few children. He could see it clearly and he knew that it would be so. Jane moving into his side and wrapping her arm around him confirmed it for him. They were in this together, finally, and as such, they would have their happy ending.

The End.
