Holly woke to two arms around her, holding her tightly. His arms felt so strong, so protective around her. Her gaze slowly moved up to his face, she got the first look of the peaceful side of Loki- relaxed face, lips parted slightly, long black hair slicked back from the day before. His face had been turned towards hers, his lips resting against her forehead. Gently, she stretched her body to place a sweet kiss on his lips. She was surprised that he had returned after deserting her the night before.

Loki's eyes opened slowly, revealing his soft, tired green eyes. Holly gave him a lopsided smile, which he was hesitant to return. "Are you angry with me?" he tested the waters, feeling her hand on his abdomen.

"A bit… perhaps I won't be after you give me an explanation." She said, sitting up, pulling the sheet tightly around her naked body. "Why'd you leave last night?"

"I had matters to attend to." He said quietly, reaching for her hand.

"What kinds of matters, Loki? Another woman?" she asked, looking down at her hand as he laced his fingers through hers.

"No, of course not." He said, starting to raise his voice. "Why would you think-"

"Because, Loki. I'm used to people pulling shit like this on me." She explained steadily. "Why would you be any different?"

"After what I showed you last night, after I fucked you. You refuse to believe that I want you?" he spat, green eyes hard against hers.

"I don't know, Loki!" she yelled angrily. "I don't know what I want." Holly stood, pulling the green sheet off the bed and wrapping it around her. "You're so secretive about everything you do. You fuck me, you leave. You only come to me when you want physical contact with me." Holly headed for the door quickly, needing to get away from him. "I need to be alone for awhile. Don't come looking for me."

Loki appeared in front of her, grabbing her by the hips and pulling her back to the bed as fast as the god he was. "This time, I'll fuck you and you'll leave. Understand?" Holly whimpered as he pushed her face first onto the bed and pulled the sheet away from her body. Nudging her legs apart, he pulled his trousers down and dug his fingers into her hips with a sharp thrust.

Holly cried out, hands gripping the sheets of his bed tightly as he thrust into her roughly and quickly. "Don't tell me you don't enjoy this." He growled in her ear, fucking her faster and harder. "Don't tell me that you would leave this."

"Loki," she gasped, reaching for his hand on her hip. She clutched it tightly, feeling his other hand run up to grasp her breast. Holly moaned into the sheets as he rolled her nipple between his nimble fingers.

"Do you want me to stop?" he growled. "Or do you want your king to fuck you until you can't move?"

"Loki," she moaned again, muffled by the sheets.

"Answer me!" he demanded of her. She was desperate, grinding back against him.

"I want you to fuck me, my king!" she cried out, lifting her head from the bed. Loki groaned, moving his hips as fast as possible. Their bodies slammed together, skin meeting violently with every thrust. Holly screamed as one of his palms met her ass with an audible 'smack.'

"That," he spat, "was for making me out in your head to be something I most certainly am not." Holly couldn't deny that it felt good to her. She enjoyed this far too much. Her body shook as she grew closer and closer to spiraling out of control. "You will come when I tell you to." He whispered in her ear. "Do you understand?"

"Yes." She said eagerly, biting her bottom lip. Loki continued pounding her, biting her shoulder roughly. Holly cried out in a mixture of pleasure and pain, her neck not being able to hold her head up.

"Are you getting closer?" he whispered menacingly in her ear. "Are you ready to come?"

"Yes," she breathed.

"Yes, what?" Loki growled, continuing to slam into her.

"Yes, my king." She moaned; wishing that she could lace her fingers through his, just to be sure that this wasn't one sided. She had to know that he was feeling the same connection between them, that it wasn't just her having a crush on him. Crushes were for little girls and teenagers, neither of which she was anymore.

"Come now." He growled roughly in her ear. As the words left his mouth, Holly cried out, body shattering around him, collapsing into the bed. Loki finished and immediately pulled out of her. "Get out." He told her authoritatively. Holly stood carefully, legs shaky as she recovered from her orgasm, searching for her clothes. "Now!" he yelled, making her jump and quickly wrap the green sheet around her. Holly hurried out the door of Loki's chambers, not giving him a second glance. The door closed behind her and Holly immediately leaned against the wall, sobs taking over her body. Her body trembled as she lifted a hand to brush her curls from her face. An audible sob left her lips as she pushed off the wall and wrapped the sheet around her, running towards her chambers.
