Chapter 14

Serene watched as Bjorn chased after the falling leaves that fell out of the trees.

They were taking a bit longer to get back due to the childish antics that had ensued.

"Bjorn we need to get back, I'm sure you are hungry," Serene called out as she trailed behind the child.

"Yay food," Bjorn cried out as he raced back towards her.

His long silver tresses bounced as he ran in front of Serene.

She shook her head and slowly guided him to the porch.

"Now Bjorn, there are two men in the cabin, the big one is my shield brother and the other is my mate," Serene said as she kneeled down to hold the child's head in her hands.

"There is no reason to be afraid of them, they are very nice and funny once they get to know you," Serene said as she placed a kiss on his cheek.

"Ok," Bjorn said shyly.

Serene smiled as she stood back up and took his hand.

She opened the door and ushered the small were-bear inside.

"Love I'm back and I have someone I want you to meet," Serene called out.

Shuffling could be heard and soon a second pair of footfalls followed.

Loki entered the sitting area to see his lover standing with a small silver-haired child.

He could hear Thor not too far behind him and soon felt his presence.

"Serene who is the child you brought here?" Thor asked as he moved closer to kneel to be at eye level with the child.

Bjorn's eyes were wide with fear and he quickly dashed behind Serene and hid behind her dress skirt.

"His name is Bjorn and he is an orphan that was all alone in the woods, so I decided to adopt him as my own," Serene said as she laid a hand on Bjorn's shoulder in encouragement to come out.

"It's alright child, he is a big softie," Serene whispered to Bjorn.

Bjorn looked at her then to the blonde man before coming out to greet him.

Thor held out hand and Bjorn looked at the massive hand.

"My name is Thor Odinson and it is a pleasure to meet you Bjorn," Thor said warmly.

Bjorn looked at Thor before he rushed over and circled his arms around Thor's neck.

Thor let out a chuckle as he embraced the small child. "Hi Uncle Thor," Bjorn said as he held on.

Thor looked a little shocked at being called an Uncle but soon broke out into a beaming smile.

He gives the small child another squeeze before releasing.

Bjorn looks over to the other man in the room.

He was tall and lean unlike his uncle. He also had long obsidian hair and sharp facial features.

"I am Loki Odinson," Loki said with a small cautious smile as to not frighten the young child.

Bjorn slowly approached and wrapped his arms around the man's leg.

Loki flinched at the contact before relaxing back.

Loki laid a hand on top of the child's head and brushed the hairs into place.

"Where did you find him darling?" Loki asked as he glanced at Serene.

Serene smiled, "He actually approached me in the woods, he was all alone and Bjorn told me he was an orphan."

Loki 'hmmed' , he stopped smoothing the hair of the child.

Bjorn released his hold before climbing onto the couch that was in the sitting area.

The others soon joined, Thor sitting next to the newest member and Loki siting closer to his love.

"You do realize what he is though? All-Father will expect him to join the warriors once he is old enough," Loki spoke softly.

Thor glanced at the pair confused.

"What exactly is Bjorn?" Thor asked questioningly.

"Bjorn is a were-bear, a northern one to be exact due to his hair color, Were-bear are seen as great fighters in battle because they can become a ferocious fighter, they are stronger then most Asgardians and have special abilities due to the bear in their veins," Serene explained.

Loki raised an eyebrow, he knew very little about were-bear because they are very solitary creatures and can hide themselves.

"They are also seen as protectors of other species, more specifically other animals," Serene continued.

Bjorn looked a little tired as his head started to bob and his eyes started to flutter.

"We will continue this discussion later before we head to that town in need of help on the morrow," Serene said as she lifted the child into her embrace.

Bjorn secured his arms around her neck and buried his face into the crook.

Thor nodded his head as he headed towards the kitchen and Loki stood up to follow.

Serene walked down the hallway until she found a room closest to Loki's room.

She carefully settled the bundle into the bed before tucking him in.

"If you need me I am right next door, do not hesitate to get me, ok just knock," Serene said as she kissed his brow before smoothing his bangs back.

Bjorn nodded very tiredly before succumbing to sleep.

Serene smiled and soon left the room.

Loki watched the display from the doorframe and looked on with longing.

Someday that will be one of our children.

He thought before moving aside to let Serene in.

Serene approached the drawers and opened them to find a shift for bed.

"Love would mind untying me?" Serene asked as she pulled her hair to the side.

Loki smiled and approached her. He laid kisses on her exposed neck and frowned a little when he felt the tension in her muscles.

Loki quickly unlaced the strings and pulled the dress down.

"You are so tense my darling, go sit on the bed while I grab something to help with that," Loki whispered as he kissed her bare shoulder and strode towards the bathroom.

Serene slipped her feet from the dress and walked towards the bed and laid in her stomach.

Loki looked in the cabinets looking for mint oil, he carefully found the bottle in the back and selected it to bring out.

His breath hitched when he saw her naked form splayed out on the bed.

Her hair was fanned out to one side and her skin glowed under the moonlight.

He slowly shed his tunic and crawled his way up the bed to straddle her.

Loki opened the small vial to spread the oil in his hands before he slowly caressed her back.

Serene felt the bed dip in weight when she felt Loki come back and felt him straddle her.

Soon his hands were running over her back to relieve the tension.

She groaned as he kneaded along her shoulders and worked on the trigger points that had formed from stress.

Loki felt a jolt run through him as he heard the noises escape Serene's mouth and smiled, knowing he was the purpose for the lusty noises escaping her lips.

Serene could feel the muscles tense and then dissipate under the strong fingers of her love.

"Oh Loki, that feels wonderful," Serene purred when he reached her lower back.

Loki smirked and trailed his lip over her neck. Serene shivered in pleasure as she felt warm lips on her neck.

Soon his hands trailed up her back to rest on the tender spots on her shoulders where her neck met.

She moaned as he added more pressure to his ministrations.

Loki could feel the blood pooling in his groin as Serene arched her hips when he kneaded her neck.

"Loki," Serene sighed as she felt his hardness press her.

"Nearly finished Serene," Loki replied. He worked into her scalp and made slow tender circles into her skull.

Serene hummed at the feeling of Loki's pads dig into her scalp.

She could feel the tension seep out of her bones only to be replaced by desire.

Serene arched her back and felt Loki stop for a fraction.

She smirked and rolled her hips up again.

Loki growled in warning as he felt her squirm under him.

Serene shuddered when she heard the growl and returned it with one of her own.

In a flash she rolled over pinning Loki to the bed. Loki blinked in surprise and looked up at his lover.

"Let me return my love, my Prince," Serene purred as she kissed him deeply.

The kiss soon turned into heated nips and tugs.

Serene broke away to trail more bites to his neck.

Loki groaned as she re-bites her love mark on his neck.

"Mine," She growled and slowly trails her hands down his abdomen.

"Yours forever,' Loki replied and hissed when Serene squeezed his member.

She licked a stripe over his chest and slowly pumped him.

Loki moaned as she sped up her pace and gasped as she encircled the tip with her wet tongue.

Serene smirked as she continued her motions. She scooted to get a better angle.

She then leaned in and took his throbbing member into her mouth.

Loki just about bucked when he felt her lips encase his heated flesh.

Serene held his hips down as she hollowed her cheeks out and started to bob her head.

Loki moaned again when he felt her tongue slide underneath his member as she took more of him into her mouth.

Serene pumped the rest of the heated flesh as she sucked and licked the needy flesh.

Loki hissed as he felt the grazing of teeth on his sensitive manhood.

"Easy Love," Loki hissed out as she continued using her teeth.

Serene hummed and that had Loki on the edge.

He felt his blood frantically pumping through his veins and a coil form in his gut.

"Serene I'm so close," Loki groaned out as he bucked his hips.

Serene scrunched her eyebrows and pinched his hips so he wouldn't buck.

She released most of the member before swirling her tongue over the swollen tip.

She sucked and licked the purple head as Loki curled his toes.

He felt the roar claw away at his throat before tightening his hands into the sheets as he released.

Serene pulled away and pumped him as his seed emptied onto his stomach.

She grabbed a cloth and swiped away the mess once he finished.

Loki was panting heavily and felt very much like a puddle.

He slowly crooked a finger to beckon his minx.

Serene crawled her way up the bed and settled herself into his side as he encircled her with his arm around her waist.

She nuzzled his chest as she felt him do the same with her hair.

She waved her hands to conjure her shift over her and a pair of breeches over her spent lover.

"Just in case Bjorn needs me," She whispered against his skin. Loki hummed as he felt the pull of sleep.

Serene tangled her legs with his and leaned up to kiss him.

"Good night my Love," Serene whispered before settling back down.

"Good night my minx," Loki whispered back.

Later that night/Early morning

Thunder tumbled outside waking up the mother.

Serene could her whimpers from next door and could hear the patter of feet.

A small knock was heard before Bjorn opened the door and shuffled his way over to the bed.

Serene rolled over so her back was to Loki and opened her arms to beckon the frightened child.

Bjorn tugged his blanket closer before entering the warm embrace of his new mother.

Serene had a small tired smile as he tucked his head into her chest and wrapped his arms around her waist.

Loki shifted so he was now on his side. He pulled Serene flushed to his body as he opened an eye.

Loki drowsily saw a small mop of silver hair cuddled into Serene's side.

He lifted his arm and draped it over the two before falling back into the darkness.

Serene could feel the weight shift and felt the arm encircle her and Bjorn.

Later that morning

The sun filtered through the curtains casting rays over the sleeping group.

Loki opened his eyes and gazed at his love.

She had her head placed over the child's head and her arms holding the cub.

He could feel the pair breathing as they slept on. Loki felt a stirring in his heart thinking of his own child in her embrace.

A mop of black hair tucked into her chest with long eyelashes fluttering, hugging Serene for protection.

He carefully trailed his fingers lovingly over her cheek.

Serene was pulled away from her landscape to the feel of long fingers stroking her cheek.

She nuzzled the hands and cracked her eyes open. She saw Loki leaning on his elbow brushing fingers along her face.

He had a loving smile tugging at his lips as his eyes sparkled in the morning sun.

"Morning,," Serene mouthed to him.

Loki mouthed it back before leaning down to kiss her forehead before slipping carefully out of the bed towards the bathroom.

Serene stroked Bjorn's locks coaxing him to consciousness.

"Bjorn, my child time to get up," Serene called out.

The small child shifted and buried his face deeper into her neck.

"Too early,' he mumbled. Serene chuckled and slowly started to tickle him.

Bjorn shrieked and jumped out of bed. "Go dress as I get ready and then we shall have breakfast," Serene said.

Bjorn sprinted out of the room. Serene shook her head as she walked towards her wardrobe.

She selected a gold simple dress and slipped it on.

Loki exited the bathing chambers damp from a bath and saw his Serene standing with her back towards him as she pulled a dress on.

He approached and wrapped his arms around her.

Serene two arms snake their way around her and felt a nip on her neck.

"Mine," Loki growled playfully. Serene chuckled and smiled looking at their reflection as she looked up.

She caught his gaze, "Yours."
