Epilogue

Cephera sat in the tall grasses in a field outside the palace of Mechanova. It was often she sat out there nowadays thinking of time passed by and about the life she may or may not of had if different decisions had been made. Right now she awaited the hour her daughter would return to her. Her five year old daughter Leeta was off world visiting her father. Since she reached four she spent six months with her father and six month with her mother. Before that she would spend every few months between them. Cephera remembered the letter she had been so nervous to send the day she found out she was pregnant.

'Loki,

I know we both agreed to stay away from one another and see what it would be like to live a life apart. However I have news that you may or may not be happy to hear though it really shouldn't come as a surprise. I am sure you remember the last night we seen each other. There is no easy way to tell you but I am pregnant. And as you are still the only man I've bedded that means it can only be yours. I find it ironic that after the angels finally let us lead our own lives I turn up pregnant but enough of that. This letter was only to inform you of this news. The choice is yours to be a part of this child life or to decline. I await your reply, either of which I will not judge you for.

Cephera'

When she sent the letter over using her sister he answered immediately. They agreed to both spend time with the child but her sister would remain the go between the realms as they still thought living a life separate from each other was best. Cephera couldn't have found herself happier though Seraphina insisted that Cephera was holding out for Loki and that was the reason she hadn't seen other men. But for Cephera her daughter was now her life and she saw no need for a man. She could be happy just the way she was.

Or at least that was how she felt until the last time her daughter had come home. When last her daughter had visited her father, Leeta came home with the news that Loki was betrothed. Cephera heart had taken a drop into a blank void of sadness and she realized her sister had been right. Loki was who she wanted. She had put a smile on her face and urged her daughter on to find out more. And more she got. Some princess from the realm of Nefflehiem was the woman to he wed to Loki and it was an arranged marriage. It brought her a sense of relief to know he had not chosen this for himself but she also felt bad for him. She couldn't imagine having a marriage arranged for her. But the fact remained he was getting married and she would never be with him again. They shared a daughter and for the rest of her life she would have to remember that this was the path they had chosen. It couldn't be easy for him either. Leeta looked like Cephera. Hair, eyes. Everyday he spent with his daughter just reminded him of her.

"The suns going down." Seraphina said. Cephera looked up from her grass picking and smiled. Leeta would come soon. Cephera got to her feet. "Race you!" Seraphina said and took off. The field they had been sitting in was located far into the crystal forest. Cephera raced fast behind her sister and soon they were passing the large lake not to far off the castle boundaries. It was then Seraphina pushed Cephera into the water to cheat in her head start.

Cephera sputtered water as Seraphina disappeared laughing. Cephera couldn't help but laugh as well. Her sister was in good spirits today. She dragged herself out of the water and wrung out her dress. She still had till the sun went down before her daughter would arrive at the Byfrost site, constructed shortly after she found out she was pregnant. With her dress wet she dragged herself along finding it hard to move under the now heavy material. She had time to think and most of the thoughts went back to him. Her happy attitude slowly turning sour on thoughts of what she had lost and could have had. She cursed herself for having been the one to decided they should try living a different life and see if they were meant for something else. Sure in the end he still had not wanted her as his wife but she could have continued being a friend to him and perhaps she would have grown on him.

Cephera sighed heavily and took a breather. She knew her sister was in the fits laughing at home right now. She leaned against a beautiful crystal trunk that was smooth on her back. She always liked these woods. A hand landed on her shoulder hard before she even knew she was not alone. She cried out in surprise and her cry ended abruptly when lips met hers. She would have used her magic to get away but she recognized the lips immediately. She would never forget them. Instinctively she kissed back her arms having spun around his shoulders and her fingers finding his hair. After a moment she also got her mind back on track and pushed him away. He fell away from her a step and looked at her amused.

His greens eyes looked directly into hers as she spoke. "What are you doing?" She said finally realizing how wrong the situation was.

"I was kissing you but as it seems you no longer want that I am merely standing here." He said. She rolled her eyes.

"No I mean why are you kissing me. You're betrothed, or have you forgotten or simply don't care?" Cephera had begun walking passed him. Loki had nothing of it. He grabbed hold of her pulling her flush to him.

"Are you trying to deny you don't want me because I am pretty sure the rhythm in which your heart is beating right now and the flush on your cheeks suggest otherwise." She kept her face from him and her palm keeping him back from her the best she could.

"It's wrong. We said our goodbyes I'm not your last blow out before getting hitched."

"More Midgardian talk." He sighed right before smiling. He moved backward trapping her to another tree. This one was not as smooth as the last and was uncomfortable. "It would seem the princess with whom I am suppose to marry was a well thought of plan between Thor and my father to make me realize to whom it is I actually wanted to be with." He told her his hands playing with the ties of her dress.

"Your father? Since when have you called him father." Cephera looked at him in awe.

"I just dropped a hint that my marriage is not real and that I have come to claim you as it already should have been and all you got from what I said was the fact I now call Odin father." Cephera couldn't help but grin. Loki was always difficult to get to say what he meant straight up.

"So you've come to claim me?" She asked. "What if I say no?"

"Oh I doubt that." He ravished her neck making it difficult not to smile that much more.

"Leeta!" She said suddenly. Loki pinned her wrists back to the tree when she made to move.

"Is with your sister and your father." He assured her and kissed her again. Cephera moaned as one of his hands detached the ties of her dress and moved it off her to her waist. That hand immediately seized her breast and began to play.

"You're an idiot for having let me go." She said between a kiss.

"It was your idea." He reminded between the next.

"You agreed." Cephera said biting his lip teasingly. Loki growled and hiked her up to have her legs spread around his hips. How many times had their encounters began like this. That desperate feeling of need. "Ow." She said suddenly her back hitching on a razor like edge.

"This might be better suited if you just teleported us to your room." He told her. No sooner had he said it, she had done it. The setting light outside was just enough to see him smiling at her before she motioned her finger to him to follow her to the bed. On the way she shifted the dress off her hips and stepped out of it gracefully. She could hear him removing his own clothes hastily. When she reached the bed she bent over further then she needed to and removed her underwear giving him a nice view of her ass and womanhood.

He was quick to step up behind her and wrap one arm around her waist. She gasped when his cock pressed intimately to her sex. She straightened up and he ravished her neck and shoulders. He was not being careful about leave marks. She brought her arm over her to sink into his hair letting out a sigh. "Say my name." He requested biting her ear a moment.

"Loki." She said.

"Cephera." He said to her in return and her heart skipped a few beats before he unceremoniously pushed her to be bent over her bed.

"I apologize but I have waited too long for this." He said and used his own saliva to coat himself before easing his length into her. She was already quite wet simply from anticipation. He groaned a long drawn out sound until he was fully dipped inside her heat. She too moaned at his entrance and her hands gripped handfuls of her white silky sheets. He stayed there a moment unmoving his hands gripping her hips hard. Cephera move herself forward and then back to get him going. "Impatient?" He asked her teasingly.

"I'm not the one who cut right to the fucking." She replied and cried out promptly after when he thrust into her hard. He continued his rough assault on her sensitive sex, his hands never loosening their grip the entire time. He grunted each impact. Finally one hand slid up her back and over her shoulder blades and then into her hair. Once he had a good handful of her long brown and pink tresses he pulled her by them to half stand. She moaned as his other hand cupped her breast and squeezed all the while he thrust up inside her. Her bed post was near by and she curved a little to grab hold of it. He shifted to give her better reach room and when she had a good hold of the handcrafted oak he pounded her. The entire canopy above the bed shook and for a moment. Cephera thought she might loose her mind in the sensation she had missed so much.

His manhandling of her only seemed to increase her libido and she came hard yelling with no care for who might hear her. She barely heard Loki grunting his own release as she was spinning from the high. "Cephera." He said her name in a pant as she pressed herself to the post holding it to steady herself. He had his arms now wrapped around her waist and holding himself close to her also leaning slightly. His face was buried in her hair and it was several moment before he righted himself taking her with him and placing her on her back on the bed.

"What now?" She asked peering up at him her eyes half lidded in lust and her voice soft and hazy.

"I was thinking perhaps a day to catch up on the pleasures we've missed out in." He said wickedly. "And then you would come with me to Asgard, your new home." She smiled back.

"I'd like that." She replied. "So you haven't had sex since I last saw you?" She asked. She found it odd the words he said to her earlier. His face held a look of confusion. "When you apologized you said you had been waiting a while."

"I meant waiting for you. I am a man and I will not lie. I did partake in others these passed five years. Though I doubt you have." She flushed. She hadn't expected him not to have sex. In fact it didn't bother her he had but he was very right about her.

"I haven't." She confessed. He chuckled.

"No matter how many women, nobles or whores alike not one made me feel the emotional pleasure I felt when I had you. I longed for you long after you where gone and even though it took Thor and our father to make me see it, I loved you before you left. The last night we spent together changed me. The thought of not having you each day made my heart ache though at the time I had thought it might have been Seria. I know now it was my own feelings and I regret having taken this long to claim you."

"I love you too." She said. "I will only admit this once but sometimes I'd lie here and think of you. My own hand searching out pleasures I also wished I still had." Loki laughed.

"And which hand was that?" He asked. She held up her right hand and blushed with slight embarrassment. Loki took that hand and kissed each finger. Cephera sucked in a breath when his hand dove between her legs and began to touch her like she would envision him doing late at night when she was by herself. "Like this?" He inquired a sexy tone riding his tone once more.

"No. I could never do it like you." She sighed closing her eyes.

"And now you'll never find yourself having to try again." Loki leaned down and kissed her again. She felt his cock hard and wanting once more, pressed to her hip. She had an odd feeling she would not sleep tonight just like the last time they made love.
