Authors note:Thank you all for your reviews... you all made my day! ;)
While waiting to the food I remembered what Loki had said before in the piano room, that he wasn't the son of Odin. 'Does Thor know? He never said anything about this'.
- 'That he does not agree doesn't mean he doesn't know'.- Loki replied. I looked at him, his right hand was starting to turn blue and went to my glass of wine, when he touched it, it froze. 'Holly shit!' I put my hand to the glass, touching and admiring it.
- ''Unbelievable-ble''.- I said a typical joke from Ford Farlaine.- ''Now what you want? A pat on the shoulder?''.- I asked jokingly.
- ''A kiss would be nice''.- He quickly replied while smiling mischievously.
- ''Keep dreaming, Loki Laufeyson''.- I said arching an eyebrow. Loki's smile faded.
- ''I have the intention to court you, Yami. That's what I want''.- Loki said seriously, looking into my eyes. I looked at him to see if he was joking but his eyes didn't hide mockery or mischief, were sincere. 'FUCK! He's kidding! Has to be!'
I looked away, my heart was beginning to race and I licked my lips.
- ''I will not fall into your claws, Loki''.- I said calmly without looking at him. - ''Besides, I have to work things out with Joey''.- I finished, looking at him coldly.
- ''And what if the human dies?''.- He asked, his eyes had turned dark and his voice hid danger. I looked at him, afraid, I didn't want anything bad happening to Joey.
- ''I have no hunger anymore''.- I said staring at the empty plate.- ''We can come back''.
- ''Anyway, why do you think what the human had said was my suggestion and it was not something he wanted?''.- Loki continued mercilessly.- ''Do you think he has not realized that you were using him?''
I rose from the table and, with eyes full of tears, I slapped Loki. He looked surprised, touched his cheek where my hand had done the damage.
- ''Who do you think is to blame?''.- I yelled, I forced myself to swallow the tears and closed my eyes tightly. 'No, don't cry'. I breathed deeply several times to compose myself. - ''Let's go, please''.
I heard as Loki rose from his chair and I perceived how he slid the scarf again over my eyes, but not before erasing the trace of a tear that had escaped.
We left the restaurant in silence, walked without addressing any word for a while until, at one point, Loki remained quiet and I felt like he tensed.
- ''Hey, Mike! Today we have dinner first and second''.- I heard a nasal voice saying.
- ''The girl seems to be highly appetizing''.- answered another voice more guttural, behind us.
Without hesitation, I put my hand to the scarf and took it off. In front of us was a fat and ugly man, the nasal voice; I looked back and it was a boy who looked no more than 20 years, both were vampires. In a flash the fat vampire stood in front of Loki and prepared to punch him but Loki stopped him.
- ''Who do you think you are talking about, stupid beings?''.- Loki said, his voice was so cold that could cut.
The young vampire attacked Loki from behind and he managed to avoid it for very little. The young man tripped Loki, enough for him to lose balance, act that the fat took advantage to punch him in the face. I didn't know what to do, I looked around and saw a metal tube in a rubbish bin, picked it up and walked quietly to the young vampire. I picked up the tube and, just as I was going to hitting him, the vampire turned around and slammed me against the wall. I let out a small cry of pain by colliding against the hard surface.
- ''Beware kitten''.- He said making fun of me, as he walked away from Loki.- ''Do you know that who plays with fire?''.- He glued to my body showing me his fangs.- ''Ends up burned?''
At that moment I felt fear, I remembered what that brutal vampire had done to me many years ago and I felt anger.
- ''Well, you know. Apply the story''. - I said raising my knee and giving him a good hit in the groin.
The vampire howled in pain and knelt down. I punched him hard in the head and he fell down. At that moment, the other vampire crashed into the wall at two feet from me. When I turned to look at Loki, he was next to me staring coldly at the young vampire who was complaining of pain on the floor. Loki made appear a green flame in his right hand and threw it over the vampire, which began to scream in pain and turned into dust.
- ''Are you hurt?''.- Loki asked me, staring at the remains of the vampire.
I shook my head and when he looked at me, I turned my gaze. He displayed another scarf, gave it to me and I blindfolded myself.
We arrived at Loki's hideout and he took the scarf off, he was staring at me.
- ''What are you looking at?''.- I asked sharply. He was bothering me so much, looking at me in that way, not menacingly; he seemed to want to know something and not daring to ask.
- ''How did it happen?''. - he asked. I didn't know what he meant. - ''The vampire who took advantage of you''.
I became livid. 'Take advantage of me? Nice way of saying it'.
- ''How do you know?''.- My voice came out weak. Memories began to assail me.
- ''I saw it in your mind''.- Loki answered. Simple.
- ''So what more do you want to know?''.- I snapped on the edge of tears.- ''You want me to tell you how I felt? How much it hurt? How feel now knowing that he's still out there?''.- Tears were pouring down my cheeks and my body was shaking, I do not know whether it was fear, anger, pain or a bit of everything.
I noticed that Loki's eyes stood fixed in me for a couple of seconds until he turned and left, leaving me in the piano room with two guards.
One had a gun, the escape plan formed in my mind. I raised my mental defenses so Loki wouldn't realize what I planned and approached the guard.
- ''Excuse me''.- I said at three feet of him.- ''Do you have a tissue, please?''
The guard nodded uncomfortable, reached into his pocket and in one swift motion, I grabbed the gun and gave him a strong blow on the neck with it. The other guard was coming towards me, I kicked him hard in the knee, he fell down and gave him another kick in the mouth. K.O
I left there hurriedly, my heels made so much noise so I got rid of them. I walked by several underground corridors until I reached a fork. 'Right or left?'
There was a strong but distant scream of frustration. 'Okay, left. Run, run.'
I ran, turned corners, kept running and, turning the last corner, a few meters there was a stairway leading up to a manhole cover, I went as fast as my dress allowed me and went out. 'Keep running, keep running'. I reached a main road, people looked at me strangely and an older man stopped his car. I noticed the cold tentacles of Loki trying to break through my mind. 'Leave me alone'.
- ''Get in the car, girl. Whatever it is. Come on''.- The sir said amiably. I went up without hesitation.
- ''Thank you sir''.- I said, grateful to the man. He was about 50, gray hair and was in good shape for his age.
- ''What happened?''.- he said worried, looking at me sideways.
- ''My idiot boyfriend dropped me off after a date and a couple of goons chased me down the street, managed to steal my purse''.- I lied. Although it was true, very basically speaking.
- ''These guys from today''.- he said shaking his head.- ''By the way, my name is Greg, can I take you anywhere?''
- ''I'm Yami''.- I said, smiling a little.- ''If you could bring me near Magnolia Park I'd appreciate it in my soul, Greg''.
While driving, Greg told me about his work, he was a doctor in Princeton, he was now returning from a major case in the city when he saw me and thought I needed help. When we arrived at Magnolia Park, I thanked him and kissed him on the cheek.
- ''You are very kind for letting a stranger climb on your car''.- I said smiling as I emerged from the vehicle.
I arrived at my apartment and the first thing I did was give me a long shower. I needed to think about everything that had happened. After the shower I ordered a pizza and waited, I called Pepper Potts, who had become the person I was telling my little problems and other things. I could not stop thinking about Loki, his emerald eyes when he said he wanted to court me. 'Damn you Loki, get out of my head. Bastard'.
Loki's P.O.V
She had arrived in time. 'Perfect'. The hotel dance hall was filled with people and she, yet, she shone amidst of all those inferior beings. She came with the human, the human that I had perfectly controlled, and danced with him, a slight hint of anger went through me.
- ''Joey, you are very rare. What happens?''.- I heard that Yami asked the human.
I searched through the human mind, I felt that he was in love with her, yet she seemed distant with him and that made him doubt whether she loved him. That was very interesting. 'I think we should break'.
- ''I think we should break''.- the human said. I approached them slowly, the human turned away from her and she was going to go after him but I grabbed her wrist. She stopped when she saw me, her eyes widened in surprise and held her breath. That made a smile playing at the corners of my lips.
We started to dance, I knew she had a dagger hidden in her right thigh. I leaned her toward the ground slowly and slid my left hand by that smooth and silky leg. I had to inhale deeply when I saw how her cheeks were tinged of pink with shame; I got the dagger and made it disappear. I placed my hand gently on the base of her back and made appear the syringe with the sleeping draft, injected it and she opened her mouth to complain but I silenced her covering them with mine. 'For the nine realms, how can she taste so good?'
I made an invisibility spell and I took her to the old bunker I had found, it was in good condition and that place was very labyrinthic. It was perfect. I softly lay her down on the bed and gently stroked her cheek. 'Sweet dreams,dear'.
I had controlled the minds of 3 guards, were huge and strong to be humans. They kept watch outside with a few security cameras and have prepared everything to make it minimally "habitable". I went to the piano room and looked at the violin I had left for her; I wondered if she would do what I wanted. 'She will not'. I let my fingers flew across the keys of the piano.
After some time, I noticed how she awoke and headed toward me. I smiled as I continued playing, now I knew she was watching me.
- 'Have you never been told that spy on people is impolite?'.- I mentally told her. She startled and thought of run away. I didn't want her to leave. - 'Stay, please'. – I softly asked her.
- 'Please? Shit! Have fever or you've been hit in the head?'.- she replied amused and approached me.
- ''What are you playing?''.- she wondered aloud, seemed she liked the melody I had played before, but I wanted annoy her a bit. I loved when her honey colored eyes looked at me fuming.
- ''It is called piano''.- I answered, spinning slightly to look at her as I lifted my eyebrows in a mockery gesture.
- ''How nice''.- she said sarcastic, sticking out her tongue. I felt a cramp traveling my whole body and I don't not know how I didn't end up devouring her ruby lips.
- ''I don't recommend you to do that again''.- I said in a low voice.
She looked puzzled but looked at the violin, took it and tuned it quietly, eyes closed. I was amazed at her; her movements were so graceful that had me mesmerized. She opened her eyes, stared at me and smiled.
- ''I will not play the violin for you, Loki Odinson''.- She said, as she walked slowly around the room. I smiled wickedly, it seemed she was trying to play with me and I loved playing. 'Let's play!'
- ''Laufeyson''.- I said darkly.- ''Loki Laufeyson, I am not the son of Odin, I am the son of Laufey, King of the Frost Giants of Jötunheim''.- I looked at her, devouring her with my eyes. I felt like her heart raced with fear and how she thought about running.
It was a shame that the game was over so soon, the guards entered the room and I went with them. Leaving one for watch her and the other guard wanted to give me the information I requested. I picked it up quickly and went back in time to see as she sat at the piano and tried to play the same melody that I played before, in silence I ordered to the guard to get out there and I adopted his appearance. I listened as she gave up with melody and changed to another song, she played and sang softly. 'I think you're getting obsessed'.- my own mind said to me.- 'I already am'.- I replied and focused on her.
She abruptly stopped playing, stood up and stopped a few feet, looking at me fixedly and accusatory, she had discovered me, it was impressive. The funniest came when she blushed because her stomach growled for food. 'Adorable creature'. I proposed her a deal that she accepted and we went to dinner, I blindfolded her, she was very nervous, so much that I could not stop myself and scare her a bit.
When we reached the restaurant, she was surprised but also afraid because she doesn't knew what my plans were, not what I wanted from her. That I didn't even know, but I had something for sure and it was that she attracted me.
- ''I have the intention to court you, Yami. That's what I want''.- I told her seriously, looking into her eyes. She looked at me and I could see her surprise. But she rejected me for the human. I felt angry and wanted to kill him.
- ''And what if the human dies?''.- I asked coldly. She looked at me surprised and I could saw the pain in her eyes but it was not because she loved him. She felt guilty. 'How profitable for me!'
- ''I have no hunger, anymore''.- she said staring at the empty plate.- ''We can come back''.
- ''Anyway, why do you think what the human had said is my suggestion and it was not something he wanted?''.- I kept forcing her, I wanted her to admit that she didn't love him.- ''Do you think he has not realized that you were using him?''
I didn't expect what happened then, that she got up and slapped me left me astonished. I raised my hand to my cheek where she had hit me, I could felt the tingle of the hit and stared at her. She was about to cry and asked me to come back to the hideout.
We went outside and gently guide her to the alley, once there I stood still. I felt a mental presence, we were being watched. A vampire came out from behind a trash can while the other was behind us, Yami removed the scarf and the fight started. The young vampire managed to make me lose my balance while he gave me big heavy blow on the head and some white spots filled my vision. I heard as Yami attacked the young but he hit her and cornered her against the wall, making her remind what happened with the other vampire. I became angry.
- 'You've attacked the wrong God'.- I said mentally to the fat, who grew pale by listening my voice in his mind. I got up quickly and grabbed his neck, I heard as the other vampire howled in pain, I smiled sadistically and threw the fat into the wall with all my strength.
I approached Yami, she watched as I summoned some fatuous flames and killed the other vampire. I breathed trying to calm down, I still felt rage in my body and did not want to scare her.
- ''Are you hurt?''.- I asked her, staring at the remains of the vampire.
She shook her head, when I looked her, she looked away. I displayed another scarf, handed it to her and we left.
All the way back I couldn't stop thinking about the images of the vampire that had broken her, as he touched her, as he hurt her. 'That doesn't help to calm you down, Loki'.- I said to myself.
We arrived at the hideout and I took her blindfold off, she looked fine, she had a bruise on her left shoulder, nothing serious.
- ''What are you looking?''.- she asked unease, she noticed I was mulling over something and she wanted to know what it was. 'Here we go!'
- ''How did it happen?''.- I asked her directly.- ''The vampire who took advantage of you''.- Her face became from confusion to livid within seconds.
- ''How do you know?''.- her voice came out weak and shaky. Again the images began to assault her memory.
- ''I saw it in your mind''.- I replied simply.
- ''So what more do you want to know?''.- she snapped, her honey eyes were flooded with tears and looked at me with suppressed anger.- ''You want me to tell you how I felt? How much it hurt? How feel now knowing that he's still out there?''.- Tears slid endlessly down her cheek and she began to tremble.
I stood staring at her, cursing deep inside of me my stupidity. 'Why did you want to know that? Actually you've seen everything, you know what happened, she's right. What more do you want to know?'.- I mentally scolded myself, now I felt powerless. I didn't want her to feel that way, I didn't want to see her cry. That made me feel very uncomfortable. 'Shit'.
I left the room in hastle, not wanting to commit another fool mistake. I sent two guards to watch over her. That was my frustration that I kicked a table and I destroyed it. 'Why I feel this way? Why have to be a human?'I raised my hands to my head and groaned in frustration.
In the distance I heard a sound, very subtly I recognized it, her heels. I turned and ran to the piano room. When I arrived there were two guards lying on the ground. 'NO! She has escaped!' I screamed with rage and I stepped on the head to the nearest guard, scattering his brains on the floor. 'You will not escape'. I concentrated on, her mental walls were up, I tried to access it but she resisted. I sent several projections to the tunnels where she could most likely be, one of my projections saw that a manhole cover was lifted.
- ''Sir?''.- The third guard asked with fear, the one who was not been keeping an eye on Yami. I deconcentrated and got further angry.
- ''Take the gun and kill him''.- I hissed, pointing to the unconscious guard on the ground.
The manipulated guard grabbed the gun and shot without thinking. How fragile was the mind of those stupid beings. They were pathetic.
- ''Now put the gun in your mouth and pull the trigger''.- I said with my voice filled with hate as I turned and left the place. I heard the shot and how the body fell dead to the ground. She would fall into my claws, didn't matter how much she fought against it or how much she hide.
End of Loki's P.O.V
