Authors Note: Sorry for the delay... I've been busy. :( But I award you all with a long chapter. ;)
I woke up when someone threw a cube of cold water on me, I was tied up in a chair and in a room that looked like an operating room, had a powerful spotlight pointed at my face that prevented me from seeing my attackers.
- ''You're awake!''.- one of them said.- ''Hey, bitch! Contact the God and tell him to come''.
- ''If he comes he will destroy you''.- I said, trying to see something as my eyes adjusted to the light.
They laughed and a very painful electric shock ran through my body. I screamed in pain and, when ceased, I realized that I was sitting in an electric chair.
- ''Don't threaten us, bitch. We don't fear you puny God, we got something that will leave him defenseless''.- The man raised a gun with a dart that had a blue liquid.- And so we can experiment with him.
- ''What?''.- I shouted.- ''Experiment? You are crazy! You can't...!''.- Another electric shock, stronger than before.
I felt as if my muscles were ripped out and I screamed until I lost my voice. The pain was unbearable and, when it ceased, I dropped my head forward, breathing hard. I realized I was bleeding from the groin. 'That's odd! My period must have come last week... Oh, oh...' Suddenly I became pale, I refused to accept the fleeting idea that had crossed my mind but... 'It is possible that...' The more I thought about that, more sure I was about it and I felt fear, not for me.
- 'LOKI!'.- I mentally shouted.
One of the men laughed at me and his face was of pure sadism as he approached brandishing a knife.
- ''I think I'll practice you an abortion on the fast way''.- he said, ready to sink the knife in my belly.
I started to scream and struggle, the man stood in front of me and prepared to plunge the knife into me. Right at that moment Loki appeared, a very pissed off Loki, he grabbed the man with the knife by his wrist and bent his arm so that the man would pierce the knife in his face. The other men were shocked, there were 4 more.
Loki moved quickly and crushed the head of the nearest one to the wall; one of the other was going to press an alarm button, but before he got closer to the button, Loki gave him a punch that sent him flying across the room to fall on another man; the last man took his pistol and fired at Loki, who dodged bullets and cornered the man against the wall, the man began to shake and beg for mercy but Loki ignored him, took his hand of the gun and made the man fired himself in the head. The entire fight lasted about 10 seconds.
Loki turned and looked at me breathing heavily, his eyes softened and he approached me.
- ''Sorry, I... I…''.- I said with a voice that seemed not mine and I started to cry, don't know why but needed to cry and the tears ran down my cheeks in torrents.
Loki kept coming, I noticed movement behind him and saw how one man was still alive and was going to shoot him the dart with the liquid. I felt like everything was in slow motion, I looked at Loki, the man shot and I opened my mouth to tell Loki... But it was too late, the dart went through his body, piercing the wall and Loki's form flickered, I was looking stunned. 'What? It is a projection!' I turned my eyes to the man and saw the real Loki behind him. Loki took the man's neck and broke it with a quick and furious movement.
Loki came with hurried step towards me, he loosed the straps and picked me up gently.
- 'I'm very sorry for have taken so long but I couldn't feel clearly where you were'.- he mentally said, sounding worried and regretful as he held me against his body.
- 'They wanted me to call you, I tried to don't think about you and block communication. Didn't want you to get hurt'.- I said, ducking my eyes.
He sighed and we appeared in my house, Loki sat on the couch with me in his arms, he hugged me tightly and buried his face in my neck.
- 'Don't do it again, I almost go crazy. Those humans could never dream of hurting me physically, but they can hurt me if they hurt you'.- he said in an almost broken voice.
I shuddered, I lifted his face and saw that his eyes shone with unshed tears. I kissed him, he growled softly and kissed me in a passionate way. I could feel his need through me and I almost let myself go but I remembered about my possible pregnancy and I separated, looking at him with frightened eyes.
His expression went from confusion to understanding and looked at my belly, laying a hand there. He closed his eyes and remained so for several minutes without saying anything, I just waited nervously. A deep relief flooded me from Loki, he sighed and a smile graced his beautiful features.
- ''All is OK. Their sparks of life are intact''.- He said looking at me while his smile became more pronounced. 'Thankfully'.- He thought, relieved.
- 'You knew this?'.- I asked staring at him with a frown.
- 'I guessed, especially since the conversation I had with Thanos. But didn't have chance to prove it'.- he replied truthfully.
I bit my lip. 'Wait... Did he just said sparks of life? Too much information... He seems to be happy with this but...'
- 'But nothing, min elskede'.- He mentally told me.- 'I'm the father and I won't deny ever of what is mine'.
- 'But I'm human, you hate humans'.- I replied without looking at him.
- 'You are going to be the mother of my children and you are bounded to me, you're not a normal human'.- he stared at me and stroked my hair. - 'Did you think I would reject our children for being born from the womb of a human?'
I nodded, somewhat embarrassed and he laughed softly while picking me up in his arms.
- 'I would never reject anything that were coming from you, dear'.- he said as he drove me to the bathroom and sat me on the edge of the tub.
I absentmindedly ran my hand through my belly and he opened the faucet of the bathtub. 'He won't reject the baby and neither do I'. I gulped compulsively and looked at him.
- ''I'm going to be a mothe'r'.- I whispered weakly.
- ''We are going to be parents''.- he replied, kneeling in front of me, smiling in a way that made my heart skip a few beats.
Then a guilty thought crept into the brain of Loki, was faint and quick thought but I separated from him.
- ''Could you have saved Steve?''.- I asked shocked.
- ''I tried, but I hesitated and didn't get in time''.- he replied surprised and hurt.
- ''You hesitated?''.- I shouted. Getting up and moving away from him.- WHY?
- ''He was still seeing you in-in...''- Loki began to explain but I didn't let him continue.
- ''Because he saw me attractive you allowed Thanos to kill him?''.- I whispered and then raised my voice.- ''Everything you touch or is close to you dies frozen, Loki''.
Loki closed his eyes and I felt the immense pain that I caused with these words, yet I said something else.
- ''I want you to get out and leave me alone. Right now!''.- I said in a broken voice, choking back tears that struggled to get out.
This time I felt like a dagger of ice ran through my heart; that had been the effect of my words in Loki.
He looked up at me but I avoided his eyes and looked toward the door, he began to feel desperate but didn't want to provoke me more damage so he disappeared from there. I knew that he hadn't gone very far but at least now I was alone.
My knees failed me and I began to cry uncontrollably on the floor. 'Steve might still be alive if that idiot wouldn't have his damn inferiority complex'. Some nausea began to assail me and I managed to reach the toilet before the first retch made me vomit violently, I stood there for quite a while until I got a bit calm.
I stood up trembling, I went to the sink and wet my face and neck slightly. 'Hell, a zombie!' My zombified reflection gave me back a slight grin that resembled a smile. I hesitated to take a shower or sleep directly, I decided to clean me a bit with a damp towel and I went to bed.
I spent hours trying to sleep but only got a restless and nervous half-sleep. A new wave of nausea made me get up quickly, sweaty and dizzy, to the bathroom.
Several minutes later, my mind kept wondering if everything would be fine with being growing inside me, I thought about Loki and my eyes involuntarily filled with tears. 'Don't cry and go to the fucking hospital at once'.- my conscience yelled me.
So I dressed poorly as I could between sickness and picked up my car. I drove hurriedly, lucky that was very late and traffic was sparse. A retch made me stop in the middle of the Gran Via, I opened the driver door without taking off my belt although I controlled the urge to vomit with great difficulty.
- ''Hey, are you okay?''.- a female voice asked me.
I glanced and saw a brunette woman in her 40s, the owner of the voice, she was approaching me.
- ''Yes, I don't get along great with pregnancy''.- I explained with a slight smile and her face changed, first became surprised and then one of craving.
- ''Oh, you don't know how much I like pregnant women''.- she said, smiling sadistically.
I looked further and noticed her paleness, the lack of brightness in her eyes. 'Shit, a leech'. I turned around to grab the gun from the glove compartment but she was faster than me and grabbed my wrist, wringing it.
- ''What were you going to pick?''.- she asked with a purr. I punched her with my free hand on the face but she didn't let go of me, she wrung my wrist further and I screamed in pain.
At a time I had the vampire before me and the next, there was only a pile of ashes and Loki behind them with his face contorted by anger.
- ''Where do you think you were going?''.- he hissed me.
- ''At the hospital, I don't feel well''.- I whispered without looking at him. 'Again? Does he got me from a fucking rush again?'.- I thought with disgust myself.
Loki's expression softened and dropped to his knees before me.
- ''Min elskede''.- he whispered softly extending a hand to touch me but I backed away. I felt the twinge of pain that my reaction caused.- ''I'm sorry, I'm sorry to be an idiot with an inferiority complex but I can't help it, I can't stand having rivals''.- looked straight at me placing his abandoned puppy face.
I remained quiet trying not to fall into his claws, it was so fucking difficult but I was sick of all this. He had nothing to fear from me, I wanted to be with him, I had bonded to him, dammit. To be together forever. 'I don't feel nauseous now...'
- ''Nausea and your discomfort are caused by the bond''.- he continued smoothly.
- ''What has the bond to be with all this?''.- I asked, looking into his eyes. Only with that my heart quicken and hurt at the same time.
- ''The bond connects us and our children know this, but if they notice our disagreement and our departure that causes stress and pain to them''.- he said very softly.
My eyes went wide and they began to fill with tears, put my hand to my belly and I bit my lip.
- ''Ours?''.- I asked amazed. Loki nodded slowly and I stood silently watching him.
- ''Indeed, min elskede''.- He said, smiling slightly.- ''On your belly you're carrying our two children''.
At that time guilt hit me and I felt a knot in my throat that almost made me stop breathing.
- 'So, am I hurting our children?'.- I said at verge of tears.
I noticed Loki's hands around me, hugging me and his face looking at me just a few inches.
- ''No, min elskede. It was me who caused you harm''.- he said looking repentant.
I hadn't realized that my nausea had ceased since Loki had appeared and now that he was so close, I even felt good again. I sighed and let Loki embrace me for a while.
-'' I'm sorry''.- he whispered against my hair.
- ''You can't undo the past''.- I whispered and I separated to look at him.- ''Okay, we go home?''
He nodded, kissed me gently on the lips and got in the car with me. 'Back home and in a few hours I was going to arrange so to see Kari'.
Loki's P.O.V
They had buried the body in the mausoleum and we were leaving when Thor motioned me to approach him. I looked at Yami and said that I would be with her shortly, I felt her sadness when I moved away from her and I almost return but felt an obligation to talk to Thor.
- ''Brother''.- he started looking at me calmly.- ''I'm sorry I doubted you''.
- ''About what?''.- I asked raising an eyebrow. I knew exactly what he meant but I wanted to hear it.
- ''About Yami''.- he said ducking his head.- ''No doubt you care about her, I just feared that you weren't able to care of her properly, humans are very weak, as you know, but I was wrong''.- he took a breath and turned to look at me.- ''Sorry''.
I tried not to smile arrogantly, I looked for a few long seconds until I finally spoke.
- ''It would be nice that you remember that the next time you doubt about how I treat my human''.- I said quietly.
- ''Brother, I want to make peace with you. I know things will never be as before but could not we try, at least not be hostile?''.- he asked me, looking very sad.
I took a deep breath through my nose, I hated when he placed that stupid face that made my worst instincts come to light. It seemed that I hadn't overcome my resentment towards Thor... I counted to ten to keep a cool head and not saying anything too nasty, I opened my mouth and, at that time, I noticed an empty feeling in my head and I froze.
- ''Yami''.- I whispered spinning to where I left her. 'She's not!' I summoned my Asgardian armor.
- ''What happens Loki?''.- Thor asked, tensing at my sudden change.
- ''Yami's not here!''.- I yelled, looking at him furious.
The others came when they heard me and when I told them I didn't felt Yami, they quickly were underway, looking for her but I knew it was useless.
- ''They've taken her''. - I said softly, I felt sick and dizzy.
Thor put his hand on my shoulder and I turned my gaze on him.
- ''We'll find her and we will make pay those who have done so''.- he said very seriously.
I just nodded absently, I felt lost and grief invaded my essence much more than anger or desire for revenge and this was something that never had happened. 'Min elskede, where are you?' I got nothing, just silence and I had to suppress a cry that wanted to escape my lips.
- ''There is a security camera''.- Clint Burton said.- ''It is very likely that there'll be more and one may have recorded what happened''.
- ''Okay''.- Stark said pulling out his cell phone from his pocket and starting to do something.- ''JARVIS, do you have network? Search for Yami''.
- ''Yes, Mr. Stark''.- I heard the voice of the artificial intelligence, as Stark had called it.- ''Found, the recording is from 5 minutes ago''.
I hurried over to Stark, on his mobile I could see clearly to Yami in front of a mausoleum while a man approached her from behind, she tossed but left unconscious and another man helped the first to carry her.
I looked away from the screen, feeling anger and clenched my fists to not start smashing things around me.
- ''Where is that mausoleum?''.- I asked through clenched teeth.
- ''Approximately 120 feet to the northwest''.- answered the artificial intelligence.- ''I have marked the exact spot on the map''.
We headed that point and I couldn't help having an uneasy feeling, something was telling me that I would find something at getting there. Indeed, as we approached I saw Yami's black scarf tied to one of the graves and, I didn't wait to walk the rest of the way, I appeared in front and I realized that there was a small piece of paper on the scarf.
"To the false deity: You should hurry to save her before we kill her."
A shiver ran down my spine, I gritted my teeth and I slightly lost control making the note burst in green flames.
The others were close but maintained distance, they were afraid of me. 'You do well, now isn't very wise to be near me'. I couldn't stand staying in that place another second and I disappeared from there and showed up at the top of the Empire State, I didn't want to attract the attention of any human who happened to see me so I surrounded myself with an invisibility spell.
I sat there for a long time, looking to the horizon without being able to think of anything, I closed my eyes cursing my incompetence and suddenly I felt Yami's mind. I opened my eyes and got up hurriedly, but as fast as I felt her clearly she had blocked me. I still felt her, but couldn't tell where she was or if she was okay. 'Shit! At least she's alive and the little that I felt her was towards the harbor'.
I teleported to the harbor and walked trying unsuccessfully to locate her until her cry crossed my mind like a cold flash. I knew where she was and that she was scared, hurt and in trouble. Now I was really furious. 'They won't escape'.
I appeared just in time, a foul human was preparing to stick a knife in her but I avoided it, and, with the human's own hand, I sank the knife in his face. There were 4 more human, all of them, frightened by my sudden appearance.
With one fluid movement I smashed the head of the nearest against wall, another ran away to press the alarm button. 'You aren't going to achieve!' Before he touched the button, I punched him with all my strength, I felt his broken bones and torn muscles, I had the good fortune that I sent him flying against other human, thus leaving both out of action. The last human pulled out the gun. 'Naive'. He shot several times until he finished his charger, he managed to recharge the gun but I cornered him against the wall and the man looked at me with panic beginning to babble for his life. I looked at him coldly, grabbed the hand holding the gun without ceasing to looking at him for a moment and I fired to his head.
I turned to Yami and breathed in relief, I approached and she stammered an apology as she cried in a broken voice. I sensed movement behind me, I saw that Yami's pupils were dilated with surprise and fear. I teleported behind the human while I left a projection just where I was seconds before, the man shot and a dart crossed my projection.
I grabbed the man's neck and with one swift move, I ended up with his miserable life. I hurried over to Yami and I picked her up.
- 'I'm very sorry for have taken so long but I couldn't feel clearly where you were'.- I mentally told her. I had been so worried about her and I felt so powerless at being unable to save her before.
- 'They wanted me to call you, I tried to don't think about you and block communication. Didn't want you to get hurt'.- she answered, lowering her gaze.
I sighed and we appeared on her house; I sat on the couch hugging her tightly and buried my face in her neck.
- 'Don't do it again, I almost go crazy. Those humans could never dream of hurting me physically, but they can hurt me if they hurt you'.- I said with choked voice.
Now that I had her in my arms I felt peace but also terror for losing her again.
She lifted my face and kissed me, the contact with her lips produced a discharge of lust and desire within me. I grunted softly and kissed her back more passionate but she pulled away from me. I stayed confused a split second for her reaction until her thought derived in her concern and I understood. 'Ouch! That's true! I didn't tell her anything about Thanos insinuated at the battle'.
I looked at her belly and placed my hand there, concentrating on searching for something unusual on her and I noticed something, it was very subtle at first but the more I focused more clearly were, two small vital sparks, glowing strong. I felt a relief so deep that I couldn't help a smile.
- ''All is OK. Their sparks of life are intact''.- I said smiling widely at her. I had a woman who loved me and two small in way and everything was fine. 'Thankfully'.- I thought animated.
- 'You knew this?'.- she asked me, looking puzzled.
- 'I guessed, especially since the conversation I had with Thanos. But didn't have chance to prove it'.- I answered truthfully. I noticed how her head tried to accept the information and how she doubt.- 'But nothing, min elskede. I'm the father and I won't deny ever of what is mine'.
She replied but I managed to convince her and I carried her to the bathroom, I hadn't realized that she was stained with blood. Besides a relaxing bath would be nice for us both, although relaxing baths together never remained relaxing for long.
- ''I'm going to be a mother''.- she weakly whispered.
- ''We are going to be parents''.- I made it clear, I wanted her to understand that fact completely. I knelt in front of her as I smiled her and when she smiled back, I had a small flash of guilt: Thanos lifting the foot, I doubting whether or not intercede and thinking that he was attracted to my human; when I reacted it was too late, he was already dead but that didn't stop the little pang of conscience in the cemetery, I had to ask forgiveness in front of his coffin in a whisper...
- ''Could you have saved Steve?''.- Yami asked shocked.
- ''I tried, but I hesitated and didn't get in time''.- I replied surprised and hurt.
- ''You hesitated?''.- she asked loudly. She rose and walked away from me.- ''WHY?''
- ''He was still seeing you in-in...''- I tried to explain what had happened but she didn't let me continue.
- ''Because he saw me attractive you allowed Thanos to kill him?''.- she whispered and then raised her voice.- ''Everything you touch or is close to you dies frozen, Loki''.
I felt so much pain at those words that I had to close my eyes.
- ''I want you to get out and leave me alone. Right now!''.- I heard her say, this time her voice cracked with tears.
A dagger of ice, cold and painful pierced my heart. I raised my eyes to beg her to reconsider that, to asking her to let me be with her but she turned her eyes toward the door. Desperation struck me, I was hurting the only being in this universe that I cared about and, if I continued here I was going to continue harming her, so I went. I didn't go far away, just appeared on the roof of the same building, I wasn't going to get away from her even if they sent an army against me.
I listened as she began to cry and thought that I had an inferiority complex, which was rather likely. I laughed ironically and without humor. I began to notice his distress, I knew the cause of the distress but she had cast me out of her side, I had to growl lowly to avoid coming back and I sat on the floor.
To distract myself I focused on the conversation I had with Thor before Yami was abducted, from who I would leave that for my to-do list but with priority because that wouldn't happen again nor even if with this I unchained Ragnarok at Earth.
After a while she relaxed and managed to fall asleep, so I took advantage and rested for a while too.
I woke up startled noticing the Yami's fear. 'What the hell...?' I sat up immediately and, noting that she wasn't around, I felt fear too.
I appeared behind a vampire who held her by the wrist, I summoned silver dagger in my hands and crossed the chest of that unclean being. I looked at Yami, she was in a car with circles under her eyes and very pale, when I saw her I started to calm down yet I was still very angry.
- ''Where do you think you were going?''.- I asked through clenched teeth.
- ''At the hospital, I don't feel well''.- she said without looking at me. I listened as reproached that I had saved her again and that cleared the rest of my anger, I dropped to my knees before her. I'll always save her from danger, I was at her mercy.
- ''Min elskede''.- I whispered, holding out my hand to touch her but she turned away from me, I didn't know if it was fear or rejection, but when she did a small sliver of pain gripped my heart.- ''I'm sorry, I'm sorry to be an idiot with an inferiority complex but I can't help it, I can't stand having rivals''.- I told her in sincere regret.
She was maintaining her position away while her mind was spinning to the reasons why she was on my side, why she had bonded to me and she realized that she no longer felt sick.
- ''Nausea and your discomfort are caused by the bond''.- I told smoothly.
- ''What has the bond to be with all this?''.- She mentally asked me, looking at me for first time since the discussion. Looking these honey colored eyes I felt like my heart stopped slightly, skipping a few beats. 'By Yggdrasil, this woman has reached me to the core!'
- ''The bond connects us and our children know this, but if they notice our disagreement and our departure that causes stress and pain to them''.- I said very softly.
Her pupils widened in surprise but at the moment, her eyes began to fill with tears as she put a hand on her belly.
- ''Ours?''.- she weakly asked. I nodded.
- ''Indeed, min elskede''.- I said while a slight smile grew on my lips imagining what in a few months we would have in our arms.- ''On your belly you're carrying our two children''.
- 'So, am I hurting our children?'.- she said at verge of tears, assaulted by guilt.
Her guilt made me feel guilty too, she wasn't the cause of all this, I was. I passed my arms around her and looked at her only a few inches.
- ''No, min elskede. It was me who caused you harm''.- I said repentant.
Finally she calmed down, everything went back to being as before and we returned home.
