Loki decided to see Thor and the others about what they planned to do next. He wasn't used to really participating in conversations with most of them though, but considering Darcy was still there he would need to know everything. If he could have only known all of this were to happen back when it was still Thor's day to become king, he would have never allowed the Frost Giants into Asgard. Darcy did need to go back to Midgard for her own safety but who's to say the Frost Giants wouldn't just go there after they were done with Asgard?

''Loki...you must let her leave. That man with the bow and arrow has looked around and there are far too many of them to ensure her safety, they remain at the prison now.'' Sif said as he walked through walking up to him, he gave her a glance and then looked at the others. They all looked agitated and wary that Darcy was still here.

Of course she was the weakest being on all of Asgard right now and she didn't even have training. Loki had been taught how to fight in battle without magic since he was around eight years old and Darcy wasn't used to any of that, he imagined her with them as they faced all of the Frost Giants and he pursed his thin lips looking down slightly.

He would not be foolish enough to risk Asgard.

He would not be foolish enough to risk Darcy's life either.

Everyone looked up as the double doors opened to the room, revealing the Queen and someone trailing behind her. Loki let out a noise that was far beyond appropriate as he looked over Darcy, she looked even better than she did in that black dress of hers back on Midgard, she now wore a long green and gold embroidered dress that flew to her ankles gracefully, it outlined her admirable curves which many were envious of, it was a very low-cut dress considering it had been his mother who had chosen it for her. The backing of it was loose as Darcy half turned to them a grin on her lips as she looked at Loki, her hair was luckily not tied up and was out in its natural waves which were preferable by Loki. Her plump, full lips were in contrast to her dress and stood out unbelievably so. Loki's fantasies got the better of him and he could just imagine taking that silk dress off of her curvaceous body and doing whatever pleased her, and oh the things he would do.

A blush had formed its way onto Darcy as she looked around unusually quiet. All of the men were admiring her, probably some of them were even imagining the things Loki were, even Sif admitted to herself the witty Midgardian girl was beautiful, regardless of the dress.

Loki placed his hands together and intertwined his own fingers trying to drag his gaze away from her,clearing his throat.

''Mother, do you really think this is the necessary thing to be doing this considering there are Frost Giants roaming the streets, Darcy however doesn't really have the time to be playing dress up.'' Loki said more harshly than he meant to and instantly regretted it as he saw some of the happiness drift from Darcy's eyes.

''Loki! Don't be so rude and let those Frost Giants have their fun while we have ours. Your father has been waiting to meet Darcy after all and he would much like us to make the time we have today to do this and not sit and dread. Obviously we must wait until we hear something from that arrow man and the girl with the fiery hair.'' Frigga chastised, looking at Darcy with a re-assuring smile.

Loki clenched his jaw and sat on the stairs like he had with Thor once and lent down as Frigga excused herself and left Darcy with them.

The Warriors three and Sif all made excuses to leave the room leaving Loki, Thor and Darcy alone.

''Mischief?" Darcy asked walking over and sitting beside him on the step, unfortunately Thor had only just realised he should leave them alone and walked out without a word, muttering something under his breathe.

Loki felt so stressed he didn't answer, he didn't know how long it would be after this that he could see Darcy again. If he made it out alive that is. He shut his eyes and almost instantly he felt something on his mouth.

He opened his eyes widely to find Darcy leaning over and moving her lips against his, he darted his tongue into her mouth and molded into her lips, just as he moved his hand to her waist pulling her on top of him feeling the silk beneath his fingertips.

''I do so fear that if we continue this we may need more than a day until I fight the Frost Giants.'' Loki murmured against her mouth opening his eyes once again to see her basically straddling him and pulling back looking at him, lust covered her eyes yet she smiled with her swollen lips.

''That would be such a shame, wouldn't it Mischief?'' Darcy said with that smirk of hers bending back down to place a kiss on his cheek still smirking and stood up about to leave.

''Human, where are you going?'' Loki questioned still feeling where her lips had been moments ago, standing up and straightening his collar and armor. Darcy turned and gave a curtsey.

''Home with Cap', we have unfinished business.'' Darcy said seriously wiggling her tongue in her mouth as she said it, about to turn away before Loki's hand snaked around her wrist his nails digging into her skin accidentally, forgetting how sensitive her skin was considering he was stronger than Midgardians.

''Ow! Relax, relax I'm joking! I'm joking. Loki!" Darcy yelped as his grip got tighter, though he thought he was only holding her not harming her. He looked down and threw her arm away groaning internally as he saw the marks he had left, could he not do anything right?

''Do not joke about that, Darcy, I don't like sharing what's mine.'' Loki said darkly, stepping over a very thin line. Darcy bit her lip, she knew there was obviously something between he and herself but she didn't know what it was, she had no idea why she had kissed him before but it had felt good. What he had just told her sent shivers down her back and she wished they had still been in his room.

Darcy let out a nervous laugh as his towering gaze locked with hers.

''Jealous type, much?'' Darcy asked biting her lip. She felt intimidated by him once again, especially since this was his home and he obviously was a real prince, with real royalty and probably girls lining up for him everywhere. Darcy's vision soured at this and she wondered just how many had fan-girled over him.

''Hmm.'' Loki let out a small sound as he began pacing. Darcy quirked an eyebrow and looked at him.

The doors opened to reveal Thor, in all of his armor and looking worried, sweat ran down his face and a long slit along his arm showed something was wrong. Loki walked towards him swiftly, taking a hold of Darcy's arm and prying her back, he quirked an eyebrow.

''What is it?" Loki asked calmly.

''They're here. Just outside the palace, I fear there are far too many of them brother.'' Thor said regrettably, looking at his friend, Darcy, then back up to his brother's calm, deadly face.

''Not backing out now, are we Thor. I do believe it was you who took us to Jotunheim and was willing to face and slaughter all of them.'' Loki snapped, Darcy could practically feel the anger wavering off of his cold frame. A quiet silence followed and Darcy heard shouts from far below, wincing.

Loki looked down at her for a second in that dress of hers and felt his lips twitch downwards, she was scared, now normally he would love to be in this oppurtinty but she wasn't scared of him, she was scared of everyone's fate after a good look at her, taking in every feature he could possibly imagine he swerved his gaze back to his unusually quiet brother.

''Now, Thor, just like old times then.'' Loki scoffed taking out his sword from its holster and grinning madly, he was in need of this. Thor gave him a look before nodding and leaving, closing the doors behind him.

Loki ran a finger and curled it into Darcy's hair smirking slightly before letting go beginning to follow after Thor. He stopped dead in his tracks as he heard a whimper escape Darcy's throat and that sound was like torture to him, my what had this woman done to him?

''...Darcy.'' Loki said hoarsely turning around to meet a tear stricken Darcy, who may have very well been in shock. Her body shook furiously, she had known how easy it was to lose someone in a second more than most people, sending him out into a field of Frost Giants would only increase it. If his heart ever stopped beating what would she do?

There was nothing left.

Anywhere.

Except him.
