Getting back to the palace was no easy feat, the horse ride down the mountain was long and tedious.

Most of you felt exhausted with little energy, and Loki having spent the most time in the life sucking water was barely able to keep his eyes open.

"Urgh, why is it taking so long to reach the palace" you exclaim, feeling your whole body aching.

"My wings are killing me" Huggin utters lowly, trying to keep his body taught to minimise the pain as his horse trotted over bumps.

You turn to Loki and see him slumped forward on his horse, his floppy arms dangling downwards.

"Are you okay Loki?" you ask, seeing his weakened state

"Urghhh" he groggily moaned out, but forced a small smile to ease your concerns.

"Well I feel fantastic! I have oodles of energy" boomed Thor, showing off by tossing his hammer in the air and catching it.

You look annoyed at Thor, and judging by the jumbled mutters and murmurs that escaped Loki and Huggin, they too were irked at his jolly demeanour.

"You feel great Thor, because you didn't have any of your life force sucked out of you, the water didn't touch you!" you exclaim

"Thank the gods!" Thor praised up to the sky.

"And you didn't feel the burn in your lungs as the murky water suffocated you!" Huggin said, using up his little energy to make it known that Thor got off lightly.

You heard Loki mumble against his horse, his head had fallen flat. Now too weak to hold it up.

"What was that brother?" Thor enquired

"You're an oaf!" Loki suddenly yelled, depleting all his stamina to insult Thor.

Thor chuckled "ah it's so nice to have you back Brother... so nice"

You laid down on your horse and turned your head to watch Loki. The slow trot rocked you, making you more sleepy.

You fought against the sleep that called to you, wanting to stay awake and observe Loki as he slept atop his horse.

You focus on his face, it was still pale but at least it wasn't full of worry, he slept peacefully, albeit full of aches but his mind was now at ease, finally he knew you didn't betray him.

Before Loki became too drained, Thor had relayed everything that happened after he stormed out of the palace.

He now knew it was the necklace that controlled you, that Beren planned it all along. Loki was deeply sorry and full of regret. Promising never to doubt you again.

You continued watching Loki, never breaking your gaze off his sleepy features. God you loved him so much, you could never get tiresome of just observing him.

He could be sparring with Thor, reading a book silently or simply fast asleep, and your heart would fill, your stomach would flutter. And however mundane it would be to others, to you it was everything and more.

You looked at him sympathetically as his head rolled, jolting him awake from his peaceful slumber.

He grumbled in annoyance having to use more energy to lift his head back in place, resting it on his horse.

"Thor, bind my horse to yours, I'm riding with Loki" you instruct.

You move Nara closer to Loki's horse, and smoothly joined Loki on his, positioning yourself behind him.

You gently pulled Loki towards you, allowing his back to rest against your body, and his head to snuggly lean on your chest. You snaked your arms around his waist and held him close.

He cooed sensing you near him, his body instantly relaxing into your loving embrace.

"Thank you darling" he murmured, with closed eyes.

You smile, and kiss the top of his head, occasionally nibbling on his ear making Loki purr like a happy cat as he slept.

With Loki in your arms, the remainder of the journey went by fast. You now wished it hadn't gone by as quick.

——————————

It had been two whole days since you arrived back at the palace. Your company was mainly Fenrir and Cerby, occasionally Thor too, but there was a limit to how much sparring you wanted to watch.

You found yourself excusing yourself a lot, joining your pups in the library, or in the palace gardens.

Then when you desperately missed Loki, which was often, you crept into his darkened chambers and gently laid beside him, making sure you didn't disturb his deep sleep.

His ordeal with the water nymph took a toll on both Loki and Huggin's body.

Loki had fallen in a deep sleep while riding back to the palace, and as soon as Huggin sprawled out onto his bed within his private chambers, he too slept deeply.

You agreed with Frigga when she shared her wisdom

"A calm rested mind is the ultimate weapon against challenges, allow your body and mind to rest, and the healing will come by itself"

You knew it was best to let the men rest, to regain their stamina, but most importantly to give their mind a rest from the ordeal they went through.

But two days, verging on three felt like a lifetime of not speaking with Loki. You desperately craved the sound of his voice, missing him calling you Kitten, or Darling or Sweetheart.

You had just finished dining with Fenrir and a now equally giant Cerby, and decided to leave them sleep while you checked on Loki.

You slowly twisted the handle of his door and sneaked inside, tiptoeing across the room to reach his sleeping form. Very gently you positioned yourself next to him, observing his chest rise and fall as he slept peacefully on his side.

You grew excited seeing him in a different sleeping position to when you last left him. It meant he had now began stirring, his energy levels becoming more stable.

"You'll wake soon, and when you do. I want you to call me Kitten, and kiss me softly, and roam my body with your tongue.."

Your low whisper of words trailed off, replaced by your soft moans.

You made yourself so aroused by speaking your desires out loud that you instinctively began touching yourself. Your hand lay nestled between your thighs, softly stroking your aroused clit.

You continued to look at Loki as you played with yourself. You could clearly see his defined chest muscles through his thin tunic, but by the gods you wished to see his bare skin, his nakedness.

You frustratedly sighed, your fingers not able to give you the release you wanted. Your mind desperately called for a more explicit picture, you needed to see his body.

You looked at Loki longingly, wondering if it would be wrong to simply conjure his clothes away, just for a few minutes while you quenched your need.

Your mind battled with your heart, indecisive on what you should do.

Your mind told you it was completely fine to take off his clothes, and satisfy yourself as you stared at him. Whilst your heart pounded against your chest, yelling at you for being selfish. To leave him sleep and rest.

You sighed, removing your hand and pulling your dress down, your heart winning the battle.

You told yourself that his side sleeping position wouldn't have given you the full frontal you desired to see anyway. It was not meant to be.

You rolled over and walked towards the door, about to open it when you heard Loki stir.

You turned to look, and grinned seeing Loki now sleeping on his back.

"I do believe the Gods are telling me to be selfish" you whisper under your breath, proceeding to resume your position on the bed next to him.

You conjured your clothes away first, and then with slight hesitation made Loki's comfy bed clothes disappear too.

You bit your lip seeing his naked body right next to you, and immediately your hand slid down your lower body, coming to a stop at your sexually excited clit.

You eyed his lean muscular body candidly as you touched yourself in firm circled motions. Your breathing becoming heavy and fast as your eyes pass over his cock, vividly imagining yourself bouncing on it wildly.

You tried to hold in your moans by clenching your jaw together, and pursing your lips, but your melodic whimpers vibrated up and out of your mouth.

Your body writhed on the bed, and your free hand gripped at the sheet as you came close to reaching your much needed release.

Your eyes moved from Loki's features and back to his cock and you immediately stop your self-play.

You stare in stunned surprise seeing his cock now fully erect, you lean over him and watch his face closer.

"Loki?" you whisper

His eyelids twitched but he remained in a deep sleep.

You sighed, realising he was still not awake. Yet lust resumed your senses when you saw his stiff cock ready and waiting.

More indecisiveness plagued you as you stared longingly at his body, at his hard thick cock standing to attention.

Should I? Is it wrong? It's there in front of me growing cold, it needs warmth, my warmth...

Your mind and body was riddled with selfish need, and your heart banged against your desire telling you no. But then your mind asked a valid question..

what would Loki want?

You smile, answering your own thoughts out loud.

"He'd want me to ride him like a cowboy"

Gently you lifted your legs around his waist, and slowly lowered yourself down until the tip of Loki's cock just grazed your entrance.

Hovering over him you looked at his sleeping face.

You kept your gaze locked on him as you lowered your body further downwards allowing his cock to penetrate you, not stopping until his cock was completely buried within your warmth.

You smile with curiosity, seeing his facial features twitch, could he feel the same pleasure as you, you wondered as you slowly circled your hips on his erection.

You brushed your fingertips over his abs as you carefully moved on top of him, and as much as you wanted to wildly dance upon his cock you kept your cool, remaining gentle.

You really didn't want to disturb his mind healing with your selfish desire to go faster, to go harder.

Your orgasm rapidly built up as you resumed your clit rubs while rocking on his cock and when you switched to tapping your highly sensitive bud your bliss suddenly came in waves around your body.

A long strangled moan bellowed out of you as you reached your honeyed rapture, your breathing fast and heavy as you pumped a few more times on Loki's thick cock before stilling yourself.

To your surprise you heard the smallest of moans escape Loki's slightly parted lips. And although you had your release and could happily climb off him and go to sleep, your curiosity was too peaked to just leave.

You began grinding on his cock a few more times, watching his face intently and sharply listening for any sound.

You smiled when you heard another little whimper coo from Loki, his lips parting wider as he made delicious sounds.

Hearing him made your desire grow once again, and you knew another orgasm was on the brink as you felt your core pulse and quiver clenching around his cock.

You held in your moans not wanting to drown out Loki's low groans, because hearing him gave you as much pleasure as it did riding his cock.

Just as another sweet release was about to hit you hard, you heard heavy footsteps from behind the door, someone was approaching Loki's chambers.

You quickly jumped from Loki, and conjured him clothes.

Three thumps suddenly knocked on the door, and before you went to open it, you delicately ghosted your lips over Loki's.

"Thank you my Love, you were great" you whisper against his mouth.

You saw his features stir again, feeling your warm breath against his cooler skin. You slowly back away, and opened the door.

"Ah, I knew you'd be here Sister, how goes Loki? Does he wake yet?"

"Sssh, Thor. Use your inside voice" you say, walking into the hall and closing the bedroom door behind you.

"Sorry" he whispers, walking side by side with you down the corridor of the palace.

"Is everything okay?" you ask, confused why he came looking for you.

"Mhmm" he mutters, nodding nervously.

You stopped and looked at him curiously, Thor was not one to not speak. You were dubious and suspected something was on his mind but he was hesitant to say.

"Spit it out Thor, I no you're not telling me something"

"Well, it's just. You see, I ..."

"Thor, just say what you have to say. There isn't anything you can't tell me" you reassure.

He took a deep breath, calming himself before it all came tumbling out of him, and all at once.

"I've spoken to Meddie and she is completely fine with us having a baby, I no Loki told you he doesn't want a Jotun child because he doesn't want to risk your life. And I, being his brother of course agreed to help you both start a family using my seed. I believe my seed to be strong and I can provide plenty to fill your womb. And like I said, Meddie is happy to help too. I think now you and Loki are on good terms again, he'd likely want to start the process of filling the palace with our children, I mean his children. And-"

Your eyes widened in complete shock, of all the things you thought Thor was going to blurt out. This was not one of them.

"Thor, let me stop you right there. Yes, Loki told me his crazy idea but I haven't yet decided. And if I do agree to this unusual plan, the baby making would begin years into the future" you exclaim

Thor looked at you surprised before his expression morphed into apprehensive guilt.

"What's that face? you're looking at me guilty, what have you done?" you snapped

Thor pulled on his leather collar, reluctant to admit that he's already announced the plan.

"I ummm, well you see I may have accidentally let slip the idea to the warriors, and palace staff being ever so nosey overheard, and now it's spreading like wildfires amongst the palace"

You looked at Thor in total disbelief. You'd wondered why maids and guards kept smiling and whispering as you passed them, occasionally a maid glimpsing at your belly.

Gods, you now understand why. They must think you've already started the baby making with Thor! And they having no clue about midgardian artificial insemination probably think it's done the usual way... sex.

Sex with Thor. You shuddered at the thought.

"Thor I can't believe this!" you yelled furious

"May I also add, that I was drunk and thus I can't be blamed for my actions" he said directly.

"You're such a pain in my ass Thor! Just when I thought everything was going to go smoothly you start all this. Arrgh!"  you stomp your foot down angry, walking away from him.

He calls out to you as you strut away "wait! there is more to tell"

You turned on the ball of your feet and glared at him.

"Mother has requested you go to the Maternity healers and have a health check, prenatal vitamins are a must even before conception she says"

Your eyes widen in shock.. "Queen Frigga knows?!"

"Yes, Mother is very excited. She already plans the nursery!" Thor booms, smiling.

Your stomach lurched, a knot forming and sitting heavy in your stomach.

"Urgh Thor. It was going so well. Damn you and your big mouth" you blurt out, feeling a mix of all emotions overcome you, making you feel sick.

"So will you go?" he asks anxiously, his smile faded.

"Fine" you say through gritted teeth.

"Great!" he yells, a large grin again encompassing his face.

You turn around and walk away, intending to go back to your room and sleep but Thor yet again called out.

"You're going the wrong way, the ward is on your left" he directs

You don't even bother to turn around or stop, "I'm not going now Thor! Geez" you yell, and hurriedly scurry around the corner, purposely avoiding going left.

You retreat to your bed chamber, and slump down onto the pillow, confused nerves filling you as Thor's conversation replayed in your mind.

You gaze up at the bed canopy focussing on the intricate designs on the drapes, anything to distract your mind from the thoughts of having a baby with the wrong prince of Asgard.

Before long your eyes close, and sleep puts your crowded mind at rest.

—————————

Feeling cool air on your body stirs you out of your sleep, you flutter your eyes open peeking up at the bed canopy once again.

You shiver, now feeling cold. Looking down at your body you see the blankets had been pulled off you.

Even more alarming was the fact you were completely naked. Your brows furrowed in confusion, you didn't recall going to bed naked.

You were about to sit up and grab the blanket when a voice came out of the shadows, making you freeze in place.

"Don't move Kitten"

Your heart hammered inside your chest as excitement brewed inside you.

"Loki?" you call out, peering into the darkness, yet keeping deadly still.

You hear a low growl within the shadows. It was Loki's familiar, signature noise that made your core instantly quiver, and the hairs on your body rise.

"I know what you did Darling, and I'm very very angry"

You furrow your brows, confused. But then you remembered, you selfishly took pleasure from his cock as he slept.. was he angry over that?

"I'm sorry" you say, straining your eyes to better see in the dark.

Another deep snarl emanates from the darkened room, but this time you snap your eyes towards the sound, knowing exactly where he hid.

Your eyes widen and your heart rate quickened seeing Loki emerge from the shadows.

His naked body was highlighted only by the moons glow that shined through the large window.

His eyes were narrowed, focussing solely on you and your naked body.

You merely blinked and before you could open your eyes you felt a heavy body lay on top of you.

You darted your lids open and stared directly into his lust filled eyes.

"Kitten" he whispered in a raspy voice, the sweet scent of his breath making you extremely aroused.

"I'm going to kiss you softly now, and then I'm going to roam your body with my tongue" he instructs

The fire in your loins burned fiercely at hearing him repeat the same words you said to him as he slept.

He heard you, he heard your requests.

Does that mean he also heard you moan and whimper, did he hear you play with yourself as you laid next to him. Did he feel you bounce on his cock, selfishly taking pleasure from him?

Your mind swam with thoughts..

"Yes, yes I did sweetheart" he answered your thoughts.

You forgot to close your mind, Loki heard the ramblings of your mind.

"Oh, I'm so angry Kitten. Am I not a considerate lover? Have I ever not allowed you to finish? yet, you left me, selfishly taking your bliss and leaving me fully erect without my happy ending. Tut-tut-tut ..."

You grinned at him when you realised he wasn't angry you mounted him without permission. He was pissed that you didn't continue riding him until he came, giving him his sweet release.

"I'm so sorry my King, how terribly rude of me, allow me to make it up to you" you say apologetic.

"Ah Kitten, I indeed allow it, in fact I demand it. I will take from you, what you took from me, regardless if you allow it or not. Fair is fair my Queen"

You felt the flutters in your belly even stronger hearing the dominance in his voice.

"Take me, I'm yours" you huff out, his dominant trait taking your breath away.

Loki lowered his lips to yours, softly kissing your lips as you requested, and as he promised.

He broke contact with your lips, but continued kissing down your neck and you anxiously waited in anticipation of his tongue exploring your body. Again, as you requested and as he promised.

You moan feeling his warm tongue slip out, gliding towards your breasts, and circling your hard nipple.

He delicately kissed your protruding teat before gently taking it between his teeth.

You arch your back as he bites down firmly, the sudden sharp pain on your sensitive nipple sent jolts of electricity lower down in your body.

His ears pricked up hearing you squeal in delight, making his desire for you to burn ferociously.

His cock was hard and eagerly waiting to punish you for edging him earlier. For not finishing him off, and giving him his much needed release.

He adored you took pleasure from him as he slept, because his mind was fully aware but his body was still too weak to wake and engage.

"I wanted to scream for you to come back, to fuck me harder. But my body would not allow me to wake. The torture you put me through Kitten was unlike any I've ever felt" he admits, talking against your skin and travelling further down.

You tried to listen to his words and you wanted to respond but his tongue now reached your folds. You anxiously waited, wanting his tongue to part your folds and lick your clit but Loki kept his tongue teasingly light against your slit, never entering. You believed it was karma for the torture he endured.

"Yet, I thoroughly enjoyed you taking advantage of my unresponsive body my Queen. Never question whether it was right or wrong. Every part of me is yours to touch, yours to kiss, yours to fuck"

You suddenly gasp as he pushed his tongue inside your slit, lapping at your clit that was swollen with desire.

Loki's lust became feral, he aggressively pulled apart your thighs, opening you up, allowing him to push his entire face into your wet pussy.

He moaned against your core, groaning so loud, so deep, it vibrated against you. His sounds alone made you clench down, and when he felt you begin to pulse, sensing your orgasm was imminent he thrust his tongue inside you. Tasting and feeling you cum on his tongue.

Your mind swirled as you lay on your pillow, your separated legs shaking from the intense climax.

You panted hard as Loki crawled back up your body, lightly leaning his chest on yours as his lower body nestled itself between your legs.

You opened your eyes and saw him staring at you, his gaze studying your features.

"How do you get more beautiful every time I look at you darling?"

You smile, gushing as his romantic words, yet they were not just words, you felt the sincerity behind them.

"I think it's the blissful contentment you're seeing Loki. My desire is throughly quenched, I believe beauty comes out more when we're happy"

Loki smiled "Do I make you happy sweetheart?" he asked, genuinely curious.

You giggle seeing his serious expression "oh Loki, don't you no, I'm my happiest when I'm with you" you say cheery, cupping his face with your hands and pulling him into a kiss.

Loki grinned wide, it was not often you see him smile baring teeth, but he did, and you memorised his face, committing his beaming smile to memory.

"Now, I do recall I owe you your happy ending my love" you grin suggestively.

Loki's brow raised and a smirk replaced his toothy smile.

"Do you require my mouth or my honeypot? my King"

Loki's eyes looked up, pondering which he'd prefer this night

"Seeing as you so selfishly kept me waiting two days before taking advantage of me, and then when you finally did, you tortuously didn't allow me to finish. I think I have every right to demand all your delicious holes sweetheart"

You smirk wide eyed "oh, well.. the morning is nearing and your stomach is rumbling, you better get started filling me Loki"

Loki grinned wide before suddenly flipping you over onto your belly. You felt him lean over you and talk gruffly into your ear.

"I think I'll start here first pet" he said while squeezing your ass cheek with his large hand.

You hissed from the sharp squeeze, and knew his forceful hand on your ass will leave a perfect imprint by the morning.

Without warning he grabbed your arms and bent them back, holding them hostage. You felt cold metal around your wrists, and immediately knew Loki had conjured heavy shackles to hold you in place.

He let go of your arms knowing you were unable to move, and his cock twitched against your ass cheeks as he observed you chained and bound.

The pleasure he got from seeing you restricted, and in a vulnerable pose was a new turn on he wished to explore further.

You felt his desire for you surge observing your bound form and your own desire roared inside you at his rough play acting.

You struggled against your cuffs, pretending to fight your restraints.

"Please, let me go. I'm just a weak Earth girl, there's no way your giant cock can fit inside me. Please just release me" you mock beg

Loki growled deeper, his cock getting harder witnessing you struggle and hearing you plead for release. He was thoroughly enjoying your role play.

You felt his hands spread your ass cheeks, positioning his wide cock at your entrance. "You're mine Earth girl. I'll make you stretch to fit me in, moulding you to my shape, so that each time I have you, you'll fit me like a glove"

You grin wide against your pillow, holding in your playful giggles, you wanted to remain in character.

"But I'm a virgin, my virtue goes untouched, please captor, don't fuck my ass" you purposely make your voice break, adding authenticity to your pleas, yet at the same time poking your ass out, enticing him more.

"Oh my sweet untouched maiden, your ass is too pretty to not be fucked" Loki suddenly leaned over you, whispering in your ear "And, I will not be gentle"

You felt your ass stretch as he thrust himself in, your head immediately hitting the pillow, muffling your loud cries of pleasure.

Loki suddenly grabbed the pillow and threw it across the room. "I want to hear you scream out pretty maiden, yell my name loud as I ram my cock into your ass, claiming your virtue for my own"

You bellow out as he thrust deeper and hard inside you. This time not having a feather pillow to muffle your noises.

"Please captor, you're too big and thick, you're tearing my small hole" you say while struggling more against the mattress, your arms still tightly bound behind your back.

Loki continued to pummel into you, causing the wooden bed to bang against the wall, and the side of your face to gain friction as it brushed roughly against the sheets.

Your heavy wails and his blaring howls got louder, you were pretty sure your rough play was heard by guards within the hall too.

Your cheeks flushed at the thought.

Loki suddenly flipped you back onto your back, immediately holding your legs up in the air and thrust deep inside your wet pussy.

This time you did genuinely shriek from the rough intrusion, he somehow felt much much bigger, stretching your walls profoundly as he pounded your insides sore.

You looked up at him feeling lightheaded, the sudden flip coupled with the intensity of his extremely hefty girth made you dizzy. You couldn't quite focus 100% yet, but you were pretty sure you saw blue.

Loki chuckled seeing your confused state, he knew your mind hadn't quite grasped what you were seeing yet, so he waited while fucking you even harder.

Your eyes finally came into focus and you gasp, now knowing exactly why his cock felt different. Felt giant.

You screeched in painful pleasure, this time truly struggling against your cuffs, desperately wanting to touch the Jotun God in front of you.

"Loki, I want to touch you! Please. Set me free" you plead.

"I take it you like what you see Kitten?" he smirks down at you, now slowing his powerful thrusts.

"Yes, I love what I see, and what I feel"

You loved being stretched but you knew your pussy was going to be sore by the morning. You were thankful he slowed his movements.

Loki leaned his body over you, allowing his chest to brush against your perfect mounds. You felt his raised Jotun markings against your skin as he leaned more onto you, continuing moving his hips in smooth strokes, keeping a steady rhythm.

His black hair cascaded downwards tickling your face. And as his colder blue skin caressed yours, it felt like a cooling blanket, soothing you on a warm day. His touch creating tingles all over your body.

You couldn't bare not being able to explore his body any longer, using your magic you easily and effortlessly removed your binds. Immediately grabbing at his body as soon as your arms were free.

Loki chuckled in surprise, then crashed his lips down to yours, kissing you passionately.

You felt the flex of his muscles as you traced your fingertips down his back, feeling even more Jotun markings.

You enjoyed and relished his slower, tender movements, no longer fucking you, but now making sweet passionate love.

Your moans collided with his as he held you close to his body, his hips continuing to snap into you. He huffed, and groaned into your ear as he neared his release.

"Do you think you can fit me in your mouth Kitten" he said out of breath, his orgasm imminent.

"I'll do my best" you giggle

"That's my girl" he praised as he pulled out of you, and hovered over you on his knees.

You sat up and held onto his shaft, needing the use of two hands to fully cup it.

Loki grinned seeing your anxious eyes widen.

"It grows cold sweetheart, open your pretty mouth for me please"

You stare upwards, mesmerised by his striking ruby coloured eyes.

You open your mouth as wide as it could go, allowing him to slide in. He cooed feeling the warmth of your mouth, and the sensation of your tongue as he thrusted in and out.

"Open wider my Queen, let me fuck that delicious throat"

You stretched your mouth even wider, and he pushed in until you felt the tip of his blue cock prodding the back of your throat. You battled not to gag.

"That's it darling, move that tongue on my shaft, suck on me harder" he groaned out, suddenly gripping your hair and madly bopping your head along his cock.

You hear him whine and whimper as he expelled his seed deep down your throat, while holding your head steady. You guzzled down his cum, enjoying the feeling of it dripping down your windpipe.

Loki released his grip on your hair and slowly slid out of your mouth and whilst you throughly enjoyed the face fuck, your cramped jaw was relieved to be able to shut your mouth again.

Loki looked down at you from his higher position and watched you as you used your tongue to lick the sides of you mouth, lapping up any of his missed godly fluid.

You laid back onto the bed, and stretched your body. Feeling sleepy having had all your holes drilled.

Loki watched you amused, his mind still couldn't comprehend how you acted so comfortable around his Jotun form.

From the moment you saw him as a frost giant you never once feared him, and it still amazed him.

His Jotun form was feared by every realm, as to them he was and is a monster from an uncivilised and barbaric race.

"Are you joining me my Jotun God" you say up to Loki, admiring his larger body.

Loki broke from his train of thoughts, and smiled, instantly laying down beside you. He conjured a warm blanket and snuggled in with you.

You smoothed your hand over his chest, feeling the raised intricate markings that Jotuns were born with.

You understood from your history book, that each family had their own unique markings. It was a way to identify their blood family.

You began to wonder about Loki's real family, his Jotun heritage. 

He saw you lost in thought, and wondered what consumed your mind.

Before he could ask, you had already decided to brave the question that burned inside you.

"Loki, who are your parents? And I mean, your blood family" you asked with slight trepidation

Loki sighed, but he knew questions were eventually going to be asked.

"I-I simply don't know darling. All I no is what I've been told. Odin took me as a baby during the great frost wars with Asgard and Jotunehim. I was abandoned on a rock far from the battle and left to die"

Your heart hurt hearing his story, and you could see the pain on Loki's face as he retold it.

"Why would anyone abandon a baby?" you ask skeptical

"My mother said I was unusually small for a baby, and extremely small for a Jotun. My guess is, I was the runt of the litter, left to die because I wasn't worth the effort to raise" 

Loki smiled when he mockingly referred to himself as a runt, but you could tell it saddened him after he said it. Believing it to be true.

You refused to believe a mother could abandon a child, no matter how small or sickly. The story just didn't sit right with you.

"Have you never felt the need to go to Jotunheim and find out about your heritage yourself?"

"I never want to go to that desolate place. I don't ever want to face the uncivilised monsters that I would've become" he says angry

"But Loki-"

"There is a reason the realms cut all ties with Jotunheim, they're barbarians. Still living in the stone age, hunting, gathering the kill and dragging it back to their icy caves. But they too barricade themselves within their realm, not allowing access in or out because they don't wish to evolve"

"But you're nothing like that even when in Jotun form, surely you'd have some similarities or instincts of your people" you say, finding it hard to believe an entire realm, the whole population of jotuns have not evolved to better themselves.

"I was raised to know better, because my mother raised me and taught me magic. And after learning what I was and reading what they were, I made sure I didn't behave in no similar way to them"

"But what If we both went there and spoke with-"

"Never! I will never allow you to step foot in that barren land. I'm the only monster from Jotunheim you should speak with. Now enough talk darling, let's sleep, and replenish our energy ready for a fun day tomorrow"

Loki shut down the conversation, to him speaking about his heritage was pointless. He didn't care to remember that he wasn't full Asgardian.

You felt Loki relax into your body, his hand slyly resting on your bare breast as he prepared for sleep.

You tried to close your eyes and sleep, but your mind would not or could not accept he was simply abandoned.

Odin would never save anything from the goodness of his heart, his motives are almost always because he has something to gain in return. So why would he take a baby?

You knew Loki would not delve deeper into his heritage, or even question his fathers story because deep down he still resented himself.

You knew to find out more, you'd need to speak to a certain Raven who had the unique ability to remember everything in vivid detail. He also served Odin and did his bidding for many thousands of years. 

Thankfully, Munnin worshipped you now. He'd surely reveal the real truth of Loki's heritage.
