Chapter 1

As I walked through the busy streets of New York, I let my mind drift to the last couple of weeks. They hadn't been easy but I tried to look forward given that it wasn't the first time something like this happened.

I approached a tall building, that had walls made of glass. One of the upper floors looked like a big terrace, which was decorated with big, shiny letters spelling the word "Stark".

I entered the building and walked up to a young woman sitting at a desk. "How may I help you?" she asked smiling. "I would like to talk to Thor Odinson. I was told he lives here at the moment." I explained.

She knitted her eyebrows. "I'm afraid I can't let you talk to him. I can't let a stranger enter one of the upper floors." she exclaimed, making me chuckle.

"I'm not a stranger. Trust me, he knows who I am." I told her. "Is there a problem, Sophia?" a voice behind me asked. I turned around and looked into two brown orbs.

"Mister Stark, this young lady wants to see Mister Odinson, saying he'd knew who she was." the woman explained. The man looked me up and down as I crossed my arms over my chest and rolled my eyes.

"What's your name?" he asked. "Althea Thordottir." I looked him straight in the eyes. He scanned my body again before motioning me to follow him.

He led me to an elevator. "Friday, please take us to the 86th floor." he said. "Yes, sir." a female sounding voice said. "So you're Tony Stark." I exclaimed.

"The one and only." he answered cockily. I rolled my eyes and stared at the door. When the doors opened he brought me into a room that looked like a living room.

"Thor, this young lady says her name is Althea Thordottir." Stark said, making a blond man that was sitting on a couch turn around. „Hey dad." I smirked.

"Althea what are you doing here?" he asked standing up. I rolled my eyes. I did that quite often. "I'm happy to see you too." I said as a red haired woman walked into the room.

She had beautiful green orbs and was a bit shorter than me. Her hair was laying loosely on her shoulders. Her lips were a bright pink. She had her hands on her hips.

She stopped in her tracks as her eyes landed on me. "What's going on?" she asked. "We'd like to know, too." a blonde man stated. "Well, maybe you should bring Loki here." dad suggested.

"Why?" a man with dark curly hair asked. "Because I'd like to see my uncle." I explained earning shocked and confused looks. The red haired woman raised an eyebrow before turning around and walking out of the room.

A few minutes later she came back dragging my uncle with her. As she stopped walking, she let go of him. He looked around the room until his eyes landed on me.

"Althea?" he asked smiling. I nodded. "Let me hug my favorite niece." he cooed as he pulled me into a hug. "Perhaps you could tell us who this young lady is." suggested Stark.

Dad took a deep breath. "This is Althea, my daughter." he said. "You have a daughter and you never thought about telling us?" the blonde man asked.

"Well, to be fair, I was born long before you guys met." I grinned as I crossed my arms. "So why are you here all of a sudden?" the red haired woman asked.

"Uhm, dad, do you remember when I got into this bar fight a few years ago?" I asked, causing him to roll his eyes. "I do. Father was really mad because you killed two Asguardians in the process." he exclaimed.

I smiled at him unsure. Something seemed to click in his mind as he let out an annoyed sigh. "Oh my god, tell me you didn't-" he begged.

"What are you doing here?" Loki asked. "I got in a little fight. Mum was annoyed so she sent me here saying 'you're moving to your dad and uncle to NYC'." I said.

"So what did you do?" Stark asked. "Well, let's just say no one is going to see them again." I said. "You killed them?" the blonde man asked shocked.

"I'm so proud of you." Loki smirked before I could answer. This is gonna be fun.
