Beth and the Beast

Chapter 8 - Nights

It took quite some time to find the right key to her apartment door but after a few minutes and a bit of swearing the wooden door finally swung open. Beth shut it behind herself and threw her coat on the floor and her shoes under the table. She opened the button of her pants and wanted to take them off, when suddenly Loki appeared, and she fell to the floor in shock. Loki pulled her curtains close and hurried over to help her up. >>What are you doing pet? You really want your neighbors to see you naked?<< he asked and sat on the bed with her.
>>Oh excuse me Mr. God. I was on my way to bed and I'm so drunk I don't even care what my neighbors see.<< She got off the bed and tried to take her pant off. Loki watched her and smiled with relish. Beth struggled but made it out of her pants and threw them through her apartment.

>>Excuse me, but I want to go to bed now.<< she said standing in front of Loki in only her green top and her underpants. In that moment something happened between the two of them. Loki stood up, grabbed her waist and pulled her close to his body. Then he wrapped his arms around her, grabbed her top, pulled it over her shoulders and threw it to the ground. Their eyes met as Beth stood there half naked and slightly turned on. Suddenly Loki's appearance changed into him only wearing a boxer. Then he turned around with her, pushed her onto the bed and placed his body on top of Beth. She couldn't help but look at his god-like body and think >Shit, he is really hot!<

Loki grabbed her wrists and secured them over her head with his left hand. His right hand gently stroked her cheek and his face got closer. At first Beth felt scared and felt it tough to let go. But she was also drunk and horny, longing for his body. She bit her bottom lip and said >>Kiss me Loki.<< In the next second their lips crashed onto another and their tongues locked. When Loki let go of her wrists, Beth placed one hand on his back, pulling him closer to her and her other hand slipped into his black hair, so he wouldn't let go of her. The kissing got even more intense, and Loki started to run his hands over her body. In her thoughts, Beth already imagined them having sex and she let out a moan. Out of the blue Loki let go of her and pushed his body away. >>No<< he shouted. >>What are we doing? This wasn't supposed to happen.<< He changed into his normal clothes and hushed away from the bed where Beth still was lying in her underwear.

She pulled her blanket over her half-naked body and looked at Loki. She felt despair and anger in him, but she didn't know why he felt like that. >>What is the problem?<< she asked knowing that she wouldn't get a satisfying answer to her question. Aroused Loki wandered through her apartment not knowing what to do. Beth felt weird. She was still pretty turned on, but also still drunk and now disappointed. >>I can't have feelings for you. Not even such feelings. You are only a pet. A Midgardian that is supposed to help me complete my mission.<< His words cut like a knife. >>Don't you dare fall for me! I'm bad! I'm only gonna hurt you in the end.<< he exclaimed. Beth wrapped the blanket around herself and got off the bed and walked over to Loki.

To not have to look at her, he turned away. Beth reached out her arm to lay it on his shoulder. >>Loki!<< he turned back. >>It's already too late. When you kissed me last night, I already fell, so hard there was no going back.<< She felt the tension and despair wither inside him, but another emotion grew in that moment. Fear. >>What are you so afraid of?<< she wanted to know. >>How do you know?<< Beth just shrugged. >>I can feel your emotions. Everything you feel.<< he looked at her in shock. >>No one could ever look inside me. I guarded my thoughts.<< Beth had to laugh. It was so obvious that someone who could read thoughts of others must protect his own thoughts at all costs. >>You forgot to properly protect your emotions, I guess. You serve them to me on a silver platter.<<

Loki had to rethink for a second. The fact that Beth couldn't read his mind, but his emotions made him crazy. Besides, it was fascinating because no one had ever cared about what he felt. He exhaled and the expression on his face softened. Then he got down on her couch and demanded that she took a seat next to him. When she sat down Loki slipped a little closer to her and laid his arm around her shoulder. Beth put her head on his shoulder and so they sat there for a while until she fell asleep. When Loki noticed that Beth had fallen asleep, he somehow felt relieved and happy. He liked her, even though he wasn't allowed to. Softly he got up and moved her body down to the couch. Very gently he pulled up the blanket she was still wrapped in so she wouldn't feel cold at night. For a few minutes he watched Beth sleeping before he kissed her forehead and vanished.

Inthe middle of the day Beth woke up on the couch with a huge headache. She stretchedher body and sat up. Last night with Loki was still in her head. She wonderedif there would ever be more between Loki and her, but her thoughts got interruptedby her phone.
