All the way from Wonderland: Loki x Fem!reader

Chapter 24 - How Strange

"Your highness," taking a bow before your father, he turned to glance at you before looking to Silas who was half asleep on the smaller throne.

"What is it, Y/n?" He grumbles, taking two steps down and halting.

"I wish to see my mother, that is before she is... executed," you gulp with glossy eyes station their stare to the white marble.

"You may see her at the gallows!" Silas chortles, finally paying attention, jolting up in his seat.

Ignoring his comment, you look back to your father who's usual stoic face upturned to a smug grin. "You may... considering the next time you see her will be in her final moments,"

"Thank you, your highness," you grit sweetly before turning and walking away until he calls out to you once more.

"Send her my false love!" Your father laughs alongside the court as you turn back and nod, moving faster out the hall.

"So what-?" Loki was immediately brought into your embrace, your body shaking lightly as he stood still, taking a moment to process before hugging you back. "Oh, my darling," he sighs, resting his chin upon your head.

"I can't take this anymore... none of this is real... this is just a dream, a bad dream... just wake me up, please," you beg quietly as the group watch from a few meters away with eyes of sympathy.

"I wouldn't hesitate to make this all end if I could, Y/n, but for now we need to do this right," he cupped your face with one hand. "Then, and only then will this end... and I promise you will get the ending you deserve... not this nightmare in a false-fantasy land,"

"Then what?"

He wiped away the gloss falling from your glass like eyes, feeling the heat in your cheeks rise up from the repressed sobs. "Then? We will see,"

"Roses," Anna checks off her list for items your mother would love. She then gasps as the team looks up from their lounging in the library, "I can get Stephen here!" She giggles, hiccuping up a small bubble.

"What? What do you-" You were halted when Anna rushes over to the spell book collection.

"Well, your father, like you, can trace Wonder-spells, and if your mother escaped with the help of a Wonder-spell from the royal spell book," she points to another book, "he would know you had something to do with it,"

"So you want to get... a spell from earth so he won't be able to trace how she got out- Anna you are genius!"

"I know," she scoffs, handing you a spell book on realm travel.

Clint raises his hand, "but why isn't there an earth spell in one of these books?"

"Because Earth magic is almost useless here, so why keep record of them?" Parchment flipped as your finger ran along the words. "But if we get a powerful spell from Earth, really powerful, then it may be useful for a simple escape here," you explain, glancing at a ripped out page on the Midgard section; though you didn't give much thought as the March Hare was known to do such things.

Holding the book out, you start to mumble a few words before drawing a small shape in the air which quickly multiplied to a large wreath, intertwining to form a portal. On the other side was Strange reading quietly, lifting his head at the noise and falling right off his chair with a thud.

"Get over here now," you whisper yell as the sorcerer does a double take and complies.

"What... is this?" He looks into the other realm and inspecting the portal.
