The Broken Wolf ~1~ (Loki X Male)

chapter 9

he stood there frozen with what tumbled out of your mouth, staring right through you, looking for at least a tiny lie in what you said. but nothing. he slowly let go of your hand and changed back to his normal form, still staring through your soul but you didn't look away. all of a sudden he vanished, leaving you standing there......alone.

you still stood there for a good minute or so you decided to go to the helipad. walking back into your room you grabbed your blanket and walked out before climbing the stairs to your favorite place of the tower. still, in thoughts, you walked towards the edge and sat there. unable to sleep you let all the unwanted thoughts in as always. welcoming the demons that lived in your head for years, letting them tell you the things that have already been embedded in your mind, you let them break the already broken heart.

You felt your eyes getting droopy in the morning as you sat there the whole night, you had bags under your eyes and you looked a little pail due to no sleep. you normally don't sleep properly and now that you didn't sleep the whole night made things worst. you got up, stretched a little, and walked back down to the living room. you prayed to whatever god there was that no one would be awake. you didn't want to see anyone there but since when has luck been on your side.

"morning frosty" tony said "mornin" you grumbled and he clearly gave you that look saying 'if you don't tell me imma make you' but you ignored him and went to make yourself some coffee.

"did you even sleep last night, you don't look so good" steve asked a little concerned "I did...sleep" you said while yawning "of course you did, cause your face says it all" clint snorted, you tossed the empty cup on the table at him but he caught it, the thing you didn't notice was a certain trickster staring at you

Steve made pancakes for you as always, but while you were eating you almost dropped your head onto it which was steve's last straw "that's it. come on, back to bed" steve said while walking towards you and throwing you onto his shoulder, you tried telling him you were fine but were too tired to even move for some reason, not a normal tired you thought.

after tucking you in bed, since you passed out the minute your head hit the pillow steve walked back to the living room and gathered everyone there "I think he's is sick, he was burning up earlier and it doesn't feel like a normal fever" at that Loki look up and tony went off to your room to see how bad your fever is "he has a soft spot for that kid" said bucky from the stairs "yeah....he does. now come on let's see how's he doing" nat said as she walked off in the direction of your room

sight they came to was truly interesting as they got in. tony was stuck in your death grip, your legs wrapped around his hips while sitting on his lap and your head snuggled in the crook of his neck "ash your burning up, you need to take these pills" tony desperately tried to get you to eat those medicines but you shook your head and whimpered painfully

Loki decided to appear out of nowhere giving everyone a heart attack (except nat of course) he just smirked "he's going through a moon fever, this happens every month for a werewolf but it hits twice than normal for an omega. that is the reason for his fever right now and no pills will work for this and they tend to get extra clingy......like that" he said pointing at you

"then what will help?" tony asked while feeling you wrap your arms tighter around his neck "I swear he's gonna kill me" tony muttered under his breath "nothing can help really, a lot of bed rest should do. this normally lasts a week" he explained again "and we should believe you?" nat asked judgingly, Loki just shrugged and pointed at thor "you can ask thor if it's true" he simply said to which everyone turned to look at thor

"It is true" thor simply said "kid you're gonna chock me to death" you slowly let go and looked at him and the position you're in, your face already looked flushed and this did not help. your face grew even hotter due to embarrassment "i-I'm sorry" you said quietly while getting off him and laying down on the bed. you looked up to see everyone and even Loki, you smiled at him to which he returned a small one.

"coldness will help though" he said, still looking at you "but ash don't you have ice powers?" steve asked "I do but I wasn't technically born with it. it was forced so I still get affected a little by the cold and all that" you explained but the attention got switched to tony as he got a call so he went out to talk while nat adjusted the temperature of the room 

few minutes later Tony came back in rushing "guys we got a mission let's go, ill brief you all later and ash stay in bed till we come back. and you, don't try anything stupid" he said pointing at Loki later.

everyone left leaving you and Loki in your room. it was quiet for a moment before he sat at the edge of your bed while the airconditioning cooled you down a little but not completely "I'm sorry about yesterday" you said while looking at your lap, ice-cold fingers gently lifted your chin, giving you a chance to look at those beautiful emerald eyes "you have nothing to apologize for little omega, it is I that should. and I am deeply sorry" as he gazed into your blue eyes he slowly took his hand from under your chin and placed it at the back of your neck too which you moaned from how good it felt. you heard him chuckle and hold you close to him in a hug

"no one has seen me past the monster I am but you, little omega....thank you" he whispered in your ear, you wanted to reply, say something but his ice-cold hands and his minty scent were lulling you to sleep "sleep little wolf. I'll protect you" he whispered in your ear again and that was it, you drifted off to sleep feeling comfortable and protected in his arms.
