Flames of Green (Loki X Lucifer X OC)

Eve: Part 21

It had been a few days. A very few long days since the group had arrived back in New York. Lucifer and Amenadiel had left swiftly to locate Eve. Sigyn was attempting to deal with the knowledge that demons from Hell were roaming around Earth seemingly without causing harm. Someone had to be leading them. And it wasn't Mazikeen and it certainly wasn't Lucifer. So who would be so bold to challenge the King of Hell and steal the key to unlock the gates of Hell and rally a demon army to invade Earth simply because they were upset that their ruler had put someone else in charge? Sigyn had no ideas. 

Sigyn pondered the swirling thoughts in her head as she sat in her favorite spot on the balcony of Stark Tower. Gazing out at the sky as the bright colors of the sunset shined before her. She thought back to her time as Jennifer Mason. How Jennifer often sat at her window at her home and scratched the top of her cat's head. Perfectly content to just look upon whatever sight was outside her window. She had a normal and peaceful life. And when without her memories; Jennifer Mason enjoyed her life. Sigyn hoped that one day there would be no demon invasions or memory losses. Just her and her closest friends and family living their lives in serenity. Maybe one day. Sigyn was snapped out of her thoughts at the sound of the balcony door opening behind her. 

"Why do you always hide from me?" Loki's voice sounded from behind her. 

"I do not hide." Sigyn replied. Loki came up behind her chair and wrapped his arms around her, placing his head on one of her shoulders. 

"You hide." Loki said softly. Sigyn sighed, she knew this was true. Deep down she did hide from Loki. He didn't always understand why she needed solitude at times. She held memories from so many pasts that she needed time alone to quiet the noise. She knew when she distanced herself from him that it hurt him, but he needed to be okay with it. 

"I do not intend to hide." Sigyn said. Loki kissed her cheek and nuzzled his face into her hair. 

"Come back to me when you are ready." Loki whispered into her ear and gave her cheek one last kiss. He stood and left her to her thoughts on the balcony. 

A few hours later Sigyn found Loki, Thor, and Vision watching Wanda and Nic spar in the training room. Using their magic to attack each other. Keeping their magical battle skills sharp. Wanda threw Nic across the room and he chuckled loudly clapping his hands as he lay flat on his back. Wanda walked over to him and put her hand out to offer to help him up. He initially placed his hand in her's but then yanked her to the ground next to him. The two laughed so hard they held their stomachs with both their hands. Thor smiled at the sight of his nephew enjoying a joyful moment with a friend. Sigyn raised an eyebrow toward Loki. 

"What?" Loki asked.

"Right over your head." Sigyn replied then shook her head giggling to herself. Loki brushed it off. He truly was oblivious to his son's affection toward Wanda. But she was with Vision. And she loved him with everything she had in her. There would be nothing that could separate them.

"Mother!" Nic shouted as he jogged over to Sigyn and pulled her into a hug. He towered over her and held her tight. Sigyn patted his back and pried herself out of her son's grip. 

"Happy to see me? I didn't go anywhere." Sigyn said with a soft smile. 

"You hide on that balcony far too often." Nic replied. 

"See. You hide." Loki said with a wink. Sigyn rolled her eyes. It was true, she hid. But now that her son was noticing her absence she decided maybe it was time to be more present among her loved ones. Especially her family. 

The training room door opened and Tony strutted in. 

"Wings are back." Tony announced. 

"Wings?" Wanda asked. 

"It's what he calls the angels." Thor said with a chuckle. 

"Oh." Wanda replied then walked to Visions side and took his hand in hers. A wide smile on her face suggesting she held a deep and undying love for him. Nic stiffened. She would never be his. He needed to accept it. But easier said than done. 

The group followed Tony out of the training room and into the main living area where Amenadiel, Lucifer, and a short woman with long dark brown hair and beautiful eyes sat on the sofa. The woman jumped up from her seat and skipped over to Sigyn. She pulled her into a hug and sighed happily. 

"Yay yay yay! When Lucifer told me you got your memories back I was so excited!" The girl said. Sigyn looked to Loki with wide eyes. She didn't recognize this woman at first. After a few awkward long moments in their embrace the woman pulled back from Sigyn and her beautiful face beamed with joy. "Shit! You don't remember me do you? I knew you as Jenny. But like forever ago. Like seriously you were so fun back then. It's me, Eve." She said. The name rang in Sigyn's ears. She knew who Eve was and she even had some memories lightly tapping at the front of her mind of having some sort of interaction with her but it was all so blurry. 

"I'm sorry. I do remember you. It's just hard to sort out so many of the lives I have lived." Sigyn admitted. She decided that she would be honest about the challenges that plagued her mind. No matter how hard it would be to admit. Loki rubbed her arm assuringly. Being so emotionally vulnerable was not easy for the Goddess. 

"Lucifer says you can help us with the demon problem?" Thor asked over Sigyn's shoulder. 

"Oh! Yeah! I have a feeling an old flame of mine might be behind this demon pickle of ours. I don't know all the details but I am super sure that Lucifer can fill you all in. Can't you honey?" Eve said turning and looping her arm with Lucifer's and rester her head against him. Lucifer looked over to Sigyn and Loki and chuckled awkwardly. 

"Indeed my dear. Um... shall we do this over a bourbon? I am famished." Lucifer said. Sigyn smiled awkwardly back at him but not Loki. Loki had a scowl on his face and his arms were crossed. 

Is someone jealous?
