Chapter 13

Dear Steven,
I am getting better, I promise. Don't worry about me, just focus on the fight. I too forgive you. I should never have lashed out at you. Today was the first day I've been out in the gardens since you left therefore I am out of bed just feeling nauseous every now and again. But I haven't actually been sick. The burning up has disappeared too. I sure hope the fighting goes your way. Any news on Thanos' attending the fight? Or Loki? Either way I'm glad you and my family are okay. Just keep me updated please.
Yours sincerely (y/n) Rogers.

"Your highness! We have news!" Shouted Scott, one of the Knights. "It's Thanos. We had some of the knights search each part of the land of Asgard, but he is nowhere to be found. I fear he is no longer in Asgard. But somewhere else. Maybe closer to America. He knew we would come and help fight in Asgard. So now he may have gone to our home land as we are almost defenceless there."

"Send a letter and some of our best knights back to America. We will stay and help fight the rest of his men off. Once complete we will head home unless we hear otherwise." Steven responded.

Scott nodded. "We were also given this your majesty." He then passed the King a letter. "We presume it's your Wife."

Steven took the letter. "Thank you. Now go get the best knights and follow my orders." He said while nodding.

Later that day when the sun was beginning to set he read the letter from his wife. He felt a wave of relief rush over him as he read she was getting better. But still he just wanted her to be in his arms again. He missed her dearly. He wished he could just go home but he knew he had to fight either way.

But the troubles just got worst.

The King and his men were now on there way home. They had been gone a week and a half, this was an early return. They defeated all of Thanos' men and had news Thanos was now on his home turf. It was safe.

They all arrived back on the soil of America. Crowds of American peasants covering the pebbled streets as the King and his Knights made they way to the castle.

"Thank goodness your okay!" One peasant shouted.

"When's the heir to be born?" Another screamed.

Steven just ignored them all until finally they reached the gates of the palace. He jumped off his horse to look up and see his Mother and (y/n) standing there waiting. His wife giving him a gentle wave in which he returned. He passed the reins of his horse to a maid and then began running towards his wife. Once he reached her he wrapped his broad arms around her.

"I'm so glad your okay.." he whispered into her ear. He then pulled away to give her a sweet kiss on her soft, pink lips. He then turned to his mother. "How are you doing Ma?" He asked still holding his wife.

"I am well thank you Steven." She answered as she smiled slightly.

(y/n) was confused on why Steve had not a single graze on his face but she'd be shocked later on.

Then Joseph, James, George and Sam made there way up the stairs leading towards the entrance of the castle. Joseph then pulled Sarah into his embrace while the others walked into the palace after bowing to the former and current Queen.

Suddenly all the other knights turned to face the gate guarding the castle. Then a man wearing green riding a black horse trotted in. All knights pulled out the swords.

"Wait!" (y/n) shouted before she began running towards the man.

"(y/n)! Don't go near him! He's a threat!" Steve shouted as he began running after his wife.

Clint one of the knights grabbed (y/n). "I'm sorry I can't let you do this." He spoke.

"It's my brother! I insist you let me go immediately." The Queen then spoke as she was let go to then be quickly grabbed by Steve.

"He is still a threat. He is a Thanos fighter dear." Steve then said gently.

Loki then jumped off his horse before starting to step towards his sister.

"Stop right there." Spoke Bruce another knight.

"I think put him into a dungeon cell, we can speak from there.." Steve said hesitantly while looking at his wife while tears formed in her eyes. "It's for our own safety (y/n)..."

Clint and Bruce then grabbed Loki roughly and dragged him to the dungeons.

"Please be gentle!" (y/n) then spoke as her voice cracked. It was overwhelming it was the first time she had seen him in almost 10 years. But also he is still her brother and he is being treated so unfairly even if he is with Thanos.

The tears then began to fall as she then pulled away from her husband.

"I'm sorry sweetheart.." he whispered just loud enough that (y/n) could hear him.

She then noticed him clutch his side. "You are hurt.." as the Queen then went to examine her husband.

"No I am good darling. Now let's talk to this brother if yours-"

"He can wait. You cannot." (y/n) interrupted. "Scott can you go and grab Darlene, thank you." The Queen asked one of the knights.

"This isn't necessary." Steve protested.

"Be quiet Steven." And with that they walked back inside.

Overcome with mixed feelings.
