Loki had been acting very strange lately. I mean, he has his moments every now and then, but the past couple of days, Loki's been exceptionally grumpy and whiny all the time. No matter what I would do for him, he'd still to act like nothing suited him and I was starting to get worried and frustrated with him. I've been with Loki for about ten months now and he has never acted this way towards me ever until this week and I wanted to know what's wrong with him.
Of course, Loki wouldn't tell me if anything was bothering him. He'd say it's nothing for me to worry about and just go on being all grumpy again. That was when I decided to do some more research on Norse mythology to see if that says anything why Loki was acting this way.
I couldn't really find anything that would help. It was mostly just the usual; Loki is the trickster god, Loki is a Frost Giant and not Aesir, and all the stories of the tricks he has pulled throughout the years. Then I decided to search up Frost Giants to see if there was any information on them that might explain anything. I was unsuccessful there too. The only thing that might remotely help was that it said Frost Giants shared a few characteristics with animals than any other beings in the Nine Realms, but that wasn't a lot to go by.
After a while, I just figured maybe that it was some form of PMS in Frost Giants that even males get and left it at that. Hopefully, whatever Loki's going through right now will pass and I'll have my God of Mischief back again. Accepting this, I put up my laptop, went to the bathroom, and started to wash up for bed. Once I was changed into my nightgown, I went to the bedroom to find Loki already in bed, curled up under the covers on his side.
He made no acknowledgement that I was there as I slipped under the sheets on my side and got comfortable. I figured he must have already been asleep already. Then I leaned over to run my hand through his dark hair a few times just before I placed a kiss on his shoulder.
"Goodnight Loki. I love you," I whispered to him before turning over. He gave out a soft grunt and I soon fell asleep beside him.
By the time morning rolled around, I woke up to find myself constricted by two strong arms and their owner was nuzzling his face into the side of my neck. Not that I was complaining, but this was weird for Loki to be this clingy to me this early in the morning.
"Loki?" I asked him. "Are you alright honey?"
Loki completely ignored my question and continued to hold me closer to himself. Under the covers, I felt something hard nudge against my thigh and I was confused on what it was, until I realized what it could be and I started to blush.
"Loki," I called his name again. "You know I can feel you against my leg."
That caught his attention and he pulled back from me. He lifted the sheets to look down at himself and then cursed when he saw what I was talking about. That was when he brought his hands down there to take care of his "problem."
"Loki!" I fussed as I pulled away his arm to keep him from jerking off himself. "Seriously, please tell me what's wrong! You're starting to scare me!"
He looked at me for a moment, confused by my actions. It looked like he was about to shout at me for stopping him, but he calmed himself once he saw how clearly worried I was about him. Then he seemed like he was contemplating how he was going to tell me what was going on.
Suddenly, everything that I had read last night before I went to bed started to make sense on what was going on with Loki. The moodiness, the clinginess, and his random erection all led up to the fact that he must be in heat. It completely made sense because animals go through it all the time and since he's a Frost Giant, he must have to suffer from it too. Poor Loki. I felt bad that he was going through that.
