Starks Goddess {3}

Thirty-Two

Thor walked through the palace, escorted by guards, two in front, and two behind. After Loki had dragged Izzy from the room earlier, Odin had told him he was free to roam, but would be under guard at all times. Informing him he needed to see his people, to go to the city, be with them, for in time, he would one day rule Asgard. Thor didn't want that, maybe in the past, years ago, hot headed, naive, arrogant, but not now. Not after he had spent so long on Midgard, falling in love with Jane, his friends on the team. Knowing the truth now, of what Odin and Frigga had done to his brother, and to Izzy, Thor couldn't help but wonder, what else had his parents done, to manipulate for their own personal gain.

He walked along the hall, that led to the private quarters, and he glanced up for a moment before dropping his gaze. When it registered in his head, he halted his steps, the guards around, stopping with him. He couldn't help it, but a smile crept onto his face, as he took in what he was seeing. Walking toward him, were Loki and Izzy... 'Your majesties..'... He bowed to them, and chuckled.

Loki was in his Johtunn form, dressed exactly as how the King of the frost giants should be, but it was Izzy that stole the most attention. She was dressed in what he could see was armour. Fitted trousers, boots, corset and tunic, in black and a pale shade of blue trim adoring it, to match Lokis skin... 'Seems we are ready to get this over with, right my king?..'.. Thor watched Izzy smirk to Loki who raised their linked hands, placing a kiss to her knuckles.

'You have no idea, my queen. Are you ready to take your throne?..'.. Loki grinned back at her. Thor was sure he was missing something, and then he realised it, that look between them.

'You are-..'.. Thor felt a stab of sympathy, and heartbreak for his brother and his friends. He knew how much Izzy and Loki didn't want to do this, but now realising that his parents had laced their drinks this morning, in a bid to force Loki and Izzy, he hated Odin and Frigga all the more.

'Was I too loud?..'.. Izzy looked at him.

'Uh, w-w-well, I um..'.. Thor stuttered out, and Izzy reached out, patting his cheek.

'Don't be embarrassed if you heard us Thor, it was hot..'.. She skirted around him and held her head high, heading down the hall... 'Come now my king..'.. She glanced back over her shoulder... 'We don't want to keep our people waiting for me any longer, do we?..'.. Thor could see the pure menace in her eyes, but this was something different. He had seen all sides of her, seen the glimmer of each one, but this, this wasn't her. He turned his head to Loki, who had that knowing smirk.

'Let's go, brother..'.. Loki clapped him on the shoulder, giving it a squeeze... 'I wish to see what my queen of mischief, is going to get up to..'.. There was something in the way that was said, told Thor that these two were upto no good. Something had happened, clearly, but he wasn't sure of what, not yet.

'I am sure Odin and Frigga will be happy to know you have..'.. Thor gestured to his brother, as they headed back down the hall, following after Izzy.

'Our desire for one another was already building. What was in our drink only helped us to cross the line. Have no fear, all will be well..'.. Loki chuckled, striding ahead. Thor glanced to the guards around them, seeing they were attempting to keep up the pace, even he had to quicken his steps.

'Brother, why do I get the sense, there is more going on?..'.. Thor spoke quietly, as they made their way to the throne room.

'I have no idea what you mean..'.. Loki turned his head slightly, smirking at him.
