Never in your life did you ever think you'd be excited at the prospect of marriage, especially one you never chose to have in the first place.

But now, here you were, waiting in the gardens for your betrothed, the second son of the king of Asgard, Loki Odinson.

In the couple of weeks you had known Loki, you felt yourself growing more and more attached to his person. There was always this lightness in your body whenever the two of you were together, like he was lifting your heart, even with just his smile.

Everything about him was amazing. His kindness, the way he carried himself, the occasional mischievous glint in his eye whenever he'd get ready to do something silly and send you both into laughing fits afterwards. Just his overall company made you happy.

You couldn't help but notice a tight feeling in your chest whenever you were with him, like a feeling being caged inside, yet trying to make its way into the light. It reminded you of the stories your mother used to tell you about her and your father before he passed, how it was a sign that she was in love with him.

But it was too early to be in love with Loki, wasn't it?

"There you are."

You pushed the thought aside as you heard that familiar voice, turning around to see the same man you were just pondering over.

"I was wondering if you'd ever show up," you said with a teasing smile.

"Apologies, darling," he said with a small laugh. "I lost track of time in the library."

"I thought you said you've read every book in there?"

"Oh, I have! But you haven't." After he says those words, you watch as he pulls out a couple different books from behind his back and presents them to him. "I...figured maybe I could read my favorites to you."

You tilted your head to the side, your lips curling upwards even further as you felt your heart fluttering.

"Really? That sounds fun."

Loki seemed to share the same excited manner as you did, eagerly taking the seat beside you on the bench when you patted it.

He let you pick the first choice, to which you chose one with a dull blue cover, the two of you sitting together peacefully as the sun gleamed down on your bodies.

Loki's voice was gentle yet accentuated as he read to you, and you conclude in your head that you could fall asleep every night just by listening to the soothing sound of his voice.

Norns, you really were bad for this man, weren't you?

Unfortunately, your peaceful little bubble was broken when a guard came rushing forward, bowing his head as he approached your view.

"My lady, I'm very sorry, but your mother has urgently requested your presence."

You sighed inwardly at the news, feeling your muscles tense in preparation for the encounter you knew was coming. If she was urgently searching for you, it couldn't have been anything good.

"Of course," you sighed, standing up from the bench and giving Loki an apologetic look. "Will you wait for me?"

"Or, better yet, I could accompany you."

You let out a sigh of relief, grabbing his hand. "Oh, you're a lifesaver, let's go."

"Mother?" you called, pushing open the large golden doors. "You're looking for me?"
