The Saviour (Loki Love Story)

Chapter 7 Falling for the God of Mischief

It's only a few days to the invasion and I can't seem to get Loki out of mind. He's been soo nice to me and he's done so much. My heart beats faster when I'm around him and I don't know to do. He's a God for god sake and I don't think he would ever feel the same way about me.

Do I love him?

I pull myself out of my thoughts as I find a room suitable another for training. I want to test my powers so I will know what I can do and capable off. Loki had given me some fresh clothes to practice in so I wouldn't rip the dress.

As I stand in the middle of the room, I close my eyes feeling the magic flowing inside me. I begin producing fire balls as I levitate in the air. My magic gotten stronger. Soon I'm producing magic from all the known elements and controlling them with ease.

As I stop using my magic, I begin to feel tired.

I take a breath when I hear a voice from the back of the room, "You are breathtaking..."

Loki is leaning on the wall, smirking at me. I feel my heart beating faster as he approaches me.

He stands in front of me, "Show me what you can do."

I raise my eyebrows, "You want me to fight you?"

"Yes."

"No, I might hurt you."

He takes my hand as he reassures me, ""You won't."

My hand begins to glow and I fire a fireball at him. He dodges it and soon we are in a full out fight. I barely miss his attacks. He aims for my-side and I barely dodge it. But I end up slipping forward. Losing my balance, I fall into Loki and end up on the floor. My body on top of his and our lips close.

"You really are breathtaking."

My heart is beating faster then ever before and that's when I realize, oh no.

"Thanks..." I get up off him and he pulls himself to his feet.

"I better shower." I say as I begin to leave the room.

"I shall see you at dinner." I hear him say as I leave the room.

As soon as I get to my room I shut the door. I love Loki. Oh my god, I love Loki. What am I gonna do? Focus Scarlett, you will help him with your mission and then leave. There's no point following your heart, he won't feel the same way. I will help him and then leave.

Loki's POV

As I watch her leave I feel the connection towards her and I. What I feared could  happen has. I've fallen for her.

She is most remarkable person I have ever met. And so beautiful. She wasn't even afraid of my true form. At least with her company I can finally escape Thanos grasp. I just doubt she would ever feel the same way.

Scarlett's POV

It has been a few hours since I had trained with Loki and we had just finished dinner. He had again made the left over food disappear with the flick of his hand and made wine glasses appear.

Taking a sip, I decide to get down to business as I ask, "What did Thanos want you to do exactly?"

"He wants me to open the portal and lead the army to conquer earth. If I try to stop it, he will come after me and kill me."

I nod, "Ok and I guess the Avengers are supposed to be the main threat." He nods and I continue, "Is it possible we could make the portal have a off switch. So the Avengers can switch it off."

"Yes, it could work. That way he would think I lost not sabotaged it."

"Is it possible?"

He smirks as he gets up, "Let's find out."

I jump out of my chair and follow him to where they are building the portal. We approach a man called Dr Selvig, a man who was a scientist at Shield. He turns to us, his eyes shining blue. Loki mentioned early that to control the men, he used the sceptres magic to control their minds. He didn't like doing it but he had to.

Loki calls to Dr Selvig, "You, is it possible to build a safety lock system incase a problem may arise?"

"Another power source similar to the cube could cut the power source."

Loki's Sceptre magically appears in his hand and he shows it to him, "Like this?" He nods, "Build it in." Loki orders and Selvig runs off to fulfill his orders.

One step closer to saving Loki but one step closer to losing him.
