MEGAN'S POV

When I hugged Loki's body, I was surprised by how cold he was. Like he had been locked inside a freezer or something. I flinched and moved away from him. "Loki..." I shook him awake, careful not to touch him for too long. "Loki wake up. I need to ask you something."

"Whaaaa.." He mumbled in his sleep and turned away from me, burying his body under the covers, face and all.

"Really?" I pulled the covers off of him. "And you say I'm the childish one in this relationship?" I rolled my eyes.

"What is it then?" He sighed tiredly and turned back to me, his eyes still closed.

"I want you to tell me where you disappeared to at dinnertime." I said. "Your skin is so abnormally cold right now. I'm concerned."

"Can't it wait? We have to be up early in the morning. Let's talk tomorrow my love."

"No. We're going to have this talk right now. I want to know what you have been up to." I said firmly. "Why all the secrecy Loki? Don't you trust me, babe?"

"Of course I do." He answered, and finally his eyes slowly opened to look at me. "If i tell you...Just promise me you won't get mad."

"I won't get mad."

"Promise?" He pointed his pinky finger at me, something I had taught him some time back.

I shook my head and smiled at how cute he was being. "Okay, I promise." I swore, hooking my pinky finger with his. Now I was even more curious to know what he was hiding.

"I was at the dungeons." He confessed.

"The dungeons?" I frowned. What the hell was he doing there? "Why?" I asked him.

"I'm hiding frost giants there. I brought them from Jotunheim this evening. For tomorrow."

"Why would you--" I suddenly paused and gasped, realisation finally hitting me."LOKI!" I growled angrily and hit him with a pillow across his face.

"Darling, please..."

"Don't you 'darling please' me, Loki! You promised you weren't going to sabotage Thor's coronation!"

"You don't understand anything, Megan. By doing this, I'm saving all of us." He said, now fully awake. "Thor is not ready to take over Odin's place. Have you seen how reckless he gets?"

"I've seen him drunk. It was terrible." I admitted.

"See? That's not how a king should behave, now is it?" He said. "Besides, this is just temporary. In the end Thor will still wear that crown. When the time is right." He added.

I let out a long sigh."Are you sure about what you're doing?" I asked him. "I remember you telling me that you weren't that popular here. I don't want people to have another reason to scorn you."

"I have the best intentions at heart, Megan."

"I know." I said, moving my head to kiss him. "But they don't know that. They don't know you like I do."

Loki smiled lazily and kissed me back."I don't care what others think." He slurred,"Your opinion is the only one that matters to me, my love. As long as we are there for each other, we'll be alright. Don't you agree?"

"I agree."

"That's my girl." He purred,gently biting on my lower lip. "Now," he whispered, running the tip of his cool silver tongue all round my parted lips, "be a good pet and lay down. I'm going to punish you for waking me up."

"Punishment?" I was suddenly breathless.

"Yes, pet." He hummed, kissing and licking his way down my throat. The feeling of his tongue on my skin sent shivers down my spine. His hands softly moved up my thighs in a gentle caress, and excitement rippled throughout my body as he pulled my panties down my legs; I couldn't wait for him to make me his once again.

SIF'S POV

I had already changed into my night clothes when I heard a knock on my door. "It's open." I answered as I slipped inside my covers. Seconds later the double doors swung open and Zulfa walked inside, still dressed in her work clothes.

"What are you doing here, servant?" I asked her.

"I should be asking you the same, Lady Sif." She retorted. "What are you doing there, in bed?"

"Well, its--"

"Hush." She interrupted me,"there is no time to waste. We must leave now."

"Leave?" I frowned at her, now thoroughly confused. "Leave and go where?"

"If we are going to get rid of that Midgardian, then we must do it as soon as possible if our plan is to be effective." She replied." I know somebody who can help us a great deal. We are going to her."

I slipped out of bed and grabbed one of my robes. "First of all, we never really discussed anything. So I don't know what plan you're talking about." I told her. "Secondly, who is this person and where does she stay?"

"You may have heard of the witch Amora, am I right? She lives in the south."

"Yes, I've heard of her." I nodded."You are related to her?"

"Yes. She is my aunt."

"You have the same eyes. Very green, and very evil." I commented. "I've always thought you reminded me of someone, and now I know it's her."

"Well, you don't get to choose your family, now do you?" Zulfa shrugged. "So are you coming or not?"

"I still don't see how she's going doing to help with my situation." I crossed my arms over my chest and slowly started pacing around the room ."Is she going to give me some kind of love potion?"

"No. Something even better." Zulfa smiled. "Listen to this: She may just know where Sigyn is."

I stopped in my tracks."What did you just say?"

"You heard me right, Lady Sif." She said,her eyes twinkling with excitement now."Just think about it. What better way to drive out that filthy Midgardian than to bring in the one woman Prince Loki loved more than he ever did her?"

I thought about her words for a moment and found myself smiling as well. "I like the way you think." I said.

"Well, of course." She smirked proudly. "Just imagine her despair as she watches the love of her life being snatched away right in front of her eyes."

"She won't stand it. She'll be miserable." I laughed heartily, happiness radiating through me as I thought of ruining Megan.

"Well then, let's get going, shall we?"

"Of course. Lead the way."
