Devotion For Salvation (LokixSigyn) ON HOLD

Chapter 19: Lies

It's been a week since Thor left to recover Loki. I couldn't believe how patient I have been. I know that Loki is alive and somehow after all this time I knew he was. My dear Loki is alive and well, and he is coming home.

I can only imagine the pain he must've endured. Falling into an abyss into empty space and ended up on Midgard. I'm just glad he's alive.

I needed to know more about Loki's whereabouts and how he got there and what he was doing. I had to know everything and I couldn't wait for Thor to bring him back. Who knows how long he'll be?

I walk swiftly to Frigga's quarters to find out more. I always come to her for an update on the mission and it's always been the same answer.

"Frigga, I'm sorry for intruding in on you like this but I'm anxious and frankly desperate." I say in a hurry as I walk into her bedroom and sit on her bed. She stares at me in surprise and the smirks at my sudden outburst of joy. I honestly could not stop smiling.

"Of course, my dear, no one has told you a thing. Are you ready for the full truth?" Her smile has faded and my happiness is turned into blue. I felt something wasn't right.

"What do you mean the truth? Is more to the story than there is?" I plead as I get up and take long steps to her.

"I want you to sit down." Frigga asks strictly, I am a bit shocked by this so I sit down in an instant.

"I wanted to wait until I knew more of the situation because what I initially heard devastated me and almost broke me to pieces," Frigga pauses, her eyes fill up with tears, "I wanted to wait to tell you. I waited too long unfortunately, I wasn't sure how to tell you this but this needs to be done, or you will have to deal with the shock when they arrive home."

My whole body goes weak, "Is Loki okay?"

"He was abducted by a being called Thanos. He was tortured almost to the brink of death. Once he succumbed to their wishes he was sent to Midgard to rule. Many people died."

"Loki didn't do that. He wouldn't." I smile in disbelief like this was a joke.

"Loki killed them, Sigyn." Frigga is in tears but her voice remains strong.

I leave without saying anything else. I didn't want to talk. I woke up this morning with determination, and now that I know the truth. I just wish I didn't ask for it. This was worse than Loki dying, finding out Loki killed people has broke my heart more than him dying did. I didn't know who he was anymore. But I want him back, i missed him so much. I love him unconditionally.

I run into my bedroom and slam the door shut. My vanity mirror falls and breaks into a thousand shards of glass. But I don't realize that Imogen was in my room fixing my closet.

"My lady, what is the matter?" She walks around the glass and tries to console me.

"You lied to me! All week you lied! Everyone knew except for me! Get out!" I slap her across the face, she gasps and holds her face where I hit her.

"I'm sorry, my lady, do you want me to get help for you?" Her green eyes are bloodshot and that's what really got me heated.

"Leave me alone." I can feel my face tighten as the tears fall down my cheeks. Imogen leaves and I am alone, with a broken mirror and a broken heart.

I wake up and wipe my face with my hand to clean up the wetness from my tears and drool. I don't remember falling asleep but I do remember hitting Imogen. I feel so terrible, she didn't deserve that, all she did was try comfort me.

I walk to my balcony and look towards where the new bifrost was being built. They were making record time with it. It looks to me that it should be finished in a few days. Maybe Thor and Loki could get back through the bifrost. But how am I ever going to face him, especially Thor, the first thing he did was lie to my face. I was too overwhelmed to realize.

I haven't spoke to Balder since the day I found out Loki was alive. I've completely forgot about him. I still do have strong feelings for him but I couldn't love him the way he deserves to be loved. I could use his smile right now. He will never speak with me again, he probably thinks I used him. Used him to feel alive again.

"Miss Sigyn?" I hear a little voice come from outside the door.

"Come in." I'm nervous for who it is, I hope it's not Imogen.

"Thor will be arriving home." A different servant girl winces, she must be afraid of me. "The queen requests you be there for when they arrive."

"Would you please escort me?" I ask with a smile to seem less of a beast she may think I am.

"Of course, miss Sigyn." She finally smiles and I notice a gap in her teeth, which just makes her appear cuter. I wrap my arm around her little one and we make our way down to the courtyard where Odin will summon them onto Asgard.

My heart quickened by the minute, I am not prepared for what is to come one bit. I'm afraid I'll make a fool of myself...

Thor runs into Loki and I as we walk along the private beaches, where the sand wasn't too coarse and the water is always the perfect temperature for swimming. Which is what we planned on doing today.

"Thor, watch where you are going." Loki grumbles as he dusts of my robe.

"Oh, how many times do I have to tell you Loki?"

"Tell me what?" Loki says in his annoyed voice, it just means he's on the brink of getting angry. You wouldn't like him when he's angry.

"Have some fun!" Thor grabs my hand and he runs into the water bringing me with him. I scream as I descend into the clear waters.

"Thor!" I shout as I laugh almost getting a cramp in my stomach.

I hear a splash and my eyes close shut. I look to see that Loki jumped in as well. When he resurfaces his eyes are closed, he's already taken off his jacket and was shirtless, as he catches his breath he pushes his short black hair back. If Thor wasn't here I'd be all over that. Something about a wet Loki only made me feel like a little girl.

"So can the god of lies beat me in a breath-holding contest?" I tease Loki and he glances at me in astonishment and determination.

"It's never wise to challenge me." Loki winks and we go under the water at the same time.

I stare at him under water and taunt him by making kissy faces at him and trying to tickle him.

His eyes are so green under water. His pale skin was so vibrant as well. His hair gets so black I wish it would look as beautiful everyday; not that is already is.

I wanted to remember him like this forever. My spontaneous Loki...
