The Saviour (Loki Love Story)

Chapter 25 Reunited

Scarlett's POV

The last few days have been anything but peaceful. Odin and Frigga want to have the wedding in a few days and believe me I want to. It's just...I keep thinking about my parents and how I wish they could be here. To give me away. But they think I'm dead.

No matter what I do. It just won't leave my mind.

As I wanted to avoid everything, the moment the sun rose, I hid in the library. So, currently I'm sitting in the library in front of the fireplace, using my powers to manipulate the fire, trying to get those thoughts out my mind. That's when I hear the door open and footsteps.

Instantly, I know it's Loki.

"Scarlett...what's bothering you? You've been acting strange for days. Are you having second thoughts?"

I turn to see him standing beside my chair, "Off course not it's just...I wished my parents could be here. To see me down the aisle. Don't worry Loki, I want to get married no matter what. I just can't stop thinking about it." 

He smiles as he kisses me on the cheek, "Don't worry, I will sort out the rest of the arrangements. Just rest, you look tired."

He's right, I haven't slept properly in days. I lay back in the chair and close my eyes, as I hear him leave the room. Maybe once I've rested, my pesky thoughts might be easier to deal with.

Loki's POV

It didn't take me long to locate Scarlett's parents. As she explained about her parents, I looked into her mind and saw where she used to live. And by using what I had found out, I am now on earth, standing outside her parents house.

I cautiously approach the door but suddenly it comes open, a woman and man stand there. I recognise them as her parents but they instantly point there guns at me.

"Go away, you are not welcome here Asgardian." Her mother states.

How does she know I am Asgardian?

"We haven't done anything wrong so tell Odin to leave us alone. We suffer enough as it is." Her father explains.

Her mother nods, "Please leave."

They are about to shut the door as I say, "Scarlett is alive." They open the door wider, "Listen, I have no idea what quarrel you have with my father. But I've come here for Scarlett. Please give me 5 minutes to explain and I will gladly leave."

They gesture for me to come in and I follow them inside. I go into the living room and I sit down on the sofa opposite them.

"My name is Loki. Before I attacked New York, I attacked Shield and I found Scarlett. She was being tortured. But when I escaped, I brought her with me. I healed her, protected her and we fell in love. The reason I'm here today is because we are going to be married in a few days, and she wants you to be there."

Her mother has tears in her eyes as she says, "She's really alive. Oh, my god. I don't know what to say."

"Will Odin even allow us to return to Asgard? We were banished." Her father explains.

They were banished? No, no matter what, Scarlett needs her parents. Even if Odin doesn't like it, they need to be there for her.

I shake my head, "He must allow it... Scarlett wants you there."

Her mother nods, "We have to go."

Time skip

In seconds, I teleport us back into Asgard and we are standing right outside the library doors, where my beloved Scarlett is. Her parents are behind me as I push the door open and they follow me inside. Scarlett is sitting by the fire, reading a book about spells.

I smirk as I say, "Love, I have a surprise for you."

"Loki...I'm not in the mood for surprises..." she turns around and then she drops her book, staring in shock at her parents now standing in front of me.

Scarlett's POV

I turn around to face Loki and I'm so stunned, that my book slips out of my hand. Standing just before him, is my parents. But... it can't be... they think I am dead.... How can they be here?

"Mum? Dad?" I ask, still in complete shock.

My mother smiles, tears beginning to flood down her cheek, "Scarlett... is it really you? My girl."

In seconds, I run into their arm as they hug me. It's really them. They are here. Oh, my god...

I reluctantly pull out of their arms as I wipe my tears away, "How did you guys even get here?"

"Your soon to be husband brought us here." My father says.

I look at Loki as I see him leaning against the wall with a small smile on his face, "You said you wanted your parents at our wedding. I had to fulfil your wish."

I smile, "Thank you."

"Anything for you love." He says with a warm smile.

Then the doors open and Odin comes in, my parents freeze but quickly bow. Wait a second... they know who Odin is?

Odin gestures for them to stand at ease, "Hello Cecilla, Jackson."

"Your majesty..." My mother greets, "We know we are banished but we haven't seen our daughter since she was young and we need to be here for her wedding day. As soon as it's over, we will go."

My eyes widen, "Banished?!!!!! You are Asgardians?!!!!"

Odin nods, "That would explain a lot. I'm afraid I haven't been honest with you Scarlett. When you came here, you were already an Asgardian. I didn't realise until after I tried to give you my gift."

I stare at my parents, "You are Asgardians? Why were you banished?"

My mother smiles as she takes my hand, "We had committed some terrible crimes in the past but we changed and had you. We never realized you had come an Asgardian, as we came mortals when we came to earth. We never thought you had inherited the Asgardian Gene."

"You can both stay for the wedding. Guest rooms have been prepared for you. Please come." My parent both kiss me on the cheek before following Odin out the room.

I feel Loki's arms wrap around me which makes me smile, "I can't wait until we are married."

He chuckles, "Neither can I."

I turn around to face him, "I love you."

He leans in and kisses my neck, whispering, "I love you more."
