(Loki's POV)

It had been a long day and I couldn't help but be impressed and rather amused by the look Sky had given me, that held me captive and aroused. She sure was something else and never fails to surprise me. I could tell that she was more relaxed, as well as into this whole thing as much as I was. Where will this lead? I guess we'll just have to wait and find out. Tonight...we celebrate!

After that much needed kiss Sky supplied me with, we made our way back with Zach in toe, once again to Asgard. That's where we'll live, occasionally going back and forth between Asgard and Midgard. I knew Zach wasn't happy and hadn't said much, but I refused to let that bring Sky and I down.

(Zach's POV)

She.kissed.him! In front of everyone? What sort of game is she playing at and why is she not letting me in on it? One way or another I'm going to find out.

I've never been to Asgard, obviously. Up until a couple of days ago I thought it wasn't real. I hated teleporting. It hurt and sucked. The end result was ok. It was pretty. I'll, at the very least give it that, but I wasn't going to pretend to be happy for the sake of being happy. I had to stay true to myself and my mission on conquering Loki. It's what keeps me motivated. Sky it seems has a strategy all her own.

Once we landed to "celebrate our victory". I heard Loki say we'd be paying Tom a visit. I'd never met him and I was intrigued. Clearly he only wants to help himself, so I know he's on Loki's side now. Still I wanted to catch a glimpse of him.

I stayed silent as I watched Sky hold hands and walk down the long corridors right along side Loki. She looked at him like she taking her last breath. Like she was seeing him through new eyes. This was just sick, wrong, and weird!

(Tom's POV)

I sat and I thought, and I thought and I sat. I was becoming more and more uncomfortable and agitated. I am use to being active all the time. Every once and a while I'd shout out to the guards planted outside my doors "Let me out! Let me out! Even if it's just for a couple of minutes!" I was brutally ingnored. My words and dry throat wasted. What would Shakespeare do? I often thought how much I felt as though I was in one of his dramatic plays. Maybe I'm dreaming and that's it, I'm in a play? I knew I was kidding myself, but it sure helped with coping.

I couldn't wait till they returned. My mind was left to wonder how things were proceeding, or if they even were at all. Maybe just maybe, wishful thinking on my part, someone had managed to stop him? My only hope died when I heard the roars of several thunderous applause as Asgardians clapped and cheered as Sky and Loki laughed. I knew they were heading my direction.

Sure enough the doors burst open. "Tom!" Loki cheerfully says. "I believe it's time for a celebration. Don't you?" He stands in front of me, arms crossed with both eyebrows raised slightly.

"Sure." I reply solemnly.

"Oh come Tom, besides your acting career, this...this here is the highlight of your life. Don't waste it. Enjoy it. It's time you and I really get to know eachother or have you forgotten our little deal?"

"No!" I say sternly. I look over to Sky and see now that her arm is intertwined around his. she feels...looks different. Somethings off. Loki probably has her under a spell or something. I mean I knew she was liking him, but not this much. She adored him. Was crazy for him. Good luck with that I smirk to myself. Unaware that I had been rolling my eyes until Sky gave me a harsh look. "Sorry, was I disrespecting your king?"

"Not just "my" king Tom. Our king, and he'll be a mighty fine one at that. I can almost guarantee it." She smiled up at him reassuringly.

"I sure hope you can, but I think when it comes to Loki, I know a thing or two about a thing or two. I just want what's best for you."

"Hahaha!!!" Sky starts to laugh. "Tom, Loki...is what's best for me."

Loki stares at her lovingly. "Thank you love. Now if we're all done having our little chat here, let the celebration begin!"

And with that Sky and Loki turned around and walked out. Along with another man I was unfamiliar with. He seemed shy and glared at me all the while.

A minute later Sky runs back in. "Sorry Tom. I almost forgot." She takes the key out and unchains me. My wrists are raw and are killing me. I stand up. My butt also hurts. I rub it a little and whince aloud. I had almost forgot she was standing there. I look down at her and she looks up at me, with those big, brown, beautiful, puppy dog eyes, and I melt.

"Tom," I hear hear quiet, meek voice call out to me. "I want you to know I'm inlove with him, and I've had a huge change in heart. I wanna...ugh! Why can't I find the right words?! I want to rule, just like him. I...um...like the power it gives me and of course him. I don't know exactly what changed or how, but it did. I hope you'll still accept me as a friend."

I was silent a moment. "Sky...I think through all of this we've all changed. We've all been pushed to our very limits. I know I'm serving along side him, but I'm still unsure of my feelings. I haven't got a hold of them yet, but just so we're clear, we'll always be friends." I smile and hug her. She returns a smile and her eyes light back up. "Now, let's have some fun before Loki changes his mind." She giggles at me and we walk out, my arm placed  securely behind her back.

(Sky's POV)

I'm glad I cleared things up with Tom, but clearing things up with Zach will be more than difficult. Tom's so easy going and a gentleman, Loki's so powerful and intelligent, and Zach's been my friend through it all. Three wonderful men, all extremely different.

Tom and I end up in Loki's chambers for his party. He wanted a small intimate gathering, where we would drink, eat, laugh, and let him get to know his new loyal followers.

Zach rarely spoke a word, sat in a corner sulking, not even giving it a try. Tom and Loki drank together and discussed things. I wish I was close enough to hear , but was quickly shushed away by the pair of them. They were no doubt planning things for Midgard. It was nice seeing them chatting. Tom even managed to give Loki a small hug. He winked at me across the room. I just knew we could all make this work and finally get along.

In the wee hours of the morning. Tom went to his new chambers, just as Loki had promised him. No chains, no guards, freedom. Well...as free as one can get from Loki. Tonight though Loki was happy and that made me happy. Zach also went to his new chambers. Loki didn't trust him, so he's probably being watched, and Loki and I...well we made love all.night.long.
