Change of plans.

Chapter 12.

Alayra said nothing, not knowing what to say in the first place. She kept her head facing down.
" Alayra. Look at me." Loki broke the silence and turned to her.
Alayra slowly look up and looked him in the eyes, " Loki, look I just..." before she could finish het sentence, loki leaned closer and whispered " Let me answer the question," and with the last word, he kissed her. His hand grabbed her cheek and leaned in closer.
Alayra tensed, she couldn't believe her eyes. Loki broke the kiss and pulled away . Alayra looked at him in shock.
Loki gave a smile, "Does that answer all your questions?"
Alayra was pleased with the answer, but the game just got dangerous. " Loki, were playing a very dangerous game, and you know it. You know the real reason why I'm here."
Loki looked her deep in her eyes, " I know, but I can't help myself from playing, and besides Odin doesn't matter to me."
Alayra looked at him and slowly for some reason getting angry at him, " Loki you don't get it do you? I need to kill your king so that my kind can takeover! My king wants to kill all of you!" Loki's smile fade and the angry and hurt slowly made it's way out, " Then way are you playing around," Loki stood up, " especially with me?" Alayra jumped up, " Me playing, you started it. Thanks to you I am were I am at the moment. The king would've been dead by now and I would've been long gone, but no...you hade to start you little charm game and throw me of track." Alayra turned her back on Loki.
Loki's expression softened, " I charmed you and threw you of, so you feel the same way?"
Alayra spun back around, she couldn't keep it in any longer , " Yes! I feel the same way. I always have, ever since the day I saw you."
Loki took a step closer to her, " Then why didn't you tell me before?"
Alayra stepped closer, filling the space between then. She looked up into his eyes, with tears slowly starting to form in hers, " I was afraid you would get hurt between the lines, because of me." She wrapped her arms around him and pulled him closer, burring her face into his chest.
Alayra started to softly throw away tears.
Loki wrapped his around her and softly whispered to her, " You don't have to be afraid." Loki gave a soft kiss on her head.

Alayra held onto him. She loved him and didn't want him to get hurt, because of her. She heard his smooth voice whisper those words and the gentle kiss on her head. She looked up and saw him looking at her, eyes full of love.
Loki wiped away the tears from her cheeks, " We will play this game and win."
Alayra started to smile, " We?"
Loki smiled lovingly, " We."
