Unlike Loki

Chapter 95

(Loki)

Laufey had let me go in one piece.

Our deal had been made. We had even shook on it.

I laughed to myself as I realized that I had made up to my biological father by allowing him to kill me.

My life was wonderful.

Heimdall had told me that Anna was actually going to come to Asgard. That she was planning on coming here tomorrow. That's what made me set the date.

He also told me that they were still contorting her mind, that she may not be coming here on good intentions.

I didn't even care.

I just wanted to see her, one last time.

I would try to talk to her of course, try and make her snap out of it. If I could get the glaze to turn into their natural shine, then it would be a successful day.

I figured she's come early in the day, so I told Laufey to come and bring his minions (although I called them his warriors to his face) after the sun had set. It felt like I was inviting him for dinner.

I suppose I was.

I was just the main course.

If Anna came alone, it would give me time. If she came with her brothers, things would be more complicated.

I prayed to Valhalla that she came by herself.

I felt strange. I didn't feel sad or worried or even scared. I felt relieved.

What I was about to do would be the ultimate sacrifice. I was giving up my life for Anna. So that she could live, finally, actually live.

I guess this is what being good feels like.

I just hoped she would forgive me.
