This belongs to 'Green eyes', 'Golden heart' and 'Silver Tongue'
Susan was on her way back home from doing some errands while humming joyfully. She was excited. This afternoon Loki wanted to take her to Asgard to introduce her to his parents and show her his home. It was a big step for their relationship to not only show it in this realm but also his own. He was the prince after all and to be named the woman by his side was still an unbelievable thought. A giggle escaped her. She felt like a teenage girl at her first date.
"Susan Stark?"
A smoky female voice suddenly interrupted her thoughts and out of nowhere a woman was standing beside her. Susan didn't know where she came from, not having heard or seen somebody approach. She was dressed in a white rope, decorated with golden ornaments and she was tall. Susan had to grain her neck to look in her sharp eyes, that seemed way too old for what she seemed to be. Just like Loki's.

Something threatening and cold evaded her and everything inside Susan screamed for her to run away, but she couldn't. The ageless eyes had captured her, hypnotized her and instead of running, she found herself nodding to her question. "Yes"
"Good"
Unexpected the back of her hand hit Susan's cheek and it felt like a brick had smashed into her face. She swayed and fell, her head hit the pavement. The last thing she saw before she blacked out was the strange female looming over her with disgust written all over her face. "Humans. So brittle. I don't get what he wants from someone like you"
*** Loki was smiling satisfied when he left the jewellery shop in Manhattan. The small box he just had picked up was safely stored in the pocket of his cloak. He had gotten this piece especially made for Susan and it simply was perfect. Later that day, he would take her to Asgard and that night-
A sudden unwholesome feeling clenched his heart the air escaped his lungs in gasp. Something was totally wrong.
Not here.
With Susan! Something was happening to her.
He straightened back up and sent out his magic to seek for her, but he couldn't find even a single trace. A crow landed on his shoulder. It was pulsating with a dark energy that he unfortunately just knew too well. The bird looked up at him with eyes that weren't the one of an animal and he believed to read amusement in them. The next second, the crow erupted in blue flames. When they died down a piece of paper and a single black feather floated towards the ground. He caught both, then read what had been written on the paper in elegant letters.
My dearest Loki,
It has been so long since we last have seen each other. My scouts told me this is because you have found a new object of interest. I came myself to see if this was true. A human of all possible choices? I have to say I was a little shocked but in honour of our long friendship I decided to not judge beforehand. So, I have invited this human into my home to get to know her better. Maybe I can find the reason of your fascination. If you want, you can join us, and we celebrate our own reunion. The crow will lead you back to me.
