Loving Lies (Book 2)

Chapter 27

Loki was gone. Gone as in he went back to the palace. He left without being sent off and had a messenger come and tell us after a couple days. I was hurt he left but I deserved it. I did this to myself and I can live with it.

"(Y/n) focus, you dance like a mule," Aros says as he snaps at me, breaking my train of thought. I frown and kick him.

"And kick like a mule too," he winces as he grabs his knee. We get back into position and start slowly dancing.

Aros looked very uneasy about something. He was hiding something....I just knew it.

"What's wrong?" I ask in a whisper. His eyes trail behind me and his face pales. I turn to see my dad watching. He gives me a smile and I return a small one back.

"Remember (y/n) always look your partner in the eyes and no matter what, just.keep.dancing," he tells me. There was a hidden message. It was as obvious as Thor's muscles.

"Got it, now let's continue," I reply. He nods and we move gracefully. My vision of him fades as there was a new scene playing.

Aesir and Raynor were in the library, conversing.

Aesir- my plan worked Raynor!

Raynor- Aesir they love each other....why are you ruining it?

Aesir- Because I will not have my daughter with a man that cannot be trusted!

Raynor- I know how stubborn you can be, but please let your daughter love who she wants even if you don't approve of it. She can't love just anyone.

Aesir-I'm protecting my daughter Raynor! Now I need to know how to get them further apart as a guarantee....

Raynor- Aesir....

Aesir- ah! Is Sigyn still in Asgard?

Raynor- Yes, why?

Aesir- She can go down to Midgard. I'll pay her a great sum to get along well with him, be close to him. When (y/n) sees the prince and his ex-wife together it'll make sure she won't get back with him.

Raynor- Aesir you are a really good friend of mine, please I advise you not to

Aesir- it is fine do not fret. Now you go eat my friend and I'll join you

Raynor- If that is what you wish......

Raynor leaves and Aesir turns.

Aesir- you cannot keep hiding and eavesdropping on us like that Aros.

Aros comes out from the shadows, he was clearly angry.

Aros- I'm sorry but I agree with my father and as her friend I am going to tell her.

Aesir- friend? She said she hated you did she not?

Aros- She....she didn't mean it. Even if she does I am still telling her of your evil deed.

Aesir- I know I'm not very threatening but I would hate to ruin the small romance you have started kindling with one of your servants.

Aros was taken aback. He liked a servant girl? That was cute yeah, but not expected from Aros. I still approved of this romance.

Aros- I have no idea what you mean.

Aesir- her care for you when you miss your dear friend is evolving into something and you are letting it and letting your care for her grow as well Aros... so how about you keep shut and I'll keep the girl alive...
