Ghost

Chapter 4

Nat's POV

-Nat! Nat wake up!-.

I opened my eyes and found Thor next to me: he was worried, I could see it clearly.

I sat on the bed and realized that I was all covered in blood again and that a dead body was next to me.
I looked at Thor, scared.

-Is this...? Did I do this?- I asked.
He nodded.
-He was supposed to bring you dinner, but we didn't expect that the creature already took place in your head- Thor explained.

I nodded sobbing.

-I... It never happened that the creature leaves the bodies in places where they can be found easily- I said.

I took a deep breathe and then continued: -Yesterday night it was more aggressive than usual... It took control easily-.

Thor was worried and I was too. Well, I was more frightened but yeah, worried too.

-I think you should stay here, in your room for a few days, until we find a way to destroy the creature- he said.
-Are you locking me here?- I asked.
-I know I know, but... It's for safety...-.
I sighed.

I understood his point of view, with me free to go his world would have been in danger.

-Ok fine, I'll stay here- I said and Thor smiled.

-Good, I hope it will be the shortest possible! There will be guards outside at night, just to be sure that you don't escape if the creature shows- he explained and I nodded.

Some days passed and the creature didn't show, but I was so bored, wvery day was worse.

I had a lot of things to do in my room, but I only wanted to go out.

Suddenly a bird entered my room and I got scared when the bird became a human: Loki.

-What do you want?- I say annoyed.

-You remember me I see- he said smiling -Well my brother sent me here to see if the creature showed or not since it is 7 pm and the sky is becoming dark-.

-Now you follow Thor's orders?- I said laughing -Well no, it didn't show yet-.
He nodded and sat on the sofa that was in my room.

-What are you doing?-.

-I have to stay here, just in case you turn into a killer- he said.
-I'm not staying in this room with you!- I yelled.

-Then go out and kill someone, I am sure that the creature would love it- he said.

I sighed: he was right, I couldn't do that.

I spent the evening eating dinner and reading and Loki looked at me all the time; I womdered what he was thinking about.

-Ok I am going to sleep, are you going to stay here?- I asked.

-Yes, all the night-.

I used to sleep without my bra and I removed it, but suddenly I remembered that Loki was looking at me.

-Oooh you are getting ready for me, aren't you?- he said approaching.

He looked like a cat ready to jump on his prey.

-No no I...- I said and suddenly he was very close to me.

-Shhh... You don't have to be ashamed- he said.

What is this feeling? I should be disgusted of him, not... attracted.

His lips touched mine for a few milliseconds and a shiver went across my body, my breathe becoming heavier.

-Loki...- I whispered.

-Yes?- he whispered, his face a few centimeters from mine.

-Get off my bed. Now- I said smiling.
He smiled too, walking towards the sofa.

-You will look for me one day, darling- he said.

In your dreams, I thought before falling asleep.
