Loki's Daughter Book 3

Family Reunion

The next day I spot Valarie following a stranger to behind the stands for the second time. I follow her only to see the stranger change into...my brother.

'Excuse me what!' I yell.

'Oh, hey Raven, I don't think I told you, but this is your brother. Yay!' Val says. She looks so guilty.

'What!' Both my father and Thor say as they come around the corner.

'Oh, my gods. Archer,' Loki gasps his jaw-dropping. I walk away. 

Her footsteps pound in the grass. 'Raven! I am so sorry,' she calls out from behind me.

'You hid him from me, from his father?'

'Yeah because it was the right thing to do.'

'Was it, was it really?' I keep my back to her.

'Yes, it was. Please come back, and I will explain it.'

I turn around and storm pass her back to where my brother stands.

'Look long story short, I accidentally knocked him out then kidnapped him. Everyone was too busy to find out about him, so I kept him hidden.'

She falls silent, and we all stand around awkwardly in a group. Archer and I stare at each other. I watch as tears start to well up in his eyes.

Archer opens his mouth to speak when Val's phone goes off, sending us back to silence.

'Yes, um I am a bit busy,' we all hear Val say.

After a minute she hangs up, lights up in flames and flies off. 

Thor looks at us and nods.  'I'm going to keep running the competition,' he flies off.

I glare at my father, ignoring Archer as he continues to stare at me.

'You're that drunk girl that was stumbling out with the other drunk, that night.'

'Wow. You're quite specific there....what was your name?'

'Raven!' Loki mutters. 

'What?'

'Right. That's it,' Loki appears suddenly in front of me and grabs hold of my arm. 'Archer, come over here,' Loki orders. 

I glare into Loki's eyes as he teleports us to his study. He lets go of my arm and paces in front of the fireplace. I try to open a portal or even teleport out, but I only end up sinking into the couch, feeling nausea. 

'Stop trying to escape. We need to talk about this.'

'Can someone fill me in on what's happening. Why is my sister always trying to escape? Why are you always so rough with her? What is going on?'

Loki looks from me to Archer. 'Raven, could you quickly catch him up please?'

I turn from him to Archer. 'Come here to douche.'

'That's not nice.'

'Look who our father is. Being nice is not in our bloodlines.'

'Hey!' Loki playfully snaps.

Archer towers over where I am sitting. I grab his wrist and quickly show him, I've been through. 

My hand relaxes on his wrist t as I fall back into the couch.

'What's going?'

'She doesn't look well.'

'She's done it before.'

I groan and drop Archer's wrist as my eyes close. My mind races as I try to work out why this is happening to me.  'Odin,' I whisper as I lose feeling in my body. He's killing me.
