[LOKI/VALKYRIE] Sakaar, Asgard, Earth. The two Asgardian Princes find themselves fighting side by side against dark powers, restoring their brotherly relationship and peace. On Sakaar they meet a Valkyrie, an ancient female warrior who will side them in the battle. Her relationship with the God of Mischief becomes very particular, a continuous love and hate, curious attraction and sudden repulsion. United by a dark, painful past, they will learn to deal with their emotions and to let some heat spread into their iced souls. ~~~~~ «Being the son of a Frost Giant doesn't mean you are a monster!» «Maybe I wasn't talking about that» he retorts while his eyes peer down into mine, his figure towering over me. A shiver runs down my spine. He does this effect to me, I can't avoid it. «I wish I knew more about it all» I swallow. «Why do you want to know about me?» he asks, more calmly. «For the same reason you wanted to know about me.» ~~~~~ All the characters and settings of the story are a Marvel's property - this is a fanfiction written by fans for fans.

I was born in Baltimore, Maryland to a single struggling mother of four. Last year, in the midst of a mental breakdown, I began writing. I wrote in hopes of understanding my depression. I wrote to calm my ever present anxiety. I wrote to acknowledge the part of me that was hidden and my obligation to expose her. Many of my stories are about my struggles to forgive my neglectful and abusive parents who used me and disregarded my youth. I also address my inability to stop the ongoing torture and pressure I put on myself. I wrote to understand the cycle that so many deal with - the cycle of stolen innocence. The cycle where girls are forced to become women before they can fully understand and enjoy being a girl; and all the instances from these experiences. These stories are my true thoughts at the time of their occurrence, my honest feelings towards them now, and my hopes that one day I will forgive myself for continuing the pattern.

**The No 1 fantasy romance by award-winning novelist and scriptwriter Gytha Lodge, author of The Fragile Tower series** What if you had a power you couldn't control? What if you could make everyone you cared about fall in love with their perfect match, and live happily ever after? And what if the only person it wouldn't work on was you? Helena Morgan is a smart, sarcastic math student in her final year of MIT. She refuses to date, or to even get close to anyone male, and her friendships with her girlfriends have a bad habit of ending after a few months. But Helena isn't the hard person she appears to be. She has a secret; one that has made toughness necessary for her own survival. Helena creates fairytale happy endings, for everyone except herself. Every friend she's ever had has ditched her for their all-consuming new love interest, and the few times she's had boyfriends, they've suddenly found themselves head over heels for someone else... But the devastatingly hot new boy Joseph Moritz doesn't want to take no for an answer. The more Helena pushes him away, the more determined he is that they're meant to be together. She finds herself drawn into his world, one where his younger brother needs his protection from the increasingly bad people he's got involved with, and one where risks are a part of everyday life. She knows she shouldn't let herself get close to him, but something in Helena is aching to stop fighting. Is there a chance she might get to hang on to Joe, or will she lose him? And is it even worth the risk? The Cupid Touch is the gripping new story from Gytha Lodge, award-winning author of The Fragile Tower series. Available exclusively on Wattpad.

"I didn't ask to be in the middle of your ego-battle," I grumble. Blake pins me to my locker, hands resting on either side of my head. "Well, you got it in anyway, Darling," he whispers. His face is inches away from mine and damn me for licking my lips. I am NOT falling for these guys. And then, at the corner of my eye I spot Owen and his gang approaching. Well, that's just great. *** The West and East gang of Tygerwell have been at each other's throats since the dawn of time. And the two leaders of these gangs want to end the fight, once and for all. But fighting with fists is easy. Fighting with wit and charm, is a whole other ball game. Blake. West-side gang leader. Leather jacket and killer glare. Don't talk back. Owen. East-side gang leader. Fancy coat and toxic stare. Don't resist. And in comes Amber. Hair of gold and oceans in her eyes. Has too much sass for her own good and always, ALWAYS, manages to get into the middle of trouble. But these boys have no idea who they're really dealing with. And when Amber descovers she knows a little too much when it comes to guns and fighting, she has to question everything she thought she knew about herself. Three can play this game. *** "Let's settle this. You got rejected, I got rejected. It's only fair that the fate of the gangs be on who gets the girl first." "That sounds rather good, Rhodes. I'll take that bet on the golden girl." *** COMPLETED FICTION AWARDS: Best new story and best new account Highest ranking in Teen Fiction: #1 on 25/06/2018

Also available on Webnovel Highest Ranking #324 in humor. PLEASE NOTE: In the process of editing so please don't point out every mistake you see! As well as that, as I'm editing chapter by chapter some things may not seem right, just leave it and come back later :) Winnerof Wattpad Wonder Contest. Runner up in the Worship Writers Competition DISCLAIMER: This story is non canon to the MCU there are some little Easter eggs and references to it, but it is officially non canon. It was originally going to be written as a fanfiction but that has changed. My reasoning behind this is the events in Infinity War and the fact that Loki keeps dying and coming back to life. *** He turned up out of nowhere, a strange man, a confused man, calling himself Loki. My name is Ingrid and until a few weeks ago I was completely your normal ordinary 17 year old university student. Then I decided to 'adopt' this poor helpless boy Loki. We've grown close, very close but something is stirring, something big. Incidents are happening, not just to me but those I care about. Everything's changing, but how are you supposed to explain that your in love with a norse god who is supposedly evil, even though I don't know if I love him?
