While celebrating her birthday, Louise and her friend recklessly decide to give her the ultimate present: a meet-and-greet with the Avengers. In the middle of the night.
But one thing leads to another, and Louise is thrown into a strange world of magic, mysteries and most importantly: mischief.
The former Prince of Asgard is a disgrace to his father and his kingdom. He's banned to a prison cell, but the boring days shift when an unimportant Midgardian girl enters his life. Or, so he thinks.
~
"Magic is an odd concept.."
He mumbled as his knuckles brushed my cheek. I let him.
"I remember you telling me you knew everything about it."
I mocked, his eyes twinkling as his grin widened.
"Well."
His lips moved closer to mine.
"Let's just say you complicate many aspects of my life. But you bring something out inside me..."
I held my breath.
"It's a darkness I'm willing to surpass, if it means I get to learn more about you."

Your name is Nova Hemming and you've been a Stark Industries legal advisor since Tony Stark became Iron Man. You are in the heart of New York City when the Chitauri invade Earth. But then, in a split-second decision fueled by survival instincts, you reveal your secret identity. Twice. A SHIELD-agent tasked with assessing Tony Stark's eligibility for the Avengers initiative. But you never told SHIELD you had magic running through your veins. Fast forward a year, Nick Fury decides to release you from your SHIELD duties to become a full-time Avenger. Meanwhile, Loki-the god of mischief and the mastermind behind the Chitauri invasion-is cast out to Earth to serve his punishment among the humans he despises to earn back his position on Asgard. Despite his troubled past and crimes, you can't help but empathize with the god. Soon enough, he's chipping away at your defenses, stirring up feelings you never expected. When Loki agrees to help you uncover your mysterious heritage, you realize there's more to you than meets the eye. But how will this affect your place in the Avengers and your growing affection for Loki? ~~Note: Chapters containing any kind of sexual content/smut, will be marked with an asterisk (*)~~ The Frost Giant & The Wolf top rankings: #2 in Avengers (13/11/2024) #1 in Lokiodinson (13/06/2024) #1 in Lokilaufeyson (10/06/2024) #1 in Asgard 🎉(05/06/2024) #1 in Lokilove (26/04/2024) #1 in OCxLoki 🎉 (18/03/2023) #1 in Avengerfanfiction 🎉 (18/03/2023) #1 in Vanaheim 🎉(18/03/2023) ©©©Rights©©©: ~ All Marvel characters belong to Marvel and Disney, I do not own them!

Toxic
"I would never hurt you or be unkind to you." Loki persisted, suddenly in front of her. He gently cupped her face as his fingers stroked her jaw. "I would never." "Holding people hostage in their own home is unkind." She snapped. His grip tightened. "Making people fall in love you and refusing to love them back is unkind." She sucked in a sharp breath, trapped in his harsh hold. "You don't need freedom if I give you everything you need." He inspected her, eyes trailing all over her face, before he decided to let her go. "Kings and gods have bowed down to me.... what makes you think you can refuse for long?" *** | catching a case of Stockholm Syndrome | *** | reviews | "Loki was portrayed under different lights that could definitely strike up a healthy debate and I absolutely love that. You did such a fantastic job it gave me chills. This was spectacular." "I haven't actually seen writing like this before and if I had the money I would definitely adapt it and make it a film." - @just_a_muscial_weeb "OK BABES, so I laughed, I cried, I got mad, I got sad, I was glad, had hope and some trust issues through out the book. I may or may not have broken my phone screen because I threw it across the room at every plot twist. I loved this story and it definitely was different from what I'm used to which is a good thing <3." - @rose_jasmine_blossom "I just want to say that you are an amazing writer! I've been reading 'In the Dark' for so long and I've never stopped loving it, this is honestly one of the best books I've EVER read, fanfic or not! I hope you continue to write other books because all of yours are pure amazing!" - @BooksRule4ever0 "THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING! Here we have a masterpiece with good plot twists.

Puzzle of a Chosen Trickster
After Thanos snaps half of the universe out of existence, Tony is grieving but his brain still won't stop asking questions. Like why on Earth did Loki leave Thor a stone covered in runes that looks suspiciously like a puzzle? He soon finds out that inside that little puzzle, the God of Lies left behind the truth. Along with his plan and the fact that his death is anything but permanent. ------------------- Marvel owns the characters. I did not make the art on the cover but I did make the cover itself. I don't own any of the art or music that may be featured. I own the writing. No AI used (published pre AI explosion). Do NOT use this to train AI. Please do not copy or post to another site or app. Warning! Temporary character death (spoiler), and very canon divergent. Also, sorry for any mistakes with Infinity War and End Game, but I genuinely think I blocked the movies out of my memory because all I remember is my favorite characters dying. :( Some of the differences are on purpose though because I didn't like a lot about the movies. This is my fifth published story. (July 2 2020 (I think anyways, the date on the published mark keeps changing)) (Made before the Loki series) Mature for canon-typical violence and gore. Frostiron/Ironfrost (Tony+Loki) (mostly implied and at the end) Some notable hashtag achievements (thank you all so much for the support!): -#1 in marvel (Sep 15, 2021) -#1 in alternaterealities (Sep 15, 2021) -#1 in frostiron (May 22, 2022)(again on March 8, 2025)(again on October 15, 2025) -#1 in lokifriggason (June 23, 2022) -#1 in hela (July 2, 2022) -#1 in ironfrost (October 13, 2022) -#29 in loki (September 17, 2025) Hit 20k reads on June 12, 2022!

According to Plan (A Loki x Reader Fanfic)
You set out on a poorly planned mission to avenge a close friend and end up making an unlikely ally (Loki in disguise). The brief partnership ends up becoming more than a one-night-thing, despite everyone's best efforts, and soon you're enveloped in the world of Loki, prince of New-Asgard, and you have a newfound power growing within you - your own glorious purpose. Romance is never easy, especially when gods and monsters are in play, but you're on a journey to become more than just Loki's paramour... you're becoming his Lady. Story takes place in a wishful-thinking AU after Thor Ragnarok (Although I guess now every AU is kind of cannon, isn't it?). The Asgardians made it to Earth - Loki doesn't die. Natasha is still alive, Tony is still cocky and breathing, Vision is... around. Endgame and Infinity War are great, but let's keep the sad shit out of this one, shall we?Complete
Slave to the Gods
ABUSE, VIOLENCE, TORTURE, GORE, SA(R too), DV tbh Honestly, I don't recommend this book to people, but people like it and think I should keep it. So, if you get triggered by these warnings: DO NOT READ THIS BOOK! Your well-being is so much more important than reads. LokixFem!Reader It will contain one scene (I think) of CONSENSUAL smut for all you naughty little sausages. Proper punctuation and spelling. This takes place after Avengers and disregards any other MCU storyline. Okay, have fun. ------------------------ You lived on earth until you were captured by Odin and brought to Asgard. You've been his favorite slave until you were gifted to Loki. After the god learns how you were treated, he vows to treat you differently. It's a rollercoaster of emotions as Loki struggles between his father's approval and your well-being. ------------------------ Rankings: One in #yourname Two in #lokiofasgard Five in #lokifanfic Three in #odin One in #frigga ------------------------ Storyline is mine.

I Don't Hate You ~ Loki X Reader
"Am I your biggest secret, Y/n?" he asked, enraged. His eyes were now glowing green. I couldn't respond. I wanted to say no, but I knew deep down that he was. He knew my answer, too. Every lie and half-truth I'd told tonight was about him. I'd hidden away from my friends for weeks because of my secrets. "Are you embarrassed by me, Y/n?" I looked down at the floor. Was I embarrassed to be close to the world's greatest villain of our time? I didn't know. "Do you care for me at all?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Y/n lay dying on the side of the road in the desert. She had no clue how she got there or who she was. She was going to die. However, as she faded in and out of consciousness, a pair of green eyes appeared above her. The next thing she knew, she was in Avenger's Tower. Now she had to figure out her past, no matter how painful, and find a new future with or without the monster that saved her life. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Previous Rankings: March 25 #183 in Fanfic #5 in Loki Love Story #18 in Marvel Universe January 9 #12 in mcu #7 in Loki x Reader #6 in Loki Love Story #26 in Thor Odinson

Gardenias (L. Laufeyson)
{SET BEFORE THE EVENTS OF 'THOR'} - "Did you know," she said, sitting on the ground and turning to the prince, "that Midgard has an entire language dedicated to flowers? Each of them mean something else. It's a very sweet way they can express emotions to each other." Loki laughed quietly. "Midgard can truly be backwards at times, but they are amusing." He nodded to the flower she had just essentially brought back to life. "What does the gardenia symbolize in this language?" "Young love," she answered after a moment of hesitation. "Secret love." Loki felt something flutter in his chest. - Arranged marriages are something out of Shakespeare and ancient history. At least that is the thought of Loki Odinson, but his father clearly has other plans. In a political move aimed to unite Vanaheim and Asgard, Loki is betrothed to the youngest daughter of the royal family of the neighboring realm, Vanaheim. Loki, who doesn't even know if he believes in love at all, finds himself in a very odd position, especially because he's met his betrothed before. A marriage date is set, but both the bride and the groom are less than satisfied. Can love grow out of circumstance?

⊰WORSHIP ME⊱ Loki x Reader
I rip my hand away, fumbling for my bow. The arrow trembles between my fingers. One shot-one call-and the cell would drop him 30,000 feet. But I can't let go. Tears sting my eyes. My arms shake from the effort of holding the string back. "Do I know you, Loki Laufeyson?! Is there a reason I can't seem to kill you?!" He takes a step back, pain flashing through his features. "No," he says softly. "You don't know me. You just... remind me of someone I once knew." "Who?" I whisper. "She was my everything," he says, voice breaking. "But she was taken from me. Lost. I was told I'd find her again, but now..." His head drops. "Now I fear she's gone forever." My throat closes. "Can you tell me about her?" "There's nothing to tell," he murmurs. "Only that I swore to love and protect her-for eternity." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Asgard - a realm of eternal splendor, where golden towers kiss the sky and the Nine Realms thrive under the watchful gaze of the Allfather, Odin. Here, gods and immortals live among rivers of light and endless beauty, their faith sustaining the balance between worlds. Across every realm, belief takes many forms - science, spirit, myth - yet all trace back to one truth: life itself waits, dormant, in the deepest heart of the forest. A force older than creation, sleeping until destiny calls it to rise. But when the young God of Mischief stumbles upon that divine power, the awakening does not bring salvation. It brings chaos. What begins as a spark of curiosity turns into a storm of pain, sorrow, and love. Phase one needs some serious editing and expansion. However I want to finish a good chunk of my story before I do so. This story will not have very long lasting "happy" moments. It has angst tagged for a reason. Slow burn ish Lots of Angst enemies to lovers Phases will go through each movie A Lokixfemreader fanfic All characters and rights go to Marvel except for the main character and some side charactersComplete
