As Ptolemy thought, we are all closer to Hell than we are to Heaven. If you push any man hard enough they can fall right back into the abyss from which they came.
 ~ Loki, The God of Mischief in The Art of Manipulation

They were perfect for each other. She was light, he was darkness. She was pure, he was plagued. He was a ghost, and she was an angel. They had balanced each other like no other couple could. They calmed each other, soothed each other. They came together like Heaven and Hell, joined at the horizon by their love for music. He gave her his music and she gave him her voice. Their love was perfection in every sense of the word.

They were also ignorant. Or at least...he...was ignorant. Ignorant to the fact that there was another being who loved him, too.

I had loved him, that masked man. I had known him when all he was was a voice to her, her angel of music. I was his companion and he was my dream. A dream that would never be mine. A dream that I would long for for centuries.

And now that I had a second chance, a second chance at the love I most desperately desired, I had to make a choice. 

Do I let things be, allow the Phantom's story to unravel the way it had the first time? Do I endure watching the man I love marry the woman who was so perfect for him again? That woman who was the dazzling soprano Christine Daaé? 

Or do I take him as my own?

A Broken Heart [A Loki Fanfiction] [COMPLETED] by loki_sherlock_loves
9 parts Complete
He lived a life of lies, injustice, and neglect. He made gruesome mistakes. He was used, tortured, manipulated. But, sure, the God of Mischief can stay strong no matter what. Or can he? Even the toughest cry. And when the toughest have gone through hell, they might take the path of self-destruction. Or at least that's the path that Loki took in the desperate need for something to change the void inside him--to make him feel alive again. ... "The problem is life itself. We live only to die, we exist to turn to dust, we can see only to close our eyes one day and never open them again. What's the meaning of all this?" "Love?" "I don't feel anyone's love." ... COMPLETED STORY ... Note: Of course I don't own Loki, Thor or any MARVEL character. I only own the plot and some characters created to support the storyline.
Lore: When a Trickster Meets His Match by ExcentricWriterGirl
24 parts Ongoing Mature
"Loki." Her hands were timid. They were much more shy than he had been, which should've made him wonder if he'd been too forward with his actions in the first place, and there was a tremble in each fingertip as she gently reached out and put her hands against his chest. He hoped that he hadn't given away his feelings, that his heart wasn't spilling out his thoughts through the morse-code splutter of each heartbeat as she put her palm against his heart. Her breath fluctuated from time to time, perhaps with a brush of his thumb across her mouth, or she became stunned by a thought or a feeling that floated through her. Sometimes their eyes were closed. Sometimes open. Regardless of what they could see, they stood in that embrace to feel the mingling of their breath and to hear the singing of their blood in their veins. "Darling," Loki spoke. The woman met his eyes. "May I kiss you?" Her gaze mellowed. It was all that he wanted to do. To say thank you. To say thank you for understanding. Thank you for trusting me. Thank you for being here. Thank you for not trying to stab me in the kidney, as many people would've. It seemed that she wouldn't respond with words. It was the way that her jaw tensed as her muscles stretched, putting her on tiptoes so that she was tall enough to reach his lips. It was a split-second that her arms came up, resting now on his shoulders. His eyes met hers as he leaned in to bridge the gap. It was the way that it all went crashing down. __________________________ Lore is a book of short stories about Marvel's Loki. For a character as multi-faceted as Loki, it can be difficult for him to find love. Here are the stories of people who are drawn to him (whether they like it or not) and seem to fall in love with the maddeningly different aspects of Loki's character: a trickster prince, a tortured villain searching for redemption, a frost giant, a god of mischief and stories, a TVA agent, a would-be king and a sorcerer.

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. Cover is artwork (that isn't mine) that I've modified for my book. All characters (except for Y/N and any other character I make up) belong to Marvel.

"I have realized... it is better to be alone, Meg. The people I love won't get hurt." He whispered to me and then I saw him. The man I know and love; the man torn between wanting to love and scared of it; the man wanting to feel but runs away from everything that makes him feel because he is afraid of losing it. "I learned with Christine that I cannot love, Meg. I cannot love anyone...I only hurt them. And no one can love me. Who could?" "I could." I couldn't believe I just said it. He froze and I just kept talking, afraid the words would stop coming out of my mouth. "That's where you're wrong, Erik. You've always believed that no one could ever love you, all of you, even with your deformity. And yet, I have loved you since I was seventeen years old. You hid yourself behind the "Phantom of the Opera" but I never saw a Phantom. I saw a man desperate to be loved, to be loved not only for his music but for himself. I thought Christine could be the one to finally show you that love since I was so afraid to do so. But not afraid of you but what I know you would say. Christine chose wrong, Erik. I would've chosen you in a heartbeat... I do choose you."
