Loki got in the shower and let the hot water flow over him. It wasn't helping his issues, so he reached down and stroked himself till he came. He felt a little better, but he wished things were different. How he wished he was deep inside Julianna, but the time would come.
He finished getting clean and got out. He noticed she drifted off in the bath. He smiled. 'She was so perfect, what happens if Odin won't let her call off the marriage? Can he stand to lose another woman he loved?' He pushed the thought aside and gently woke her.
"Let's get you to bed pet," he said, helping her out of the tub into a towel. He led her to the closet she went in and got a nightgown on. He slipped into the sweats he brought with him. He usually slept naked but didn't think it appropriate at the present time .
Fenrir was lying on the bed watching him. He stopped and pet him before sitting on the bed. Julianna came out and sat next to him. She reached down and pet Fenrir then climbed under the covers, waiting for Loki to lay with her. As he did, she lay her head on his chest and drifted to sleep.
Julianna tossed and turned all night; her dreams were very unsettling. She sat straight up in bed, drenched in a cold sweat. Glancing around to find Loki still asleep next to her. She slipped out of bed and made it to the door, noticing Fenrir next to her. She quietly opened it as not to wake Loki.
Her and Fenrir slipped through and went for a walk around the castle. She was lost in thought as they walked, and they ended up in the hospital wing. She finally realized where they were and noticed that at the end, there was a crib with a pair of twins but no parents in sight.
She saw the nurse and walked to her. Upon noticing her, the nurse bowed, "Queen Julianna, To what do we owe the honor of your presence?" The nurse asked politely Julianna looked in the crib before answering. "I couldn't sleep. Where are the parents of these babies?" She asked, looking at the nurse.
"Well, the mother died giving birth to them, and no one knew the father... We are waiting for the grandmother to come get them." The nurse said, fixing a machine that started beeping. "May I hold them?" Julianna asked, still looking at the babies. "Of course you are queen and can do what you like." The nurse said. She pulled a rocking chair over.
Julianna sat in the chair, and the nurse handed her one baby, then the other. As she sat there, she realized she longed to be a mom and have babies of her own. Question is would Loki want to have kids with her? Just then, the boy baby started to cry. She rocked them and started singing. He calmed and went back to sleep.
Loki walked in and stopped in his tracks. He saw Julianna at the far side of the room in a rocking chair, singing to two little babies. His heart melted; she would make a wonderful mother. He stood there watching, not wanting to intrupt. But as if she sensed him, she looked up and smiled at him. He walked to her.
"Pet, I think motherhood would suit you." He said in her ear." As the nurse walked over with bottles. "Here, you wanna help feed them?" Julianna asked him. He nodded and took the girl baby. The nurse gave them the bottles. The baby girl wouldn't take it at first. But with some gentle coaxing, Loki got her to take it.
Julianna watched Loki while he fed the baby. He was such a natural. He'd be a great father. The baby she held finished his bottle. She put him on her shoulder, and he burped. Loki did the same with the girl, and she burped. They gently lay them back in the crib, thanked the nurse, and left.
As they walked, Loki took her hand. "What were you dreaming about, pet?" He asked as they walked .she stayed silent for a few moments before answering. " I was dreaming we were back in asgard, and I told odin I didn't want to marry Thor that I wanted to be with you."
she said she was still not looking at him . he stopped and stepped in front of her .he saw tears in her eyes. "And?"He said, knowing she wasn't telling him everything . she looked at him, and his heart ached, "and he went crazy ordered the guards to kill you. I watched you be murdered in my dream...and my heart felt like it shattered. I don't want to lose you."
"Please look at me, pet ." loki said, cupping her chin. she lifted her head. "I told you I will be here till the day you send me away . And odin wouldn't dare kill me . he may banish me from asgard, but he won't kill me, I promise." loki said . she walked closer , lay her head on his shoulder, and sighed.
"For both, our sakes, I hope you're right. I don't think I can live without you ." She said quietly he nodded,"and I can't live without you, but come we have a big day tomorrow. Let's try to get some rest ." they walked back to the room and went to bed .
