she moved closer, and loki saw who it was . she screamed, and laying there in a pool of blood was his body . she looked up at Odin, who was holding a sword covered in blood. Just then, odin saw her and started towards her . she turned to run but slipped and fell.
she jerked awake, throwing loki out of her head . it took him a minute to regain himself, and he saw her curled up away from him crying. he pulled her to him and held her till she calmed down . " Bad dream again, pet ?"
she nodded but didn't speak . he kissed the top of her head .
he used his magic when she finally fell back asleep to fight away her dreams so she could sleep peacefully. he fell asleep, but in his subconscious, he stayed aware, so she didn't have another nightmare . When they woke, she just lay there looking at him."I say we stay in bed all day," She said .
he almost agreed, but "Pet, we can't were supposed to see Amy , oliver, and the twins off today remember." She smiled, remembering this, and started to get up .she dressed in a simple light green dress .Green was becoming her favorite color .she walked out, and loki smiled. "Pet, I'm starting to feel I've rubbed off on you."
she smiled at him and walked to him .she stopped in front of him. "I don't think that's a bad thing, do you?"He looked thoughtful for a second ."It depends on how you look at it, I suppose ." He said, smiling. she stuck her tongue out at him and laughed .
he held his hand out, and they left toward the front of the castle to meet Amy and Oliver . they saw them fidgeting, trying to pack all the stuff that was got for the twins ."Everything, ok?" Julianna asked amy, looked up, and smiled."Of course, your highness just trying to figure out how to get all this home ."
Julianna laughed." Please just Julianna, and that's why lokis here he will help.oh, and I've arranged for clothes and diaper deliveries every month ."Amy gasped," that's too much ."She said, tearing up Julianna hugged her." it's my pleasure to help safe travels. " She said .
loki walked up to her. " Will you be okay for a little while ?".he asked. she nodded."I have some business to attend to. I'll be fine ." She said, kissing him .she watched them leave and headed to her dad's office .As she sat, she remembered all the good memories of her childhood here .
she noticed the picture she drew on the wall at the age of six was still there faded but still there . And the little unicorn toy she gave her dad when she was 13 still sat on his desk .she sighed how she missed him. he taught her to ride horses at the age of 8 . she hadn't been to the barn in a while .
I wonder if loki could ride a horse, she thought .she smiled, picturing him on a horse . Just then, a knock sounded. "Come in,"She said . in walked her dad's maid with a pile of mail. The maid set the mail on the desk and left .she grabbed the first letter .
it was a letter from the council stating she had one year after being crowned to find a husband, or they would strip her of the crown.she sighed great nothing like pressuring me into something. she sighed ."Something wrong, pet ?"she jumped at the sound of lokis's voice, not hearing him come in.
she handed him the letter and watched he read it .she watched his face fall in frustration."Well, that's stupid... You're a strong leader; you don't need a husband unless you want one ."He said, looking at her .she smiled at him and said, "There's only one man I want, and I don't think he wants to be married ."
she looked down at the desk, breaking eye contact with him .she started to open the next letter but he grabbed her hands, stilling them."Juliana, I would gladly marry you. I would love for you to be my bride and have tons of little you running around ."
loki said, cupping her face. she looked at him with tears in her eyes."Don't cry, pet you finish up here, and I'll be back in a little while, ok?"She nodded he left . The hours seemed to drag by . but her stomach growled, and she realized she hadn't eaten all day.
she started to walk out when loki appeared ."Do you trust me, pet ?"He asked, holding out a blindfold .she looked at him and smiled. "Of course, I trust you just don't hurt me,"She said .Stepping forward towards him ,he stood behind her and tied the blindfold.
he took her hand and started walking .After what seemed like forever, they finally stopped.he took the blindfold off, and she gasped .they were back at the balcony she first took him to, but he had set up a beautiful dinner .In the middle, sat a beautiful candlelit table with purple calla lilies in the middle.
he pulled out her chair, and she sat .he poured her a glass of champagne before he sat in the other chair .A few minutes later, their dinner was brought out and served .it was her favorite shrimp scampi with garlic bread .
