loki looked at her. he walked to her and smiled ."Pet, you know I'd gladly oblige you any day of the week , but do we want to risk it ?" Julianna sighed."Do you think it would mess up the pairing ceremony because I know you're far from being a virgin?"
loki laughed. "Well, we both know that I can go ask mother if you'd like ." He said, walking to her .she thought for a moment and nodded " to appease my curiosity, please ." He nodded, kissed her, and left . What should I do now ? she thought pacing .
"Asher, are you asleep?" She said, leaving the bathroom. Asher came out, "Can you go to the jail ward and have Emily brought to me ?"Asher nodded and bowed and left .Julianna sat by the fire, watching it dance as she waited. When the knock sounded, she jumped .
"Come in." She said, not looking away from the fire .she heard shuffling feet and the metal of the shackles Emily had on ."Take the shackles off and wait outside ." She said the guards exchanged looks but did what they were told ."Please come sit Emily. "She said .
Emily sat in the chair across from her .Julianna looked at her. "Are you hungry?"She asked her .Emily nodded. Julianna looked at Asher, "Could you run to the kitchen and get some food and tea, please ?" Asher nodded .Emily spoke up, "Why are you being so nice ?"
Julianna laughed. "I haven't decided I have some questions for you,"She said. Emily looked confused ."First off, what was your plan coming here ? trying to separate me and loki?" Asher came in just then and set the tray between them . she poured tea for both of them .
"Well, that was the plan, yes ." Emily said as she looked at the food ." Please eat Asher join us ." Julianna said, picking up her cup . Asher pulled the desk chair over and sat, grabbing a cup of tea ."And you're absolutely sure this baby is Loki's?" Emily finished the bite in her mouth before answering.
"Yes," She said, Julianna sat lost in thought as Asher and Emily were eating. "Would you be willing to take a DNA test to prove it?"Julianna asked .Emily didn't answer at first but nodded."What would it change? I'd still be locked up," Emily said, anger in her voice .
fernir growled at the rise in Emily's voice, causing Emily and Asher to jump.julianna Pet him, and he relaxed ." If you agree, I will have a room made up till you have the baby, then we will go from there ."Julianna said she watched Emily's face go through about 50 emotions.
"What did I miss ?"A voice said, coming out of the shadows .Julianna smiled and looked up at loki as he walked to the side of her chair ."Hopefully, we are making a compromise. " She looked back at Emily. Emily sighed, "and what happens after I have the baby if it is Loki's?"
Julianna shrugged. "We will cross that bridge when we get there ." Emily looked up at loki, then back at julianna."Fine, I'll do it ." She said ."Oh good ,Asher inform the guards outside that they are to stand outside your guys' door till morning." Asher nodded and took Emily and left .
Julianna stood to go to the bathroom, but loki stopped her. "What was that all about pet ?" But as she looked at him, she sighed." I'm trying to be the bigger person ."She said, freeing herself and going to the bathroom .loki followed and sat on the side of the tub, watching her.
"What did frigga say ?" She asked, looking at him ."Well, she said it would be safe to wait since the wedding is only a week away ." Julianna sighed but nodded .she turned back to the mirror .loki walked up behind her and hugged her .she layed her head back on his chest .
"Pet, I love you, but I think you're taking the Emily situation a little too far ."He said at this, "she turned. "So you want me to lock her back up and not know ?" She said her eyes had gone ice blue again."calm down pet please ." She shook her head. loki started to back up.
"No, I want an answer. Do you not want to know if she's lying or not?" She asked, loki sighed."Yes, pet, I'd like to know, but I was just hoping my next baby would be with you ." He said ."Well, maybe next time you should try protection." She said, closing her eyes .
she breathed a big sigh of relief and calmed down when her eyes opened back up; they were their normal color ."You are one of the most infuriating men I have ever met. " She said, storming out of the bathroom . he followed at a distance.
"Pet, please ... Where are you going?" He asked as she walked out the door. she didn't answer and just kept walking . she soon realized he didn't follow her .she walked to her dad's office and sat in his chair .she felt a sense of sadness sitting here .she missed her dad so much .
she looked up, and fernir was sitting in the doorway. she sighed; he didn't even trust me to be alone in my own castle .she started organizing her dad's desk and reading papers .she found some about her prior arranged marriage. she started to read through them.
