Thor and Loki glared at each other, neither one of them moving, or speaking. At some point, I got bored.

"You guys are gods. Stop acting like dramatic teenagers." I scolded. "Put the weapons down." I told them both. They both glanced at me like I was stupid. "Fine." I said and teleported their weapons from their hands. I definitely couldn't hold Mjolnir, but, surprisingly, I could teleport it. It landed squarely at my feet. "There, now use your words, or I'm kicking both of your asses."

Loki turned to glare at me.

"As amusing as that sounds, I've got more pressing matters to look after." He told me and summoned another dagger to his hand.

"Loki..." I said warningly.

"Sammee..." he said in the same tone of voice.

"Give me the blade, my prince." I told him softly and wrapped an arm around his waist from behind. My other hand slowly moved down his arm, to the dagger. When my hand slipped into his and wrapped around the blades hilt, his body stiffened. "Please, my prince?" I whispered. Loki let out an annoyed breath, but let go of the dagger. Thor stayed quiet and watched the whole interaction. He looked genuinely confused.

"He truly hasn't harmed you?" Thor asked me again, this time softer and more genuine. I looked over to Thor and shook my head. I could just barely see him from where I was behind Loki.

"No, Thor, he hasn't. He's the reason I'm alive." I told him. He looked down at the floor and seemed to think for a second.

"Fine." He said and looked back up to his brother. "I will hear you out, but I do not want your lies, brother." I felt Loki relax for a second before Thor stepped forward. Loki immediately took a step back, pushing me with him.

"Loki." I said softly to get his attention. "Thor won't hurt me."

Loki glanced at me before turning to watch Thor again, making sure he didn't move closer.

"She is correct, brother. I will not lay a finger on her." Thor added.

Loki's eyes narrowed at Thor as he looked him up and down. Loki's hand found mine as he guided me to stand in front of him. His hand slipped down to my waist and brought me closer while his other hand held the side of my face. He glared at Thor before leaning down and kissing me. It took my brain a second to catch on to what he was doing. He was making sure Thor knew I was his. I mentally rolled my eyes at him.

When his tongue ran across my bottom lip, I gave a soft moan and his hand tightened on my waist. He pulled back from me a second later and his other hand went to my waist while he continued to glare at Thor.

"You know," I started, "I don't think he understands, yet. Maybe you should do it again."

Loki looked down at me before relaxing and smiling.

"I think you're right, Kitten." He teased before kissing me again. This kiss was soft and sweet. My heart fluttered at how carefully he guided my lips. When the kiss broke, I kept my eyes closed for a moment and sighed.

"So, brother, you really are courting her?" Thor asked. I opened my eyes and looked behind me at him.

"N-no, we're just- uh... I'm not actually sure. It's a strange dynamic we have going on." I told him sheepishly as a blush came to my cheeks. Thor looked at me, confused.

"But you are wearing his amulet." He commented.

"Thor-" Loki started to say before I pushed away from him to face Thor completely.

"What does the necklace have to do with anything?" I asked.

"Thor, this isn't the time to-"

"Quiet, Mischief. I'm talking to Sparky." I interrupted Loki without looking at him. "Now, what does the necklace have to do with this?" I asked again and crossed my arms over my chest.

"The amulet shows who you are courting and that you are courting a prince of Asgard. You wear it to show claim on each other." Thor explained. My eyes widened as I turned back to Loki.

"You collared me?" I yelled at him. "So, let me get this straight, you put yourself at risk, on purpose, to what? Keep Thor away from me?" I asked. Loki looked down at me in confusion and slight amusement.

"You're upset because I put myself at risk? Not because of the meaning of the necklace?" He asked. I frowned at him.

"I mean, I'm a bit upset that I had to find out from Thor that we're apparently courting." I told him. Loki's smile grew a bit. "What the hell were you thinking?" I asked. Loki finally dropped his smile and glared at Thor again.

"I didn't like him touching what's mine." He hissed. I pinched the bridge of my nose in annoyance.

"Oi vey, alright. Whatever. We will talk about this later." I told him and turned back to Thor. "You. You can't just barge into my room whenever you feel like it. I don't give a fuck how upset you are." Thor looked like a child being scolded by his mother.

"My apologies, Lady Sammee. It will not happen again." He told me sincerely.

"Stop with the 'lady' crap. I am no such thing." I said to him. "Now, both of you, sit." I told the brothers and pointed to the small seating area. Thor bowed his head slightly and went to go sit in a chair to the left of the couch.

"Darling," Loki whispered into my ear, "I do not appreciate being ordered."

"Good," I told him and smirked, "it'll give you a reason to punish me for later." I backed away to see him smile before I turned and walked to the couch. "Ok," I said when I got comfortable on the couch, Loki taking a seat next to me, "go ahead, Thor. Ask."

Thor hesitated a moment before asking his question.

"Where have you been all this time?" He asked Loki.

"Around." Loki responded. I sent him a glare. He rolled his eyes and tsked at me. "Fine, I've been in the tower. I had to stay close, so I could heal Sammee." Loki sighed. I smiled warmly at him.

"Thank you, my prince." I told him.

"So, you truly are the reason she is alive?" Thor asked. Loki looked to his brother and gave a single nod. "What else have you been doing?" Thor asked skeptically.

"A lot of reading and resting to replenish my seidr during the day. Healing Sammee at night. It was quite the repetitive cycle." He told Thor.

"You don't expect me to believe that." Thor scoffed.

"Yes, because I could only be plotting for my next world takeover." Loki sarcastically told Thor. "Believe what you want, but that is the truth."

I reached over and grabbed Loki's hand to calm him down. I would rather not have the gods destroy my bedroom. Loki looked down at our hands before looking at me. I saw him consciously take a deep breath and relax some.

"Thor," I said and turned to him, "New York was not Loki's doing."

Thor looked at me with a confused expression.

"You have mentioned things like this before. What does that mean? If it wasn't Loki, then who? Who is to blame?" Thor asked. Loki stiffened beside me and I squeezed his hand to reassure him.

"I can't tell you, sorry. All I can tell you is that it wasn't Loki's fault... well not the important part at least."

Loki huffed beside me and I turned to look at him.

"You did seek him out, so it's a little your fault."

Loki glared at me, but didn't drop my hand, so I knew he, somewhat, agreed.

"Are you going to tell the team?" I turned and asked Thor. Thor furrowed his brow.

"I can't keep that he is living here from them." He said.

"They know he's living here." I told him. "They know him as a cat, but Tony agreed in the elevator, so they technically know he's here." I smirked. Thor chuckled and looked to Loki.

"I think you are rubbing off on her, brother." Thor told him.

"I am not your brother." Loki snapped back. I sighed sadly and dropped his hand. He looked at me for a moment with a hurt expression before he shook it off and glared back at Thor. Thor frowned and nodded, the same sadness sown in his eyes.

"Fine, I will keep your secret, for now. Father needs time to calm anyway."

"Thank you, Thor." I told him and smiled.

"But, if I feel that you are planning something, I will not hesitate to bring you to father." Thor told Loki firmly.

"I am the god of Mischief, I am always planning something." Loki smirked. Thor narrowed his eyes at him before turning to me.

"You will tell me if he does anything to harm you." Thor more demanded than asked. I scoffed and rolled my eyes, but answered anyway.

"Sure."

😏

Once Thor left and I had walked him out, I turned to Loki.

"Ok, your turn. Talk." I said and crossed my arms over my chest.

"About what, Kitten?" He asked from where he was on the couch, knowing full well what I was talking about. I didn't answer, I just continued to stare at him. Loki smirked and disappeared from the couch, only to reappear behind me. "I can play this game all day." He purred in my ear and grabbed my waist.

"So can I." I said and teleported a few feet away from him. Loki sighed and dropped his hands. "Why didn't you tell me about the necklace?" I asked. Loki looked at me for a moment before answering.

"I didn't know if you would wear it had you known the true meaning." He responded.

"Why did you even give it to me?" I asked.

"Because, I thought It'd look good on you." Loki smirked. "And how right I was."

"Loki, seriously, you can't just give me extremely important things to taunt your brother." I told him and reached up to unclasp the necklace. When I finally got it unclasped, I held it out to him. That was when he dropped his smirk and narrowed his eyes at me. He walked forward and took the necklace from my hand.

"He is not my brother." He said and moved to stand behind me. "And, if you try to take this off again, I will make it so that you can't." He put the necklace back over my neck and clasped it.

"Loki-"

"I didn't give it to you to taunt Thor, though that was a bonus. He couldn't keep his hands off of you." He growled. I turned to look at him and he sighed. "As long as you are wearing it, I know where you are. I know if you are in danger, or hurt. If you ever need me, all you have to do is call for me."

I watched him for a moment, not knowing what to say. Eventually, I gave up on trying to come up with words and wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer to me. I stood on the tips of my toes and kissed him. The action must have surprised him, because he didn't react at first. After a second, he kissed me back and pulled me closer to him by my waist.

"Does that mean you will wear it willingly?" He asked when the kiss broke. I chuckled and nodded. "Good." He said before kissing me again. "Now what were you saying about needing to get out of this dress?" He asked mischievously and thumbed the strap over my shoulder.

"Mmh, I need to shower, too. How much time do you think we have before we're interrupted again?" I asked as he bent down to kiss from my shoulder to my neck.

"Based on past events? An hour, give, or take." He mumbled against my skin. "So,we better get started." He smirked and bent down to pick me up. I squeaked in surprise and wrapped my arms around his neck, my legs going around his waist.

He laughed and kissed me again while walking toward the bathroom. When through the bathroom door, he turned the light on and set me down on the counter. He waved his hand at the shower and it turned on without him even turning to it. His lips stayed connected to mine as his hands started to wander. They slipped under my dress and traced patterns up my thighs, up to my hips. He only broke the kiss when his hands reached my hips. He pulled me toward him roughly, making me arch into him and have to put an arm out behind me on the counter to catch myself.

I gasped loudly at the action. His lips attached to my neck as his hands continued trailing up my sides, gathering the fabric of the dress further up my body. I moaned against him as he grazed up my ribs. Loki pulled back just long enough to take the dress off. His lips were back on my skin a moment later. I pulled him as close as possible and buried my fingers in his hair. Loki groaned and came back to my lips again, his tongue swirling with mine perfectly.

Loki's large hands moved to cup my breasts through the thin fabric of the white lace bra I was wearing and I whined against him before reaching behind me to unclasp the bra. Loki smirked at me eagerness.

"Getting impatient, are we?"

I pulled back from him and raised my eyebrows.

"What was that?" I asked innocently as I let the lace fall off my shoulders and onto the floor. Loki's eyes raked over my form as he sucked in a breath. When his eyes found mine again, I felt them pierce through me. I blushed at the intensity of his gaze.

"Gods, nothing. Ignore whatever idiotic thing I've just said." He said quickly before his lips crashed to mine again, but this time with a new found hunger.

His kiss was rough and hard, making sure I knew how badly he wanted me, needed me, in this moment. Loki's hand went back to my breast and started to kneed and tease me. I arched into his hand and moaned against him. His lips left mine and trailed down my neck. He bit down just over my pulse point and my breath hitched as I shivered. Loki continued down, over my collarbone, and to my chest. He bit the top of my left breast and I whimpered before his tongue soothed the bite. I couldn't believe just how sensitive I was.

His mouth moved to cover one of my nipples while his hand pinched and teased the other. I moaned as pleasure and heat spread through my body. After he had me writhing, he continued to kiss over my chest and stomach. I leaned back on my hands as I watched him descend down my body. He kissed and nipped at my inner thighs while I whined and squirmed above him.

I bit my lip as I watched him move closer and closer to my core, just to skip over it and kiss down the other leg. He stood quickly and grabbed my chin to pull me to him, connecting our lips, again. I could help the little whimper of protest at his teasing.

"I can't wait to hear all of the pretty little noises you make while I taste you." He said against my lips as he played with the fabric of my underwear, pulling it slightly off my body before letting it go, so it snapped against my skin. He wrapped an arm around my waist and lifted me up to slide the lace off of my hips and down my legs. When he set me back down, I shivered at the cold marble counter against my bare skin. He pulled me to the edge of the counter and rubbed up and down my thighs, squeezing occasionally as he kissed me. He then broke the kiss and looked at me. At that point, I was shaking with how badly I needing him.

Loki smirked and slowly dropped to his knees, never breaking eye contact with me. I shivered at the feeling of his hot breath against me. He glanced between my legs and let out a soft groan.

"So ready for me." He said. He ran a finger between my folds, coating it in my slick and just playing with me for a second. I forgot how to breathe when he looked back up at me and brought his finger to his lips, sucking it clean while he moaned. He released his finger with a 'pop' and smirked up at me.

Then, without warning, he leaned forward and ran his tongue over my core. I yelped in surprise and my legs tried to close automatically? But he easily held them open as he devoured me, focusing tight circles around my clit. Within seconds, I was a moaning mess. I leaned back on my arm as my other hand went into his hair, tugging softly. The pleasure I felt go through me was ungodly. Waves of warmth settled low in my stomach and started to spread down my legs. At the pace he was going, I wasn't going to last much longer. My legs started shaking as I gasped for air.

"Loki." I whined and tugged at his hair.

"I know, kitten. I know." He whispered gently to me. "It's ok, cum for me."

His tongue moved in fast circles, it was all too overwhelming. My back arched and I shook as I was pushed over the edge. I moaned Loki's name over and over again, almost like a prayer, as he continued his sinful actions. He didn't stop until my body relaxed and I came down from my high. He kissed up my body and gently kissed my lips while he hugged me to him.

"You did so well." He cooed as he stroked my hair. My brain was still fuzzy, but I wrapped my arms around him tightly. "You made such beautiful noises for me."

My heart fluttered at the praise Loki gave me. I sighed and relaxed against him as he held me. After a moment, I pulled back to look at him.

"Who knew you were so into aftercare." I teased. He smiled warmly.

"That's the most important part, Kitten." He said while he leaned in to kiss me again.

😏

Steam from the shower filled the room, making the warm feeling in my chest even warmer. My head was against Loki's chest as his fingers ran through my hair, soothing me. After a minute, I took a deep breath and pulled back from him. He looked at me with a soft smile that made my heart flutter. I couldn't stop myself from leaning forward and kissing him. I sighed into the kiss and pulled back slightly.

"Your turn." I smiled and ran my hands down his chest and stomach. Before I could reach the hem of his pants, he grabbed my wrists to stop me. I looked up at him with a confused expression.

"Shower first." He smirked. His tone was demanding in a way that almost made me want to challenge it, but I pouted instead and looked at the shower. Loki chuckled and pulled me from the counter. "Smart choice, Kitten." He said in an amused tone.

"At least tell me you're joining me." I told him and gave him my best puppy dog eyes. He rolled his eyes, but kept the smile on his face as he pulled me against him by my waist.

"Of course, Kitten." He said, like it was obvious, before kissing me.

I laid my hands against his chest and stood on the tips of my toes to get closer to him. As the kiss grew deeper, the leather under my fingertips vanished and was replaced by cool skin. I gasped as Loki pulled me flush against his, now very naked, body. I could quickly feel his excitement pressing against my stomach. I moaned slightly and wrapped my arms around his neck. Loki, knowingly, smirked and reached down to squeeze my ass.

Without breaking the kiss, he moved me over to the shower and guided me under the water. I broke the kiss and took a deep breath, moaning at the feeling of my muscles relaxing under the hot water. Loki reached up and tilted my head back, so that the water ran over my hair. When he started to run his fingers through it, I absolutely melted against him. The only thing keeping me standing was his arm around my waist. I moaned again and heard Loki chuckle as he leaned down and placed a kiss on my neck.

"Turn around for me, Kitten." He told me. I lifted my head up and opened my eyes.

He truly was stunning to look at, especially now. His expression was soft, his eyes half lidded and piercing through me. His chest was smooth and pale, with the occasional scar. Water droplets littered over his skin, making him glisten. I bit my lip as my eyes raked over his body, but before I could look too far down, he stopped me.

"Kitten." He said warningly and tilted my head back up to look at his eyes. I huffed at him and rolled my eyes.
