Bewitching Mischief

Two weeks later and both Loki and Thor were bruised and sore. The girl has easily adapted and was now a force to be reckoned with. That afternoon in the meadow she had tried several spells and after a little time had mastered them again. In the days that followed she spent the morning reading and the afternoon was spent training with Thor, the Warriors Three, and Loki himself. It turned out Alexis was not only exceptionally gifted, she learned fast and within the week she bested all of them in combat.

To say Loki underestimated her was putting it mildly. He began by laughing at her and not taking her seriously at all, to questioning his life choices as again he was frozen on the spot. She got under his skin. She became more confident and was now teasing him relentlessly, just as before. Gone was the shy and awkward girl she had become after he discovered her secret. He admired her strength and her magic. It came naturally to her and now that she once again had her wand, she became better at wandless magic too. It seemed as of her magic had settled down.

It was around four in the afternoon that the training ended. Alexis stood in the middle of the arena. Around her on the ground was Thor, without his hammer, Loki, Sif and several soldiers. They all moaned and huffed. Alexis was enjoying herself immensely. She grinned and walked over to Loki. ‘Need help?’ she asked him with a naughty smile. ‘Gloating doesn’t become you,’ came the sullen reply. At this Alexis laughed out loud. She offered him her hand and hauled him up. They locked eyes and it was like her skin was on fire. A little electrical spark was felt by both of them and Loki quickly let go. Both seemed confused and Alexis walked away.

‘What…just happened?’

Loki looked at Thor. ‘I’m not sure brother.’ Thor smiled easily. He enjoyed having his brother back and not the angry man he had become. ‘She is very pretty.’ At this statement, Loki glared at him. ‘What do you mean by that?’ Thor lifted his hands. ‘Only to say it would be understandable if you wanted to…’

‘Oh no, we are not doing this.’ Loki walked away before Thor could finish his sentence. He didn’t see his mother and father, who were watching. Frigga smiled, for she knew the future. Her son would help the witch and the witch would help her son. It was perfect. Odin smiled for his own reasons. It was true that he was hard on Loki. But that didn’t mean he didn’t care for him. He wanted him to be happy. Odin wanted to make amends, but Loki still refused to talk to him. It would take time.

Back in her room, Alexis took a bath. She was sweaty and also showed some bruises, but it wasn’t anything she couldn’t handle and she have had worse before. When she was done, she wrapped a towel around her. She was about to search for some clothes when someone knocked on her door. ‘It’s open,’ she yelled. Not looking up and wrongfully assuming it was Jane who had stepped in, she walked out of the bathroom dressed only in a towel and let out a little yelp of surprise when she saw Loki standing in the room.

‘Uhm…hi…what..uh..what is it?’ She stammered. ‘Eloquent as ever, I see.’ She blushed. Damn him. with his perfect face and hair and body and everything. Stupid God.

‘Well, I am kinda naked here, so what is it?’ It came out a bit harsher than she intended and he frowned at her. ‘I was going to ask you to sit next to me at dinner.’

‘Oh.’ Great, snap at him when he is basically asking you out.

‘I would like that,’ she smiled ruefully. ‘I’m sorry, it didn’t mean to snap at you. It was only because I actually want to jump you and make small blue babies with you, but hey…

She blushed at her own thoughts, causing Loki to smirk.

‘Anything you want to add my dear?’ He walked over to her and she wanted to back away but stood her ground. ‘Nope.’

He stopped right in front of her, and she had to look up to look at him. He was a head taller than herself. He grinned a Cheshire grin. ‘Are you sure?’

‘Jep, preeetty sure.’

‘In that case, I'll leave you alone so you can dress yourself.’ Before he turned and walked away, however, he ran his hand over her bare arm and the energy crackled again between the two of them. She gasped and in the confusion that followed she forgot about her towel. She lifted her arm to rub her other arm when said towel decided that it would rather be on the floor.

It dropped, causing Loki’s mind to short-circuit and for Alexis to scream bloody murder. She turned around as quickly as she could and ran into the bathroom. After his brain worked again, Loki burst out laughing. ‘See you later my dear,’ he called to her.

`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/

When he got to his own room, Loki closed the door and leaned against it. It hadn't been his intention to see her naked. But now he couldn't forget her. She'd squeezed her way into his mind and heart and all he'd been thinking about lately was the little witch. He admitted, at first he found her annoying. She became more interesting when it turned out that she was a witch. She became even more interesting when it turned out that she needed his help. And then she could best him. He was almost unstoppable in terms of magic. Frigga had taught him everything he knew, and he knew that people on Asgard looked down on his abilities. After all, it wasn’t manly.

He was out of tune in Asgard with his looks and how he fought. He always did what was best for him, but for the first time, he wanted to do what was right for her. And Loki wasn't blind, she was beautiful. Those bright green eyes, the gorgeous black hair, the pale skin. In that respect, they resembled each other. He knew that when they returned to Midgard, everything would be different. Then they were no longer alone and he had competition from the American Hero and the Winter Soldier. But did he want more? There was attraction, without a doubt. Her magic reacted to his, and lately, he wanted nothing more than to feel her naked beneath him. Last night he had let himself come with the thought of her.

He shook his head and decided to read a book. Shifting thoughts until it was time to pick her up for dinner.

Back in the bathroom, Alexis gave a shaky sigh. What the fuck? What had happened? Loki had seen her naked...as if it wasn't bad enough that she thought about him almost every minute of the day. She'd liked him ever since she'd seen the Stuttgart footage. All that leather, his magic, and what that felt like for her. She knew Loki was dangerous. That she shouldn't challenge him, but when he came to live in the tower and join the Avengers, she had come to him like a moth to the sun. At first, she wanted to keep her distance. It was bad enough that one maniac was chasing her, intent to murder her for something she didn’t do, why run the risk of him wanting to hurt her too? But her brain hadn't listened and before she knew it she had fallen hopelessly in love with the cranky God.

And then everything had gone to shit. He had seen Dobby, she had to tell him everything, and finally, she had flung him across the room. She had been genuinely scared when he grabbed her and pushed her against the wall. And yet there was an insidious little voice that hadn't mind at all. And now he had basically asked her out as his lady at the table. Asgard was hopelessly old-fashioned. She giggled. She decided to pay extra attention to her clothes and then also wear some green accents because green was his color. She grinned when a thought came to her. Actually, Thor really was a Gryffindor and Loki belonged to Slytherin. Who knew?

`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/`/

Loki knocked on the door. When Alexis opened it, he blinked for a moment. She looked beautiful, in a long black dress, with a green glow. Her black hair had green flowers and she wore subtle make-up. She was absolutely beautiful and he felt his groin stir. Little vixen. She smiled coyly at him and he offered her his arm.

Together they walked to the great hall where the food was served every evening. As they entered, conversations fell silent for a moment and everyone looked at them. Alexis felt a moment of discomfort, but she was no longer the 14-year-old who had to compete in the Tournament. She was a grown woman, walking next to the most beautiful man in the universe. She straightened her back and held her head up. Let them look!

This was much to the delight of both Loki and Frigga. The evening was enjoyable and the food was delicious. After the last course, Alexis was chatting animatedly with Frigga, and Loki was engaged in a discussion with Jane, which went without any problems or insults.

Loki looked sideways at the woman sitting next to him. Norns, she was so beautiful. Now Loki had never been a man who denied himself anything. He wanted something, he took it. That didn't always work out, which explained the New York fiasco, but he decided he wanted to do his best for Alexis. He stood up and put his hand on her shoulder. Time to put his money where his mouth was. Alexis turned to him and looked at him expectantly.

‘Do you want to take a walk with me?’ She blushed deeply and nodded, still smiling. He led her outside and they walked to the gardens behind the palace. They were both silent. ‘I have never felt this way about a woman before,’ Loki started. They reached a bench and they sat down. He turned his body to her and held her hands in his. Alexis looked at him and smiled encouragingly. She knew Loki didn't often talk about his feelings. He looked at her. Green eyes looked into equally green eyes.

‘Maybe I don’t deserve you. But, with your permission, I would like to try to be the man you deserve. I want to fight beside you and for you. I want to make you happy and I want to protect you.’

Alexis had tears in her eyes. Her dream became reality. She blinked and squeezed Loki's hands. Before he could continue talking, she leaned over and kissed him on his lips. For a moment it seemed as if time had stopped and then Loki kissed her back. The kiss deepened as he pushed his tongue at her closed lips. She opened her mouth and it seemed as if the world no longer existed.

It wasn't her first kiss. But it was the best she'd ever had. Loki explored her mouth with his tongue and his hand cupped her face. If this was just kissing, damn…When they both had to breathe, they broke the kiss and looked at each other. She smiled. ‘Surely it's weird now to say I wanted to do this months ago?’ Loki smiled at her and shook her head. ‘I won't find anything you do weird. I found you and I won't let you go until you ask me to leave you.’

‘Never.’

Loki kissed her again and pulled her close to him. He then used his own magic to bring them back to her room. Alexis broke the kiss and looked around. She grinned and raised her eyebrows when she looked over at the bed. Loki stroked her arms and was silent. It was her choice, though it was clear what he wanted about the growing bulge in his pants. She nodded. She wanted this. ‘Only, uhm...I..uhm…’

‘Ssst, my love, you will be safe in my bed.’ She melted when she heard this. Loki kissed her and hold out his hand. ‘I know what happened to you. I will not hurt you.’ Alexis looked at him uncertainly. She had never voluntarily had sex with anyone. Her only experience was her uncle's rape and although she could easily overpower him in a duel, Loki was still physically stronger than she was. But the little voice in her head told her she wanted this. That she wanted to prove that her uncle had not broken her.

‘Let me take care of you. If you want to stop, we stop. No pressure okay?’ Loki looked at her and she gave in. ‘I trust you,’ she said and she meant it. Loki walked her over to the bed and she sat down on the edge. He kissed her and gently pushed her back so that she lay on her back. She scooted up further on the bed. With the help of his magic, he made her dress disappear, leaving her in only lingerie. She shivered in anticipation. He kissed her and made sure he was leaning on his arms, not Alexis.

Slowly he lowered his mouth. He kissed the corner of her mouth, her neck, her pulse point, and her collarbone. When he got to the swelling of her breasts, he unhooked her bra with one hand and stroked her left breast. He squeezed her nipple gently and she let out a small cry. He brought his mouth to her nipple and licked it. This made Alexis arch her back. He chuckled. ‘So eager.’ She give him a pointed look and he loved her for it.

He used his hand and his mouth on her nipple, before giving the other breast the same attention. When he finished and kissed further down, over her flat stomach, towards her panties, Alexis was moaning and wriggling under him, she felt amazing. He looked at her and asked ‘Are you sure? Do you want me to continue?’

She opened her eyes and nodded. He grinned again and pulled down her panties with his hands so that she lay naked in front of him. Feeling self-conscious, she tried to close her legs, but Loki stopped her by kissing the insides of her thighs and decided to tease her a bit. He licked and kissed her leg, past her knee, and towards her foot. ‘Loki!’

He chuckled and settled in between her thighs. Alexis became unsure for a few seconds. Surely he wasn’t going to use his mouth. Noticing her trepidation, Loki looked up, caught her gaze, and winked at her. He then used his tongue to lick her from her entrance to her clit, in a single stroke. Alexis gasped and threw her head back on the mattress. When he started licking, sucking, and biting in earnest, Alexis was sure she was moaning and screaming all over the palace. This was seriously the best thing she'd ever felt. She understood now why they called Loki Silvertongue. The feeling was unstoppable and within minutes she couldn't take it anymore. The feeling in her gut grew and grew stronger.

‘Please, Loki, I can’t..I..please,’ she begged. Loki loved to hear her beg. She was so responsive and so delicious. He licked and sucked her clit and when she reached her climax he slid two fingers inside her. Alexis screamed his name and he curled his fingers inside her, causing her to squirt.

Alexis thought she had died and gone back into her body. As her orgasm faded, Loki looked at her with a triumphant look. Jerk.

‘I want you Loki,’ she said softly, as he slowly and carefully lay down on top of her. He leaned on his arms so as not to crush her. They kissed again and Loki used his fingers to prepare her for him. With his magic, he got rid of his own clothes and Alexis looked at him with her eyes wide. He was muscular where he should be, lean and nimble, and they were a perfect match. She went a little pale when she saw how big he was, but she said she trusted him and she did. She opened her legs to him and she felt the tip of his penis push against her. Loki used all his strength to enter her as carefully as possible.

He felt it took about 10 minutes for him to be fully in her. She was very tight and he saw that it was not completely painless for her. He kissed her and apologized. He wasn't exactly small, unfortunately, and Alexis struggled not to scream. Tears leaked from her eyes and it crushed Loki to see her in pain.

‘Try to relax,’ Loki said, using his fingers to stimulate her clit. He also added a little magic to make it go smoother. This helped a bit and after a while, he felt Alexis relaxing her muscles. He moved carefully inside her and looked at her to see if it was all right. He'd never fucked anyone so inexperienced, and he didn't want to hurt her more than necessary. She opened her eyes and he was surprised for a moment when they were black, but a moment later they were green again and she moved her ass up to meet him. This made him move faster and not much later he was able to push a little harder.

He fucked her gently and because he also stroked her clit, it didn't take long for Alexis to cum again. After a few thrusts, Loki came himself and after some aftershocks, he pulled himself back and lay down next to her. She was beautiful, with her dark hair spread out on the bed and her lips swollen. She smiled at him. ‘Thank you, Loki.’ He raised his eyebrow. ‘For what love?’

‘For this. That you were so patient with me. It was amazing.’ She turned on her side and placed her hand on his chest. ‘Was it all right for you too? I mean…if I did something wrong you…’ She couldn’t finish her sentence, as Loki claimed her mouth. ‘You were and are perfect.’ He took her hand and kissed it. Not much later they both fell asleep in each other’s arms.

The room was dark when Loki woke up. He felt something strange present in the room and was alert. He looked to his side and saw that Alexis was asleep. She lay on her stomach and breathed calmly. Loki looked into the room. There...over there was something. He used his Seidr to create some light. What he saw was something unearthly. Farther up the room stood a creature, if standing was the right word. It seemed to float and consisted of wisps of smoke. Loki blinked and looked again. The creature was still there and seemed to be looking at him.

Loki grabbed a dagger and stepped out of bed onto the floor. His clothing materialized on his body and he was about to place a protective bubble around Alexis when the creature started to speak. ‘Don't you recognize me, sorcerer? You've seen me before.’ The voice was eerie and chilling and Loki knew he heard it before.

Loki realized with a shock that this thing, this creature, looked exactly like the smoke that had come out of Alexis. He looked at the sleeping woman. Then he looked at the creature in amazement. ‘You are what is inside her, or was inside her?’

The creature seemed to pulse and little strings of smoke disappeared. ‘I am what protected her. What healed her and what helped her for years. She was ignoring me and I had to act or she would have died. You helped her and now she doesn't need me anymore. I will remain inside her until the connection is broken with The Dark One.’

‘What are you? And what do you mean, Who is this Dark One?’ Loki needed more information. Was there someone trying to hurt his witch? The creature seemed to hesitate. ‘I am her servant, for she is my Master. Normally I would not have interfered, but I sensed her distress when you threatened her. I vowed she would not be hurt again, not like that, so I helped.

Loki nodded at this. Made sense. The creature continued.

‘It's not common for a young witch to be this powerful. She is the last descendant of Morgana la Fey. She has all her strength and can do great things. You have to help her. You are her strength.’ With these words, the creature seemed to dissolve. Loki watched the smoke disappear and then looked at the sleeping woman in the bed. He decided to let her sleep. Tomorrow he could also tell this and he also wanted to discuss it with his mother. He crawled back into bed next to Alexis. He pulled her to him and she sighed with satisfaction.

The room was dark when Tom woke up. He felt something strange present in the room and was immediately alert. Being a former Dark Lord meant he still had enemies. He looked to his side and saw that Hermione was asleep. She lay on her side and breathed calmly. Tom looked back into the room. There...over there was something. With the help of Lumos, he saw a creature standing in the corner, if standing was the right word. It seemed to hover and consisted of wisps of smoke. A Dementor? Tom whipped out his wand, blinked at the thing, and hoped he was dreaming. But wait…why would there be a Dementor? They had made a deal with him and he was sure he had done nothing to provoke them. He looked a bit closer and realized it was something else. The creature seemed to be looking at him.

Tom grabbed his wand a little tighter and stepped out of bed onto the floor. His clothing materialized on his body and he was about to send a spell toward the creature when it spoke to him.

‘You will not feel me anymore, wizard. I will remain in the witch until your connection is broken. You share a part of your soul and that part has to come out. Help her and heal yourself.’ With these disturbing words the creature disappeared, it simply dissolved, leaving Tom stunned. What the fuck just happened?
