Chapter 3
"Hello, lady Samara" Loki met her with a smile.
"Good morning, lord Lucas" Samara bowed a little.
"Oh no, don't... can we please not do these formalities and all. I like the way we are going until now"
"Alright. So how was your day?" Samara asked.
"It was usual. Meetings and diplomacy and all"
"You should be doing that with all your heart. You might become an advisor one day"
They started walking along the shore. "Initially it was amazing but then you can't eat chicken everyday. Are you understanding what I am saying?"
"Yeah, some day you want to eat pork or meat. I got it"
He laughed. "I can't understand Samara. There is something in you that I found you amazing. What is that?" He looked at her like finding something.
"I am beautiful"
"Trust me you are but even before I saw you I liked you somehow"
"Well you must like my figure then" she swirled around.
"And today you are ok with that thought? Aren't you going to warn me or remind me today that males only think about one thing"
"Hmm..." she was tapping her chin like children were thinking. "No, I think you'll not force yourself on me and I am certainly not ready to bed you. So that's not going to happen. I don't think you will think like that"
"Well, this sudden confidence in a stranger could be dangerous, my lady" he came closer and played with her locks. Giving her dangerous look.
"I know how to fight" she pushed him away.
"Aha... I have to be aware then" they smiled.
After a long pause,
"I can't believe you are normally talking to me without your frowned or furious look" Loki said.
She opened her mouth in shock. "Huh... I am not furious. You are furious, look at you. You came to me first day without warning. I might have slapped you for your boldness"
"Believe me no one ever has courage to say that to me"
"Ok, may be I could have kicked you in the crotch and then elbowed you on the back and then when you fell...."
"Alright, alright that's enough. No one has ever said me that too. You are so straight forward. I see you are not even a bit intimidated by me"
"I don't fear my friends"
"So we are friends then?" He asked
"Yes, what else? And I want to keep it just like that. Nothing more"
"I can't promise"
She frowned and about to say something when they heard a loud roaring sound. They turned to see a gaint creature in the sea.
Loki held her hand and told her to go but she wanted to see the dragon. "How many times a person get to see these kinds of crearures? I want to see it"
"Yeah, you haven't seen it that's why you are safe"
He took her in bunch of trees and tied her with a tree. "Stay here until I come back. I'll come with help"
Dragon slowly approached the trees. And inhaled to release fire to burn them. Samara screamed but soon she realised that she is protected by a spell under a transparent globe. Then dragon tried to break that globe with everything possible. "Of all the places you found only this one to destroy" Samara said.
Loki felt his spell breaking, he tried to approach the beach faster. Soon guards came and distracted the dragon and Loki held her hand and took her away into the city. He didn't want anyone to call him prince in front of her so he was taking her somewhere alone but she was struggling.
He picked her up over shoulder while she continues to punch his back. When he stopped and put her down she turned to leave but he caught her. She slapped him so he held her wrists in one hand above her head pinning her to the wall.
A fear ran through her spine. He was looking at her dangerously. Never ever she felt like this. Vulnerable in front of a man. There was something more in his eyes. Soon he realised that he was scaring her, he blinked and opened his eyes that softness was back and he released her.
That was different he looked at her like a predator and she found it seducing and intimidating too. It's like he will take her right there like a crazy animal and more fearful thing for her was she was liking this idea. But she hate it. She always hate affection or anything like that.
"I am sorry. You were protecting me and I was being a fool" she found herself saying that.
Loki turned to see her. "No. I am sorry. I scared you" he put hand on the nape of her neck. She hates this.
His eyes where dancing on her eyes to lips repeatedly. She broke the moment and stepped away. "Will they kill him?"
Loki assured "no, they will train him to use for the benefit of asgard. We don't have these kind of creatures here. It's from some other realm. It's like a treasure for us"
"Don't they find a dragon missing from there realm. We should give it back"
"Well, that sea in which it was, it connects with Vanaheim and Midgard. Midgard doesn't have these kind of creatures so it's more likely from Vanaheim and we don't have good relations with Vanaheim so it is our's now"
She nodded slowly and turned to leave but he stopped her. "Where are you going, Samara?"
"I am going home. It's late"
"I'll walk you back...."
"No" she cut him. "I can go by myself" and she left.
