Chapter 10
Ever since Loki had put her on the bed after the kiss, Sigyn didn't moved even a little. She is watching Loki going here and there. He fed her the dinner they bought. She was still not at all moving. She was in shock maybe or maybe she was thinking something else.
Her mind went from best future to worst. She thought about marrying Loki but she didn't know her exact feelings. Then she thought about leaving him just in the morning because she hate vulnerabilities. Weakness always cost in something bigger. She don't want to loose anyone anymore.
Loki's voice disturbed her from her thoughts. "What is this on my lips?"
Loki took it on his lips.
"It's something chocolaty. I haven't eaten any chocolate"
Her eyes widened, she ran to bathroom to look at herself in the mirror. She saw nothing was out of place. Her lips were totally covered with paint.
Loki entered in the bathroom. "Why are you checking your lips?"
"It's nothing"
She tried to exit but Loki held her hand. "Sigyn, I showed you my true self because I trust you, it's your turn now"
She bored her eyes into his. "I don't know what are you talking about"
"You don't know?" He raised his eyebrow.
She snapped her arm away from his grip. "Stay away from me. You know the difference between you and me. Stop getting more familiar. Even if you are not a prince of asgard, you are a prince of joutunheim and you very well know that my tribe was forbidden to have any relation with royals specially after we became adults"
"We? You are the last one left, Sigyn" he tried to held her shoulder but she stepped away.
"No one need to know you are kamiran"
"But I know who I am and what I was taught. That I am lowly creature, can't touch higher people, can't eat with them, can't make relations with them, can't sleep on beds, can't have luxuries of life"
"All this because of this colour you still wear. If you came out of it. You are just like us. No one needs to know what blood flows in you"
Kamirans were born with dark skin until one day a kamiran made a relation with higher class and since then their bloodline started to become white. More and more girls betrayed their morals of staying away from higher class people and more fairer girl were taking birth in there tribe. But when terrorists started kidnapping and killing girls of Sigyn's tribe they all decided to hide fair women in dark colour. Sigyn never stopped doing that ever since.
Sigyn decided to leave him in the morning. She stepped out of the bathroom but Loki took her and opened shower taps on her head and rubbed her face and colour started leaving the skin.
He showed her the mirror. "Look at you, you are not even fully kamiran. You are half noble blood"
She was feeling naked without colour. Her face was red and she shouted. "Who gave you right to do that? I hate you... I hate to feel so weak... so... so vulnerable. Anybody can hurt me now"
"Who will hurt you? Everyone has to go through me before hurting you and you are not vulnerable or weak without that colour. You are more stronger. You should not be afraid to show everyone who you are. You are much more stronger than any man I've seen in my entire life"
She left the room instantly with no intention to come back and Loki couldn't be able to catch her.
Loki felt so afraid to loose Sigyn. He tried to find out Sigyn with magic but his magic never works at his will. Night passed in great worry.
Loki was sleeping when Sigyn entered the room with anxious face in the morning. "Elves attacked asgard, we have to go"
Loki frowned "who?"
"Elves of alfheim attack asgard, we must go Loki"
She gathered all the things but Loki didn't move even a bit. "We have to go. Are you coming?"
Loki faced away from her. "I am not going there again"
"What? That is our home"
"Your not mine. And what have the king ever did to me so that I help him even Asgardians hate me. I have no reason to save them"
"I can't believe you. You have a family there to protect. Your brother, your mother"
"They know how to protect themselves. They don't need me"
"Every soldier is important in the war and your are realm's prince"
"I am not anywhere's prince. I am not wasting my efforts to go there and save people who hate me just to be put into dungeons again"
She pursed her lips and collected her weapons. "Fine I am going"
Loki said "If you care for them more than me... just go but if you care for me more than those fools just stay"
Sigyn replied "and if you care for me, come with me else you could stay here"
With that she went.
