Thread: In the depths of Valhalla(Finished, feedback wanted)

Re In the depths of Valhalla It was a great accomplishment that Loki had gotten Luna to leave Valhalla. He originally thought she was smarter than that and she wouldn??t fall for his empty promises. However, here she was beside him, crossing the bridge that led to Asgard. She hadn??t spoken a word to him since they had left. In truth, she wasn??t all that bad looking. Her innocence actually drew Loki to her. The sweet look to her violet eyes and her soft nearly baby fine long hair that draped around her shoulders and acted like a curtain over half her face. She would grow into a beautiful woman. Beauty that could match a goddess. All the more reason for Loki to play with Odin??s pet. Luna looked up at Loki who was grinning almost insanely. She knew he was thinking about something evil just from the look in his eyes. Perhaps it was a bad idea to go with him. ??Do you love anyone, Luna?? Loki asked, acting as if they had been old friends for ages. Luna jerked her head up at the sudden question and blushed. She had a thing for one of Odin??s sons. Balder. He was so handsome and manly and he always knew just what to say to her. He was also virtually indestructible. ??Umm..yes. I love Balder. He helped me around here quite a few times. And I met him when Odin saved me.? Luna said with a smile. She probably wouldn??t have confessed to it so easily if she had someone to talk to daily. Usually Baldur, Hermoth, Thor, and Vali were busy. ??Baldur?? Loki scoffed, his expression turning icy. ??Why not Thor? Or Hermoth? Or Vali even?? Loki had always been wary of Baldur because of him being impervious to everything. However, he was very close to Baldur??s only weakness, and he intended to use it. ??Thor is kind of scary. He??s too big for me. Hermoth is stupid because he always puts himself in dangerous situations because he cares nothing for his life. And Vali..well I think Vali already likes me.? ??Then why do you not like him?? ??Because he isn??t my type, I guess. I knew Baldur first. I love Baldur.? She simply said. Loki??s hardened expression suddenly turned into a warm one. Something Luna didn??t understand. ??I know. Do you want to spend more time with Baldur?? Loki asked with a grin. ??I know where he is all day and I can easily take you to him so you can spend more time with the man you love.? Luna looked up at him with a confused expression. ??Baldur? No. He??s too busy for me, and I??m just a Valkyrie. Gods never bear children with Valkyries.? She said simply. ??You??d be surprised my dear Luna. Come. Let us go se Baldur.? Of course, Loki was not taking her to Baldur. He was taking her to Hod, who had taken refuge in Asgard. He was Baldurs twin brother, and once long ago Loki had promised to fetch him a woman. Now he could stay on good terms with the God, just in case he needed to use him again. When they crossed the bridge and arrived in Asgard, Loki pulled Luna to a small cottage. ??Why would he be here?? Luna demanded, folding her arms. Loki grinned as he opened the door and dragged Luna inside. ??Patience, dear. You will see. Baldur?? Loki called. Hod came into the large room that was the sitting room and raised an eyebrow. ??Loki? What are you?? ??What I am doing Baldur is giving you a chance to be with a very attractive woman. You should take it.? Loki replied. Luna blushed when she saw Hod come into the room, and she looked down at her feet, thinking he was Baldur. Hod looked at her and admired her for a bit before sighing. Loki had finally kept his promise and given him a woman, but he had tricked her. ??I see. Then leave us Loki. I want to speak to this maiden in private.? ??Sure. I will be back to pick you up, Luna.? Loki had purposely said her name so that Hod would know it. If all went well, Loki would have another show to watch soon. Hod??s jealousy of his brother would show soon enough. As Loki left, Hod sat in his chair. Luna sat down across from him and smiled. ??How are you, Baldur? Its been a while since we??ve been alone. What are you doing in a place like this?? Luna asked, giving him a puzzled look. Hod sighed. ??You know. I like to get away from father and all the other people who bother me.? ??I thought you were fighting in Valhalla?? Luna asked, cocking her head to the side. Hod realized he would have to keep her from asking questions, otherwise he??d be in real trouble. ??I??ve grown bored of that. However, I need something to make me feel a bit more alive.? Hod??s teal eyes rested on Luna. Luna smiled, trying to keep their gazes connected. ??What do you mean?? She asked Hod with a smile, cocking her head to the side. ??I mean?? Hod said, getting up from his chair and standing over her. Suddenly he knelt down and took her hand, placing a gentle kiss on it. ??I need you. You are my life, Luna.? Hod simply said. ??But..? Luna breathed but was cut off by Hods kiss. She never remembered Baldur being so aggressive with women, but she liked it. She closed her eyes and allowed him to kiss her, her body relaxing as his arms wrapped around her and pulled her from the wooden chair, picking her up and carrying her to his room.
