You've just come off a bad breakup where your ex-boyfriend accused you of being boring, safe, and predictable, so you resolve to immediately go do something completely out of character to prove him wrong: you decide to visit the infamous biker bar known as Hel. However, you bump into a drunken reprobate outside and in the ensuing brawl, you meet the bar's owner, none other than a biker by the name of Thor Odinson. To make up for the drunkard, he invites you inside for free drinks and you find out that Hel is actually paradise, full of good mead, good music, and a rather hunky biker that seems to have his eye on you. Biker Thor/Reader AU two-shot.
What do you think biker!Loki would be as a boyfriend? Would he be sweet and caring while he gives you a ride around the city and makes occasional stops to take pictures whit you on his camera? Or maybe brooding silent type who likes to see you sit on his bike and then proceeds to fuck you on it? Or maybe one of those people who loves to see his clothes like his jacket on your shoulder, or maybe one of those people who lives for the classic romantic moments while shielding you form the rain while he holds his jacket above your head while you hands are on his cheeks warming them and making sure he shares some of that heat…🧎🏻♀️😍🏍️
OH MY GOODNESS! Happy Saturday!! I’m so sorry I’m late to the sleep over 😳! Jeezus, sorry 😳. I’ve got a thot…Biker Loki. Just that…that’s all. Just that mop of black hair, that mischievous smile and that motorcycle okay done. Sorry sorry I couldn’t help🤤.
HAPPY SATURDAY MY DARLING!!! Oh you're definitely not late! It's happening all weekend so you can drop in at any time. It's also happening next weekend and the next and the next. You get it.
You're awakening something in me and I am liking your mind! I'm not going to lie. Biker Thor was in my head the other day and Biker Loki was right behind him. Are you reading my thoughts? I feel like you are. (also i feel like you've seen my wips list which is 80% bikers)
Just the bike he has being the shade of green that looks almost black. Snakes painted over it. His jacket matching the color of his bike. And on the back is a patch sewn into it that says God of Mischief. He's the biker who wears rings on his fingers because he believes he has to look the best. Even as he shoves a dagger into his dirt/blood stained combat boots.
Your next ask is going to get a whole ass drabble with biker Loki. Cause I can SEE IT.

A/N: PLEASE READ THIS, IT’S VERY IMPORTANT. As we all know, Tumblr is not showing the posts that contain links, so I won’t be able to link the previous chapters or the masterlist. You have the link of the Masterlist on my profile and also the link to my taglist, so please check them out. WE ARE REACHING THE END FOLKS, I THINK I WILL WRITE ONE CHAPTER MORE AND THE EPILOGUE, HEHE.
You woke up to an empty bed again. You stretched your arms and smiled remembering last night’s events. You felt like a huge burden had been taken off of your shoulders and now you could finally breathe.
The first night you slept with Loki, it was cold and loveless, you were both seeking pleasure and you were also drunk. But last night was a pure expression of love and adoration. He worshipped you and your body like a goddess, exploring every inch of skin with his lips, leaving kisses and marks everywhere. You learned all his weak spots and what drove him wild, spending as much time as you could caressing and loving his body.
You really thought sex was going to be weird since he was your best friend and he knew so much about you, but you were wrong.
“Are you finally going nuts?” Loki asked you from the door staring at you in awe since you were giggling alone. You sat down to look at him wrapping the duvet around your naked body. He was wearing a pair of pajama pants that hung loosely on his hips, his torso naked exposing all his muscles. He was carrying a tray with two cups of coffee and breakfast.
“Thinking of you makes me go nuts.” You answered him shooting after a huge sweet smile when he approached the bed. He left the tray next to you and leaned in to give your lips a small peck.
“Loki, stop thinking so loud and ask me whatever you want to know.” Your breakfast was almost finished when you realized something was off, Loki was usually the one that did all the talking in the mornings. He swallowed the strawberry he was chewing and cleared his throat nervously.
“I was thinking that maybe we could... I mean...If you want to...we could go together to tonight’s party?” You set aside your cup of coffee and stared at him frowning in confusion. You thought it was obvious since you already lived together and you both were going to the same party at Shay’s house, unless his question meant something deeper.
“Are you asking me to be your girlfriend?” You knew you sounded way too amused but seeing Loki all nervous and trying to be cute as fuck made you weak.
“Maybe?” You giggled and kissed him, sensing his body instantly relax when your skin touched his. You pulled away and smiled at him.
“Oh my god, I just remembered I have something for you!” You stood up and ran to your room, trying to remember where you placed the small box. Once you had it you ran back to Loki’s room and jumped on the bed, sitting down in front of a startled and confused Loki.
“Remember you asked me to buy for you a bow tie? Well, I did.” You handed him the small box and stared at him with a wide smile, waiting for his reaction. Loki took the little piece carefully, looking at every single detail in it. He looked up at you and smiled.
“I love it! It’s so original, thank you very much.” It was a black bow tie with little constellations in white and it perfectly matched your dress, that’s why you bought it, even though you were just friends when you did. Deep down, you knew you were going together to that party.
“You know what’s the best of it?” Loki shook his head and waited for you to answer.
“It matches my dress.”
-
When Loki saw you in your dress he thought that the statement that he was in love was not accurate enough. You were fixing your hair in the bathroom so you totally missed the look in his face and the silent tears that fell from his green eyes. He felt so overwhelmed by all the feelings he was experimenting all at once. He was always the second best for everyone but his mother, and when she died, he thought no one would ever love him as much as she did. Loki was totally wrong.
“Do you think this is going to work out?” You stopped dead in your tracks, ignoring the freezing air of the winter night. You stood in front of him and pressed your hand to his chest.
“If you don’t want to go, we can always order takeout and have dinner at home.” Loki shook his head, feeling guilty because you didn’t get the question he was implicitly asking.
“I mean us. I don’t want to lose you, ever.” He looked at the hand you had pressed on his chest, trying to avoid your gaze. With your other hand, you cupped his cheek and made him look at you.
“We’ve been inseparable friends for two months, roommates for almost a year. You know me better than anyone and I know you just as well.” He leaned into your touch and let out a sigh. “We might be like fire and gasoline, but I would rather burn with you than walk away from this because I’m scared.”
“Are you scared?” Loki asked trying not to cry with your confession. He gulped and looked at you with glazed eyes, the fear permanent in his stare. You moved the hand from his face to his chest, so both of your hands were now resting there.
“Of course I am. But I’ve been afraid for too long, trying to fill my empty heart with sex and alcohol and the only thing that worked was you. I’m in love with you, every little part that makes you you. Besides, we haven’t fought since we became friends, so there’s nothing to worry about.”
“You might be right. I guess then we should burn tonight.” He smirked at you and you hit his chest playfully laughing alongside him.
After dinner, you were chatting lively with Bucky about the exhibition he was preparing while Shay and Loki were nowhere to be seen, probably talking about their stuff more privately.
“So, I can guess things with Loki went okay?” Bucky asked you, a wide grin telling you he already knew your answer. You threw at him a bashful smile, your cheeks burning in embarrassment.
“Yes, we finally admitted our feelings so I guess we are now together?” You shrugged and waited for his answer, but just when he was about to talk, Shay and Loki entered the room to make an announcement. Everyone fell silent and stared at them.
“As you all know...Buck come here” She gestured for Bucky to move besides her and so he did. “As I was saying, you all know we’ve been together for five years and I’m 1000% sure he is the love of my life, so…” Shay kneeled in front of Bucky and took out a small velvet box, grinning like a dork. “Would you marry me?”
Bucky lifted her from the floor in a hug and spun her around, her dress floating like a cloud. He kissed her with tears in his eyes and answered a million times yes. You were shedding a few happy tears for your friends and looked at Loki, who was staring at them crying as well. He looked at you and gestured you to go next to him, so you stood up confused and went to his side.
“You are not asking me to marry you, right?” You asked him in his ear jokingly, but just in case you wanted to let him know.
“You will see now.” Loki started clapping and congratulating the couple and the whole room did the same, all their friends cheering them and joking about the odd proposal. After their moment died down, Loki cleared his throat and held your hand, everyone’s attention now focused on you two. You were starting to panic, your hands sweating, not sure what was going on right now.
“Hello dear friends. I want to introduce you to Y/n, my not so newly found muse and the woman I am in love with.” Everyone gasped and Loki laughed. “By your reactions, I’m sure you all read my new book, so she is the one Sassa, the protagonist, is inspired in.” He kept talking about the book for a while and you quietly moved to your seat, overwhelmed by the fact that one of your favorite characters of all times was inspired by you. Now that you thought of it, you found the resemblances in the plot and in the main characters. Loki wrote about you and him even before you were a thing or even friends. That meant he had been in love with you a long while but instead of telling you, he wrote about it. You looked at him and felt a warmness fill your heart when you caught him staring at you already with a wide smile.
The television was broadcasting live the party at Rockefeller Center and when the clock struck midnight, you kissed Loki. All the sounds and voices around you disappearing until all you could feel was him.
Last chapter : Y/N has become the official chief of the Cassidy’s gang. In the meantime, Loki accepts to help kidnap and seduce the young woman in order to regain the esteem of his own clan.
Summary : Y/N is the chief of Bucky’s gang, the Cassidys. While she’s in a peaceful relationship with him, the young woman has to deal with tough guys. What she isn’t expecting is that Loki, a mysterious member of an enemy gang, infiltrates her crew …
Y/N was lost in her thoughts as she rode peacefully. It was just another beautiful day under the burning sun and she loved it.
The young woman took advantage of the straight road to close her eyes for a moment, just one.
Suddenly, the engine raced, dealing too much strength and Y/N lost control on her motorcycle. Fuck. Don’t panic. She took a deep breath and glanced at the side of the road. Y/N did her best, tugging at the handlebars to straighten the path of her motorcycle, but nothing did it. It’s going to hurt anyway. Once again, the young woman inhaled deeply and extracted her hands of her gloves. Fuck it. She jumped on the side, rolling into the sand as she violently hit the ground. ‘’Shit !’’ she growled, mostly because her motorbike crashed a few inches from her.
Y/N let her head fall back on the sand as she caught her breath. What the hell did just happen ? The young woman sat up, observing the damages. Thick clouds of dark smoke came out from the engine and she got closer, frowning as she tried to understand what the matter was. A ray of light reflected off a piece of metal she had never seen before and she stretched her arm to grab it, unsuccessfully.
From the distance, Y/N heard another motorcycle roaring. Shit. Was it a trap ? Her heart started racing in her chest as she quickly looked for some place to hide. Fucking empty desert ! Before she could even run away, she saw an unknown motorcycle approaching. Dazzled by the sunlight, Y/N had nothing left but hope. The biker pulled over and her eyes narrowed as she wondered who it was. A silence fell between them and Y/N heard the wind whispering something to her ear. Careful Y/N ...
‘’Need help ?’’ his voice finally broke the silence as he adjusted the kickstand of his motorcycle. Y/N could now distinguish the stranger’s features. He was tall, rather young. His dark hair and pale skin told her he wasn’t a local. Still suspicious, Y/N shook her head, ‘’I’ll be fine.’’ With that, she bent towards the remains of her motorcycle and cursed as she tried to grab the piece of metal that still sparkled behind the wheel. Finally, she heard a swift noise and managed to pull the blade out of the debris. Got you. Discreetly then, Y/N put it into her pocket.
Her bike was definitely lost. Behind her, the man cleared his throat, ‘’Are you sure you don’t need any assistance ?’’ Y/N dusted herself off and rolled her eyes as she turned to the source of the insistent voice, ‘’I’ve got this ...’’ she sighed, but there, she stopped. The mysterious man was surprisingly handsome. Stay focused ... Recollecting herself, Y/N shrugged ‘’You’re gonna stay here all night ? Because that’s weird.’’ she spat. ‘’My name is Loki.’’ he reached out to shake her hand, ‘’And there comes the weird name ...’’ she muttered, but wrapped her fingers around his hand. Loki gave her a satisfied smile and nodded towards the motorcycle, ‘’I didn’t mean to scare you.’’ what ? Proud, Y/N scrunched an eyebrow, ‘’You didn’t.’’ Loki stared at her, a wide grin spreading on his lips, ‘’Why refusing my help then ? You can’t ride ... this thing.’’ he took a quick glance at the broken motorcycle. Unfortunately he was right, there was no way Y/N could ride it again. After some hesitation, the young woman surrendered, ‘’Who are you ?’’
‘’I told you, my name is ...’’ Y/N cut him off, ‘’Where are you from, what are you even doing here ?’’ Loki shrugged, ‘’I was just passing by. I’m moving into town, looking for a place to stay for a while.’’
Y/N kept staring at him, inspecting every detail her eyes were able to catch. She could smell he was trouble from miles away, and yet there was something so attractive about him that was impossible to ignore.
‘’Can you give me a lift ?’’ Y/N risked, shifting on her feet. Loki’s eyes sparkled as she spoke, ‘’Of course. Miss ?...’’ the young woman looked up to the sky, hoping it wasn’t a huge mistake, ‘’I’m Y/N. Y/N/ Y/L/N.’’
With that, Y/N finally let Loki drive her home.
On the road, she had to hold him tighter as they went faster than she usually did. Secretly, Y/N enjoyed feeling the abdominal muscles of the mysterious man under her fingers. Her head rested on his back and she didn’t even know why, but her heart started to beat faster. Think about something else, anything else ... Focusing on the landscape, the young woman slightly released her grip, causing her fingers to dangerously slide down Loki’s waist. The muscles tensed beneath her hands, bringing her back to reality. Y/N recognized the funny fluttery feeling in her stomach and quickly glided her fingers back up on his chest. Shit.
Loki pulled over in front of the hotel and as soon as the motorcycle slowed down, Y/N jumped of it. While Loki stopped the engine, the young woman closed her eyes. She couldn’t do this. She had Bucky, her Bucky. He was the one. ‘’You’re running a hotel ?’’ Loki’s voice came tingling her ear, ‘’Yeah sort of ... Listen, thanks for the lift ...’’ his piercing eyes met Y/N’s and he stepped towards her, ‘’Do you have free rooms ?’’ the young woman felt her stomach tightening. When you’re fucked, you’re fucked. ‘’Yes.’’ she paused, blood rushing to her face, ‘’I mean, maybe. I’ll have to check.’’ Loki slowly nodded. He was incredibly close and the increasing sexual tension Y/N was feeling became almost unbearable. ‘’Well, after you, Y/N.’’
Come on, you can do it ... The young woman walked around the desk and grabbed a key she handed to Loki. ‘’Here, this one is free.’’ she declared. Loki’s fingertips brushed against hers as he grabbed the small object and she felt it. The electricity, the warmth of his skin, the attraction. Looking up at him, she saw his eyes sparkling again.
However, a familiar voice broke them out of their reverie, ‘’Hey sweetie,’’ Bucky stormed into the room like a cyclone, ruining the moment. Planting a kiss on Y/N’s lips, he didn’t even seem to notice her messy hair and the scratch on her cheek. Instead, he glared at Loki and wrapped his arm around Y/N’s waist. Shit, shit, shit. The young woman gave an apologetic gaze to her now client ‘’Welcome to the Cassidy’s hotel, Sir. You can call the reception if you need anything ...’’ as she slightly looked down, Y/N could have sworn Loki’s fists were clenching. ‘’But this pretty girl is mine !’’ Bucky interrupted her, pressing his lips against her temple while his girlfriend pretended to fill the record, ‘’Do I know you ? I’m pretty sure I know you …’’ his eyes narrowed as he observed the new client. ‘’I don’t think so, I was in Philadelphia lately …’’ Loki chuckled uncomfortably. Elle’s boyfriend wasn’t buying it, ‘’Nah, I know you.’’ he started to sound threatening, ‘’I saw you somewhere, in town ...’’ Unbelievable. Is he really doing that ? Elle was losing patience. This interrogatory was absolutely ridiculous. ‘’Alright, Buck, I think you got … work, things to do.’’ Y/N patted his shoulder, beckoning him to leave.
‘’See you later then, sir.’’ once more, Bucky glared at Loki before disappearing in the backroom. Holy shit. He’s going to hear me about this. Elle’s cheeks had turned crimson.
Instead of leaving, Loki leaned against the desk, enough to talk without being heard by Bucky, ‘’Are you alright ?’’ Y/N took a look around her and nodded vigorously, ‘’Yeah ... He’s my ... boyfriend.’’ a faint smile crossed Loki’s lips, ‘’I think I got it. I was talking about these ...’’ With his fingertips, he gently traced the outline of a scratch she had on her hand. Oh. This time, Y/N wasn’t dreaming.
‘’Would you have time to show me my room, Miss Y/L/N ? I’m not quite sure I can find it alone.’’

“Y/n, I don’t want to be rude or meddle but-”
“Then don’t.” You cut Shay off. After what happened in the bookshop, Shay and Bucky offered you to stay with them for as long as you needed, thinking that you would just stay for the rest of the day, not for almost two days. You knew you were overreacting by pushing Loki away and giving him the silent treatment, even when he came to see you to talk to you but after a few tries, he decided to give you the space you needed. He stopped calling, texting and showing up, he knew for sure you would want to talk to him sooner or later.
“Well, I have to. You need to talk to him, or at least hear what he has to say.” You rolled your eyes annoyed, because you knew she was right. You began to protest but Bucky cut you off.
“Y/n, you should hear it from him but since you are being a stubborn child, I’ll tell you. He didn’t tell you because as you know, he is a very famous writer and the tabloids are always waiting to expose anything.” Bucky sighed loudly and kept talking. “When he showed up to one of our last exhibitions, there was a rumor saying we were a polyamorous relationship. He just wanted to protect you from all this.” You fell silent, the stupidity of your acts weighting on your chest. Bucky shook his head in disagreement and left the room, Shay looking at you with a huge grin plastered on her face.
“What?” You asked her raising an eyebrow fighting the urge to smile at her face.
“Do you realize you sucked your idol’s dick?” She bursted out laughing when you hit her with a pillow, her laugh making you laugh as well. After almost ten minutes laughing like maniacs, you wiped your tears and laid down on the bed, sighing while closing your eyes.
“I should really go home and talk to him, right?” Shay answered a “yup” and patted your leg, she stood up from the bed and made her way out of the room.
“You better get the fuck out of my house soon if you don’t want Bucky to murder you.” She added from the door between laughs. “He’s been trying to fuck my brains out on the kitchen counter but…” She whispered and shrugged, winking an eye at you and closing the door behind her. You shook your head and tried to control your laughter.
After you gathered your stuff, you went to the kitchen to tell Shay and Bucky you were leaving and found them in a very intense makeout session. Shay was sitting in the counter and Bucky was kissing and groping her everywhere.
“Uhm, guys I’m gonna go home. Thank you so much for everything and yeah, bye!” You didn’t even stop or waited for them to answer and bolted out of the apartment. You grabbed your phone and opened Loki’s chat, scrolling through all his messages you left on read. All of them pained you but not as much as the last one.
Loki: I know you are hurt and I played with your trust, but I want you to know that I’d never hide you from anyone and I would love to let the world know my heart is only yours. I don’t expect you to come back soon, since I know you need your time to process what I’ve done, I just hope you will try to forgive me. I am truly sorry and I hope this isn’t too broken, I really want to fix this.
You wiped a silent tear that fell from your eyes and texted him asking if he was at home and you received and immediate response, he was waiting for you. He waited for you.
As you walked down the streets, the cold air hitting your face like sharp knives, you were thinking about how stupid you had been, leaving him like that for almost two days and not even daring to pick up the phone or answer a text. You decided it was time to call the only person that new Loki more than you did.
“Hello? Thor?”
-
After more than an hour speaking to Thor, everything seemed to be much clearer. When you told him that you were in love with Loki he just laughed, admitting that he knew what was going to happen as soon as you two really got to know each other and that it was all planned from the start. The advice he gave you was not to run away from his brother, since he also had his own traumas and bad experiences. Odin, his father, made him feel abandoned and rejected so it was very hard for him to trust that someone else wouldn’t do the same. You knew damn too well you would never do that to him, but as Thor said “Loki is not in your mind to know what you are feeling and thinking”.
You gave your cigarette a couple of more puffs and threw it away, taking a deep breath and entering the apartment building. The elevator ride was eternal, your hand sore because you couldn’t stop scratching it due to the anxiety you were feeling.
As soon as Loki heard the keys on the lock his heart sank deeper in his chest, the strong fear of remorse and rejection hitting him like a truck. He stood up and ran to the bathroom trying to fix the disaster he was. His hair was a greasy tangled mess so he combed it and made a braid, he brushed his teeth rapidly and washed his face with cold water to clear his mind. When he came out of the bathroom, he found you sitting in the couch looking at him, a sad smile on your lips. He tried his best not to run to your arms and crush you with his body so instead, he walked slowly and sat on the other side of the couch, waiting for you to make the first move.
What he would have never imagined was you throwing yourself into his arms pressing his body to yours.
“Oh god Loki, I’ve missed you so much, I am so sorry.” You cried, all the pent up emotions finally flowing out of your mind. You started rambling and mumbling unintelligible apologies while Loki just sat there, stroking gently your hair, waiting for you to calm down.
“Love, there’s nothing to forgive. I should be the one apologizing for being such a jerk. I know I should have told you as soon as we talked about our jobs. But I didn’t and then everything happened way too fast and I thought it was too late to tell you.”
“I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my life but the worst one was letting you leave from that book store without an explanation.” You opened your mouth to say something but he cut you off.
“No, please. Let me finish, because if I don’t do this now, I’ll probably never be able to say it.” You nodded when you realized he was waiting for your permission so he could keep speaking.
“These past days had been like hell for me, I couldn’t eat or sleep and all I could think about was you. I’ve missed you like I’ve never missed anyone else in my life and even though I’ve known this since the first time I really saw you, I’ve realized I’m totally and crazy in love with you. There’s no one else for me, just you.” He took a deep breath and stared at you, waiting for some sort of answer in your shocked expression.
“Y/n? I’m sorry if this is too much, I just had to get it off my chest.” You really wanted to answer that you loved him too, that you felt the same way, but your voice was not coming out of your mouth, so you just pressed your head against his chest and cried again, all the new emotions overwhelming you. You managed to stop crying after a while and looked at him, ready to talk.
“I- I really thought I knew what love was. I was certain that I was in love with Eric and that he was the one. But you buried yourself so deep in my heart that now I don’t know who I even was before I met you. You’ve been there when I needed you the most and you‘ve taught me to embrace myself and my weirdness, you’ve taught me how to love and how to be loved.” You pressed your forehead against his, closing your eyes and letting the last tears run down your cheeks. Loki wiped them off and placed his hand on your cheek, stroking your skin with his thumb. You leaned in and pressed your lips against his, trying to reassure his fears and trying to make him feel all the love you had for him.
Loki deepened the kiss and you straddled him, wanting and needing to be closer to him. You broke the kiss and looked at him, finally understanding the odd look he always had when he looked at you. Love and desire.

Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3 - Part 4 - Part 5 - Part 6 - Part 7 - Part 8 - Part 9 - Part 10 / Series Masterlist
After what happened at Christmas Eve with Loki, you tried to avoid thinking about it, thinking that maybe it was the alcohol making you paranoid, because between you and him, there was nothing.
Loki knew avoiding you was wrong, he needed to clear his mind and focus on his work, but everytime he tried to think about something else, you popped into his mind. He was at the kitchen having his third coffee, since he couldn’t sleep last night, the nightmares waking him and haunting him. He heard steps coming from your room and he knew it was too suspicious to leave the kitchen now, since you knew he was there, so he just breathed a couple of times trying to gather his thoughts and get back to the forgotten book on the counter.
You entered the kitchen, the smell of freshly brewed coffee filling your sleepy senses. You closed your eyes for a second and smiled, totally ignoring the fact that Loki was staring at you wide eyed, his heart pounding loudly on his chest at the sight of you. You were wearing a big long shirt, your hair pulled up in a messy ponytail and last night’s makeup smudged under your eyes. You thought when you looked at yourself in the mirror that you looked gross, but he thought he’d never seen you more beautiful. Loki shook his head at his thoughts and cleared his throat, focusing back on his book right on time, before you opened your eyes.
“Good morning, babe.” You smiled at him and he lifted his head from the book he seemed too immersed in. His green eyes looked at your hazel ones, that odd glint in his eyes again.
“Hey. I made coffee for you.” You grinned and reached for your cup and poured the dark elixir of gods into it.
“By the way, don’t call me babe, please.” He said between laughs and you followed him. You sat in silence next to him for about five minutes, thinking about what you could say, but just when you were about to open your mouth, a message popped in your phone.
Shay: Bitch, get ready. I will pick you up in an hour, we are going shopping.
You smiled at your phone and Loki frowned, not even trying to hide the pang of jealousy he felt. You looked at him, still smiling but it fell as soon as you saw his expression.
“Shay just texted me, we are going shopping in an hour. Do you need anything for the party?” As soon as he heard your friend’s name, he felt like he could breathe again and he smiled.
“I really need a bow tie for my suit, so if you could please bring me one?” You nodded, taking a sip of your coffee, closing your eyes at the sensation of warmth you thought the hot liquid was giving you. You finished your drink, you went to get ready as fast as you could and stepped out of your room, expecting Loki to be in the kitchen, but he was already blasting his music. You knocked on his door, not knowing why. Subconsciously, you wanted him to see your outfit, remembering the face he made when he first saw you in your leather jacket and combat boots. He opened the door and stepped outside, his body not letting you see his room. He looked at you from head to toes, and frowned when he reached your face, wondering what you wanted.
“I’m leaving now, I’ll be back after work, so maybe we could watch a movie or something?” You shrugged, the confidence you felt, leaving you. He nodded and rubbed the back of his head nervously.
“I’m…” He cleared his throat. “I mean, yeah. Sounds great.” You smiled widely, suddenly excited for tonight.
“So, uhm, I gotta go.” You turned around frowning and shaking your head at yourself for sounding so stupid
-
“I can’t afford that gown and I also think is too much.” You stated while reading the menu on the greek restaurant. You heard Shay huff and you looked up.
“Listen, I am ridiculously rich, so consider it my late Christmas present.” She left no room to argue, looking back at her menu. You knew the dress was a work of the gods as soon as you saw it, even the dress had a goddess’ name. The gown was made of black tulle with a black silk lining, hand-embroidered in gold threadwork, creating constellations on the skirt and a gold bullion bodice. Shay convinced you to try it even though it was see-through, with a very long v neckline and expensive as fuck, and of course you fell in love with it as soon as you saw yourself in it.
“You know that dress was made for you. So please, consider it.” You thought that maybe when you started eating, she would forget about the dress, but she was stubborn. She tried a dress from the same designers that was amazingly gorgeous but she said it looked too similar to yours.
“I will let you buy me that expensive as fuck dress if you buy the one you tried, no excuses.” She swallowed her food and sighed, rolling her eyes.
“Deal. But I hope you know that right now, I love this tzatziki more than I love you.” You laughed at her words and shook your head. You were so glad you met Shay and Bucky, you hit it off immediately with them, specially with her. Since Val left to live with her girlfriend abroad, you felt kind of lonely, missing a close friendship with a woman. Loki was an amazing friend, but sometimes you needed this kind of dates with friends.
“Bitch, I can’t wait to see Loki’s face when he sees you in this fucking gown.” You looked at her, fear on your eyes, and asked her what she meant with that. Loki and you were just friends, nothing else. Just friends.
“Are you still lying to yourself, making you think you are just friends?”
“Shay, I really don’t know what you mean. I really believe we are just friends. I recently had a bad experience and-”
“Yeah, yeah, I know what happened with that asshole. But that doesn’t answer my question. What are you so afraid of?” You anxiously looked around the coffee shop, trying to avoid eye contact. After lunch, you went to buy the dresses and you decided it was a good idea to have a coffee before your shift at the bookshop. You inhaled and sighed heavily, looking at her brown eyes.
“I-I don’t know, Shay. I’m just terrified.” You stuttered, feeling the tears in the corner of your eyes. You closed your eyes and gulped, trying to swallow your unknown feelings, trying to avoid any kind of enlightenment towards your friendship with Loki. You needed him, you couldn’t afford to lose him as well.
“Just don’t force yourself to ignore what’s in front of you, out of fear.” You nodded and held her hand in yours.
“Thank you, for this and for your friendship. I know it’s been less than a week, but I feel like I’ve known you forever.” She squeezed your hand and smiled at you, agreeing with you . You had the feeling that she would play an important role in your life as soon as you met her and what you did today, was just the confirmation of it.
You were walking to your work, speaking lively with her about your plans for the party they were throwing in New Year’s Eve. You stopped dead in your tracks when you saw the poster on the bookshop’s door. You jumped excited and Shay was staring at you in awe.
“Oh my god, my favorite writer is doing a book sign next week!!” You looked closely at the information and remembered that that exact day, it was your day off, so you could go with someone.
“You like the God of Mischief?” Shay asked amused, the tone of her voice indicating she knew something you didn’t, but right now you were so happy you could combust.
“I adore him! He is my favorite writer. Would you come with me? Please?” You asked her with pleading eyes and she couldn’t say no. This is going to be fun, Shay thought to herself.
“I’ll take the bags to my house, since we’ll be getting ready together, so don’t worry about them. Have a good afternoon, hoe.” You blowed Shay a kiss and watched her as she left, your mind suddenly wandered, thinking about the conversation you had about Loki and you.
You were piling the new arrivals on the floor and started placing the books on the shelves, when an idea popped. You needed to have a few drinks and meet someone new, you hadn’t had sex since Eric, so maybe that’s what you needed to clear your mind. It was impossible you liked Loki, even more impossible him liking you. Right?
Once your shift was over, you headed straight to The Black Moon, totally forgetting about the movie night with Loki. You had only one thing in mind, get wasted and fuck someone new tonight. That’s all you wanted and needed. Five hours later, you were stumbling in your apartment with a guy named Sam next to you, totally oblivious to the fact that Loki was still awake, sick worried because he thought something happened to you, since you weren’t picking up your phone or answering his text messages.
You spent almost all the night awake with Sam, but after you were done, he left. The sunlight was strong, so you assumed it was pretty late. You stood up and went straight to the bathroom, taking a hot shower and your body craving for coffee. You frowned when you walked towards the kitchen, Loki was sitting in his usual spot with his book, his headphones plugged in and a cup of coffee on his hand, no coffee for you.
“Hey there.” You said in a loud tone trying to get him to hear you. He looked up from his book and glared at you, his stone cold attitude you haven’t seen in months, back. He unplugged one earphone and spoke in a harsh tone.
“Would you look at that? You are alive.” He spat. If looks could kill, you would be dead right now.
“What’s wrong?” You frowned confused, not sure what was going on.
“Well, what should I begin with? Uhm maybe the fact that you stood me up last night and never said anything? Or maybe the fact that you brought someone here and were so fucking loud I couldn’t sleep? Or maybe you not fucking telling me you were out, so I didn’t have to be worried the whole fucking night because you didn’t answer your phone?” He stood up and stared at you coldly.
“I hope I was clear enough, Y/n.” He was about to leave when you reached for his hand and stopped him. You knew that what you did was fucked up, and if you were being honest with yourself, it didn’t help you clear your mind at all.
“I’m so sorry, Loki. I had a hard day at work and I totally forgot. I’m so sorry.” You said with pleading eyes. He hesitated, but finally he nodded.
“It’s okay, next time, please inform me or someone else. I can’t add my worry for you to my already long ass list of stressful stuff.” He squeezed your hand and pulled you to him, embracing you in his arms. You breathed in his cinnamon and lavender scent and a shiver ran down your spine, making you pull off abruptly.
“I need to get back to work. I have a lot of reading to do and all that stuff book editors do.” He smiled at you sweetly, but it never reached his eyes.
“Yeah, I have to die peacefully in my bed to pass this hangover.” You said to him, his back already facing you.
“What the fuck is going on with you, Y/n?” You asked yourself when you felt your heart pounding loudly on your chest, the scent of Loki still embracing your senses.
Last chapter : Loki accepted to spy on Y/N and seduce her in order to help kill her. He just asked Y/N to escort him to his room …
Summary : Y/N is the chief of Bucky’s gang, the Cassidys. While she’s in a peaceful relationship with him, the young woman has to deal with tough guys. What she isn’t expecting is that Loki, a mysterious member of an enemy gang, infiltrates her crew to help kill her …
In another world, maybe, Y/N would have said no.
But her relationship with Bucky had been flat from the start. Of course, her lover was kind, as well as she was. However, it wasn’t enough to keep her feelings intact. The man standing in front of her was offering an escape, something thrilling. He was the devil reaching for her hand.
Obviously, Loki thought Y/N would reject his arrogant proposition. Instead, the young woman tilted her head,
‘’Well, I could do that.’’
Thus, Y/N found herself guiding her new client through the corridors to his room. As they walked, she coud feel his piercing eyes openly checking her out. Am I really doing that ?
‘’It’s this one.’’ she stopped in front of the door and waited for her client to open it. Her eyes fixed on the red wood, Y/N struggled not to look at him. If you do, you’re fucked. The temperature of Loki’s body affected hers, not to mention his breath was softly crashing on the skin of her neck. ‘’My, my …’’ he sighed, taking a look at the keys in his hand, ‘’Your boyfriend is quite possessive …’’ with these words, Loki leaned over, bringing their bodies even closer. The key turned into the lock and Y/N’s eyes flitted towards her client, heart pounding into her chest. It wasn’t like her, to be like this, so vulnerable and timid.
Gently, Loki placed his hands on her hips, beckoning her to turn around. The simple touch set fire to her core. Loki’s fingers grabbed the fabric of Y/N’s shirt. Oh god. Tugging at it, he allowed his hand to run down her waist. Wringing out the fabric again, his fingertips glided under the thin piece of cloth she was wearing. Judging by the deepening of her breathing and her parting lips, he was fairly certain she wouldn’t reject him. The contact of his skin against hers indeed enticed her loins and Y/N’s heartbeat increased from one second to another. She wanted more. She wanted him, the arrogant stranger she’d just met.
Her phone chose that specific moment to ring loudly. All of a sudden, Y/N broke free from the light grip of Loki’s hands and frantically searched into her pockets. ‘’I … have to take this …’’ she managed, short of breath. ‘’Yes ? Oh Jane ! Yes … Absolutely … Yeah. I’ll be over in five minutes.’’ Loki stood still, his arms crossed on his chest as his green emerald stared at her. Y/N gave him a small sympathetic smile, while he looked positively murderous. It wasn’t going to be easy.
‘’I gotta go.’’ Y/N offered him an apologetic gaze, but before she was able to even step away, his strong hand pulled her back towards him. Oh. Silence fell over the corridor and the young woman gazed at Loki. They were face to face, looking into each other’s eyes. And those eyes, those lips, the way he looked at her, everything became curiously different. There was a physical chemistry between them. Loki himself took a second to come back to his senses. What was she doing to him ?
‘’Will you … Will you come back ?’’
Y/N blinked in confusion. She’d felt it too. But how could she do that to Bucky ? No … ‘’I-it … It was a mistake.’’ She stuttered.
Suddenly, Loki seemed lost. No ? All amusement had ceased, replaced by insufferable frustration. ‘’No ?’’ Loki repeated in disbelief, ‘’No.’’ she quickly confirmed, holding his gaze as long as she could. Baffled at first, Loki shook his head and chuckled, if you could call the expulsion of air from his mouth a ‘chuckle’. ‘’Give me a strong valid reason to give up.’’ Y/N’s eyes widened, ‘’Well, my possessive boyfriend for example ?’’ a grin spread across his lips, his face melting into an irresistible scrunched up set of eyebrows, ‘’I said, a valid reason.’’ Unbelievable. Y/N was furious. ‘’I love him.’’ she argued, ‘’Do you ?’’ Her words didn’t keep Loki from stepping closer. His face was now only a few inches from hers. The growing desire she felt silenced the objections she had in mind and Y/N found it impossible to speak. The hoarse tone of Loki’s voice came purring against the warm nape of her neck,‘’You want this, Y/N. You came here for more than that …’’
Once more, Y/N escaped his grip. How dared he ? She looked at him one last time before running away. From the distance, she heard his door slamming harshly. You didn’t cheat Y/N, you’re fine. Everything is fine.
Y/N welcomed a few new clients, Loki not leaving her thoughts. What’s wrong with this man ?
A pair of arms wrapping around her waist startled her. Loki ? ‘’Hey honey,’’ Bucky’s soothing voice murmured. ‘’How was your day ?’’ Oh my, if only he knew. ‘’Oh ! Well … Tough clients …’’ she chuckled uncomfortably. Concerned, her lover trailed kisses against her neck, ‘’I can handle him if you …’’ Suddenly, it all came back to her mind. Him, hm let’s talk about that … ‘’What was it, this afternoon, the scene you made in front of the client, this client ?’’ Bucky released his grip, ‘’Oh come on Y/N, he was more interested in your breasts than his own room.’’ maybe. However, Bucky’s reaction somehow angered her. ‘’No !’’ she lied, not even regretting it, ‘’I mean, he wasn’t very talkative that’s all. And … Even if it was true, I’m not a child, I can handle this all-by-myself.’’ she glared at him, insisting on the words. His lack of reaction made her lose patience. ‘’Are you listening to me ? Bucky, you can’t act like this in front of my clients, I’m not an object, I’m not a child, do you understand that ?’’ he rolled his eyes, ‘’Never said you were …’’ Oh well, enough, ‘’I’m not yours.’’ She finally spat.
Bucky’s face lost its composure. A frown appeared on his forehead. There was something else. ‘’What do you mean, not mine ?’’ the tone of his voice sounded wounded, confused. A dull pain centered in Y/N’s chest. She hated to see him like this, but it wasn’t the first time she didn’t know what to think about their relationship anymore. Bucky had always thought of her as the woman of his life, and for her part, Y/N had a hard time picturing a future by his side. She wanted passion, true passion. After a moment of hesitation, she took a deep breath, ’’I don’t know. It’s … Us. I’m not sure I can still do this.’’ In the light’s glow, Y/N saw evidence of a tear stain on his cheek and raised her hand to wipe its trail. Bucky pushed it away and stormed out of the room. Fuck …
The ring he’d kept in his pocket for a month was feeling quite heavy now.
While Y/N had a hard time knowing what she wanted, Loki struggled with his own mind. Lying on his bed under the rafters, frustration tightening his jaw, the young man jumped on his feet and started pacing nervously into the tiny room. Another fives seconds and he would have kissed her. He wouldn’t have thought about it. Now, he wasn’t sure anymore.
Loki’s eyes laid on his reflection in a mirror hanging on the opposite wall. Contemplating what he’d become under the pale light, he didn’t enjoy what he saw. Could he still help his gang kill this young woman ? Her obvious innocence and distress had touched his heart, this cold heart he had always thought was frozen. The arousing combination of her scent had troubled his mind for good. It had curled around him, intoxicating and impossibly alluring. ‘’What am I doing …’’ he brushed his long fingers through his dark hair for the umpteenth time as to chase the rumbling thoughts. His head was filled with conflicted emotions. Doubt, defiance, longing … The last one struck a chord in him. It was the first time he’d felt something, a feeling, it was real.
His decision was pure instinct. Loki reached for the blade he’d been keeping in his pocket in order to kidnap his victim and stared at it for a moment. ’’Can’t do that …’’ his gaze went to a closet in the corner of the room. He opened its door and looked for a place to hide his weapon. There, in this drawer, she would never know it was his. Loki cautiously locked the door and closed his eyes. He was a lot of things, but Y/N’s killer wouldn’t be one of them. Determined to abort his mission, he grabbed his phone and started a message.
I changed my mind. I won’t kill her.
He was about to send it, but it never happened. A brisk knock on the door interrupted his typing.
