Kayla's POV
I had limped to the bath chambers, his marble bath seemingly unused and smelling of too much cedar oil. I let the overly hot water wash over me as I scratched my skin , removing the feeling of him. The cedar oil masked his scent as I made my skin red and raw from my scrubbing. The flash back coming back over and over . The bedroom door opened distantly, sending me underwater to hide.
The footstep were light, they seemed to be searching. I shook as I draped a robe over me. "Raphael, I will not wait any longer. I am leaving for the Bifrost now." The voice boomed through the door. Who ever it was , their anger had me cowering. The door opened , releasing the steam from my bath. "If you are bare, you better -" The man stopped before the bath. Seeing me as I gripped Raphael's dagger he had left on the counter. "Stay back! I will not be used by your filthy race, nor you or Raphael shall have me. " I screamed as I held the dagger to my throat. The blade stung as it touched me. Covered in some red liquid that felt like fire I would use it on me or him. I cared not. Knowing my death would anger Raphael and the man's would anger Asgard. "Step closer and I will take my life. Raphael will be not be happy." The man wore curved horns on his helm, his hand out in front of him as he stepped away. His armor gleamed brightly as he pressed against the door. "Are you a ghost? To haunt me?" His voice echoed through the room. "I am alive , I want to go to Earth. Take me and I will spare you." The man looked as if he had choked. "How can this be? I watched you die. " I came closer, holding the dagger toward his heart. " Shut up! If Raphael hears you he will find me. " The man began to laughing, loud and hearty. I jumped backward, scared of what was going through his head. The man embraced me, squishing me against him as he chuckled. I screamed as the dagger fell out of my hand. I pitifully beat my fists against his chest."Let me down you mindless brute! What is wrong with you people?! You bipolar oafs!" I yelled as he kissed my hair and cheeks. The man curled me into his arms and proceeded to walk me out of the room, me kicking and screaming. "Calm down or I'll carry you like harvest. " I pushed him in the nook of his elbow. I was dropped unceremoniously onto my backside. "Why did you do that?" He shrugged and picked me up , throwing me over his shoulder. I began to protest again but he swiftly smacked my ass. "Hush , before I gag you. Never mind, please yell. I would enjoy that. " I quieted , knowing drawing attention would not benefit me. The guards nodded the man off, not caring I was strung over the man like prized hunt. The man turned a corner and entered a massive room before unloading me onto a bed. I bounced a few times before I landed, the wind getting knocked from my lungs. I wheezed before standing on my knees and throwing a pillow at the man. " I am a lady you swine! What is with everyone acting like cavemen? Me want! I smash! " I yelled before the man grabbed my face and kissed me. His lips were perfect, sweet and full, I gasped as his tongue washed over my lower lip. "Gods, I have missed you." His hand cupped my chin as he kissed and nibbled my lips. It was as he was tasting me, experiencing me. His hands wound in my hair, tilting my head back as he drank his fill. " Please may I touch you? I promise I will not hurt you." Memories of Raphael ruined the beautiful kiss. I jerked back, pulling from the man. "I am not yours. I believe I am claimed already. " The man's eyes flickered ten different emotions before settling on despair. "Who? Do I know this man?" I knew from the kiss the man had knew me. So no longer threatened I relaxed. "Truthfully, I don't even know him. I must have hit my head because I can't remember much of anything since I woke." The man reached out, cradling my cheek. " You will." Pain exploded inside my head. Colors flickered as it spread through me. Searing my veins. I blacked out , giving in to the darkness.
I woke tangled in a robe, smelling like wood chips that was used in animal cages. My head pounding and overly tender in unspeakable places. I felt around for my glasses, angry they had been pulled from my face. A thin arm stopped me, settling it back to my chest. "Rest, please." Loki kneeled next to the bed, watching me intently. I jerked my arm back , furious he had the gull to touch me. " Leave!" I screamed as I covered my body. He dare hurt me and think it's okay to touch me? He kept his hands to himself, handing me my glasses. Waking slowly , it took all but a minute to remember what had transgressed . Raphael,Thor, Frigga....Loki.. I swung my hand across his face. "Damn you and damn your eyes. You are a monster." I quaked in anger. Tears running down my face as memories assaulted me. Loki looked at me as though I had stabbed him, almost making me wish I had. "Please , let me explain." I stood , not caring the robe was ripped and I was bare. "Take me to earth. Do not make me go to Frigga. " He placed his hands on my shoulders. I smacked at him, angry he would even try. "You let Raphael rape me, you hit me , killed me, degraded me, held me hostage. Explain why I should stay." Loki's face sobered. Anger waving through him close to audibly. "He touched you?" I wasn't in the mood for his tricks or games. "Provide me with clothes so I may leave this wretched place. " Loki stormed off to find me clothes.
The under cloth he brought me matched his own, dark green with golden laces and the skirt had many layers but I could not have cared less . I came out of the bathroom, honestly surprised he had let me dress by myself. " To Earth, please." I stated as he grabbed my hand. I protested as he drug me through the great halls of the palace. We stopped at a huge room with a table set with a feast big enough to feed a town. A grey haired man sat at the end with Frigga and Thor. They smiled as I came in , but were confused as they noticed Loki . Thor stood and pulled me aside and away from Loki who scowled . "You said you didn't know him. " I threw a angered glance at Loki, "He must have mind swiped me because I do. Now I must speak with Frigga ." The man at the end of the table stood and held a hand out to me. "Welcome midgardian, how are my sons seeing to you?" Odin? Odin allfather? I gaped at him. "That's why I am here your Highness. To speak with you. " The large and towering man walked toward me and pulled me aside. "Speak your mind my lady. Have they wronged you?" I shook my head before bowing. "I mean no disrespect I am human so if I offend you, please blame earth's customs. first and foremost I have been hostage on this god forsaken hell hole for months, everyone here is nuts, Raphael is a rapist liar, Loki kidnapped me , Thor saw me naked, Loki tried to kill me and I have been brainwashed, knocked out, wounded and molested . I want off this plane and back on earth. I will not speak of this place, nor will I seek answers. " Odin watched me wearily, waiting politely to see if I was through. Allfather closed the distance between us and bowed formally to me before embracing me. "please accept my apology my lady. I will seek justice for you. As for your virtues , you may think of the punishments." Odin slammed the long golden staff he held into the floor, it ringing loudly. "Thor , Loki, Raphael and Heimdall to the addressing room." I followed him unknowing my fate.
I was sat next to Odin as the men lined before us. "Do you know this woman?" All men nodded their heads."Thor , you are hear merely as input, though I expect you to find a equal for seeing this woman bare." Thor approached me , pulling a necklace from his pocket. "As long as you have this, you will never fall ill or have misfortune. Luck will be by your side. " I lightly grasped the necklace before hugging Thor. "Loki Laufeyson did you do all this mortal accused you of?" Loki met my eyes before quickly looking away. "Yes, father. " Odin grabbed Loki's collar , bringing him inches from his face. "You will beg this woman forgiveness and do all she asks. If she wants severe punishment , she shall have it. You robbed her." Loki nodded before stepping back. "Raphael Dorgenson , did you rape this woman?" Raphael shook his head. The man named Heimdall made a grunt noise, Odin grew angry. "You dare lie? " Thor leaned over, "Heimdall sees everything. He knows of what you say. Raphael is a fool for trying to lie." Heimdall waved his hand through the air , causing it to distort and images began to flicker through . I heard everything through different ears, the horrors relived. Loki snarled deeply, hands curled around his dagger. "Loki do you wish to explain your barbaric behavior? You did the same to the woman." Odin glanced at Heimdall , the images vanishing. "She is mine, was mine, Raphael has no right to her flesh. " Thor's arm circled me . "Did you wish to let Loki punish Raphael?" Odin asked as Raphael's arms were restrained and he was knocked to his knees. I shook my head. I was handed a dagger, Thor told me to recite words. "Raphael Dorgenson you have violated Asgardian laws, you have lied to your king, forced yourself on a woman. Odin allfather has witnessed your transgressions. You have been sentenced to death by the hand of the woman you raped. Let it be known your ancestors will not smile down on you, and you have dishonored your family. " Raphael's head bowed. "I strip you of your last name, and your title." I slammed the dagger to the hilt in the back of his neck. He fell before my blade and sank into his own puddle of blood. He gasped as he stared up at me, before his last breath he spat blood on my face. I watched unblinking. Odin stared at me, waiting I guess for me to crumble but I stood still. Waiting for the guilt,maybe. Thor stood and pulled me to the bath chambers . " My lady are you okay?" I couldn't answer, the taste of Raphael's blood and death stuck my tongue to the roof of my mouth. Thor pour water over me and my clothes, washing the blood off. Loki stood in the doorway. Watching me, us. "May I have a moment alone before she leaves?" Thor pushed me behind him, ignoring his brother's plea. " You are no better than Raphael."
