13 Chapter 13 Reunited

Katrina's POV

I'm not sure how much time has passed since Killian left me in here alone but I have finally managed to stop crying and have been mentally preparing myself for what is going to happen next. Any moment now he could come in and drag me to a lab and begin experimenting on me, cutting me open and it terrifies me. I don't want to be tortured and cut open. Be in pain, agony but I have to be ready. For I refuse to crumble and lose hope, no matter what he does to me and maybe I will escape and get back home. However as time has gone by, all I can think about is the pain that I will be in and knowing there will be more to come after. Especially if Killian wants me and he might try and violate me too. That thought terrifies me even more.

Taking a breath, I try not to think about it as I move slightly to try and get comfortable as I have been stuck with my back against the wall for a while. The handcuffs have made my magic useless but also have made me feel very week as I have had them on for a while. I tried to get them off but they are too tight and I don't want to hurt my wrists, not when I know there is pain to come. I just hope I can escape and that Tony is ok. He said he was dying but he will be ok, he has to be or I will be stuck here forever. Unless Loki returns and comes after me which I hope he does. Please save me.

I'm about to try and get some sleep, figuring I should rest my body considering amount of pain that I am going to be in when suddenly I hear loads of alarms going off. I hear men running past my cell and what sounds like a lot of commotion in the distance. Someone is attacking Hydra and it brings a smile to my face. It must be Tony, he came for me and he must have brought the Avengers. Oh thank god… but still, I wish Loki were here too.

Then I look down at my chest to look at the pendant underneath my top to try and give me some comfort. But my eyes widen in shock when I see it's glowing a bright green and I pull it out to look at it. It's glowing brightly and then I remember what Loki said. It's laced with his magic so no matter what he could find me… is that why it is glowing? Is he looking for me? Coming after me? He is coming for me. Loki is coming for me and it brings a smile to my face. Please save me Loki and bring me home. I love you.

The door then unbolts and I hide my pendant under my top as Killian comes in. Luckily, he can't see it much thanks to my green top and he is too distracted. Probably by the commotion which is now louder with the door open.

He glares at me, "It seems your brother survived and brought his friends to save you."

I smirk, "I told you they would come for me. I will never be yours."

This makes him mad and he storms over to me. I try to move back but I can't and he grabs me by my throat and pulls me to my feet. But he doesn't remove his hand and just tightens his grip. I wish I could remove his hand but I can't push him away. My hands are handcuffed and the chain isn't long enough for me to reach his arm. I keep trying though but he just tightens his grip and I am struggling to breathe.

"Let me… go…" I croak, trying to breathe.

He chuckles at my struggling, "You are mine Katrina, you are mine!! No one, not your brother or your friends or your beloved god will save you. You are mine now."

I shake my head, struggling to breathe, "I'm not… not… not yours…"

He growls and tightens his grip on my neck and I can barely breathe. I keep struggling against him but I can't breathe. Let me go. Please let me go.

"Can't… breathe…" I whisper, praying he lets me go.

He smirks, "Say you are mine and maybe I will loosen my grip."

Even though I can barely breathe, I refuse to submit to him and I shake my head slightly as I keep trying to breathe. I will never be his no matter what he does to me. Even if he strangles me to the point of death, I won't become his, never.

"I will… never be… never be yours." I whimper, barely able to breathe.

He chuckles, "Stop trying to resist me. You are my girl and your beloved god isn't coming to save you. He doesn't want you. He doesn't love you. So submit to me… become mine! Give in as he isn't coming for you."

I feel tears in my eyes as I am still struggling to breathe and I need to breathe. His grip on my throat hurts and I am whimpering in pain. I'm fighting for breath but I won't give in to Killian, I refuse. However if he doesn't let go soon I'm going to pass out from the lack of oxygen and I can barely breathe as it is. I know Loki is coming for me. Loki is coming for me.

"Become mine." He demands bluntly.

I shake my head, unable to respond as I am still trying to keep breathing and he isn't happy. He tightens his grip even more and I can't breathe. I am choking, gasping for air but I can't get any due to his grip and tears are welling in my eyes. He is strangling me and I can't breathe.

"Get off my girl!!"

In seconds he is punched away from me and I gasp for breath as oxygen returns to my lungs and I take in deep breaths. Grateful to be able to breathe and then I remember the voice I heard and I look up to see Loki standing there. He is dressed in his usual attire and is wearing his armour on top and he looks beyond pissed. I feel a smile on my lips from just seeing him despite the pain in my neck as I keep breathing, taking deep breaths. Loki came for me, he came for me. I have missed him so much and he just saved me, thank god.

Wait… did he call me his girl?

I try not to think about that as I focus on Loki who is watching Killian as he gets to his feet and glares at him.

"You are going to pay for hurting my girl." Loki states, "You should give up while you have the chance."

Killian growls, pulling out a large blade, "She will be mine."

"Not on my watch."

Then they lunge at each other and I watch as Loki easily beats up Killian. Knocking away his blade before beating him to a pulp and I find myself staring at him in awe. He is so hot when he fights. He tosses Killian easily to the ground and he hits his head, knocking him unconscious. Loki takes deep breaths as he calms down, using magic to make his blade vanish.

I take a breath, my throat very sore, "Lo… Loki…"

He turns back to me, "Katrina are you ok?"

In seconds he rushes back over to me and uses his magic to break the cuffs off my wrists. Instantly I feel my magic again and he checks me over before seeing my neck. No doubt its badly bruised and it really does feel sore. It really hurts and stings.

"I'm… I'm ok..." I say but my voice is hoarse.

"You can barely speak, you're not ok."

He puts his arm around me as he puts his free hand just above my neck and I feel his magic on my skin. The stinging pain and the bruises fade and it no longer feels sore. I also find myself able to breathe easier and I'm relieved to be able to breathe and not feel that horrible pain. I notice the necklace has stopped glowing and I look up into Loki's worried eyes. I'm so happy to see him right now. I've missed him so much.

"You have excellent timing." I say with a smile.

He smiles but he is still worried, "Are you alright? Did he do anything else because if he did…"

I give him a look, "You will beat him up again?"

"Don't tempt me." He states, "He was strangling you and he could have killed you. I should have whacked him harder but I'm not sure your brother would approve."

"Oh god Tony, is he ok? Killian said…"

He interrupts me, putting his arms around me, "Relax, he's fine. I healed his wound before we gathered our friends and came after you. He's beating up Hydra along with everyone else while I sneaked in to find you." He puts his hand under my pendant, "Thank god you are still wearing it."

I smile at him, "I couldn't bear to take it off… but how did you know I was in trouble? Did Heimdell tell you?"

He shakes his head as he looks at me puzzled, "Don't you know? You called out to me telepathically."

My eyes widen in shock, "What? How is that even possible? I had those anti magic handcuffs on so I couldn't use my magic and you were in a different realm. I couldn't have…." But I stop myself as I remember the prayer I did.

The prayer where I begged Loki to save me, that I needed him and that I loved him. He heard that and then I notice we are awfully close to each other. His arms around me and our faces so close to each other. We are both staring at each other and he is looking at me with a loving look like he did before when we nearly kissed. Oh my god… he knows I love him.

"Loki what did I…"

However I am interrupted as his lips crash onto mine and he kisses me so passionately that it takes my breath away. I kiss him back, giving into the spark between us as I hold onto him and its intoxicating and intense. It's beyond anything I could imagine. I deepen the kiss, getting lost in the moment and melting into the passion as he puts his hand on my cheek and waist. My hands rest on his cheek and chest as I get lost in the fire but we have to pull apart to breathe at some point. How I want this moment to last forever.

We finally pull apart to breathe and we are both smiling and panting.

"I love you too." He whispers, "Will you court me Katrina? Be my girl?"

I smile, "I'm yours."

Then I lean in and kiss him and he kisses me back, both of us giving into the fire between us as it's so intoxicating. He doesn't complain, deepening the kiss as we get lost in it as I wrap my arms around his neck. However we hear groaning and we pull apart but don't let go off each other as we see Killian is beginning to wake up.

"I'm getting you out of here." Loki states, "I'm sure Tony and our friends have dealt with the rest of Hydra."

I nod, noticing the commotion has quietened down, "Better put him in chains so he can't escape."

Loki smirks, "Let me."

Then we pull apart and I watch him grab Killian by his leg and drag him over to the wall close to me and where the chains are. I move back as he dumps him before putting the handcuffs on his wrists, making sure they are tight so he can't escape. Once he is secure, he turns back to me and puts his arm around me as he escorts me out the cell.

I rest against him, a smile on my face and I am so happy right now. Loki saved me and now finally we are together. I am free and with the man I love. But still… I can't believe he could hear me telepathically from Asgard but I am glad he did. He saved my brother, saved me and now we are together. I love him so much. I don't want to ever be separated from him again but then, I don't know what happened on Asgard yet. But I hope he is staying for a while and that it went ok.

Loki easily escorts me out the warehouse, ready to protect me but the Hydra agents we have gone past have been knocked out. Probably by Loki himself when he was coming after me. However we are still cautious and when we get out outside, we see loads of Hydra agents knocked out and being arrested by Shield. Handcuffing them and dragging them into the back of cars and jets and some go past us to begin getting the ones inside. I see our friends are all dressed in their Avengers suits and my brother is with them, next to his suit that he has stepped out off. He looks so worried and I'm so relieved that he is ok.

We go over to them, avoiding the Hydra agents on the ground and then they see us. All of them sign in relief at the sight of me and Tony looks so happy to see me. He runs over to me and I pull away from Loki before he pulls me into a hug. I hug him back, a smile on my face as our friends begin coming over to us along with Tony's suit.

"Oh Katrina, I have been so worried." He pulls away and looks at me, "Are you ok? Are you hurt?"

I shake my head, "I'm ok brother… well Killian tried to strangle me but Loki stopped him, beated him to a pump and healed me so I'm ok."

He frowns, "He tried to strangle you?!"

"He wanted me to be his so he tried to make me submit to him." I whisper, making Loki frown, "I refused and he got mad. But Loki stopped him and I'm fine. I am ok brother."

"Only you could be so calm about nearly dying but I'm just glad you are ok." He then looks at Loki, "Thank you."

Loki smiles as he moves closer, putting his arm around me, "No need to thank me Tony. I wanted to save Katrina as much as you did."

I smile as I relax against him and Tony eyes widen before he smiles, "Finally!! You two have been driving me bonkers."

We laugh before our friends thank Loki and hug me before congratulating us, all incredibly pleased that we have got together. But our laughter fades when we hear struggling and we turn to see Kilian being dragged out in chains and towards a heavily guarded jet. He sees me and I cringe as he looks at me menacingly. Loki tightens his grip not liking the look he gave me either. But Killian is pulled out of sight, still yelling and struggling but I try to ignore him.

My brother looks at me, "Get back to the tower and we will sort out everything here. I'm sure you two want to be alone."

I roll my eyes, my cheeks turning red, "Not at all subtle brother."

"Well you know me sis." Tony says, smirking at my reaction, "Just go and we will clean up. Do you need a lift? I'm sure we can spare a jet."

Loki shakes his head, "I will teleport us back. Just make sure that bastard is locked up."

"Believe me I will." Tony says, his voice laced with venom.

My brother then hugs me again before he gets back in his suit and I watch him and our friends go over to help round up Hydra and deal with Killian. While we shine a bright green and in seconds we are gone and before I know it, we appear on the balcony on our floor. We are back at Stark/Avengers Tower but my eyes widen in horror when I see how severely damaged our floor is. It is barely recognisable.

The glass is shattered, covering the floor and everything has been ripped, hanging or burned. Even our rooms have been smashed open and are in tatters. I'm about to step in when Loki pulls me back and I quickly realise why. I'm bare foot and I could easily hurt myself with the amount of glass on the floor.

"Thanks." I whisper, clinging onto him.

"I've got you." He whispers, holding me tightly, "Best be careful."

I nod holding him tighter as I look at our floor, our home, "What are we going to do about our floor? It's a mess and I can't even go inside."

He kisses me on the forehead, "Don't worry, I've got this."

Then I watch in amazement as Loki lifts his hand, shinning green and the floor begins to change. The glass begins rising into the air and speeding towards the window, taking its previous position and the window fixes itself like it was never broken. Not even a crack. The rest of the floor does the same with the sofa mending itself, the tv un shattering, the doors repaired and everything cleaned and unburned. All the other rooms have done the same along with the lift and when Loki stops using his magic, it's like nothing happened. Everything has been returned to the way it was.

He lowers his hand and I detach from Loki and go into our floor, looking around. No longer having to worry about hurting my feet and it's amazing. I can't believe Loki did that so easily and I hope he teaches me how to do that. Loki follows me inside as I look around, a smile on my face and I'm so glad that I am home. That I am ok and that Loki is back. I missed him too much. I was so close to being stuck with Killian that it makes me shiver but I am safe and ok. I'm with Loki, I'm ok.

"You need to teach me how to do that." I say, looking around in awe, "Very impressive."

He shrugs, "It's easy really. I used to cause a lot of mayhem, mischief and if I got caught which was rarely, my mother would make me clean it up."

I smile at this, "Still very cool."

I'm about to ask him about Asgard when my belly rumbles and I forgot that I haven't eaten anything since this morning. Since Killian kidnapped me and locked me in that cell. On top of that my jeans and t-shirt are a mess and frankly I want to shower.

Loki notices and frowns, "Why don't you change and I will make dinner? You need to eat and I imagine you want to get out of those clothes."

I chuckle, "It's like you have read my mind."

He moves closer to me, smiling as he takes my hands, "I guess I know my girl."

"You do, very well." I lean closer to him, "I've missed you."

Then I kiss him on the cheek, teasing him but before I can pull away, he pulls me back and kisses me on the lips. It feels like fireworks are going off as I kiss him back, melting into his embrace but he pulls away quickly before we get carried away.

"I've missed you too my love." He whispers, "More than what words can say."

He then plants a kiss on my cheek before we pull apart and I go to my room to shower and change while Loki makes dinner for us both. I wash my body roughly, relieved to remove the smell of the dirty cell on me as well as clean my cheek to make sure its' Killian free. I'm so glad Loki got to me in time and he saved me before I was experimented on or touched by that monster. It would have been horrible and the idea he nearly did makes me cringe. But I push him out of my mind as I am safe with Loki and now we are together. Finally we are together at last.
