Seduction? (tag: Loki)
It had taken Sigyn some time to get an idea of what Loki’s schedule might be. Mostly because she couldn’t simply ask. People would wonder if she’d started asking about a known philanderer, they’d want to know why she wanted to know. And she certainly couldn’t tell them.
Any more than she could ask for the other information that she needed to complete her mission. Instead, she’d taken to going to the knitting circles, sitting in the corner, carding wool into knots rather than smooth roving, because she wasn’t really paying attention to what she was doing. Instead, Sigyn was listening to gossip. She really didn’t care who was seeing whom, but she wanted to know how they managed to go about the, um, seeing portion of it. How did that actually work? Fortunately, there was plenty of giggling and poking fun, and she managed to glean a good idea of what went where, even if she did blush quite a lot.
And she remembered exactly why she hated sitting around with the other maidens. But it had been worth it. Or it would be, once she managed to do this. Because then, there was no way Loki could deny that what they were when they were together was spectacular. She was sure of it. She wanted him. She knew he wanted her. He was just being stubborn. So Sigyn was going to show him why that was a mistake.
She’d had to wait until it was fully dark, to make certain she wasn’t seen. Another little tip picked up from her corner-sitting. She’d heard all the ways others had gotten caught, and made sure she didn’t slip up that way. However, it did make it a bit harder to get into, and around, Loki’s home. She couldn’t exactly see in the dark. And she didn’t want to disturb things, because she didn’t want him to know she was there until it was too late.
Which sounded a bit mercenary, but really, she was sure this was the best way. So she quickly disrobed, then hesitated. Was naked the best way? Some of the other maidens had said that men liked to “unwrap the package.” Then again, apparently men simply could not resist bare skin when it was presented. So yes. She would be nude. Yes. Steeling her will against creeping modesty, Sigyn hid her clothing under the bed, then climbed in under the covers. If the others were right, Loki should be back tonight. And Sigyn would be right there waiting for him when he arrived.
This was going to work. This had to work. She loved him.
