Kittens POV

I stop dead in my tracks, digging in my bare heels as best as I can. "Loki, please no! you can't be serious?" Loki continues to drag me out of his quarters, I fall to my kneel in an attempt to stop him. My knees hit the hard marble and I wince, but Loki stops and turns to look at me, his eyes are wide with anger, I hold onto the door frame, I'm suddenly very aware that this is the first time I've left the confinement of Loki's quarters.

He stares down at me "get up!" I don't move "Do not embarrass yourself kitten and worse me..." I stand slowly on shaky legs using the frame for support.

"Will you follow me quietly?" he raises his eyebrow. I open my mouth to answer but before I can, Loki throws me over his shoulder "too slow..." He barks at me and plants a vicious slap across my ass.

"put me down!! I'll walk!" He ignores me and remains silent as he makes his way down a series of corridors, I notice we walk past the courts, where my time with Loki began. Loki stops and plants me on my feet at the top of a set of stairs "I trust we can make it down these without a fight pet?"

I nod "yes" he takes me by the top of my arm and we make our way down the stone steps. This part of the palace is all stone and much colder than the upper levels. When we reach the bottom of the steps, Loki speaks to one of the guards.

Loki's POV

The guard looks confused to see us "My Lord, may I be of assistance?"

"I need a cell for the night."

The guard frowns at me "My Lord?" he asks, questioningly

"This girl" I point at kitten "she needs to see the error of her ways, so I'll tell you again, I need a cell..."

"of course, follow me"

I follow him but kitten doesn't move, I turn to her

"we've been through this, do not embarrass me..."

She reluctantly follows, I keep a tight grip on her arm. When we reach a cell, right at the end of the dungeon, the guard comes to a stop. "I'll leave you to it my Lord.. miss" he tips his hat at kitten.

I easy her up the 2 small steps to the cell and follow her inside, she looks around, she looks so scared, so fragile. I know that this end of the dungeon is the safer, quieter end, she of course, doesn't. This is where we keep the female prisoners.

"Sit" I tell her, pointing to a small, low, leather stool. She does immediately, I offer her a smile.

I kneel, so that I meet her eyes, hold her gaze and tuck a loose strand of hair behind her ear. She's quietly sobbing.

"My darling, listen to what I have to say and keep your mouth shut" I offer her a handkerchief from my pocket which she accepts and nods her head.

"I cannot begin to express how disappointed I am with you. You ignored my rules, even if you claim it was innocent" I stand and start to pace "I simply cannot allow a disobedient little girl to attend events with me, such as the one I had planned for this evening" she sobs harder "I will not be shown up by a servant! I believe a night down here will show you just how kind I have been to you so far, and you'll appreciate me SO much more by first light. Do you understand why I'm doing this pet?" I stop and look at her, she doesn't answer until I give her permission

She takes a deep breath "Yes Sir"

"The guard will bring you some blankets, call him if and only if, you really need him"

I turn and leave her cell, she quickly stands and follows me to the door "I really am sorry Loki"

Dam, why does she have to look at me like that??

"I know" the cell door locks as soon as I close it "sleep well" I smirk.

I hear her cry as I walk away and it kills me, why does she have this effect on me??

I stop and speak with the guard, explaining to him that no harm is to come to her and that only I shall visit her. He's told to keep a listen out for her calls and with that I climb the stone steps and leave.

Kitten's POV

I can't believe he left me! I feel completely alone and exposed.

I sit on the stool again and sob into Loki's handkerchief, it smells like him, it's something of a comfort to me. I look around this dingy cell, every noise makes me jump.

The guard arrives with some blankets and a pillow, he offers me a sympathetic smile "don't worry miss, no harm will come to you, I give you my word!" I thank him with a smile.

"Can I get you anything else miss?"

I hesitate "May I, um, have some milk?"

He offers me another smile "of course miss, shall I have it warmed for you?"

I nod and he leaves. His kindness makes me feel alittle happier.

I fashion myself a bed using the blankets and pull the stool closer in an attempt to hide behind it. I know I'm failing, but it makes me feel safer. I lay my head on the pillow and curl up as best as I can. It's freezing down here, I pull the pillow closer. I miss Loki! I hate him in this moment, but I miss him, I crave him.

The guard return with a tray, he even knocks before he enters.

"Here you go miss" he puts the mug down on top of the stool "I've brought you alittle something sweet too" he puts 2 biscuits next to my drink

I offer him a weak smile

"Your not supposed to interact with me, are you?" he asks

I shake my head

"I though as much, I won't get you into trouble. Let me tell you this, I've never seen Loki so determined to keep a servant before, in the past, he's kicked them to the curb , you must be special" I lift my head

"I'll be right outside your door, all night"

"Hey..." I call after him "Thanks"
