Loki waved his hands and his disappeared. I let out breath.
"Well shit. How the fuck am I supposed to sit at the feast now."
I gathered up a new pair of panties and a bra from my trunk, since I didn't put anything away yet. I grabbed the dress and put it on the bed, plastic intact. I went into the bathroom, which was already filled with lotions and soaps. I got into the shower which was nice and hot. I washed every square inch of me, reluctantly since I didn't want to wash him off me. I got out of the shower and threw a towel on me and my hair. I looked at myself in the mirror. Was this the face of Earth's new queen? I wasn't entirely sure. I threw on my panties and bra and took the towel off my head.
"How to style my hair? Hmm I haven't even looked at the gown yet."
I decided on putting my hair in a loose braid with strands of pearls in it. (I had seen a infomercial about it a few years ago) I blew dry my hair and lay it loose on my head. When I finished I walked out of the bathroom and to the bed.
"The moment of truth." I thought
I unzipped the plastic bag and saw this dress, it was mostly a dark green, with intricate gold stitching around the top and down near the waist, it was strapless with a corset top that laced up. It came with a matching cloak. I didn't take it out of the plastic though so I couldn't see the complete length of it quite yet.
"Well I am going to need help getting into that." I said.
Just as those words left my mouth there was a knock on my door.
"Yes?"
"M'Lady your slave has arrived. Go easy on her."
Slave? I have my own slave now? I was the kings slave for a year and now I have my own personal slave. Interesting concept.
"Come in." I said
This woman, with piercing yellow-ish eyes, long black hair, about 5'9 and about 120lbs walked in, I recognized her, and then it hit me.
"Natasha?"
"Oh my gods, its you!"
I rushed over to her and gave her a hug.
"I thought I would never see you!" We said in unison.
"The king summoned me here all the way from Australia, I didn't know why until this morning, well Abate told me to help you dress, so shall we get to it?"
"Indeed." I said.
I hung the dress on the closet door and took the plastic off. The bottom of the dress fell to the floor, it has the same gold trimming as the top, I could tell it had a train, normal dresses don't flow like that.
"M'Lady, that is one beautiful dress."
"It sure is."
I took it off the hanger and unlaced the corset top. I stepped into it.
"Hmm, it doesn't seem I really need a bra then?" I asked Tash.
"You may be right." she said.
I took off my bra and pulled the dress up the rest of the way, I held the dress in place while Tash pulled the lacing tight. It definitely hugged all my curves.
"My Lady, if I may be so bold. Is it not true that you are in fact mortal and King Loki wishes you to rule by his side as Queen for all time? Would that not be difficult considering you ARE in fact mortal?" Tash said, it totally came from left field.
I grew angry with her. I swung my arm around and slapped her across the face, she fell to the floor. Surprisingly that felt good, I had been beaten for a year by Loki, it kind of felt good to smack someone for once.
I walked over to the dresser and opened up the jewelry box on top. I pulled out a necklace, it was studded with emeralds, with two larger ones in tear drop shapes at the center.
"Perfect, Tash come and help me put this on."
Natasha came towards me and clasped the necklace around my neck. I put my hand to it and looked at myself in the mirror. I took Tash's words to heart honestly. I AM only a mortal. I mustn't think of those things, this is my day.
"I think I am done. How do I look?"
"Amazing my lady. But aren't you missing some makeup?"
"Oh shit you're right."
I decided to put on my own makeup, I took out a palette of eyeshadow, picked out a light green shade and put it on my eyelids. Now I felt complete. I turned away from the mirror and walked to the closet to get the shoes for tonight. They were a pair of gold sandals, they had a note in them.
"I know you don't like heels, but Id love you in these."
I let out a sigh as I slipped into them. Now my look was complete. I threw on my cloak which matched the stitching on my dress, it only fell about waist length, enough just to cover my shoulders. Tash grabbed the door and pushed it open.
"M'Lady you look amazing if I may say."
"Thank you Abate."
"Tash you are excused I can walk myself to the hall."
I was completely nervous, I really didn't know who was going to be there, why they were there, and if I was going to enjoy being the center of attention. Well, all that didn't matter now as I arrived at the hall, I could hear the party was already in full swing.
