Regret

"Enter" he commanded.

Loki entered with a mischievous smile on his face.

"Thor I apologize for that.. I'm sorry I shouldn't have done it but I never thought that you would consider such silly matters and be so angry" Loki said calmly.

SILLY!!!!??

Making one stand naked is silly for Loki?

He's going to kill his brother for saying that.

But no.

He had plans.

Remember?

And he had to be calm.

"Well well...look who it is..It is not always that a deer enters into the lion's den all by its own now is it?"

Thor's last words were dark that it sent chill to Loki's spine.

It always happened. Loki would anger his brother.

And his brother would beat him. And he would take the beatings. Why? Because he did not have the damn strength to fight against his brother and win.

But Loki always knew not to anger his brother.. he had never thought that his simple prank would end up in angering Thor so much.

And when Thor was angry, the things did not go straight.

And he had to get out of Thor's room. Now.

He reached to the door knob only to by turned around by Thor and pinned to the wall.

Oh how helpless would he be looking...Loki thought.

Thor held his hands up and fastened them with ropes. He ripped off Loki's tunic into pieces and held Loki's chin in a tight grasp. Loki looked him up with wide eyes.

He dug his fingers untill Loki screamed. He took that as an inviting advantage to stuff some cloth into his mouth as a gag.

And he put some sort of bracelet into Loki's hands.

Loki hated this. Hands being bound, body hanging in the air..how vulnerable would he be..

The warm afternoon air brushing on Loki's chest and back..the thought of the beatings and pain itself made fat tears stuff up the corner of Loki's eyes.

Now why did these tears come up? Being held by Thor's mercy was not enough that these tears came up to make him even the more helpless?

"Well brother I haven't started anything..and you already are crying like a child?" Thor amused and chuckled.

"Hmm.. I don't like seeing you in tears and even you know this Loki. So let's come to the point. You insulted me in front of my girlfriend and so you are going to be punished for that. By me. You did a mistake and I'm gonna punish you. Well it's not my fault that you did a mistake so I should punish you. Shouldn't I?" Thor asked

Loki looked into Thor's eyes. Frozen. Tears flowing down his cheeks freely as if Loki had given them a full permission to flow.

"Shouldn't I?!!?" Thor growled like a beast.

Loki shivered and nodded with his tears.

"Good boy... So here we go. You know what I'm gonna do. I'm going to whip you now. Yes."

Loki hated whipping and Thor knew this very well.

Loki started sobbing and shaking uncontrollably.

Why is it always that he would be beaten? What was he? A whipping boy to Thor so that he can beat Loki whenever he wants?

Would there be any timeline where Loki would be as strong as his brother in physical strength and beat Thor? Maybe just a dream. And dreams never come true. Not for Loki.

He waited there sobbing and crying out to Thor in muffled sounds, waiting for the whippings.
