Chapter 135

We were all sitting up and working on waking up when Thor started to stir. When he opened his eyes, I gave a sigh of relief.

"Oh, thank god. You had me scared, Sparky. You were out cold and it was taking you so long to wake up, I thought I broke you."

He stretched and I could see he enjoyed the pull at his wounds. "MMMM. Nope. Just deliciously satisfied. I have never felt that before nor come like that."

I snickered. "Yeah, I noticed. And so did everyone else in the Tower. You had lightning raining down everywhere."

He laughed. "I will need to make sure I don't do that in the future. You just took me by surprise with how skilled you are at giving pain. You are the perfect woman, Ariane. You satisfy and complete us like no one ever could."

I smiled. I leaned over and kissed Loki deeply, my tongue dancing with his. 

"I think it's time husband. Are you ok with that?"

"I agree wife. And yes. May I stay and witness?"

"Yes. I'm honored you love me and trust me well enough to watch as I marry two other men."

I kissed him again and sent him a very private thought. 'You are always my core. The one that I love the strongest. My true love.'

He grabbed me and held me tight. "I love you so much, Ariane. And I will spend my life making sure you know that every day." He let me go and kissed me hard. "Now go complete our family."

I nodded and stood. I reached a hand to both Thor and Bucky. They each grabbed a hand and stood next to me as I pulled them up. I looked deep into their eyes.

"Marry me."

I saw their eyes widen and their hands tightened on mine. 

"Right now, Doll?" Bucky's voice was a whisper as if he was scared that I would change my mind if he was too loud. 

"Yes. Right now. Marry me. Be my husbands. Let me be your wife. I don't want any more nights to pass without having all three of my husbands."

I saw them both look at Loki. He smiled and nodded. I knew deep down that they'd always defer to Loki. They knew how important he was to me and did not want to do anything that could put a wedge between us. It made me love them even more. 

Thor let go of my hand. I looked at him. I worried since he hadn't answered. He still stood there, silent. Now all three of us were looking at him. 

I whispered, "Thor? Did I say something wrong? If I did, I'm so sorry." I swallowed. "I'm sorry if I've done anything to make you not want to marry me. I understand if you don't."

Thor's eyes widened and he grabbed me and held me tight. "Nothing would ever make me change my mind about marrying you. I was just stunned at how special and amazing you are. Yes, I want to marry you today."

I smiled. "Well, then you two need to flip a coin and see who goes first."

Thor let me go and gave me a gentle push towards Bucky. "I think you should marry us in order, Angel. Bucky was your second love, and he should be the second one to marry you."

Bucky looked at Thor. "Thank you."

Thor nodded at him and stepped back.

I giggled a little. 

"What's funny, Dollface?"

"I never expected to get married naked."

All three of them dissolved into laughter. 

"Neither did I Doll, but I like the view so I'm not complaining."

I took his hands in mine. "Neither am I. James… I love you so much. Every part of you." I ran my hand down his metal arm. "Not just the physical things. I love the way you make me feel. How you make me smile and laugh. How you're always down for my pranks. You bring joy to my life. And endless love. I'd spent all day of that party with you on my mind, knowing I was falling in love with you, and confused on what was happening. And then you spent that night with me. I knew I could never let you out of my life. I need you in my life. I love you, always. Even if one of us falls, my love will always be there for you. Death can't stop it. I'll always be yours."

Bucky looked at me with his eyes shiny with tears. "I never thought to find someone to love, to have someone love me. I've done so many terrible things. And I knew my arm scared people. But not you. You love it as much as you love the rest of me. Ariane, you're the sun that pulled me out of winter and into spring. You warmed me and made me a better man. Every day I love you more. I'll never stop loving you, even if you leave me. Death won't keep me from being at your side." 

 He took the ring from Loki. I hadn't even noticed when he had taken it off. He gave me a wink. 

Bucky slid the ring on my finger, and I watched as the blue stone lit up. I heard both Loki and Thor take a deep breath. I closed my eyes and fashioned a ring for Bucky. The same twisted metal as Loki's, but in blue and purple. I fashioned it so that it would stay on his metal hand. I wasn't going to change which hand wore the ring. I loved his metal hand and I meant for him to wear the ring on it. I slid the ring on his finger and the purple stone on my ring lit up and so did the blue and purple bands on Bucky's ring. 

I gripped his hands and pulled him down for a kiss. He pulled his hands away and wrapped his arms around me as he kissed me. As we pulled apart, blue and purple power swirled around us and then exploded into sparks above us. I felt a change in my mind, and I knew that now Bucky would be able to share his sensations with the rest of us just like Loki.

Bucky grabbed me and spun me around in a hug. He kissed me again as he set me back on my feet. 

"Now you're my wife. Just like I dreamed of."

I smiled. "Yep. And now you're my husband. Always and forever."

He laughed. "Always and forever, my wife."

He kissed me again and then turned me to Thor. "Go finish our family, Doll. We need him too."

I saw Thor step forward and come towards me as Bucky took his place next to Loki. I saw Loki shake his hand and then he shocked the shit out of me when he gave Bucky a hug. Thor saw my look and turned around and saw Loki hugging Bucky. Thor gave them a huge smile and came to my side.

"My brother is truly back in full. He was always an affectionate person before he found out what he was. It changed him. I am glad to see him back to his original person."

He turned and took my hand and slid the ring off my finger. This would be the last time the ring would leave my finger. He looked into my eyes.
