Never Sleep Alone
I guess I’ll slowly start moving some fics over here in order to finish. I should have posted this in October but I figure a little scary tale won’t hurt for the month of holiday cheer - and let’s be real - this year has been more of a horror story than anything else, right?
So without further ado, I present to you a story of vampires and grudges. Jane Foster, Thor and Scott Lang all make appearances in this one.
Dark! Loki x Black Female Reader - anyone can read though! I was watching Queen of the Damned and got inspired.
Notes: 18+, there will be biting, non-con, a few murders here and there - I say this so casually, ha. There are mentions of past domestic violence but only a few and not in detail. The creep factor is a little high so watch out for that.
Summary | New life in a new city, you’re prepared to live life to the fullest. But your new job isn’t exactly what you thought it would be. Especially when you’ve caught the attention of a vampire who knows more about your job than you do. And your job goes against everything he stands for.
Your boss broke your concentration, a myriad of books over your desk while you looked up from your black-rimmed glasses sheepishly. This was your first job that didn’t involve a uniform or dealing with rude customers and you couldn’t get enough of all the reading it entailed. Asset curation wasn’t exactly the career that you had planned on, but the interview had gone extremely well, even if Dr. Tivan was a little eccentric for your tastes.
“I won’t,” you promised, closing the large book in front of you, dust sprinkling across your desk.
“It was more of a request. Bit weird out here once dusk hits. The night is even worse.”
Dr. Tivan hovered in the doorway for a moment, his white-blond hair standing up on end while he fumbled in his pant pockets. He raised his eyebrows in triumphant surprise, tossing a small set of keys on your already cluttered desk.
“To lock up. Yours to keep. I’ll expect those reports you’re researching by next week. Sound good?”
“Of course, Dr. Tivan.” You weren’t going to let him down. There were donors with deep pockets that were counting on your research to curate a particular find from Athens that Tivan had his eye on. It felt nice to be needed.
When you looked back up from your books, he was gone, the sound of his shoes squeaking against the linoleum.
