At his outburst her face flushed hot at first, indeed, in a kneejerk reaction to hearing such words out of his mouth with her standing right there.
And then, in an instant, too soon for it even to be commented on, the color vanished in favor of her skin turning white-pale instead. The tension and foreboding threatening to just about literally drain the life out of her. The worse he reacted the harder it was for her to bear, the greater and greater her apprehension grew. She felt sick to her stomach.
For if this was how Loki reacted at hearing he was to wed a Jotun, how would he feel at hearing he actually was one?
"Oh how I wish at times like these, we could have simply raised you knowing the truth."
This unhappy wish falls from her mouth before she can help it, a rushed and ardently breathless murmur.
