For a Good Time, Call Loki: The Loki Adventures, #3

By Dawn Blair

This is the third novella in The Loki Adventures series.

 

He is Loki, Norse god of mischief, and he's been paroled to earth with the mission of sending transdimensional beings back to their home realms in order to save humanity.

His life isn't cushy, so it's a good thing he's rich.

Still, he has his problems. His new car isn't perfect. He discovers there are nasty little gnomes living in traffic lights. His finds out his personal assistant is more than he claims to be, possibly an embezzler. 

If that weren't enough, his son, who doesn't know about the conditions of Loki's parole, arrives in town. How is Loki supposed to entertain with limited powers? Of course, Heimdall accuses him of trying to be Father of the Year. 

All he wants is an ordinary call with a normal case; you know, find the transdimensional, send it home, and collect a Valkyrie hair as his reward. 

But no, someone doesn't want it to be that simple.

Now, it's up to Loki to show them a good time.

Dawn Blair

Come take an adventure with your multi-dimensional, time-traveling tour guide, Dawn Blair. Telling stories of noble hearts and fantastic places, Dawn enjoys creating stories full of action, fantasy, quests, and maybe a touch of technology.  For as long as she can remember, she's been telling stories, starting with tales of cats and dogs. No one ever dared to ask her to "imagine" something because it would send her creativity spinning. One fateful day, her grandmother, certainly tired of listening to the endless prater, sat Dawn down at a typewriter and told her to write the story out.  Growing up on a ranch in rural Nevada, she had plenty of time and space to let her imagination roam free. When she wasn't out playing or working in the alfalfa fields or swimming at the pool, she was at home typing away at her novels.  Dawn moved to Idaho and, after a second fateful day where an instructor taught her to see as an artist, her life expanded to include other creative endeavors: painting, illustrating, animating, and photography in addition to writing. They all became mediums for the way she could share stories. Soon, she had won numerous awards for writing, painting, and photography, as well as gaining readers and collectors worldwide. All while raising her two fantastic boys as a single mom.  Dawn decided to start recording audiobooks. Knowing nothing about the process, she began learning and transformed a simple home setup into a home studio, a sequence marked by a third fateful day in her life when she decided to quit dabbling and get serious. Dawn aims for improving her audio with each narrative tale she completes. Still in Idaho, Dawn spends every moment she can exploring strange worlds, seeking out brave lives and magical civilizations. She wants to touch your life with magic, open your mind, and make sure you will never be the same again. Let her show you the sights. Let's be on our way, shall we?

AUTHOR’S NOTE:

This is the third book in the series.

When I started writing, they were supposed to be quick and simple one shot adventures. Loki had other plans. As such, it is a continuing story (at the moment).

Please consult my book list for reading order before continuing with this one, otherwise you’ll be lost. Neither one of us wants that.

Thank you!

CHAPTER 1

Damn. Doesn’t the higher power in the universe realize that gods of Asgard are supposed to be smarter than the humans of Midgard? Or is it just my erroneous belief?

I feel as if I have forgotten myself. Separated from something important I should be remembering, as if this is a warning. What psychological manipulation played upon me has made me feel one cheeseburger short of a Happy Meal?

I, Loki of Asgard, enjoy messing with people’s minds. It’s what I do. I’d apologize for it, but we both know I wouldn’t be sincere. I’d also say that I hate it when someone tries to make a mockery of me, but we know that would also be a lie. I do enjoy the game.

Right now, my objective is to make it from my hotel room to the airport to save someone who looks quite a bit like me. Or, I should say, that I look quite a bit like him. Just enough to not quite be right.

I open the stairwell’s pale gray door which exits to the ground floor of the hotel and discover Jason leaning against the beige wall with a smirk on his lips and the keys to my new car dangling from his tidy fingers. Upon seeing my personal assistant waiting for me, I realize I have made a terrible blunder.

I’ve grown so accustomed to this human form
