Peter spoke first: "Watching 'I Love Lucy'?"
"Mmm." Wanda nodded, her voice very soft.
Peter, with remarkable ease, sat down next to Wanda:
"Tell me, what's this show about?"
Wanda's body visibly tensed up, but she forced herself to relax after taking two deep breaths.
She began to recount the old TV series, which she had watched at least twenty times, as naturally as possible.
She can accurately recall the classic scenes from each episode, and even imitate the tone and accent of the characters in the show.
The two chatted about the TV series plot, and the atmosphere became relaxed and warm. Wanda's usually tense face unconsciously put on a smile.
Wanda couldn't remember the last time she felt so simply happy over something so small.
Since her parents died, her world has been filled with hatred and revenge.
After joining the Avengers, she always acted only with Pietro, remaining on the fringes of the organization like an outsider.
Only in Peter's presence could she feel relaxed like never before.
This man always seemed to be able to see through her tough exterior to her vulnerability and insecurity.
“Peter.”
Finally, Wanda suddenly spoke up, interrupting the canned laughter on the television.
"Hmm?" Peter turned his head and looked at her.
Moonlight streamed through the window and fell on her face, clearly reflecting Peter's image in her beautiful eyes.
I think I've... fallen for you.
Peter just looked at her without saying a word.
Wanda gradually forgot to breathe, her mind went blank, and even her face turned pale. She lowered her head and whispered as if mocking herself:
"I'm sorry, did I... cause you any trouble? Just pretend I didn't say anything."
As she spoke, she got up and tried to leave the room.
But the next second, her wrist was grabbed by a warm, large hand.
Peter pulled her back into his arms with a little effort.
"I'm the one who should be saying sorry."
Peter looked down at the petite figure in his arms, his voice tinged with apology.
"I should have come to find you a long time ago."
After saying that, he lowered his head and kissed Wanda's still slightly trembling lips...
Chapter 433 Asgard's Plea for Help
Wanda's body stiffened for a moment, then relaxed, and she began to awkwardly and clumsily respond to Peter's kiss.
A warm tear slid down her cheek.
Those were tears of joy.
From today onwards, she has a new family.
……
Just as Peter and Wanda's relationship was rapidly heating up
The next room.
The praying mantis was sitting cross-legged on the bed, its two antennae on the top of its head trembling irregularly.
She closed her eyes, a smile on her face that seemed completely out of place with her innocent appearance.
At this moment, she was listening with great interest to the two intertwined, intense emotional fluctuations filled with joy and love coming from the next room.
"Oh...oh! The feeling is so intense!"
"Is this... what it feels like to be in love?"
"This is... absolutely wonderful!"
As she experienced it, she uttered a sigh that seemed to have no meaning.
Suddenly, the emotional turmoil next door intensified, and became even more...private.
Two suspicious blushes appeared on the mantis woman's cheeks, and the antennae on her head trembled even more violently.
But... it seems Wanda beat her to it.
I wonder when it will be my turn...
Thinking about this, the Mantis Woman suddenly felt somewhat bored.
She retracted her antennae and hugged her head with a pillow.
Perhaps I should take the initiative?
Just like... Peter tonight.
……
The next morning.
Peter first took Gwen to Kamar-Taj, then returned to Parker Estate and naturally took Wanda downstairs for dinner.
Inside the restaurant, Felicia was spreading jam on toast.
She looked up and saw the two people walking side by side. She paused for a moment, then slightly curled the corners of her mouth before continuing to spread her jam.
Sif sat on the other side of the table, her gaze sweeping over Peter and Wanda.
She didn't say anything, but just raised an eyebrow at Peter, the meaning of which couldn't be clearer—can't you just shut up for a second?
Good morning!
A slightly tired voice came from the direction of the stairs.
The praying mantis woman slowly descended the stairs, holding onto the handrail. She had obvious dark circles under her eyes and looked listless.
"What's wrong?" Felicia asked.
"Ah... I drank too much coffee last night and didn't sleep well," Mantis replied with a yawn, her eyes darting around as she spoke, not looking at anyone.
Felicia didn't think much of it.
Sif put down her fork.
She glanced at Mantis, then at Peter and Wanda, and the gears in her mind began to slowly turn.
The Mantis Woman's ability is to sense emotions.
Peter went to Wanda's room last night.
The room of Mantis and the room of Wanda are separated by only one wall.
Then today, the Mantis Woman, sporting dark circles under her eyes, said she "didn't sleep well."
Sif: "..."
Goodness, I never expected you, this naive and innocent girl, to be the most perverted one!
They were even eavesdropping!
After an awkward breakfast, Peter had originally planned to take the girls to a private beach vacation since he had nothing else to do.
But while packing her luggage, Sif suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Peter asked.
“Heimdall is calling me.” Sif stood up. “Queen Frigga has something to ask of you.”
Upon hearing this, Peter had a vague idea of what was going on.
It's probably related to Hela.
Thinking of this, his spirits lifted.
"Okay, plans have changed. We'll talk about the beach vacation when Sif and I get back from Asgard."
As soon as he finished speaking, a rainbow beam descended from the sky, precisely transporting the two people on the ground to the other side of the rainbow bridge.
……
When Peter opened his eyes, he was already standing at the entrance to Asgard.
Heimdall stood beside the central control panel, holding a greatsword, and nodded slightly to the two men.
"Mr. Parker, the Queen is waiting for you in the main hall of Asgard."
Peter nodded to Heimdall, and then followed Sif to Asgard with practiced ease.
Because the two sides have cooperated many times and are already old acquaintances.
Frigga didn't stand on ceremony and went straight to the point about why she had invited Peter:
"Hela is coming back."
Upon hearing the name, Peter remained calm, while Sif looked bewildered.
Who is Hela?
After taking a deep breath, Frigga explained:
"The child Odin had with his ex-wife is the goddess of death, who governs the underworld of Asgard and is bound to Asgard from birth."
Before I married into Asgard, she was Asgard's most powerful warrior and Odin's right-hand woman..."
Frigg recounted Hela's life in general terms, and added at the end:
"Actually, I have been reinforcing the seal with magic ever since Odin died, but with my abilities, I simply cannot stop Hela from breaking the seal at all."
"In less than three days, Hela will break the seal and return to claim everything that belongs to her!"
"So what do you plan to do?" Peter asked.
