But Sif just chuckles throatily as she raises her head from Pepper's chest to her face, one hand winding around to grab a fistful of the red head's hair. In the process, she's now straddling Pepper's body with her own, her free hand coming up to grope and squeeze at one of his wife's tits while Tony watches. He has to admit, seeing the two gorgeous women go at it like that is… definitely doing something for him. Not that he'd ever truly gone soft in the first place.
As she all but pins Pepper down, showing where she thinks her place in the bedroom totem pole resides (specifically below Tony but still above Pepper) Sif looks back over her shoulder at him and raises a single brow. "Well? Your lady wife is waiting for you, Lord Stark. I've prepared her quite adequately, I assure you."
Tony grunts and moves forward, grabbing Pepper 's legs. Though not before sharing a glance with his wife, making sure she's okay with Sif's domineering attitude towards her. He' s not going to let anyone bully Pepper, not even alien warriors from Norse Mythology. But Pepper just grins and nods, signaling that she ' s perfectly content with the way the situation is playing out.
With her happiness confirmed, Tony wastes no time in burying himself in Pepper's slit now. She moans as he fills her up, while Sif leans over her, panting heavily.
"Yes. Take him, Pepper. Let him fill you. He is of a good size, isn't he? A perfect size for women such as us."
Tony isn't quite sure what Sif means by 'women such as them', but if nothing else it seems to be a positive thing. Sif wouldn't be caught dead talking shit about herself after all, while she also seemed to have a good opinion of his wife at this point, especially to be lumping them into the same category like she was.
And hey, he was getting complimented to. Admittedly though, there's one thing on Tony's mind as he fucks Pepper while Sif straddles her. Leaning forward, he wraps his hands around Sif' s body, groping her tits from behind as she gasps. His lips go to her neck, where he has her moaning in no time from his suckling.
Eventually though, he pulls his mouth off of her neck and instead speaks to her, fondling Sif while he continues to fuck his wife.
"Apologies for potentially ruining the mood, but it does need to be asked… what are your plans for the next couple years, Sif? Or however long it takes them to repair the Bifrost and bring you home."
Sif tenses up at that for a moment before letting out a huff and relaxing back into Tony's chest.
"I see no reason to fret. Perhaps before I was beginning to grow concerned about what to do with myself… but now I have found my footing. I shall remain with you and your lady wife and continue training. You are clearly in dire need of a proper sparring partner, and your wife, for all her power, could use the extra protection, no?"
Tony tilts his head to the side at that, considering the merits of Sif's idea. She's right, he definitely is in need of someone who can actually push him to his limits in a fight. Technically he has Pepper, Maya, and Helen, but all three women are lovers more than fighters. Maya and Helen are pretty much married to their science and their work, while Pepper 's battlefield is in the boardroom. To be fair, Tony himself would be happy if he never had to get into a life or death fight ever again. Lots of his plans for the future actually involved staying out of such situations where in the previous timeline he'd flown headfirst into them. This world didn't have an Iron Man, as far as it was aware. It had a Tony Stark and all of his genius inventions and that was it.
However, he wasn ' t a fool. He hadn ' t made the Vibranium-Nanotech Suit just to piss off the Wakandans nor had he done it just to prove he could. He'd done it because he needed to be ready. By that logic…
"Yeah, you're right. We'll set up weekly sparring sessions down in the basement then, if that's alright with you. And in the meantime … setting you up as Pepper ' s bodyguard seems like a good stopgap measure as well. It'll certainly get some of the more financially minded poachers to back off once they realize I'm not just housing you but also giving you a paycheck beyond anything any of them could ever afford."
That actually causes Sif to look back at him, her brow furrowing.
"… I do not need to be paid to protect Lady Pepper. I would do so for free."
Tony just scoffs.
"Sounds to me like you're too used to living off of the Prince's good will, Lady Sif. Here on Midgard, currency makes the world go round. You've already spent some of my money with Pepper's help. This way, you'll actually be earning that money before you spend it going forward."
Sif flushes a bit in realization, before finally bowing her head.
"Very well. I accept, Lord Stark."
Kicking her ass in his Vibranium Armor had definitely made the female warrior a lot more deferential to him, Tony noted. If only it were that easy with everyone in his life. Have them step into the ring and go a few rounds with him to show them who was really boss. Alas, that wasn't the way the world worked ninety-nine percent of the time, unfortunately.
Which was why Tony was going to appreciate this moment for what it was as long as he could. Wrapping a hand through Sif' s hair, he pulls her head back and drags her into a kiss, tasting Pepper on her lips even now. All the while, he continues to thrust into his wife down below, filling the moaning red head with his cock time and time again.
Moments like these made the rest of it worth it, Tony decided. Knowing that his loved ones were safe, knowing that he was loved in turn.
Next week he would be meeting with Alexander Pierce so that they could unveil the Iron Legion to SHIELD's Strike Team. Pierce still thought that was his idea, as if Tony hadn't used Zola to plant the concept of the Legion being turned into piloted suits instead of remote drones in the first place. As if getting the STRIKE Team into the suits wasn't Tony's plan all along.
Likewise, Tony had JARVIS as Zola tell Pierce to keep Tony in the dark about Phase 2 and the Tesseract Research, knowing full well how much that would all blow up in Fury's face in less than two years.
Could Tony have taken command of the Tesseract and made sure that Loki and Thanos could never use it to summon themselves to Earth? Maybe, but that was a big maybe. There was every chance that even with his foreknowledge, Tony might have failed and they still would have come. The only problem would be that they'd come in a different way, a way that Tony wouldn't be able to anticipate.
No, the Invasion of New York was still going to happen. Tony had already decided as much. But HOW it would happen would go a little differently this time around. SHIELD would look incompetent, Tony would look amazing in comparison, and most importantly of all, the damage to New York would be minimal this time around. A clean and almost sanitized invasion, rather than the utter mess that had resulted in the WSC almost nuking New York City.
There were so many more things Tony had to get done before then though. Things like finishing Stark Tower for a second time and getting it built in time for Loki's invasion. First things first though, this meeting with Pierce where Tony would leverage SHIELD's coopting of the Iron Legion, as well as something else he had hidden up his sleeve, to finally get his friend into a suit of his own.
It was well past time that War Machine flew again.
