Orphan / female reader x lady dimitrescu

Nothing ever made you scoop up quicker than the lacking presence of Alcina next to you and you look around the room, feeling a little uneasy when you can't spot her.
You are still not a hundred percent awake from your nap, so it takes you a moment to slip from the bed to check if the woman maybe happens to be in her bathroom, yet the second both of your legs have to carry your weight, a pain jolts through them and you squint your eyes, holding onto the bedframe to make sure you keep standing.
'Maybe I should just stay in bed…' you think and eye the matress once more, but you are worried that something might have happened.

You take a deep breath and hobble from one obect that you can hold onto to the next, slowly approaching the door to the bathroom and you knock at the door two times.
,,Alcina?", you ask out lout and nobody answers.
You furrow your eyebrows and open the door, only to find an empty room.
'She is probably with the others, somewhere', you think and close the door again.
Now you only have to figure out where that might be.
'The dining room, probably…', you eye the door on the other side of the room and let out a sigh, before you stumble over to the dresser, holding yourself up on the wood and then almost falling against the doorknob.

,,What did Heisenberg call her again… Bird bitch?", you mumble as you set  foot through the door frame ,,How fitting".
In a ridiculously slow pace you follow the corridor, managing to keep yourself up with your hands on the walls and even the tiny steps you are making cause you to feel exhausted.
,,Alcina?", you call out, in hopes that the woman would hear you and make a few more steps before you stop at another dresser to have a pause, resting against it with your full body and you take a deep breath.

The sound of buzzing comes to your ear and you look up, seeing a swarm of flies approach you and it isn't until the cloud of bugs is right before you that Cassandra morphes back into her human form.
She raises an eyebrow and you press your lips onto each other. Perfect. Might be that you and her were on better terms now, that didn't mean you wanted her to see you in this state though.
You knew her humor and you didn't feel the need to listen to her joke about you right now.

,,Hey there, pretty girl. You weren't supposed to leave the bed", Cassandra says and gives you a crooked smile. You stare at her for a second, then you raise your eyebrows.
,,Well, I didn't know that", you say and notice how she eyes you up and down for a second.
,,Mother probably thought you would sleep a little longer… You are searching for her, am I right?".
,,Yup", you lean your elbow on top of the dresser and clear your throat ,,You don't happen to know where she is?".
,,I do, we are all together right now", she replies and sends you a questioning gaze ,,Do you… Do you need some help with walking? I must admit, seeing you hobbling around like that even makes me feel bad".
,,That'd be great", you sigh and before you know it, the tall girl is by your side, wrapping one arm around your waist and holds you up.
For a moment you eye her in confusion and she chuckles.
,,You save me from dying, I save you from looking ridiculous. Isn't that a fair deal?".
,,It is", you grin, and with Cassandras help you manage to reach the dining room a little quicker than you probably would have on your own.

Cassandra pushes the door open and immediately the eyes of the four lords, and Daniela and Bela lay on you. Dani sends you a little wave and you just smile at her, because in the same moment Alcina raises from her chair and eyes in you in worry.
,,Y/N, are you okay?", she aks and you simply nod, she then gives you a sign to come over to her.
Cassandra removes her arm from your waist but she doesn't let go of you until you reach Alcina, who simply lays her hands on your hips and you ignore the snicker coming from Daniela as the woman places you on her lap
A light blush creeps over your cheeks as you look up to her for a split second, but the smile on her lips and soft expression in her eyes helps you ignore that there are other people in the room, so you lean against her front and just enjoy the comfort of feeling her near you.

Heisenberg then clears his throat and leans back against his chair on the opposite side of the table.
,,So, as I was saying", he starts and seemingly picks up where you and Cassandra had interrupted him ,,We don't know when that bird bitch might attack again, but something that we know is, that if she won't die, we all will either suffer under her forever, or she will end all of us, one after one".
,,You want to kill mother?", Moreau asks, sounding a little whiny and you assume that he seemingly really saw nothing wrong with her actions.

,,She never was our mother", Alcina then says, sounding bitter ,,And you… We all should stop seeing her as one".
You glance up to her, conflicted if you should feel proud or sad over her finally coming to terms with Miranda being anything but a mother, yet the way Alcinas eyes have a certain harshness to them you realize that she isn't sad over Mirandas betrayal. She is mad.

,,But how are we going to do that?", Donna asks, her voice sounding as soft as ever and only now you notice that Angie is here as well, sitting on the woman's lap. 
You can't recall a single time where that doll had been that silent.
Heisenberg shrugs and takes off his glasses. ,,I don't know yet", he says ,,We have to think of something and make a good plan beforehand. That woman sadly is not stupid, as we know".

,,Maybe we can get help from others..
Are there any other people around that still have unfinished buisness with her?", Bela furrows her eyebrows and you look at her for a split second.
,,If he didn't die yet, Winters", you say quietly and look up to Alcina ,,Even if he has the flasks, I don't think he would let her be unharmed".
,,I won't work with that man-thing", Alcina shakes her head and you give her a slight nod. Understandable, since he almost got her daughter killed.

,,Why not?", Heisenberg raises his eyebrows ,,An angry father who would do anything for his child, who also if I might add has a great body, would be a great ally".
Daniela snickers and repeats: ,,Great body, sure".
,,He does", Heisenberg shrugs and you catch Alcina and Cassandra rolling their eyes.
,,I mean, maybe we can talk sense into him. Asking won't hurt", Donna says and runs a slender hand over Angie's veil ,,If he wants Miranda to pay for what she did, he might need help with it. We all have the same goal".
You nod slightly and watch Alcinas facial expression change. 
,,Okay", she lets out a deep breath.

,,But how can we contact him?", Moreau scratches his head beneath the hood of his coat and before you can start thinking about a solution, Heisenberg starts to grin.
,,I think I know a way".

(A/N: I promise the next chapter will be longer, and it will contain something we all have been waiting for. Spoiler: it has something to do with blood ;) )
