Y/N's pov:
After an hour of driving through the underground railroad you and your group of misfits arrived in Montreal. Hoping off the truck and helping Evelynn down, you run to the back to help the others get down. Isha immediately jumped into your arms, excited to see you again.
As you swung the kid you saw Wednesday looking at you. Coming to a stop to laugh with the little kid you glance from the corner of your eye to her.
Her dark eyes held a gentleness you've only seen once in your time with her. That time was when you were dying in her arms. Putting Isha down you turn to fully face her. To your shock she didn't deny or change her gaze because you and Isha were still in her view.
No way she's thinking about- "Isha darling."
You glance over and see Evelynn kneeling down to Isha's level. The teeth missing girl smiles brightly and signs questions to the princess before following her parents. You didn't need to look back at Wednesday to know what she felt. You felt her heated glare on the interaction.
NA! Maybe she was just tired. Why would Wednesday Addams think about forming a family! You lie to yourself as you walk over to a door on the road of the station you all stopped at. A painted Canadian flag welcomes you along with the French words "Bienvenue à la liberté. ."
Knocking on it three times with pauses the door opens up to a tall young black male wearing a simple T-shirt and sweat pants.
"Morning Duke Hastings!" You say giving him a very dramatic bow that causes you to hit your head on the ladder.
"Very funny," says Simon as he holds a hand for you to take after you wave everyone over. Soon the darkness was replaced with a well lit basement full of what one would expect of a man cave of a Duke. Velvet pool table in the center with a large bar next to it, filled to the brim with expensive liquor. A movie theater-sized television in the far back with leather lounge chairs. And next to the mini theatre a library and a 60s Ferrari.
"It's good to see you again, Princess Y/N," says Simon's wife Daphne in a soft voice. Her tired eyes welcomed everyone else but brightened when she saw Gloria's son David and Isha. Quickly making way to them and taking them upstairs to get a snack and sleep.
"This, everyone?" He asks as he checks the cellar. You nod as you take a seat on the floor. Looking around the crowd you do a mental roll call of who is in the room. All that were missing were Caitlynn, Vi, Shiro, and the Huntrix trio. But also a few unnamed members who were secretly your cards up your sleeve. Kiwi was one of them. Her being here meant something or someone else was tagging along in this secret cold war the world was in.
"I know it hasn't been long since we've met but many of us have major updates on our investigations. You say, glancing at Ekko and Adora.
Ekko sits up. "We'll start. Dort is blackmailing Bianca to mind control people like Mrs. Addams to obtain large amount of money-"
"My mother?" Asks Wednesday. Although she showed no emotion, the slight crack in her tone showed she was worried. Just a bit. Barley or so she showed because deep down she did care but still had a reputation to live by.
"Don't worry I prevented Bianca from getting away with it." Evelynn says giving Wednesday a cocky smile. "Akira alerted me about Bianca's suspicious attitude."
Before Wednesday could counter Evelynn, Adora continued her report. She went into detail on how Dort had a lot of information on Sirens which made his background and past even weirder. The background check done for Nevermore along with given information on his past never mentioned any type of interaction with Sirens. Hell he was barely around water areas in his resume!
