My eyes opened groggily as I looked around the room. We had fallen asleep on the sofa. Well, Alexander had. I had fallen asleep on top of him. I yawned and stretched my sore arms before getting up to get dressed and make breakfast. Well, I tried to. I was pulled back down on top of Alexander as he muttered, "Warm..."

"Alexander, as much as I would love to stay here all day, we need to get up."

"Don't wanna."

"Neither do I, but hey." I pried Alexander's arms off of my waist and stood up. "Come on, get up."

"Fine." Alexander sighed, stood up, and stretched. "Is there anything you have to do today?"

"Not that I'm aware of, but, knowing my Father, there will be." 

"Oh." He sighed.

"Why? What's wrong?"

"It's just, I was hoping we could have a lazy day. Guess that's not happening, though."

"It never happens, unfortunately. No rest for the wicked. Literally." I headed towards my closet, rifled through it, and threw Alexander some new clothes. "Wear these. We need to get you some more anyway."

"What's wrong with my sweaters?"

I stuck my head out of the closet. "Alexander, as much as your terrible fashion sense is for some reason adorable to me, you are now a public figure. More so than you were before. You need to dress halfway decent." I dove back into my closet before finding an outfit that fitted my mood today. Perfect. I strode out and towards the bathroom. Emerging an hour later, I attached myself to Alexander's arm as we headed towards the tower for breakfast.

I was right. My father did have a job for me. It's just not one I was expecting to be given. Instead of another meeting or a pile of paperwork, he was sending me to Lower City. And of all things to be doing there, it was to check for new warlock children.

Is anyone still reading this? Who knows. Well, here's an update anyway. This entire book is going to be rewritten, with better descriptions, worldbuilding, plot, etc. Some things might be deleted completely.
