To Dwell In Nightmares and Dreams

Suspicion

Alicia felt glad that Mieczyslaw had opened up a little more, his muscles slowly relaxed near the end of the conversation with the sorcerous.

Though it they definitely had been treading on thin ice, what on earth had that sorcerer, Antony was it? Been thinking when he'd said that to Mieczyslaw?

He'd pretty much signed his death wish right there. If she hadn't reminded Mieczyslaw  about their talk and him meant to be gaining a better control over his tempter she was pretty sure he'd be a smear on the ground right now.

Alicia scowled thinking about that Sorcerer, he'd felt a bit too smug for her liking, likely never knew how close to his own death he'd been right there, she thought.

The other sorcerer, Tony, definitely seemed smarter of the two, it's a pity he didn't speak out much and just seemed to follow Antony's lead, must be a pack thing she supposed.

Kian also rubbed her the wrong way but she did believe that getting along was best for all of them. She hoped that getting along with this pack would help Mieczyslaw with his prejudice with werewolves.

Yes most sorcerer's didn't like them but definitely not to this extent. That and because Mieczyslaw actually needed to control his temper or the districts would literally respond to his angry energy it definitely seemed like a good idea to her, for Mieczyslaw to learn to or at least relax his prejudice.

Though she could defiantly understand where he was coming from, what that horrible pack did to him made her blood boil.

"Alicia?"

She blinked, realising Mieczyslaw had been trying to get her attention for a while but she'd been lost in her thoughts.

"Oh! I'm sorry! I-"

He chuckled interrupting her apologising mess "That's Okay, I was wondering if you wanted to go back to the Mind District or do you want to come with me? I think I need to give the Lord of Power a visit about his trading"

Alicia said without even hesitating "I'll come with you"

Mieczyslaw  smirked as he said "I thought you might say that"

A portal soon appeared in front of them, it still amazed Alicia how he could do that with such ease.

Without a glance behind them, both sorcerer's stepped into the portal, both quite glad to leave the council behind them, a second later they were to Alicia's surprise directly inside the Lord of Power's throne room.

She knew they were going to see him but she didn't think they'd go directly to his throne room! She supposed, with a smile, that was the benefit of being friends with the Grand Master.

The Lord of Power was staring at himself...in the mirror, his back to the portal.

Stiles with held a smirk of amusement.

"Am I...uh, interrupting something?"

He was his smaller size and made sure to keep his voice level, trying to seem as non threatening as possibly.

Stiles hoped to get over this quickly.

He also stopped himself from chuckling as the Lord of Power jumped so high that if someone had said that there was a magical invisible trampoline underneath his feet, Stiles would have believed them.

"G-grand master! I-I wasn't expecting you-"

"Clearly" Stiles said dryly but it was covered with amusement and with no bite to it.

Considering his stress today, maybe abusing his power a bit and messing with this Lord, would be fun and give him some relief?

So sorry this has been so long! Almost finished a schedule for when I'll be writing and updating chapters so things should be a bit more regular once that's up. Hope you all stay safe with everything going on!
