Alexander’s POV
It was a great start of the day. I had Cassidy all pressed up against me and rays of sunlight from a clear, blue sky to keep us warm. I let him sleep for a while more. We would have to get up for the day soon.
Fawkes had come back quite late, or rather early this morning. But knowing him, he was probably awake and getting ready for work without being hungover. I sometimes suspected he used magic, but he always shrugged it off. As far as we knew, he was human. It didn’t matter to me either way. He was a good friend to have in a fight. And we had gotten into many, half of which he’d talked us into and out of.
The agenda for today was quite straightforward. Breakfast in the suite, a tour of the Atlantis’ research and development labs and then set sail for Lupus. Fawkes wasn’t joining us for the tour, though I knew he would want to. He had duties on board the ship that he had to attend.
