Chapter Thirteen

Kelthia, Miraj City, Holding District

The Harbinger's home

Luc and Senthys cleaned the kitchen after dinner while Wulf napped on the couch. For once, Senthys didn't argue over homework and he completed his academic lessons without difficulty. Luc practiced with him for the Level 14 Advanced Pickpocket exam he'd take next week. The doctor had been right; this new dose worked much better. After Luc had put Senthys through his paces, he clapped him on the shoulder.

"Excellent work, son. No doubt you'll pass with a perfect score."

"Thank you, Sen'dai."

"According to the Headmaster, you have the highest aptitude in the Academy."

"Wow!" Senthys shut off the learning pad and picked it up. "He always talks to me like I'm a screw-up."

"That's because you insist on pranks and foolishness."

"Okay, yeah, I like pranks, but I'm no screw up."

"I agree with you there. So suppose you explain to me how you got suspended from the Thieves' Guild Academy for stealing ice cream from the lunch room."

"Oh, that." He made an off-handed gesture. "One of my friends got put on punishment for not studying, even though he knows the material perfectly. They told him he couldn't buy ice cream for a week."

"How does that involve you?"

"Well, they didn't tell me I couldn't buy it for him."

He rubbed his mouth. "Headmaster de Laney says you stole it."

"Yeah, because he punished me for buying it, so I stole it. Then he punished me for that. That wasn't fair. There's nothing in the handbook about not stealing ice cream. I checked. I attend the Thieves' Guild Academy to learn to be a professional thief, yet stealing from them is against the rules?" He folded his arms. "Explain that if you can."

Luc opted for the answer that would end the conversation fastest. "The headmasters don't like anyone working the system and showing them up. You know what that means?"

"Yeah. Don't get caught again."

"Exactly."

"Don’t worry, Sen'dai. I won't."

"Glad to hear it. Bedtime, Senthys."

"Yes, sir. Good night."

He let Senthys get to the first step of the stairs. "Son, I'll take back my second debit bracelet and ID now." He held out his hand. "Well done, though."

With a muttered curse, Senthys came back to him, slapped the items into his hand, and then climbed the stairs to bed.

Luc waited until the house was quiet before he stooped beside Wulf, still asleep on the couch. He touched his shoulder.

Wulf pulled away, eyes still closed. "Not time to get up yet."

"No, love. It's dark outside. Time for bed."

He murmured unintelligibly and turned over on his side.

"Come on, love." Luc shook him. "Time to get up and go upstairs."

More mumbling. Wulf snuggled further into the couch.

"I guess I'll have to carry you."

Wulf turned onto his back. "I can walk."

"Faker! You had me believing you were asleep."

"I was." The whites of his eyes made a sharp contrast against the brown. "I'm getting up so you won't carry me. How would that look?" He sat up. "One grown man carrying another." He got to his feet alone but staggered and Luc had to grab him.
