A Squire's Wish (Hidden Wishes #2)

“This would be a lot easier if I was allowed to use magic.” I exhaled audibly and twisted my shoulders, my arms throbbing. Still, at least we were finally inside our new duplex. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, hardwood floors, and a living room meant I was paying much more than I wanted. But, considering Alexa had insisted on the larger space, and she was paying half, I’d compromised. I had to admit, looking around the relatively modern, open-plan space, it looked nice. Even if all the belongings I had from my bachelor suite barely filled our new home.

“Oh please, this is barely a workout,” Alexa said as she impatiently tapped her foot. The Nordic blonde was more Wonder Woman than model and had more muscles in her arms than I did, so it was no surprise she was barely out of breath.

“Mage,” I said and pointed to myself as I struggled to catch my breath. Though perhaps I could do with a little more actual exercise.

“The enforcers in the Mage Council are as well known for their physical prowess as they are for their magical abilities,” Alexa said. I grunted, refusing to acknowledge her point, even while being intrigued by the idea of buff magic users. I guessed real-world magicians were more like anime heroes than Raistlin. In either case, the initiate was more likely to know than I did. The Templars had been the church’s sharp edge against the supernatural world for hundreds of years. They’d been occasional allies and enemies of the Mage Council throughout the years. Me? I’d barely entered the supernatural world six months ago. I still had a lot to catch up on.

“Fine. So I might be slacking off on the entire exercise bit,” I muttered as I bent my knees to grab the edge of the couch once again.

“Slacking off implies you ever started,” Lily said behind me, her arms full with a cardboard box helpfully labeled “books.” The olive-skinned, slim and shapely jinn sauntered toward us from the front door where we’d deposited our initial run with a sway of her hips. “Where do you want these?”

“What are they?” I grunted out as we maneuvered the couch to catch the sunlight and to face where we’d decided the TV would go.

“Reference material.”

“Huh?” I said as I squatted and set my end of the couch on the floor.

“Your role-playing books.” The jinn held the heavy box of books with one hand as she scratched her nose, obviously not bothered with things like weight. No surprise there. Her “body” wasn’t really real, just a magical construct, which begged the question why I was doing the heavy lifting, but that would open up a whole different can of worms regarding Lily’s increasing agoraphobia.

“Right. We’ll keep those in the living room,” I said and pointed to the corner we’d designated for the bookcases. For a moment, I felt amazed as the reality of my situation hit me once again. Not the shacking up with two stunning, supermodel-level, good-looking women but the fact that I was a mage—a mage wielding magic through a wish granted by a jinn who based my entire leveling progression off a homebrew mixture of role-playing game books, single-player video games, and massive multiplayer online games. It was how my old RPG books became reference material.
