Alice didn't know if this number was still active. Or if it was, it's recipient was who she intended, but who else were she to call? Who else could she whisper to her phone to dial.
"Call Alessandra "
If there was a night where her cell didn't ring, she'd be surprised. Rarely did she check the caller ID anymore.
"Yes?" comes the familiar Italian voice.
Alice could have cried, one word, but that accent.
"Ale. Hi." Alice fumbles for a moment. [COLOR="#E6E6FA"]"I'm - "[/clolor] what should she say. No longer in pieces? No longer dying and dying and dying? "Awake."
The Savage freezes, she knew the voice. But was it really her? Then words that she was awake, and Ale knew it had to be her.
“Dio mio! Alice!” came the Italian, then a pause, needed to refocus the brain to english, “Alice?!” disbelief in her voice, “Is that really you? Where have you been?!” why her Ghoul took her, she would never understand. Alice would have been perfectly safe here. “Where are you?”
Now, Alice laughs, takes a breath because she could "I-I....don't know how to start explaining that over the phone. Can we meet? The Nox? Somewhere else?"
Her mind was going over various situations. Where Alice had been taken, where her mind might be.
But she was right, this wasn’t a phone conversation, “Oh, yeah, sure. Did you need me to send a car or someone to get you? Is your friend still with you?” she asks, having forgotten the poor girls name. Hey, it’d been a while. “I’m currently at Nox. But, uh, a new office.” She didn’t know Ale was Prince now.
"A car would be great....and yeah, my friend is still around. She...took care of me." finding out that Lyssa had taken her away from the Domain had been a shock, Alice didn't know what the Reeve would do to the ghoul who took Asa's Seneschal away from her post....even if she'd been lost in nightmares at the time.
Want to open the scene or should I?
“Sure. Just let me know where and I’ll send one.” Well, an Uber. Unless she called her Herd, but an Uber would be easier. Then again, getting her own Ghoul, not the four legged type, would be easier too. “I’m glad she was able to take care of you.” Though running off with her torpored body wasn’t ok. “My office will be the only open door. Unless you would prefer I meet you outside.” She offers.
I can get one open
"I'm at [here], and..if you want to meet me, sure, but I can find my way down." she says, a ghost of a smile painted on.
Whooo, super excited!
