After Wanda was done training her magic, she went back down the mountain and into the mansion where she and Natasha would have lunch.

They would wake up at 6 AM every day, fresh as the sun, courtesy of Alex's help that allowed them to sleep with perfect efficiency.

Then they would do two hours of physique training, followed by breakfast. After which came 2 hours of shared combat technique training and 4 hours of separate training for Wanda and Natasha.

After that, the rest of their days were free.

Wanda went back to the house and smelled a delicious lunch.

"I thought that it was my turn to make lunch today, Nat?" Wanda asked as she walked into the kitchen and saw Nat wearing an apron over a hoodie and leggings.

"I know, but I wanted to make something that I remembered from my childhood. Melina used to make this." Nat smiled as she told Wanda.

"Melina?" Wanda was confused.

"My surrogate mother for a temporary period of time… It's a long story." Natasha wasn't planning to talk about her past yet.

"It's fine." Wanda smiled and took a seat at the dining table.

Soon, Alex also came and took a seat beside Wanda.

Since the three of them were living together, Alex had made it a habit to stay in his human form and not create any more bodies. At least not visible ones. The presence of two copies of Alex would be a little weird for both of the girls.

After lunch, it was time for both of the girls' training 'rewards'. Though today was a little different for Wanda.

Natasha went into her room alone to enjoy her time with Alex, but just as Wanda was getting up, Alex said in her head, [Let's not do the reward today.]

Wanda's cheerful expression fell and she looked like a puppy who'd been abandoned by her owner, "What…" She looked at Alex who was sitting beside her.

Alex felt immensely proud when he saw her expression. The fact that she wasn't embarrassed about showing her disappointment with his words was in itself an achievement for him. He'd been working hard in getting her comfortable and open with him. To the point that she treats him like a true confidante.

[We have our date today. We can do it after the date tonight.] He appeased her.

His words had an immediate effect as Wanda got a smile on her face, "Fine. I'll watch some TV till then." She was excited again as she walked to the living room.

Alex inwardly smiled as he felt her happy feelings through the empathetic connection.

"Snuggle with me, Alex…" Wanda called him as she put on a show.

"You're really spoiled, you know that?" He told her as he followed her to the living room.

"What can I say, I'm a clingy girl." She looked at him with a cheeky smile, owning her clingy trait.

Alex had a helpless smile on his face as he sat on the couch and opened his arms invitingly.

Wanda practically jumped into his arms as she took a comfortable spot in his lap.

At the same time, in Natasha's room.

Black tendrils extended from Natasha's body as Alex's body coalesced in front of her.

"Hi." He smiled.

"Hi…" Natasha chuckled.

"There's something on your mind." Alex noticed Natasha's fluctuating mood.

"I'm worried about Steve…" She said while holding her left arm with her right hand and looking to the side.

"You're lying." Alex caught the master spy's lie. She'd already contacted Steve and knew that he was safe in Wakanda.

"You're unfair. You're bonded to me and can tell…" She tried to change the subject.

Alex slowly brought his hand to the side of her face and trailed his fingers down to her chin. He made her look up at him by gently pulling her chin up.

"The truth, Natasha…" Alex asked gently as he looked at her hesitant expression as bit her lips.

As she kept hesitating, Alex brought his thumb to her lips and stopped her from biting them.

"I was thinking…" She looked deeply into his emerald green eyes with her olive green eyes.

"Yeah." He was patient.

She took a deep breath, "We're bonded together, right?"

"Right."

"And it's for life." She said questioningly.

"Right."

"And what are your views on me finding a partner?" She asked.

"I'm your partner." He said with a flat tone, but there was an undertone of finality in his words.

"Yeah, but what if it's someone other than you—" She tried to continue and was interrupted.

"We're bonded for life, babe. There is no other partner. And there will be no partner. You can think of it as marriage, just on a far deeper level." Alex had a dark look in his eyes. He wasn't going to entertain any such thought.

"If that's the case, then what about Wanda? She's immature and doesn't realize the implications of your words, but you know what you imply with those words." She said.

"Natasha, baby…" He said gently, "I'm bonded with you. And I'm bonded with Wanda. Both of you are equally important to me. And both of you are bonded to me for life. Period."

"Then—" She was again interrupted by Alex.

"I know what you're feeling right now. You feel that lack of a connection with me. You don't have any issue with our bond, but you want an emotional connection. Isn't that right?" Alex understood what she wanted. Her thoughts were all over the place and she herself wasn't sure of what she wanted, but when Alex put it out like that, she realized that he was kind of right.

"I guess, yeah. We train, we fuck, and we eat. It just… feels a little artificial," She said.

"How about this? Tomorrow, I'll take you out. We'll take the jet. I'll also pick up some parts that I need so that I can modify the jet and we can go on a superhero date. We'll take down a crime syndicate— I was thinking the Mexican cartel, then we could go watch a movie, and we'll get some dinner, what do you say?" He asked her. He understood the problem that Nat had.

When it came to a normal symbiotic connection, both the host and the symbiote shared each other's feelings on a very deep level.

Alex's case was a little different. The empathetic connection that shares the feelings was only one way for Alex. He'd blocked his hosts from reading and understanding his feelings, but he was able to understand what his hosts feel.

This was the reason that Nat felt this disconnect. And as the level of the bond increases, the blockage that Alex had set up would also naturally disappear.

His words put a smile on Natasha's face, "That sounds like a nice plan."

They were both practically sticking to each other as they talked and with Natasha's agreement for the date tomorrow, Alex sealed the deal with a kiss. He wasn't going to skip Natasha's reward session.

As they hugged, Alex didn't notice the deep thoughtful look in Nat's eyes, nor did he realize that she had been masking her surface thoughts. She'd long realized he could read her surface thoughts whenever he wanted. She'd already come up with a countermeasure for his ability.

That evening.

"Where are you taking me?" Wanda asked with a smile on her face. Her eyes were covered by a silky red blindfold. She was wearing a classy red backless gown with matching red strappy heels. There was a slit running from the side below her thigh that revealed her leg as she walked. The dress had two thin spaghetti straps that went over her shoulders.

She was holding Alex's hand as he guided her to their date spot. He was wearing a typical black suit along with a Rolex that he'd found in the mansion. He may be a symbiote now, but that didn't mean that he wasn't a fan of collecting material items. Not every desire can be fulfilled by creating it using his symbiote body. Especially since he loved collecting watches in his original world too.

"Shush… If I tell you, then it won't be a surprise." He told her.

With the striking clothes that they were wearing, it would be impossible to get any peace in a public setting. Especially with Wanda's popularity as an Avenger. The government and authority figures may not like her, but everyone was a sucker for a superhero. They both would've been swarmed the moment they stepped foot in public. Not to mention that Wanda was a wanted person.

Wanda wasn't very used to wearing high heels so she ended up stumbling once or twice due to the snowy ground, though Alex was there to support her.

"All right, here we are…" He said as he went behind her and took off the blindfold.

What greeted Wanda was a snowy open dining area. The floor was snowy and there was a single table in the center with a white cloth covering it, with a candelabra illuminating the table.

"Open dinner?" She asked rhetorically as she admired the clear view of the night sky as the stars shined upon them.

"I thought that you'd like it." Alex walked ahead with her and pulled back the chair, letting her take a seat.

"Where's the mansion?" Wanda didn't see the mansion. And they had only walked for a few minutes, so she expected to see the mansion in her view.

"I camouflaged it. It gives the feel of us truly being in the middle of nowhere, with snowy mountains all around us…" Alex took a seat in front of her.

"It's amazing Alex." Wanda held his hand over the table.

"Only the best for my girl. Waiter." Alex called the waiter.

"Who's—" Wanda's question was left unspoken as a typical waiter with a thin mustache walked up to the table with a wine bottle in hand and two menus.

"Some white wine, madam?" He asked with a slightly exaggeratedly pretentious expression on his face.

"Sure…" Wanda was amused as she looked at the 'waiter' pouring the wine into her's and Alex's glasses. She understood that this was Alex utilizing his cloning ability.

"What do you think?" Alex asked her.
