[3rd POV]

With the bookstore now connected to universes around the multiverse, Wanda had made sure to add some new forms of payment. All in the form of paying through books from other universes, the more rare and interesting the book is to Wanda, the more it will cover. It can even be used to pay ahead of time for future books, should they want to, or pay for several books at a time.

She did this mostly because some of the universes that people would begin to come from, were full of knowledge that she would love to learn, like other forms of magic, unique forms of science, and all sorts of other books.

Raven had some questions in regards to what universes the store was connected to, which Wanda had answered, but now, now Wanda was just sitting, waiting for the first guest from beyond their multiverse, as she had opened the store in one random universe, the next being opened soon, but only once she spoke with the first guest.

“Who do you think the first guest will be?” Raven asked, as Wanda hummed.

“It could be anyone really, but I am hoping it is someone interesting. Preferably someone with access to books that I’ve never read or something of interest” Wanda replied, as she had a few people in mind that she was hoping would step through that door, as she had randomly chosen which universe could enter first, so she had no idea who would be entering.

Raven nodded at her response, as the door dinged, and three people entered, two men and one woman. The woman was beautiful, and very pregnant, while the men seemed to be young, and were quite handsome. Each of them were supernatural in nature, and each of them were…quite weak all things considered.

They were:

Klaus Mikaelson

Elijah Mikaelson

Hayley Marshall

“Well, can’t say I was expecting the Mikaelsons to be my first customers, but I suppose I can’t complain” Wanda said out loud with a smile. Their universe was…weak, but it also had some rather intriguing forms of immortality and magic that could be VERY strong when used right.

The immortality part was what caught her eyes mostly. As it could prove helpful if she was to use it on a ritual for herself, as while she was immortal, she could still “Die”, it was more so her regeneration factor that she wanted to improve, and they had some ways of doing that.

“Who the bloody hell are you?” Klaus asked, eyes narrowed fiercely while Elijah was looking around the room with a frown on his face, noticing that the store was very…simple looking.

“Wanda Maximoff, Bookstore owner. And you must be Hayley Marshall, correct? The mother of the Tribrid” Wanda said as she looked at the woman, glancing at her pregnant belly, sensing the power and potential of the child within.

‘Hmm? For a child born in such a weak universe, she has quite a lot of potential for growth. Not to mention fate itself seems to be quite connected to her’ Wanda thought, before looking back at the startled Hayley.

“How did you know that?” Hayley asked, as Klaus and Elijah looked at Wanda with alarm.

“It’s quite easy to sense for someone like me, Hayley. Now, are you here to shop for a book or perhaps some tea? Or are you here to glare at me like I should be afraid of you?” Wanda asked, amused with the looks Klaus was giving her.

Raven during all of this, was watching with a deadpan, realizing that Wanda had chosen some…interesting folk to let into her shop.

“What sort of books?” Elijah asked, putting a hand in front of Klaus to stop him from attacking Wanda.

“Just about anything you can imagine, Elijah. Books on magic? Books on science beyond your wildest dreams? Books on how to kill the unkillable? Really just matters what you’re looking for” Wanda said, as Hayley’s eyes lit up.

“What about a book that can teach us how to sever a link? Like, a link between two people, where one is harmed the other is harmed too, that sort of thing” Hayley explained, as Wanda hummed.

Flicking her wrist, the books warped into their magical forms, and a book flew into her hand.

“”Magical Links and how to sever them” should do the trick. Your…realm is quite different then mine, but this should be more than enough to deal with it, as long as you find a strong enough witch, of course” Wanda said, placing the book into Hayley’s hands as she flipped through it.

“Page 104 is what you’re looking for. But, what will you give me in return? I take money, but I also take exchanges of books as well. The more interesting the book is to me, the more it’s worth. You can buy several books at a time mattering on the exchange” Wanda explained, stopping Hayley from flipping to that page, as that would make buying it pointless.

“However, I will warn you that books like these cost quite a lot, even by your standards” Wanda warned, as Klaus growled.

“And why can we not just take it from you?” Klaus asked, causing Wanda to raise an eyebrow.

“Because the door is shut behind you” Wanda said simply, sipping on her tea as they all looked behind them, and low and behold, the door was shut, not allowing them to escape.

“I’d also add that my store appeared out of nowhere, in an impossible location, and I have books that can start wars in your world. Do you really believe I am simply some woman?” Wanda asked, as Elijah breathed out and spoke.

“Are you a God?” Elijah asked.

“Hmmm, I suppose I am, sort of at least. It’d be more accurate to say that I am well beyond any God” Wanda replied with a simple smile on her face.

“And where is this bookstore?” Elijah asked the next question on his mind, as Klaus frowned and Hayley looked alarmed.

“In simplest terms? A dimension that I have created, one that is under my complete and absolute control. So as I said before, what will you pay through? Knowledge or wealth?” Wanda asked, staring at them as Klaus growled and was preparing to attack, only for Hayley to step forward.

“Knowledge. We’ve got tons of books back home that I’m sure you’ll be interested in. And you said if we bring enough, we can pay ahead of time for more books in the future, right?” Hayley asked, as Wanda smirked.

“Seems the Queen of Wolves has claws. And yes, Hayley, I will, it entirely matters on what they are, but I’m sure you’ll find something. Now, leave the book here and come back with the payment, then we can see how much it gets you” Wanda said, as Hayley nodded, placing the book on the checkout area before grabbing the two brothers by the arms and dragging them away from the shop.

Watching them walk off, Wanda chuckled.

“They were…interesting. They weren’t human, were they?”

“Nope, Klaus, the angry one, is a Hybrid between Vampire and Werewolf. Elijah is a pure vampire, and Hayley is pure Werewolf. The little one in her belly is a Tribrid between Vampire, Werewolf, and Witch” Wanda responded, before connecting the next universe, as it would take a while before the trio would come back.

And almost instantly after she did so, the door opened, three teens falling through with groans.

“Bloody hell Hermione, you could have warned us!” A red headed teen said, this teen being Ronald Weasley, a character from the iconic Harry Potter.

“How could I have known that it would open as we leaned against it? Honestly Ronald, think with your brain a bit more!” Hermione, the teen Ron had yelled at, yelled back.

“Uh, guys, there’s other people in here” The third teen, the well known “Harry Potter” aka the boy who lived said to his friends, as they both blinked, turning slowly to the amused Wanda.

An embarrassed squeak escaped Hermione as she shot to her feet, Ron joining her moments later.

“You three alright there? I apologize for opening the door like that, I didn’t realize you were all so excited to come inside my humble store” Wanda said with a smirk, as the three just coughed in embarrassment.

“Sorry ma’am. Um…where did this bookstore come from?” Harry asked, as Wanda smiled.

“Well I created it of course! Magic is a powerful thing, making a bookstore appear out of nowhere isn’t that difficult” Wanda said, as she glanced at his scar, sensing the rather malicious piece of magic within.

“I-but the magic to do something like that is impossible!” Hermione exclaimed, as Wanda just looked at the girl with a small smile.

“Is it impossible because it truly is, or is it impossible because no one else has ever done it before?” Wanda asked, as the girl blinked several times.

“Well it’s impossible because the amount of magic required would be extraordinary! Not to mention it goes against several rules of magic!” Hermione replied, as Wanda giggled.

“Rules are boring, it’s much more fun to break them. Now, what is Miss Hermione Granger, Ronald Weasley, and Harry Potter doing in my little shop?” Wanda asked, causing the three of them to look at her in surprise.

“How do you-” “Magic” Raven cut off Ron bluntly.

“Okay well, what sort of books do you sell?” Harry asked, as he looked around.

“Matters what you’re looking for. I sell books on magic, science, non-fiction, fiction, and more”

“What sort of magic?” Hermione asked, finding herself slowly getting over the impossibility of it all, and growing more interested, her book nerd self taking over as she noticed many books she had never seen or heard of before.

In response, Wanda smiled as the book shelves warped into their magical selves, before looking over the three teens, and speaking.

“Why don’t you take a look?”

That’s the end of the chapter!

Her first guests from beyond her multiverse have arrived!

I can tell you now that Hermione will be a frequent customer (she is a nerd after all) and I plan on her being a sort of student/disciple of Wanda in certain areas. Same as some other customers that appear in the future.

What other guests should she have in the coming chapters?

Anyways, have a good day!
