Charlotte laughed ever so lightly, "He only likes me because I'm one of the few remaining witches that'll help him. They do accept you, I just think you are very different from the rest of this family. " she smiled ever so slightly before gazing over towards Micah, her head nodding. "I know I should .. maybe later when I've had some more liquid courage." she laughed, her eyes falling back to Aphroditi as she noticed her slipping the servant money, "you shouldn't do that tonight, it's not safe." she said in a much lower voice, "there are better ways to help them."
Nathan chuckled at Micah's comment about Aprhoditi, "don't be an idiot, she is definitely not a taxidermy. but I know I have to try harder." He rolled his eyes, but quickly went to protect his balls from his brothers playful hit, "Hey! at least I've found someone who clearly appreciates my shrivelled up cherries." he laughed again but it fell silent as his father took centre stage, his hand reaching out to hold Aphroditis.
Before anyone else could speak Draco, the father of Nathan and Micah took to the centre of the room with two young female vampires either side of him. The band stopped playing and the conversations in the hall fell silent. He wrapped his pale fingers around a microphone and began addressing the room, "Good evening my friends, family. We are all gathered here tonight to celebrate a tremendous moment in history when our race rose to pour. taking our time in the spotlight. Well tonight, I have an important surprise for my kids. This here is one of my most prised possessions," he said as he removed a pocket watch from his blazer and dangled it in the air, "It's an important family momento , as my children will know, and contains such incredible power that will improve any vampires survival skills and strength."
