It seemed as though his family would take to Nerezza well enough, even that pain of a sister Rosemary. The two were close to age anyway with her being a few years older so at least she would be able to have someone outside her immediate family be acquainted with. Both gifts from his parents were unexpected, especially the dragon egg. Those were harshly guarded and given only in few and far circumstances. He hardly expected them to gift his wife one but it was appreciated greatly all the same.

Kaiser couldn’t help but to be amazed by how many siblings Nerezza really had; he knew that she had plenty but to see all of them lined up bearing them gifts, it was another story to witness it. He looked on amazed at the sheer number of sisters compared to brothers. It was madness and he couldn’t help but to look at Angela during all of this with a bewildered look across his face. Not many of them stayed around for too long, but they still left an impression on him just the same. And he thought having two sisters had been problematic. The gifts were all wonderful but it was Aaryona’s words that captured his attention. “Yes”, he said, holding onto Rezza’s hand, “We will be sure to remember that, thank you.”

Eirik gave a respect bow of the head to the newlyweds before departing with Aaryona. “I still don’t get all of it, but it's getting clearer to me now.”, he admitted, turning to look at them again. Lucian had been near the refreshments with Episcia when she was “abducted” by the others and he couldn’t help but to laugh before stuffing his face some more. Both Dante and Steele had been accompanying Lotus and Eldora respectively though Steele made sure his younger brother behaved himself as he looked around the room, particularly at the various women there as if he was observing a bountiful platter. The bouquet was split into three and Nerezza sent them flying. The first fell towards Aaryona, which quickly brought up a strange gaze from Eirik. But it brought up some humor from Lucian as he tried to keep from blatantly laughing at the irony. “Way to go, sis.” The young man’s chuckles stifled and nearly choked on his food as Episcia was the next to catch one.

“Poor lad, can’t keep his food down…”, Dante snickered before the third was sent flying. When it reached Lotus, he snickered some more, “Is that wedding bells I hear?”, he teased before it was thrown to Eldora, which made Steele’s face red, but not with anger. “Aww, what’s the matter? I heard you want a whole litter of pups, brother. It would only make sense right?”

Steele gave a death glance towards, demanding on who told him about that while Colden had been watching from afar and was concerned about Crystaline being a part of this. But his mouth hung low, threatening to drop onto the floor as it finally fell into her hands. “Oh, little brother! You make me proud and make an honest woman out of her”, Dante winked before being taken by the collar by Steele, obviously still wanting answers. Colden sighed and headed to Crystaline and placed his hand onto her slender shoulder.

Kaiser shook his head and laughed. “What did I get myself into?”, he said to Nerezza before kissing her hand. “Still worth it though. You are still worth it.” 

Nerezza was laughing as everything unfolded. There were many weddings in the future she was sure. Lily was chuckling as well. “You all caught the bouquets! Even if you threw them!” The Yellow Court was so happy as she hugged Nerezza before wandering off once more.

Lotus slinked over to Dante to save him and Eldora didn’t save him from her Steele as she chuckled. Crystaline was too busy being excited near Colden. She was just happy she caught it even if Eldora had been next to her.

Nerezza smiled at Kaiser and held his hand tightly. “Yes, everything that has led to this has been worth it.” She leaned up and kissed him as she led him out to the dance floor where others had gathered around to hear her sisters play. They were the ones providing entertainment for the evening. They were talented and this was their gift to them as they danced and played. It was so much better than anyone else they could have gotten maybe because it felt more sentimental that her sisters were playing.

Angela went ahead and introduced herself to Kaiser’s family. They knew of Raeguel but she didn’t know if they knew her. Melina pulled Raeguel with her as she wanted to dance and she had yet to see just how good he was aside from the ball they went to.

“You should introduce the twins to Reaver if he is here.” Melina smiled up at Raeguel. “I would like to meet him too.” She stayed by his side as she watched Nerezza and Kaiser. “They also look very happy.”

There didn’t seemed to be a dull moment when it came down to her family. Fortunately enough Kaiser was starting to get used to it all and had been for some time now. The bouquets were tossed and those that were destined to catch them did so, even those that had refused to admit it. By now Steele was ready to strangle Dante, Lucian was still coming to terms with it while trying to catch his breath and Colden merely smiled at Crystaline while hugging her.

Kaiser rose with Nerezza and kissed her back before they headed to the dance floor. The music begun to play and soon the floor was filling as the others came over or were dragged to it. His family were aware of Angela from what they were told of when Raeguel had been Nemesis in the other world. Back there, she wasn't nearly as powerful as she was then and they had sent their son over to help her daughter control her magic. Raeguel watched the couple humbly greet the goddess before he himself was pulled towards the dance floor by Melina.

 “Not sure where he is at the moment. I hadn’t seen him since the ceremony. If he is still around, he’s likely lurking somewhere out of direct sight.” He started to slow dance with her in his arms. “I’ll find him, he probably hasn’t gone far, at least not yet.” As he watched over to Nerezza and Kaiser enjoy their dance, he was reminded that his little girl was growing up. She was wiser beyond her years which he thanked the heavens for. “Aye, I hope that it last forever for them. Love is something that can’t be found everyday and should be cherished like lightning in a bottle.”

Lotus was getting between Steele and Dante. “Eldora come help soothe Steele’s worries.” If Eldora had been a cat there would be a flickering tail to go with the mischevious look on the elder sister’s face.

“No, I prefer to sit back and watch to see if Steele actually strangles Dante,” Eldora mused allowed. Lotus had a stubborn look on her face as she came up behind Eldora and goosed her behind. Eldora jumped very high before retreating behind Steele. “Don’t let her do that again.” She was pointing at Lotus like she was a heathen who in tune had the smug look on her face as she watched Eldora be uncomfortable.

Aaryona was still in shock herself as she moved over to Eirik and looked at the flowers in her hand. “These things are normally never wrong.” The vampire ruler mused as she looked at the pretty golden petals on the flowers. “What do you think?” She wanted to know Eirik’s opinion on it. Her eyes drifted to Lucian and Episcia who were being shy around one another. “Oh, it will be just fine Lucian. Don’t worry about it. If you are happy with Episcia you won’t mind getting married. You are after all the future king.” Aaryona teased her little brother who had basically choked on his food after teasing her. “I don’t mind marrying Eirik.” She elbowed her little brother. “Besides Episcia is a fine woman.”

Melina nodded to Raeguel and leaned up to press her lips against his cheek. They had made sure that she would be able to enjoy the evening uninterrupted by the ritual they were forced to endure if Melina wanted to be out of the temple. “Good, I’ll make sure you keep your word.” She gave Raeguel a smile. “We would know that better than anyone.” She gave him a smile as they spoke of love. Raeguel knew more than Melina but in her short time with Raeguel she had her heart on fire.

Spotting the two out of her golden eyes Nerezza made sure to dance right over to them. “So Papa, when are you going to marry Melina. She’ll make an honest man out of you.” There was that mischievous face that both twins seemed to have when they were up to no good. Melina was bright red now and looked up at Raeguel to combat his daughter.

“I…don’t…see what’s…so funny…”, Dante gasped out as he continued to struggle to keep Steele’s hands away from his throat. Eldora apparently found some humor in his struggle, while Steele continued to try and get ahold of him until he felt her come behind him. Immediately he drop his brother and turned to her. Dante took a few steps back and rubbed at his throat. “Looks like the shoe’s on the other foot, eh?” He teased Lotus a bit. “What’s wrong? Don’t like trying new things?” He would have gone on, but Steele went back after him even more and Colden just watched from afar and shook his head. “Never a dull moment for the Black Court…”, he muttered before turning his attention to Crystaline.

Eirik was puzzled about how a bunch of flowers could predict future unions, especially those that were said to be as nigh correct as Aaryona had suggested. “If that is the case, then I will fight any challenger that wishes to be your mate.” Lucian held it and while he would have laughed at such a claim, he was busy recovering his breath from nearly choking. It wasn’t a thought in his mind at all, not for the time being. In a few years, it would have been possible for him to think of something like that but he wasn’t like his sister- he didn’t want to get married too young. Episcia was surely quiet about it and he stared at Aaryona. “I know that…just have never thought of it.” Heaven knows his mother needed to learn of what just happened, though he wouldn’t be surprised if she already had and just didn’t say anything yet.

“Looks like Angela has a couple of weddings to get ready for the future”, Raeguel said before agreeing with Melina. It was a happy time, and it seemed as though he had seen few and far of them so every time mattered greatly, especially with Melina. Kaiser felt Nerezza leading him over to the couple and for a moment he thought that she was going to request a dance with her father. Sadly though it wasn’t the case and he had to give her a stern look, one that was equally shared to her by her father. “Remember the tale of the nosey cat, Nerezza?”, he asked her. The girl still couldn’t leave well enough alone. Kaiser mouthed off an apology before stirring her back onto the dance floor. “Sorry about that. She certainly didn’t get that mouth from me”, he chuckled, trying to make light of the situation.
