Next Friday Afternoon

A week had passed where Oscar tried to locate Julian's body with no success. Then, finally on Friday night, he was able to extricate it from the coffin warehouse where Lily and the Heretics had paid someone to hide it a century ago. Oscar had to use a combination of magic and detective skills, but finally, he brought Julian home. Lily would never know that Oscar met up with some old contacts and partied his ass off in the meantime. He had missed being out and about. The other Heretics bored him with their stuffy old Victorian manners. He wanted to be a modern dude.

Lily called Bonnie and left a message. The teenage witch was still at school.

Lily was excited about Julian finally being reunited with the family. She wanted everything to be perfect. She knew that sometimes she got a little sharp with her children and impatient, but it was for their own good.

"Girls, if I have to warn you one more time to stop that bickering, you are getting the brush and I will put your red bottoms in the corner on display for the whole family to see. I will not have you behaving like this when Daddy is home. You know he would be very disappointed," Lily scolded.

"Sorry, Mum," she heard one of the girls mutter remorsefully. Lily turned on her heel and started down the other two until they bowed their heads and apologized. She clapped her hands and ordered them back to their chores. Floors needed polished, the whole house dusted, and everything swept. The boys were tending to the lawn or helping her move furniture.

Lily brushed the dust off her long sleeves, "Maybe we should update our clothing?"

Enzo appeared, "Mother, you wish to go shopping?"

"Yes, son. I think Daddy would probably like us to blend in to this age. Maybe one of the others could cast a cloaking spell and you could take me out for a shopping trip. But only if you promise to behave?" Lily chided.

Enzo had been cursing, spitting, snapping at his siblings, and in general ill-temper this whole week. Yesterday, Lily had dragged him upstairs to his bedroom and put him in a time out in the corner. She got her bottle of castor oil and made him take three doses before she was satisfied that he had learned his lesson. She had never so much as swatted him, but Lily hissed into his ear that he was "this close" to getting his trousers yanks down for a spanking. Enzo's vampire face turned beet red. He had been whipped and beaten in the workhouse in his human life and tortured as an Augustine vampire, but he had never been disciplined with a spanking. It sounded ridiculous to think that Lily thought she could hurt him with this. But it sure would be a blow to his pride, he realized that was the point.

"I'm sorry, Mother. I will shape up," Enzo said in a timid voice. Lily had never yelled at him before and he was ashamed that he had behaved so poorly. He vowed to improve. He could tell the other "children" were jealous of the special place he had in Lily's heart.

Lily wiped his mouth with a towel and pulled him out of the corner.
