"It will be all right, Lună Mea. They all know who you are, so I am sure they will open you with open arms." Alcina said, her arms linked through mine, our bodies close, and walking down the hall to the Main Hall.

Mamă and our girl were following behind us, talking about their hobbies which Mamă seemed to be interested in. That made me happy. To hear them talking excitedly and getting along. It warmed my heart.

But...

Even with Alcina's words, I was still a nervous wreck as we got closer and closer to the Main Hall. Mamă said she had used her crows to inform the other Lords to be present and that an announcement will be made there.

If they weren't stupid, like Karl, then I'm sure they knew what the hell it would be about.

I literally grew wings and had an eyeball fly into my head...

"It's going to be okay father!" Daniela said, now on my right side. "And even if someone does say something I'm sure you can kick their ass!"

"Daniela!" Alcina gasped.

"What? Father can!" Daniela whined.

"I know your father can, but I was talking about your foul language..." Alcina sighed.

Daniela had already gone back to talking with her sister and Mamă.

I chuckled and felt a little more relaxed after that.

Eventually all of us reached the Main Hall and the four Lords were standing all with different expressions on their faces.

Donna...

Well, I couldn't tell how she looked because of the veil, but Angie looked excited. She was bouncing around in Donna's arms and being animated which was a good thing I guess. Donna looked very put together and I was happy that the woman was doing well. After that whole incident with Angie, I felt a little more connected to Donna because of our shared experience with abuse and trauma. She had visited a couple more times since then and we had talked at length, even though it was hard, about what we both went through.

I don't think there was a better person for Bela and I knew if something happened that Bela would treat the woman with the utmost respect she deserved.

Salvatore wore a smile on his face and stood still.

I enjoyed talking with the man and thought he was a very respectful person from the few minutes we had talked. He seemed to have gotten the shit end of the day, but tried his very best to not let that get him down. I felt sorry for him and hoped he would get the happiness he deserved sometime in the future.

And Karl...

Karl wore a frown on that ugly ass face of his, but he tried to smile when he saw the girls. That was the one thing I didn't hate about the dog. He was good to our girls, so that made me hate him just a little less. He stood there with his hammer gripped in his hands, no cigar this time, and looking a little more put together. I could tell that he bathed and didn't stink of grease, but had a wet dog smell now.

Karl went to open his mouth, Mamă cut him off.

"Thank you for answering my summons. I have a very special announcement to make in light of recent events. Some of you may have already guessed as to what this announcement may be and I will confirm your suspicions. As you all know the incident with Alcina's mate Andrada was a peculiar one, but shed some light on some truths that have been hidden since her arrival here in Castle Dimitrescu" Mamă said, voice calm and collected. "Andrada here is the one thing I have been working towards. She is the fruit of my labor and the light of my life. I can proudly say to you all that Andrada Eva Vârcolac is... my daughter."
