 I offer love and loyalty I expect the same in return
The last month or so had been worrisome. Narcissa and the baby were both doing well and the healer had nothing but positive news whenever she went in for a checkup, which was much more frequent than she’d ever been seen by a healer before in her life. The worries stemmed purely from her mind and perhaps a bit from the calendar. They had been approaching her fifth month of pregnancy and Narcissa had returned to her hermit ways for the past several weeks, expecting the worst to happen at any moment. She didn’t hide away from her husband as she had the year prior, but she was hardly seen in public and spoke with her friends only through the post. As she reached her fifth month, she found the nightmares began, waking up in a pool of sweat and moving the blankets around to inspect her thighs to find the mess between her legs had only been a dream. She could feel her child moving inside of her stomach and she started most days with that anxious worry that persisted throughout the rest of the morning, sometimes well into the day.
The timeline she’d been dreading had come and gone and while this little love was now further along than their Carina had ever been, Narcissa still couldn’t bring herself to feel at ease. The worst could happen at any moment but at the same time they were getting closer and closer to her due date and she had stubbornly refused to purchase anything for a new nursery. Carina’s nursery would remain intact, the door locked, and the furnishings covered to keep the dust away. Cissa couldn’t bear to have another room dedicated to a lost babe so she’d put it off but there was only so much time left to prepare. The healer had warned her and Lucius that it was a possibility the child would come early, not because of any complications they were currently aware of but just as a precaution following the repeated miscarriages they’d experienced. She could sense Lucius was eager to begin planning and with her belly now far too large to hide from the rest of the world, it was now well known among their families and social circle that the Malfoys were expecting a child. She pretended not to see the pitiful looks the other women gave her, knowing they too were waiting for the same misfortune Narcissa feared but the baby continued to grow and their lives together carried on.
She and Lucius had taken Aurora for the night, and the witches had made a day of it shopping. Mostly they were just buying toys and pretty dresses for the nearly seven year old but Aurora had insisted they get a toy for the new baby. The little girl had asked so many questions when it was first explained to her that Narcissa was pregnant – not fat as the child had abruptly remarked when she’d arrived at Malfoy Manor the night before with her Uncle Luci in tow. Questions Cissa didn’t know how to answer without letting on all of the worries and realities of the situation that ought to be kept from a child, so the Malfoys distracted Aurora with fun activities and treats anytime the subject arose.
Lucius was working today and normally would have been the one to take Aurora home to her father but since the man had seen fit to invite his murderous whore to move into his home, Narcissa refused to set foot on the property. She had also remarked to Lucius that they would need more time with Aurora, to ensure that Meadowes didn’t taint her niece in any irreversible way. With Luci unable to take Aurora home and Narcissa not up to keeping the child by herself until the evening, an arrangement was made that she would deliver the girl to her paternal uncle and let Rabastan deal with seeing her home. Aurora was pleased and chatted the entire carriage ride about how fun her Uncle Rabby was. Aurora wanted to run inside unannounced but Narcissa chided her gently, reminding her that a proper witch never barged in to anyone’s home uninvited. They stood in front of the large double doors and waited, Aurora having rung the bell twice and needing to be pulled away in order to keep her from ringing it a third time.

Lilith got word that little Miss Meadowes had officially moved in with Roddy and to say she was displeased was an understatement. Lilith couldn't believe it at first. Surely Rodolphus had lost his senses. There must have been some kind of an explanation as to why Rodolphus Lestrange, heir to the Lestrange company and fortune, would allow a known blood traitor to move in with him and his impressionable young daughter. Rabastan had tried to reassure her that Roddy knew what he was doing, but Lilith just couldn't see how that was the case. How could he possibly be living with a blood traitor? How did he not care about his young daughter? Aurora was nearly seven, she needed guidance down the right path, with her birthday only two weeks away was the other witch going to be there playing mother to the child of them woman she'd killed? That was a whole other side of the terrible decision Roddy had made. Lilith expressed her displeasure to Rabastan, finding herself comfortable with expressing herself around her husband, but it was no good. Rabastan was surprisingly neutral, in fact he was rather imperturbable by the whole thing. How could he not even care? Lilith would see to it that Aurora would have a successful upbringing, she would help out as much as she possibly could to ensure the young girl would blossom into a beautiful young woman.
There came a ringing at the door and Lilith made her way to the front of her home. She'd informed her House Elf that she would be greeting her guests today herself. Rabastan was at work and wouldn't be home for approximately another hour or so but Lilith had been informed that her niece through marriage, the very child whose future was in jeopardy from her father, was coming over for a little visit before heading home. Thank Merlin. The less time she spent around that wretched homewrecker, the better. Even spending time with her Aunt Narcissa was better than being around the influences of that wretched Auror. The doorbell rung once more and Lilith smiled, walking down the stairs, knowing how excited Aurora would be to finally see her aunt Lilith and uncle Rabby. Arriving at the front door Lilith waved her wand, the double doors slowly pulling open as Lilith slipped her wand away. "Aurora!" She smiled, spotting her niece. Bending Lilith reached her arms out to embrace her darling niece in a welcoming cuddle, a fun little greeting they had because after all, she was only a child, "Our darling Princess! Uncle Rabby and I are so excited to have you come play with us."

Large double doors opened of their own accord and Narcissa took a breath. Lilith was a lovely woman, a little stand-offish at times but very respectable and very, very stylish. At one point in time, Cissa would have been overjoyed at the idea of Rabastan marrying the eldest Burke girl. They would have been sisters-in-law of sorts and she could have imagined lovely family dinners together, the Malfoys and both of the Lestrange families, all dining happily with their little darlings off having tea in the kitchen with the servants to watch over them and wash them up afterwards. Bellatrix wouldn’t have cared much for Lilith, but she got on well with Rabastan, and Narcissa and Lilith could have chatted while about Lilith’s magazine while Lucius and Rodolphus talked business. It would have been a fabulous triad but sadly so much had gone wrong in the span of only a few years and now big family dinners together was more a stomach churning idea than a pleasant one. Bella dead at the hands of the woman Rod now lived with, and Narcissa’s familial ties to the Lestranges nearly completely severed save for little Aurora. Cissa needed nothing from the Lestranges in terms of her social standing, she and Lucius were doing splendidly on their own and if it weren’t for her niece she might have cut the wealthy wizards out of her life completely, but here we were.
Aurora ran through the opened doors as her other auntie appeared at the doorway. “Aunt Lili!” Lilith bent for a hug and Aurora ran full force into the witch’s arms, leaving her Aunt Narcissa at the doorstep with her hand now empty. “Can we play faeries?” she asked, in response to her aunt Lilith’s enticing greeting.
Narcissa waited politely for Aurora to greet her aunt, then chimed in as talk of play was beginning. It hadn’t slipped her notice that she’d received not even a glance in the way of greeting but then it was hard to pull focus away from Aurora. She demanded all of it at all times. It was rather exhausting and in Narcissa’s current state it wasn’t something she could very well handle on her own. If her own little one made it to term, Narcissa would have hired help specifically for caring for the child, but no nannies or governesses had been hired as of yet – one more thing Narcissa was refusing to acquire, afraid of the inevitable fallout from her toxic body. “Lucius and I appreciate you looking after Aurora for a while until she’s ready to go home, Lilith. I’m not really in a state to be playing faeries,” she added, her free hand now resting carefully on her stomach. The word 'home' was stressed ever so slightly. Narcissa was too well mannered to say what she was really trying to keep Aurora from and it certainly wasn't the chateau.
“Auntie Cissy is having a baby!” Aurora added loudly, excited by the news that was all too obvious. “I want it to be a girl but Cissy says I have to wait and see.”

Aurora was quite the darling, as she should be. Lilith embraced her niece with a wonderful hug that made Lilith hopeful of children of her own someday. Magic willing, she would conceive and heir for Rabastan any day now, she would love to become a mother to a proper little Lestrange but it would happen, all in good time. She was happy to hold on to her trim figure for a little while longer before she had to bloat like an Erumpent. She'd not had a proper look just yet but Narcissa was appearing rather trim. Rumour had it she was about five months along but Lilith had no reliable leads on Narcissa's condition and she didn't much care. Lilith may have been a little standoffish with a lot of the world because she was simply better than them, but she wasn't one to be cruel for no reason and Narcissa probably had enough on her plate. Lilith was well aware of the loss Narcissa and Lucius experienced the last time the witch was pregnant and Lilith kindly hoped for the pair that this pregnancy made it all the way through. What happened to Narcissa was every witches nightmare. Clearly there was something wrong with her, her whole family really, but it had reached the point where it was no longer something to look down on the witch for, but rather just pity. At least that was how Lilith felt.
"We certainly can, little fae." Lilith smiled at her niece before letting her go and returning to her full height. She straightened out her dress by running her hands along the front of her legs. She swept her right hand over Aurora's forehead, sweeping aside a strand of hair that had loosened during their embrace. "Patience is a virtue, Aurora." Lilith smiled down at her niece and then looked to Narcissa. She did look rather puffy, "It's our pleasure." She stated, because it was indeed. Aurora was quite lovely and the more time she spent with them, the less she was around that wretched woman her father had allowed to invade their home. "Please," Lilith spoke, moving towards the door, "Come in and join us for a spot of tea." She said, "If you have the time." It was a genuine offer, Lilith didn't do that often but when she did the sincerity was crystal clear. Lilith wasn't sure Aurora would want to stick around for tea with two grown ups, but she had plenty to be getting on with. A toy room to indulge in, grounds to play on, horses to visit with. Lilith knew that her house elf Mitzteig, or Mitzy as Aurora called her, would keep Aurora safe and make sure she didn't get into too much trouble.

An invitation for tea had not been expected, but after weeks of hiding away from her friends and a full day spent only with a six year old, the offer brought a genuine smile to Cissa’s face. “That would be lovely, thank you.” Some adult time sounded lovely and although Narcissa’s social isolation as of late had been self-imposed, she wasn’t opposed to distracting herself a little. Lucius wouldn’t be home until much later this evening and the only plans Narcissa had arranged for herself was a nap and perhaps to sit out in the garden a read for a little, so long as the weather obliged. It was nothing that could not be rescheduled.
Despite being on good terms with Lilith Lestrange, or so Narcissa believed, the women had never been very close. In fact, Narcissa had never even been inside Oleander Grove where Lilith and Rabastan now called home. She had visited Rabastan’s home prior to his engagement with Lilith – nothing untoward, just as family. She and Bellatrix, along with their husbands, had attended a house-warming of sorts for Bella’s brother-in-law but the inside of Rabastan’s new home was a mystery to Narcissa and although she was not a naturally nosey person, she had often wondered how the pair might choose to decorate their home. They certainly were not an odd pairing, but prior to their announced engagement Narcissa would not have imagined Rabastan Lestrange marrying Lilith Burke. It was an intriguing invitation in addition to a chance for a reprieve from her social isolation.

Lilith stood aside, welcoming Narcissa into her home. She was most welcome although Lilith could have done without her company, but what exactly was she to do? She was a woman of a certain social standing, she didn't want to appear rude to her company and more than that she wanted to set a good example for her niece. Aurora was certainly in need of some good guidance and Lilith was there to guide with a gentle touch. Whatever Narcissa had been up to during the child's life was unclear, Lilith had hoped Aurora would be somewhat lady-like by this point but she had to the social graces of a four year old, far beneath her social standing. Lilith just hoped the child had the Lestrange intelligence that her husband and brother-in-law possessed and not that of the Black women, although Lilith was certain her hope was going to waste. "You're welcome anytime." She smiled, glad that Narcissa had taken up the offer. They two could talk for a while, allow Aurora to see that her two sides of the family interacted well, and that she in turn would be expected to interact in a lady-like manner some day. The more they could limit that dreadful Meadoweses influence, the better.
Mitzteig was not Lilith's first house elf. She'd gone through a few before she'd found Mitzteig. She was a smart elf, reliable and always anticipated Lilith's needs. She was aware of everything that was going on around the house and so it didn't even occur to Lilith to ask the house elf to put on a spot of tea or prepare a few little afternoon delights for the three ladies. It was the house elf's job to do whatever was needed of her and Lilith preferred to not have to ask, it have such a wonderful illusion of preparedness and good training on Lilith's part, which she thought it was. She might not have gotten such a good house elf if said house elf was not fearful for her life, who knows what sort of house elf Mitzteig would have been if Lilith hadn't of killed the house elves prior to her appointment. Shutting the door behind Narcissa Lilith smiled to her fellow blonde and lead the way through to the lounge of her wonderful and extravagant home, hoping to show off its beauty, white and gold running through the halls and rooms, letting anyone that saw them know just how wealthy Lilith's family were while letting them drown in delectable envy.
