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."

This evening was supposed to be a lovely event but Lilith couldn’t help but feel as though people were trying to step all over her. She wasn’t the sort to get bent out of shape over it all, no, no, that would not be becoming of a woman of her social status. Lilith had hoped to enjoy the evening and she had for parts of it. She and Rabastan had spent time with her parents and his, they’d mingled with a few of the older faces in the crowd before mixing with her sisters and brothers. That had been the lovely part of the evening, she enjoyed seeing her family and she didn’t spend nearly enough time with them. Lucian especially now that he was a husband and soon to be father. His bride was not handling pregnancy well, she looked all bloated and horrendous but Lilith had complimented her, something she only did for her brother’s sake. She loved Lucian greatly and there was not going to be any issues with his bride from her. Not to his face at least. She could of course make complaints to her sisters with regards to their new sister in law, although the pairs first wedding anniversary would soon be approaching.

The wonderful evening had peaked when Lilith had been mentioned in the brief speech by Adolph Lestrange, She was officially one of the Lestranges. Marriage was one thing but being accepted into a family was a whole other. Adolph could quite easily have not brought her to light at all, he could have quite easily just kept his guests happy by giving thanks for the presence but no, he had decided to go that step farther. It was a shame that the evening had taken a turn from there. Her husband was drunk, her brother in law drunk and a wretched human being that saw fit to bring a blood traitor to the party as his date and what was more, the filthy little witch dared to open her mouth and insinuate all manner of things about Lilith and Rabastan’s personal lives. She was out of place speaking about such things, far out of place and after Lilith had taken the high ground and simply walked away, she hoped her husband had said something to his brother and his inappropriate date. Rodolphus Lestrange was supposed to be respected. How in the Heavens was he going to keep the respect he had earned but having a murdering whore on his arm. Oh yes, everyone had heard about that. Her name may not have hit the headlines but everyone knew that Miss Meadowes had been the one to kill Rodolphus’ wife. How was someone such as that woman, so willing to walk around in front of these people at this kind of party? Lilith was not much a fan of Bellatrix, now her sisters, but for Merlin’s sake Narcissa was here tonight and both Rabastan and Rodolphus were supposed to be close friends with the man. How did they expect him to feel tonight? He would have to deal with his wife seeing her sister’s killer. It was most unsavoury and Lilith could not understand how such a circus was being allowed. There was the inability to say ‘no’ to your child and then there was whatever in the name of Merlin that the Lestranges had going on. They just could not nor would not say ‘no’ to their first born child. Well at least Lilith had had the sense to have Rabastan deal with the wedding invites with his brother, insisting that his whore plaything not be in attendance on their special day. Merlin only knew what sort of stunt she might have performed. Lilith knew for certain that she was pleased to have a filth-free day on her wedding.

Certain that the evening was positively ruined, Lilith continued walking in the hopes that she might find someone actually worth of talking to. Kingston and his wife Odette were not too far off and LIlith was rather fond of the pair. They were a beautiful couple and had adapted so well to their society. Kingston’s family had been nothing but common purebloods but then he had married Odette Lestrange and had made waves. He had married a Lestrange! It was strange to think that she was now related to those people yet at the same time it was rather lovely. Lilith liked the way that Odette held herself, the way she spoke was beautiful, both in French and English Odette was flawless and her accents just beautiful to listen to. They would be a lovely couple to talk with but before Lilith could so much as make eye contact with the happy couple, she felt a hand around her waist. She gasped a little and then looked to see her husband. He had decided to side with her - a wise move. Lilith straightened herself a little more as her husband complimented her. He was very lucky indeed to have a wife such as she. Wife. That was never going to grow old. “Such a vulgar creature,” She complained and then took a sip of her drink, “Why does he insist on making a scene by bringing her along?” Lilith wondered if he was just pushing his boundaries, trying to see what he could get away with. Miss Meadowes had not been sent away with her tail between her legs so clearly he could get away with anything he wanted. He had no limitations unlike the rest of them. Lilith doubted Rabastan could get away with as much as his brother, but then again she found comfort in knowing that Rabastan would never try to be so ridiculous as his brother. Her husband was a fine, upstanding man that she was grateful to be married to. There were all kind of unhappy unions out there, arranged marriages that were sadly not as beneficial as first thought, however her marriage to Rabastan was perfect thus far and soon enough they would fall pregnant with an heir for her husband while Rodolphus would still be the older brother that hung around with whores, had no wife, and only a daughter, no heir whatsoever.

Lilith was not going to arrive on time for her own bachelorette party. She was going to be fashionably late and draw the attention of everyone in the room upon her arrival. She intended to let loose tonight. She was soon to be Mrs Lestrange and so to hell with formalities for one night. Tonight she would have her sisters, her closet friends and work colleagues she trusted, or at least work colleagues she trusted more than others. There were a few extra clingers that would be in attendance, such as her own sister-in-law, but Lilith was fine with that for a change. She wasn't a fan of Clementine but the woman was pregnant with Lilith's brother's child, she could hardly exclude her. With any luck she'd give in early and head home. She was becoming rather large and her due date wasn't that far off. She could waddle about, eat all the food, socialise with a few people and then be off home where she'd probably stuff herself sorry and go to bed. It was laughable. If that wasn't her little niece or nephew then Lilith would talk ill of the woman, however the woman that carried the little Burke, heir to their family, deserved an ounce of respect and another for being the wife of her brother, but that would be all she got from Lilith.

Ready for her night of fun, Lilith arrived in her shimmering black and gold gown, ready to be the star of the night. She had her elf go on ahead to inform the staff she was there as she stepped out of her coach. As she approached the doors they were opened for her by magic. She spotted her face almost immediately and she approved. Her lips pouted in an amused way as she took in the sight of the Ambrosia Lounge, judging everything, very pleased with what she was seeing. Her sisters had done well, even better was as she walked towards her party a waiter came with a cocktail on a try. She picked it up, took a sip, enjoying the sweet pink drink that was poured with a heavy hand. The alcohol hit hard and Lilith raised her drink and her free arm into the air, shrugging off her cloak that went flying to the wall, hanging up somewhere behind the maitre d's desk and off to the side. "The bride has arrived!" She called, satisfied that everyone that was coming had arrived before her and could all bask in her appearance and cheer her on for whatever reason there would be beyond being excited to see her and for her upcoming nuptials.

Outfit: The Future Mrs Lestrange

What a month it had been. From their wedding rehearsal to her hens night, to her wedding to her honeymoon. Lilith had been having a splendid time and absolutely everything was going perfectly for the new Mrs Lestrange. She had been given a most wondrous wedding gift from her now brother in law which was that magazine where she worked. It was quite incredible. She naturally wondered how much Rodolphus had paid to buy the magazine. She'd thought of doing it before but decided it was best if she wait until she was married to make such a bold move on a company. It wasn't that she was against women in the workplace, far from it, it was excellent for a woman to have a hobby so long as she put her husband and family first, just as the man should do, only the men put the family first by working hard, bringing home the wage and supporting the lifestyle a woman ought be kept in.

The Lestrange name was a wealthy one and while Lilith had been by no means unfortunate or poor in her upbringing, the Lestrange side of life was still very different again. While the Burkes were still one of the wealthier wizarding families, the Lestranges were a whole different league and Lilith felt more privileged than she'd ever done before. She was part of a family that was considered royalty in the right circles and she fully intended to enjoy her new found status. Rabastan was proving to be a decent husband thus far, but as she was told before they were married, they would experience what was known as a 'honeymoon' phase that would last for approximately a year and then that would be different. They would talk less, be involved with one another less. With any luck Lilith would have given him a son by then or be expecting one in the very least. She was realistic with her expectations about her marriage, she didn’t want to be one of those women that spent their marriage wishing for their husbands to love them. She knew that so long as she and Rabastan continued to get on well then someday, they might just fall in love, but this was an arranged marriage, an agreement they both made and would see through to their dying day. Love was a childish notion but perhaps in the back of her mind - and her heart - she hoped she might find it someday with Rabastan. He was certainly pure and gentlemanly enough for her likings.

Gliding around the dancefloor effortlessly in her husband’s arms Lilith was thoroughly enjoying her time this evening. Her new father’s speech was wonderful and she enjoyed the spotlight it momentarily shon on her. She was a Lestrange. Lilith Lestrange and she was a part of this now. She stood by her husband’s side until it was time to dance once more. She had a couple of little dances with Aurora, spinning and twirling her niece. She wore the special dress that Lilith had brought her especially for the evening but while the evening was most spectacular, there was one part that was dampening the whole night.

Aurora was smitten with the woman Lilith had refused to allow at her wedding. The young child seemed to adore Miss Meadowes just as much as she did LIlith or even Narcissa. It was absurd that Rodolphus would allow his child to even lay eyes upon the woman, let alone interact with her in the way she did. Lilith had made it clear to Rabastan already that she was not happy with Miss Meadowes being there but there was little they could do. It was Rabastan’s parents party and as such they were the only ones that could have a guest ejected and that didn’t seem to be happening.

Sweet little Aurora made her way to bed, saying goodnight like a perfect young lady. Lilith smiled lovingly at her niece and then waved a little goodbye as she trotted off. SHe may not have a mother but she would most certainly benefit from having a proper aunt in her life now, not one that was a withering mess, losing child after child, letting her husband down month after month. The woman was attractive but there was no point in being good looking if you couldn’t do your job as a wife. Lilith hoped she would not have the same issues as Narcissa, but Narcissa came from stock that would marry their cousins. Some things were just going too far. It honestly tainted reputations, and the idea that Rodolphus had been married to one of those … people, was absurd.

The party started to divide, as was inevitable. Lilith stayed by her husband’s side but was still not impressed that so many were just so comfortable with trash being at the party this year. Naturally Parkinson had gravitated towards Meadowes. Her family were always the lower end of the Sacred 28 ladder but with what the family had gone through in recent years, they were even lower than low. They were barely holding on. Why Fin continued to spend time with her was unfathomable. She was pregnant and while Fin claimed it wasn’t his, the Avery name was starting to be dragged through the mud. Fin’s association with her was going to be his undoing. He wasn’t playing the part of a proper pureblooded gentleman, he was playing the part of a rebellious teen, despite being in his twenties. If he wanted to be taken seriously then he truly needed to rethink his ways. He was a nightclub owner. He was possibly the father of a bastard child. He was seen with all manner of women but there was no one consistent in his life. No one but Miss Parkinson that was. He was on a slippery slope, Parkinson was pulling him down and there wasn’t a whole lot her second cousin could do to make up his reputation. Marriage and an heir, a proper business and being rid of Parkinson would all set him on the right path, but this was Fin she was thinking of. The Chudleigh Cannons had more chance of winning the championship than of Fin doing what he ought to in order to bring his family name back up to par.

Lilith knew things with Rabastan would become more comfortable. Their engagement was a drawn out process so as to allow her brother time to marry and settle into his new role as dutiful husband. She didn't want her wedding to overshadow her brothers and so she'd requested a date in the winter. Rabastan had agreed and it was set for December. That was plenty of time for their family to settle and fully focus on her wedding. The Burke-Lestrange wedding was to be the wedding of the year, it was only fair to allow Loosh and Clementine their little time in the sun before being outdone. Sure there would be other weddings in-between, Summer was wedding season after all, but no one would out-do either wedding, Lilith was certain of it.

There wasn't anything for Lilith to say. She just kept to her coy little smile and figured she'd let Rabastan get to know her more playful side, after all she wasn't exactly forth coming with her sense of humour and nor was she going to change just for him. Lilith liked to be proper and as such she'd made sure to be the perfect pureblooded daughter which had worked out stupendously. She was engaged to Rabastan Lestrange, the most eligible bachelor around, and it was all thanks to her lessons on etiquette and manners.

The idea of Sybil spilling something on herself was not far fetched. She seemed so very new to money and it was expected by Lilith that she didn't have all the etiquettes a lady such as herself had been raised with. She undoubtedly thought she was fine as she was, believed herself to be passing through high society withe awe, but it was not so. Those born to high society could see through any imposter, Minister or not, Sybil was no exception. "I'm sure you enjoyed yourself far more than you're letting on." She smirked shifting a little closer to Rabastan, moving closer and closer as their conversation went on, sipping occasionally at her drink before her house elf, Mitzteig, announced that dinner was ready.

The idea of being related to a Nott was not a pleasant one to Lilith. The Nott sisters were both far too chummy with just about everyone they came across. They were pureblooded with some of the finest lines dating far back but they socialised with anyone from any bloodline and did it with a smile on their faces. Lilith glanced down the table and looked at the trio sat there. Fin, Euphadora and Evangeline. Lilith was disappointed with Finley that he would socialise with those two but no matter what was said he always kept that Parkinson trash close by. Her family's reputation was toxic and he was a fool. If she ended up pregnant with his child his father would would potentially disown him or kill Euphadora. That was somewhat of a silver lining on the dark cloud hanging over Finley. "Oh, come now, Rabastan," She said softly, looking from her fiancé to her future brother in law with a cordial smile, "don't mock the unfortunate." She stayed so very proper as she spoke but confident that Rodolphus would know that it was but a light tease at his expense, he was her former employee and actually he knew her better than Rabastan, in so very many ways.

Enjoying the light conversation Lilith noticed as a couple, one of the last to arrive, walked the length of the table. Her heart skipped a minor little beat as Julian walked with some child hanging from him. Lilith tried not to look and instead paid attention to Rodolphus asking about Knight and Humbert. The man was somewhat familiar to Lilith. She recalled him helping her during her first year of Hogwarts. Damn. He'd been handsome then and he'd only become more refined since.

The evening carried on and Lilith stayed quiet for most of it. Conversation was held but Lilith was more of a listener. She heard the words the Minister was saying but was not interested in her whole act. She kept her focus mainly on those around her but stole a glance down the table to where Julian sat. At one point their eyes locked and Julian smiled. She couldn't help but smile back but she kept it pretty standard. She went back to her conversations with the higher ended of the table where only the elite sat, a clear divide at the table, and it wasn't until Rodolphus left that Lilith reached a hand under the table and rubbed it over the top of Rabastan's thigh for support. With Rodolphus gone the conversation with Minister Galanis was going to fall to him and the few others around them and Lilith couldn't imagine it would be all that fun for him conversing with his boss, but despite his ministerial position he was a Lestrange and everyone wanted to suck up to a Lestrange.
