Dorea smiled gently as she listened to the melody Corvus played as his fingers danced elegantly across the piano. She sat on a love seat near him, delicately twirling her wine glass in her hand staring at the black liquid that whirled around the glass.

"You said your sister would be arriving tomorrow?" Corvus queried as he looked up from the piano, his fingers still dancing along its keys

Dorea gazed at him lovingly before she spoke "Yes," She confirmed, "she should arrive around noon."

"I see." Corvus nodded "That is good, you have not seen her in a long while have you." Corvus stated

"A little under a decade." Dorea nodded "It has been a long time." she gave a sad sigh

"It'll be nice to have her around again." Dorea added with a smile

"Yes, and it will be nice to finally meet one of the most formidable witches our family has ever produced." Corvus said in a soft manner

Dorea chuckled lightly "And I wonder what she will think of you?" Dorea questioned, "The most formidable witch of the family meets the most formidable wizard, I can't wait to see what she thinks."

 "You mentioned once that she has a vast information network." Corvus commented, "Perhaps I shall have her tutor Pansy in the future to help her once she leaves Hogwarts."

"Pansy?" Dorea questioned

Corvus nodded "Pansy Parkinson, she is a member of my court and the person I have allocated to create an information network within Hogwarts."

"And I suppose that you have plenty of other girls in your court ready to do whatever it is you ask of them." Dorea spoke

Corvus chuckled "Jealous?" he smirked lightly

"Perhaps." Dorea muttered

Corvus stood from his seat, waving his hand at the piano as he did so, prompting it to continue the melody despite him no longer playing. He then walked over to Dorea and took her glass of wine and placed it on the table next to her, he then gently took her hand and pulled her to her feet.

"You need not be jealous Dorea," Corvus spoke in his usual soft tone "we will be together for eternity, not even death can part us." Corvus whispered into her ear causing her to shiver in delight

"Now," Corvus said as he withdrew his head from her ear "would you care for a dance?"

A loving smile broke out onto Dorea's face as she nodded in delight
