@dragonspeakcr challenged for a starter
The house is bustling with servants as a dragon is spotted overhead. Johnathan already knows who it is when the servant rushes to him to inform him of the guest approaching. He peers over at his granddaughter, “Go get yer brother, girly. He’s got a visitor.” He huffs through a puff of smoke through his pipe.
Isabelle glances up at the sky and rolls her eyes in response but slinks off into the manor to shout orders at the servants who don’t know to keep out of her way. She makes her way to her brother’s room and a slur of Greek can be heard between the pair, definitely bickering before Isabelle’s friend Maddox has to step in and practically drag the brunette away from her brother’s room.
“What a spoiled brat,” She mutters, Maddox’s arm slinging around her shoulder as he pulls her close so she can’t turn back to go after Isaac again.
“Let’s get you a glass of wine, hot shot,” Maddox chuckles as he leads her to the dining room.
“I swear if you start quoting your books at me, I’m throwing it at your head,” She scoffs as they walk off to the dining room and wait for the others to join them.
When Maddox’s eyes land on their guest minutes later he doesn’t change his expression but he does shift slightly in the seat next to Isabelle, his long time friend and occasional hook up. It goes unnoticed by the others but not by her.
Isaac walks in just as their guest does and takes the seat opposite his sister.
“Welcome, welcome, I trust your travels fared you well.” Johnathan greets and it takes everything in Isabelle not to groan as she takes another sip of her wine.
