When Verity had confimation that Theo would come see her today she'd all but kicked Montague and Marlowe out of the room and had even requested that Eva not make her frequent visits. She wanted time alone with her best friend and her godson.
She had the elves help her as best as they could to change her into a set of nice but practical robes and her hair was pulled back into a smart french twist. She tried to look peaceful and content in the bed although as soon as Theo saw her she knew he'd sensed more going on.
"I told you I was on bed rest," she said to him, smiling just to see him.
"Oh Theo!" her eyes were caught by Nathaniel and her stomach jumped. "He's gotten so big! You weren't kidding where you? Please, may I see him?" she asked. There was a chair next to the bed and she'd requested a bassonet for Nathaniel as well as a blanket for him to play on if he'd preferred. She wasn't sure just what to expect.
