Narcissa was astonished as she pulled the necklace from it's wrapping. It was breath taking. She had all sorts of baubles and trinkets to choose from, but this was probably one of the best pieces to her collection now. It was too fancy for every day wear and she was upset that there would be no more balls in the near future for her to show it off. Still, she held it up and turned to him, a smile on her face. "What do you think?" she asked. Before she could get an answer she jumped off of the desk and hurried over to a looking glass set on a back counter. It looked stunning. The emeralds had a great luster to them and the details were amazing.
She turned back to Lucius and gave him a genuine smile. While there was still a little bit of heat from what had happened, she was beginning to hope once more, despite her better judgement. "I love it," she said, walking back over and setting the necklace back into the wrapping. "It's so beautiful, I cannot wait to find a good occasion to wear it to." She tucked it back away and looked up at Lucius, allowing herself to think about the implications of the gift. It was certainly not an inexpensive gift, surely he meant it in a form of forgiveness? But could she forgive him for what he had done? She certainly didn't want to give the gift back.
She looked from him to the necklace and back again. "I cannot forgive you Lucius," she said slowly, not wanting to anger him after such a lovely gift. "Even with this wonderful gift you've given me. This has to do with honour to my family." Surely he would understand that. She looked up at him again, her eyes almost pleading. "You cannot tell me what it was for? Or if it was for business or...pleasure?" She shuddered to think it was the later.
