Eward heard a scuffle and out of meagre interest he turned his head to look for the source. There was Katherine, obviously having seen him and trying now to disappear from his view but it did not work. If he were in a brighter mood he would have found it funny. As it was he found it all the more depressing.
"I am not going to bite you, you know," he said in a bored tone, picking up another drink and sipping it lightly this time. Now Katherine was here he would have to maintain a level head.
