"Sephria is doing well and the changes are slowly taking effect. I did not think that she would change so fast but here we are and she is coping better than I thought that she would." Claude sighs before dropping what he was going to ask.Cedric smiled and nodded his head. "That is good. It will not be long for the full moon to hit. I am also curious if you were able to read the stars."
Sephira popped out from behind Claude and looked at the couple. "The night of the new moon. So two and half weeks from today. Although I do understand why you wanted me to stay home. I am happy that I was able to come here. I trust you all more than you would ever understand. I have nothing but great respect for you guys and I know that you will not steer me in the wrong direction."
"That was why we wanted you to stay off the s.h.i.+p but now that you are here there is nothing that can be done. I hope that you understand just what in the world you are doing, Sephira." Claude looks at her. "Also, disobeying a direct order shows defiance."
"It"s fine Cedric. I am happy that she came and besides I need her and Naomi to help me with the wedding plans. It is not every day that we get such promising news. We will hold the wedding on that day. I drank two vials of memories and now I am feeling kind of tired. I will rest for a while and when I awaken we can all talk and discuss what we would like to do." Yuki was struggling to keep her eyes open as she hovered over his body.
Cedric pulled her down and kissed her forehead. "I will let you rest here and when you are ready I will be in the kitchen with Claude and Sephira. I will not punish her this time because you are correct." He got up and led the others away.
Yuki looked around the room and felt the sleep pull her under. She closed her eyes, not saying anything more.
Naomi closed the curtains in the room and climbed on the bed and snuggled into Yuki"s arms. "I will rest with you. I am still sleepy. I haven"t had a good sleep in a while."
"Mmmmmmm, okay, Nao. I am sorry." Yuki"s voice slowly sounds out as she holds Naomi in her arms.
Naomi smiled and hugged Yuki gently, "you saved my life. There is nothing to be sorry for. I am happy that we are together. Thank you for everything." She closed her eyes and went back to sleep
Sephira and Claude walked away to the kitchen. "I was not expecting her to be as sound of mind as she is but it is good that she is." Claude turned and looked at Cedric.
"I know what you mean. I was very shocked when I saw her as well." Cedric sat down at the table and rested his head on his arms.
"We need to discuss what is needed for the ceremony and who is coming." Claude pulled out the chair for Sephira and sat down after she was settled.
"Thank you, Hun." Sephira blushed and sat down.
"The list is going to be small. Only those that are somewhat involved with us now. Everyone on the s.h.i.+p, Rex, Micheal, Emma, and Janet are the only ones that I can think of right now. I will inform you if I think of more." Cedric still had his head down.
"Okay, that is a good start. I am surprised that you are including Emma. You just met the girl." Claude nods at all the names.
"Oh, the sweet little untrained witch at the amus.e.m.e.nt park. I am happy to see her again. I think she will enjoy this." Sephira clapped her hands together.
"She is going to be my student. It is best that she stays involved with the secrets of the night world." Cedric waved his hand and his phone flew from the couch to his hand. "I will make a few more phone calls. I think that Yuki is going to enjoy herself."
"Enjoy killing is more like it." Claude laughs even as Cedric glares at him.
Cedric starts to scroll through the numbers and calls the next girl. The phone rings for a moment.
"Good morning, Sir. it is early for you to be calling me." The girl sounded happy on the other line.
"Good morning to you, Alice. I would like to meet up on Thursday if that would work for you?" Cedric asks and waits to see what she said.
"Thursday at noon okay with you? I have a bit of a busy morning and that is the only time I have available." Alice pulls out her schedule and writes in Cedric"s name.
"Yes, that will work. Good luck and see you then." Before she could reply Cedric hung up the phone. He went to the next number. The girl picked up right away.
"If it isn"t the most handsome man in the world. What do I owe the pleasure of your call?" The girl held onto the hem of her dress while waiting for him to call her over.
"Come over on Friday in the morning but not tomorrow. The next Friday." Cedric makes his request and pulls the phone away from his ear.
She starts squealing happily. "I have been waiting for you to call me. I will be there in my very best. Let us have the time of our lives."
Cedric grunts and hangs up the call and starts on the next girl. He hears a click of the phone and says, "Next Sat.u.r.day morning my place."
"Mmmmmmmmm, okay. I will enjoy this. I cannot wait. No one is better than you." The girl on the line smiles and holds out her hand.
"See you then." Cedric closes his phone and looks at the two. "I"m not even at the halfway point."
