2 weeks later.

Lilith was currently getting ready for the ball, pinning up her black curls, she closed her eyes, letting go of the pins. Instead of falling, they moved around her hair plopping itself where required.

Φαίνεσαι όμορφη

Lilith smiled as she understood what the voice had just said. You look beautiful.

Lilith and Mara had been learning Greek over the past two weeks, Lilith had completely forgotten to visit Darci but she knew she would see her at the ball.

The sound of whispers caused her eyes to open, she saw a tiny little messenger fairy.

"Hello, there little one, what's your name?" The messenger fairy bowed her head, making her pink hair fall against her cheeks.

Fairies were sweet little creatures that helped, Goddess and Gods, there was a fairy for everything.

A messenger fairy is used by the royal families, the fairy could also make portals to make travelling easier.

"My name is Beatrice, Queen Lilith, I'm here to escort you to the ball and I have a message tor you from Councillor Aaron; since the God Nicholas has invited everyone to his daughter's crowning ball, the meeting will be held there."

"Very well, I just need to add one more thing." She looked at her head from the mirror and her crown appeared and she took up her gift for the young goddess, Victoria.

"This way my Lady." The fairy stretched her little hands out, making a gold portal appear.

Lilith stepped through, her ears went deff for a second before she arrived at her destination.

Every eye was on her, mostly the wolves, they bowed showing their respects.

Before she could look around, Nicholas and his wife Mariana interrupted her.

"Lilith, I didn't think you would make it." She sent them a smile.

"I couldn't decline your invitation, that would very rude of me, and I bought a present for your daughter."

"Beatrice, please put Lilith's gift with the others." The small fairy nodded using her magic, she took Lilith's gift from her hands.

"It was nice meeting you, my lady." Lilith gave her a soft smile.

"It was nice meeting you too, Beatrice." She watched as Beatrice flew away into the crowd.

Lilith turned back to Nicholas and Mariana with a faint smile.

"How about we introduce you to some of the guests, preferably the males, dear you wouldn't mind if I left for a moment would you?" Mariana asked her husband.

"As much as I want you to stay, you can go." He kissed her cheek, making her smile, showing her dimples.

"Lilith." He said with a slight nod, before walking away.

"Ok let-" Before Mariana could finish her sentence she was interrupted by a familiar person.

"Goddess Lilith, it's been a while." Turning around she saw Antonia, she was her best friend.

"Why so formal Antonia?" That's when Lilith looked over to her side, only to see Antonia's parents.

"Goddess Lilith, you look stunning." Antonia's mother said, Ith a tight smile, she nodded.

"Thank you, Beta Cindy, but if you will excuse me, Lady Mariana was about to introduce me to some of the many guests," Lilith said to Antonia's father but once again he stopped her.

"You wouldn't mind if my daughter, Antonia went with you, Lady Mariana." She shook her head.

"No, Beta William. It would be a pleasure."

"Great, excuse us." William and his wife walked off.

"Let me introduce myself." Antonia started. "My name is Antonia Grace, it's nice to meet you..." She trailed off.

"Mariana, Mariana White." Antonia's face lit up with realisation.

"This is your daughter's party. I'm sorry I should have known I was you-" she waved her hand dismissively.

"It's ok, now ladies, how about I introduce you to some of the guests."

"Where should we start?" Antonia asked.
