Apolline was fussing over her eldest daughter while barking out orders to her fellow Veela. Some were helping others mend their dresses so as not to have them fall accidentally. Gabrielle had rushed through the gathering and went immediately to her family. Said family hugged and I saw Apolline look over to me. Her eyes were a mixture of emotions. Of love and worry for her family. But there was a look that would have made me wince, if I wasn’t already planning on it.
