Wearing a fine suit and a warm smile, the mood seemed to lighten just a bit when Enzo entered the room.
His mother was at the head of the table chatting with Magnus and....and suddenly Enzo understood what was about to happen. This was going to be fucking hilarious in the most tragically awful way ever. Oh gods, what was that woman thinking? She wanted to tell them like this? Enzo's smile widened as he took the seat at the other end of the table. It wasn't a chair he took on a whim - he knew whoever sat there would have the most direct line of sight with the Queen and Enzo suspected he was one of the few (if not only) people at the table who wouldn't be tossing out looks deadly enough to wound even the bitch-queen of Antiva.
[color=#7CD98A]"Greetings, Mother."[/color] His eyes drifted to Magnus before adding, [color=#7CD98A]"I hope our little dinner isn't keeping you away from your duties as Queen. I know things have been especially hard these last few months."[/color] Enzo's tone was cutting, but his eyes were softer...kinder. He didn't want to hurt her...but she had to know this was a monumentally dumb idea.
