Venessa and Elias decided to make their engagement public by organizing an engagement party to which the entire clan was invited including their opposition. The reason for the party was to make their stand known to everyone in the power struggle going on.
Childish giggles were heard as the door to her room was pushed open, and Venessa's favourite troublemakers came running to the room, followed by a golden blonde woman.
"Mummy, " Asher and Axel called out loud, running to their mother, who was standing in front of a full-length mirror admiring her reflection for the party.
Her nerves were wrecked thinking about the event today; not only was it to make her engagement to Elias public but also to introduce the boys to the clan.
They ran to hug Venessa, who squatted to welcome them with a big hug. Her eyes sparkled as she realized how fast they were growing.
