(Bitter)
Walburga wakes up and glances at the clock. It's after seven in the morning. She is late getting up today. She wonders why the children haven't come to wake her before she is ready to get up like they usually do, and what mischief they must be getting into...
But then she remembers that she does not live at her brother's house anymore. After the birth of their third daughter, Cygnus and Druella have given up on having an heir and are devoting themselves to raising their daughters.
It's strange being back in her parents' household, having nothing to do with her time. No little voices call her name, no sticky little hands clutch onto her skirts, no plush toy unicorns are shoved into her face... She misses her nieces more than she cares to admit.
It has been her dream since she was a child to make a respectable marriage and raise pretty pureblood children. She got a brief taste of what that life could be like, but her prospects for remarriage are slim, considering that the only person her father could convince to take her the first time around was a man who'd been desperate for someone to nurse him on his deathbed...
She now spends her days sleeping late, attempting to banish her loneliness with romance novels and chocolate, and trying not to be too bitter over the news that Orion's wife is pregnant.
