Mary looked much happier than usual that morning, which was an accomplishment in itself. But she was seated next to Reiko, having pulled a chair up next to the Coven Leader at the head of the table, and the petite witch had Pup's head in her lap while the staff served her an entire plate of cream puffs for breakfast.

The Coven Council was not happy with the seating arrangement, as one normally the husbands, who had been brought out for today's meal, would sit arranged around her, but Reiko had moved them to a separate table, while she sat at the main table with Mary beside her and Wolfe along the side of the table to her right.

Reiko tapped her glass to gather everyone's attention. Unnecessarily, as everyone was paying attention to her, both for the seating arrangement and for her sudden change in power levels.
