Starfire had some difficulty stifling his laugher when Isobel nearly choked on the moonshine. Most people had a hard time getting used to the strong liquor that packed a whale of a kick. "This whiskey even affects Ravin," he told the woman. "It's probably the only thing that can get him drunk in fact since he's worked up a definite immunity to that ale he drinks all the time."
He swiped the jug from Isobel's hand then set it on the ground before pulling her into his arms and taking her for a spin around the dance area. "My brother looks much happier now than he did the last time I saw him and I have the feeling that you are the reason for that," he told her as they dodged the numerous couples that danced around them. "He had fallen into a deep depression after his breakup with Kyri, and our mother was deeply worried."
A grin spread across his lips when he spotted his younger brother Longbow staring at him with a raised brow. "I think it's time for you to meet more of the family." Quickly, he spun Isobel away from him and she ended up in Longbow's arms.
The good-looking young rover held her close while gazing into her eyes. "My brother Ravin has exquisite taste in women!" he said with a smile.
"Speaking of your brother…"
At the sound of Ravin's voice, Longbow released Isobel and turned to face the thief, who stood nearby with Minnow. Before either could say another word, the very rotund woman made her way to Isobel and gave her a bone-crushing hug. "Ravin has told me about you," Minnow said, once she released Isobel.
She tossed a glance at her three sons who were grinning from ear to ear then took Isobel by the arm and led her away from the men to a nearby tent. Inside sat two young girls who looked up and smiled. "I'm Butterfly and that's Cricket," one said. "You must be Ravin's new girlfriend."
"Hush, and bring Isobel some tea," Minnow told her daughters before beckoning the raven haired beauty to sit upon one of the huge pillows that lined the tent floor. Once Isobel was seated, the matriarch of the Rover tribe eased her huge body down onto a pillow across from her. A moment later, Cricket handed out mugs of Peppermint tea, then both girls plopped down on either side of Isobel.
"Tell us all about yourself, Isobel," Minnow said, after taking a sip from her mug. The three rover women smiled as they stared at her, anxiously waiting for her to speak.
