We enter the lobby of this grand new place. I turn to each of the twins.

"Ladies, I hope you will enjoy being here. Shall we have some drinks?"

"Oh, yes!" both Korrigan and Melusine Venetii say with delighted giggles.

A servant approaches with a tray of filled champagne flutes. I take two and hand one to each of the girls, then take one for myself.

"A toast to the loveliest women here, and how lucky I am they are with me!"

"Cheers!" We gently tap our glasses all together.
