Chapter 376

After dinner, Willow refused the Dixon family's earnest pleas to stay, returning to the Fisher family house with Ivy and Jason. Facing Niko's teary-eyed pleading look, Willow could only promise that after Emma's wedding, he would be allowed to take her around the capital city. After much coaxing, Niko reluctantly waved goodbye to Willow. The trip back was again made with Severus driving. The two little ones had played all day, not even taking their afternoon naps, and were now leaning against Willow, snoring lightly. When they reached their destination, Willow didn't wake them. Instead, she and Severus each carried one of them into the Fisher's house. "Sister-in-law, I'll head back for now. We’ll see each other at the wedding the day after." Emma and Dylan's wedding was scheduled for the day after. "Wait a moment." Willow stopped Severus, handing him a velvet box. "Thank you for this, but I don't need it." Severus recognized this box. He'd given it to Willow back in Five Gate Village.
