Susanne sat in the study, her study, behind the desk. It was quiet, for the time being, which for her meant it was time to work. She'd discovered that there was more to their family, and leading a coven then it might've seemed, a good reason for her mother to give up the job, she supposed. At the moment she was pouring over about a hundred pages of land deeds. Their home was on a nicely sized plot of land, but the Le'Magie family had been buying up land for a long time. Most of it just meant that they had a whole lot of stakes in swamp-land, but there was some that was actually worthwhile.<br/><br/>She sighed, putting down her pen, and reaching up to stroke her temples. She could do the work, she was even happy to, but it was times like these, especially over the last week, that she ached to get out and stretch her arms, and her magic.<br/><br/>She could hear the shower running, knowing it was her mother. She was still wearing the red silk robe with black trim that she'd worn to bed, not yet having had her own shower. She stood up, walking back to the study door, and pushing in the chair from the desk with a wave of her hand. She made her way upstairs, walking barefoot with her short hair still a mess, she felt like hell, and was perfectly willing to eject her mother from the shower, if she went on too long.
