Nadya was grateful that Malia was able to be distracted from waiting at the door. She was even more so when people became to finally trickle in. Whether they were just there for free food and drinks or to get to know one another was another question entirely. Nadya had her eye on a few of them to ensure nothing got too rowdy. Still, Nadya allowed Malia to handle those that needed telling off. She had encouraged Frost to give that role of Beta to Malia afterall. This was just as good of a practice to stretch her wings in that role as any other. And should the need arise then Nadya was there for back-up.
She was just having Malia help her refresh those drinks when someone collided with her packmate. It wasn't abnormal in a party setting for people to not be paying attention. Her Beta was hardly phased and the man wasn't at all threatening. Nadya quirked a brow at his rather stumbling greeting. Abigail? She had only seen the girl once. Nadya could only assume that there had been talk with Frost on some other occasion to warrant the term pack. "No, we haven't seen her. I'm sure we can find something...stronger in the kitchen. Malia can show you." Her packmate was only too happy to lead Arlo into that kitchen.
Nadya lingered in the living room until a familiar face parted through the crowd. She couldn't help the grin at his outfit. "Well, you certainly look different in clothes." Nadya teased the man. She honestly hadn't seen him in anything else besides his swimming trunks. "I'm surprised to see you here...but I'm glad you came." His lessons with the twins had been a great success and they both were comfortable kicking around on their own with the kickboards. That put Ashton in her well-liked column. Nadya caught Malia's call ever so slightly over the brief lull between songs. "You know Malia?" Nadya smiled warmly but motioned for Ashton to follow her as she led him over to where Malia was.
"Found this cowboy lurking about." Nadya chuckled. "...Abigail?" Nadya glanced around Arlo's waist, seeing the shy girl clinging wholeheartedly to him. "You can come out, you don't have to be afraid here." Nadya returned her attention back to the vampire to give the redhead some space to feel comfortable enough to fully join them. "So, you're her boyfriend then? How long have you two been together?" Though she saw nothing wrong with an interspecies couple, she did wonder how it would effect pack workings if Abigail were truly to join.
