Chapter 105: Ignite a fire in me
Alora pulled away the curtain from the window as she looked outside. The sky had darkened and the lightening would travel through the clouds within a few seconds.
"A big storm is coming and both the princes and Griffin haven’t returned yet," Alora murmured. Suddenly the sky thundered loudly, making her jolt in her place. Leaving the edge of the curtain, Alora headed downstairs, wondering if it would be better if she would ask Louis about their whereabouts.
"Does Princess Alora need something?" Louis suddenly appeared from the shadows, startling her momentarily.
"The Princes haven’t returned yet. Do you know where they are? Even Griffin isn’t around," Alora voiced her concern, feeling worried about their absence.
"Your Highness, they will return before the dinnertime," Louis assured her.
"But the storm is coming. Also, I have heard from Prince Magnus about the vampire hunters. They are present in Shadowbrook," Alora opined.
"Rest assured, Your Highness. Nothing will happen to them," Louis said, keeping his eyes low.
The heavy downpour started, followed by lightning and thunder. She became restless and went to the door. Stepping out of it, she stood on the porch, looking for the carriages. Louis remained close to the princess.
Fog started rolling into that place, making the visibility low and even strong winds started circulating, which grew Louis’ concern. "Your Highness, please come inside. I’ll inform you as soon as they return. The weather doesn’t seem good," he urged.
"Louis, let me stay for another ten minutes," Alora humbly requested.
"What if the Princess catches the cold? Prince Magnus will be furious at me," Louis pronounced, causing her to think for a moment. Eventually, Alora agreed to go in and turned around.
