Chapter 410: Dreams have come true, Alora
"Really?" Alora’s mood shifted instantly, her smile broadening with delight. The hunger that had gnawed at her moments ago vanished completely, replaced by a surge of pure happiness.
"Yes, Your Highness," Tobias confirmed with a respectful nod. "It may very well explain your current condition. Unlike most vampires, Your Highness rarely feels the thirst for blood. I believe this could be a sign of the changes taking place within your body," he added confidently.
Magnus’s heart raced with excitement, the thrill of becoming a father filling him with an unexpected warmth. "Let’s have Alora examined immediately. Summon the Royal Physician," he ordered.
Tobias hurried off to carry out his command, leaving Magnus to gently guide Alora toward the bedchamber. Once seated on the plush mattress, she began to fidget with her fingers, her mind buzzing with anticipation, uncertainty, and excitement.
The Royal Physician arrived promptly, bowing respectfully to Magnus before beginning his examination. His movements were swift yet precise, ensuring that no detail was overlooked.
"The Queen is on her way," Tobias informed the prince, then quietly exited the chamber. Before leaving, he sent a female servant inside, should Alora require any assistance.
It wasn’t long before Queen Margaret entered, her presence commanding yet graceful. She cast a glance between Magnus and Alora, her expression unreadable but calm. The Royal Physician rose from his seat to greet her. "I will begin the examination shortly, Your Majesty," he said, his tone composed.
Margaret’s gaze softened as it fell on Alora. "You’ll need to change into different attire for the examination," she gently instructed, her eyes shifting to the servant Tobias had sent. "Assist the Princess," she added before turning her attention to Magnus. "Magnus, you should wait outside."
Magnus, however, remained steadfast. "I’ll stay here, Mother. Alora is my wife, and she may need me by her side," he replied in a respectful yet firm tone.
