"Evie!" she called out as she began to run towards her, but she immediately paused in her tracks when she realized that Evie was not alone.
Quickly, she bowed her head. "Your Majesty," she greeted, ashamed that she had called Evie using her nickname in an impulse.
"Vera," Evie approached her immediately.
Evie then grabbed Vera's hand before she looked behind her again. To her queen mother who was still standing there, still as a statue as her gaze was fixed only on Vera.
Queen Beatrice had not answered them when she and Gav asked her what was wrong. The Queen just looked at Vera with that one same expression. The one that look like she had just seen a ghost.
"Come Vera, I will introduce you to them." Evie smiled before she gently pulled Vera alongside her and then brought her before Queen Beatrice.
