"Alessandra!" Hazel's eyes lit up when she spotted the woman she had been missing dearly. When she heard the news from Tobias that Alessandra was also pregnant, she wanted to meet with Alessandra to congratulate her, but she was told by the palace doctor not to move around too much. She had to be extra careful not to lose the child she was finally blessed with.
"Queen Hazel," Alessandra curtsied, smiling along with Hazel.
"What was with that greeting? I told you to be normal when it is just us," Hazel said, hugging Alessandra. "Should we bump each other? Make the children acquainted with each other before they are out. They'll be good friends in the future I hope."
