Reunion (2)

"Doctor Avalina, could you please check him first?"

Verina announced as soon as they entered the throne room which had been turned into a makeshift clinic to help the vampires.

Avalina along with more than two dozen healers were looking after the injured, but Verina and Irina both were adamant that Avalina should be the one to check Ashton. Probably because she was a well-known figure when it came to healing. It was also the reason why she had been nicknamed the 'Fertility Goddess'.

"I heard you loud and clear the first time, your highness. Please have him seated somewhere, I'll be with you in a moment."

Avalina was just as nervous to meet her son, as Ashton was to meet his mother. But that didn't excuse her from her duties. That was just one of her character flaws... she had a tendency to work herself to the bone and being a vampire only enabled her further considering she did not require to rest or sleep anymore.
