Sick Martha

Drayce returned to the tower and found Seren walking in the garden, observing the beautiful winter flowers in full bloom. 

"Dray, you're back! What did you and King Armen talk about?" Seren asked the moment she saw him, betraying the fact that she had been impatiently waiting for him to return all along. 

"About your coming birthday."

Seren's forehead creased. "What about it?"

Drayce explained everything to her as there was no point in hiding the truth from her. 

"The day of my birth…" she spoke, seemingly unhappy about her situation. "I hope the day of my birth won't cause any troubles if it is that important."

Seeing her look downcast, Drayce attempted to change her mood. "There is another thing. I also got to know where your nanny is."

"You did? Where is she? I want to meet her," Seren said immediately, her purple eyes shining. 

"Want to go right away?" Drayce asked with a grin. 

"Yes. Please take me to her."
