The Vulnerable Wife

Zaff the royal physician finally arrived and he checked on Elise's condition. The man confirmed Loriel's biggest fear that his wife's body was too weak to carry a baby, just like her mother.

Elise never met her mother because the late queen of Myreen passed away during childbirth. Elise was raised by her grandmother from her father's side.

Loriel had met the old woman. Myrcella Leoralei was still beautiful even though she was already in her seventies.

She looked gentle in appearance, but Loriel could feel how fierce that woman was. Her gaze was so deep that it felt like it could penetrate his soul, and to be honest, he was scared of her. 

Loriel was happy Elise didn't take after her grandmother. She was sweet and gentle on the outside as she was on the inside.

He looked at his wife who was sleeping on her bed after Zaff gave her sleeping potion so she could rest and relieve her pain. Elise's face was pale and she looked so fragile.
