Chapter 315 - Foolish Girl (1) (1/2)
(Regaleon's POV)
Alicia and I got back to our room swiftly with Tempest's help. I carried my wife in my arms rather carefully and laid her down on the bed. I was worried of the pain she just had experienced.
”How are you feeling, my love?” I asked in a worried tone.
”I am fine, my love.” Alicia replied with a smile. ”Maybe, it was just a passing pain.”
”We cannot let such a thing pass by.” I said. ”What if it was something serious?”
”Oh, Leon. You worry too much.” Alicia giggled. ”I am not feeling any pain right now, believe me.”
I sighed seeing her bright mood. But remembering her painful expression on the seashore a while ago made me tense and I cannot just calm down.
*knock knock*
”Your majesty, it is me.” Tricia's voice was heard outside the door. ”I have come with Anatalia.”
”Please, enter.” I replied in haste.
The door opened and Tricia came in with Anatalia following from behind. I also saw William standing by the door.
”I am sorry that I called you out from the feast.” I said with a sympathetic tone.
”Do not worry, your majesty.” Tricia replied with a smile. ”It is our job to serve you.”
”And you as well Anatalia, I know you were still enjoying yourself and exploring the sea.” I said in a humble tone.
”It is no biggie.” Anatalia said with a wide smile, waving her hands. ”Alicia's condition is more important. The sea is will not go away anywhere, so I can explore another time.”
”Thank you.” Alicia said with gratitude.
Anatalia walked towards Alicia and took her pulse. I looked at my wife with worry.
”There is no need to worry, her pulse is strong.” Anatalia said. ”It is normal in the first trimester to feel slight pain. After a few weeks into the first trimester, the pain should go away. But just to be sure I have some herbs with me that will help the fetus grow strong.”
”That is good to hear.” I sighed in relief. I held my wife's hand firmly and kissed its back.
”You should get a hot bath before you sleep to help you calm your muscles and nerves.” Anatalia said to Alicia. ”Oh, and I suggest taking some warm honey water after your intake of the herbs I will give. They are a little bitter to taste.”
”Is that so?” Alicia had a frown in her face. Seeing it made me smile.
I knew how Alicia does not like drinking bitter medicine since we first met. I remember always having something sweet like candy, ready to be given to her after drinking her medicine.
”Tricia, please prepare a hot bath for my wife and help also her.” I said. ”I will visit the kitchen to ask for warm honey water and some sweets to be ready after you drink the herbs Anatalia will give.” I told Alicia.
”You really know me too well.” Alicia giggled.
”Be careful while taking a bath okay.” I kissed Alicia on the forehead. ”I will be right back.”
I stood up and walked out of the room. Once outside, I saw William standing guard by the door side.
”Your majesty.” William greeted me.
”Sorry to take you away from the feast.” I apologized to William as well.
”There is no need to apologize.” William said. ”It is my duty to guard her majesty.
