" Althea are you alright? " the old lady hurried to her side when she heard her coughing
she wanted to answer her but the coughing didn"t stop Althea it started a few days ago the old lady noticed and it was getting worse every day, Althea placed her hand on her chest trying to catch her breath she lifted her face to look at the old her face was extremely pale she was barely managing to keep standing on her feets
" I"m fine don"t worry " Althea spoke her voice was very weak
" no you are not you need to go to.... " the old lady couldn"t finish her words as she saw the young girl clinched the fabric above her chest like she was in pain as her body give up
" Althea Althea look at me " the old lady caught her before she falls on the ground
" someone help call a doctor immediately " the old lady screamed for the pa.s.sing maids
hearing the noise outside the two n.o.bles vamper came to see what"s going on they saw that most of the servants had gathered around the old lady
" step aside please, " Aido said to the servants and all of them stepped back
both of them were shocked to see Althea body lying lifelessly in the old lady hands the girl looked very pale and there was blood coming out from the corner of her mouth
" whet happened? " Tak.u.ma asked as he checked her pulse to his surprise her hear was barely beating
" I don"t know " the old lady replied as she was crying
" everyone gets back to your work now," Tak.u.ma said before he turned around to face Aido " go inform Kaname " the blonde vampire before he gathered the young girl in his arms walking towards the lord room
standing beside the bed Tak.u.ma watched the doctor as he examined Althea he could tell by the doctor behavior that situation isn"t good
" her condition is not very promising the symptoms that her body showed indicate that she was poisoned I need some time to know what kind poison she was poisoned with but even if I don"t recommend that to have high hopes that she will survive," the doctor said before he gathered his equipment
hearing the old lady body fall on the chair and started crying
" Are you sure there is nothing we can do? " Tak.u.ma asked not believing what he just heard
" I gave her some antidotes and a.n.a.lgesic I"m very sorry but she is a human lord Tak.u.ma there is nothing we can do more " the doctor replied " I will come to check on her in the evening, " the doctor said before leaving
he can"t believe what he just heard she will die that easily what about Kaname and her mother they will both will heartbroken and devastating he couldn"t believe how cruel life is she still young yet everything was taken from her, he could only hope that life will give them a second chance
sensing the lord presence both Tak.u.ma and the old lady turned to look at the already open door
once he entered the room both friends exchanged a look before the lord made his way towards the bed where the young girl was lying on
Tak.u.ma and the old lady left the room giving him the chance to spend what it could be her last moments with

" I"m sorry I shouldn"t have left you alone forgive me Althea " the Lord whispered to her as he put his forehead on hers
