Chapter 213: The unconscious princeLester ran through the corridor of the palace, straight to the King’s and Queen’s quarters. He knocked on the door, his hands covered in sweat as he rubbed them together in anticipation. Mabel opened the door and saw Lester. He bowed to her first before speaking, "Your Majesty, there was a call from the hospital. Prince-Prince Gabriel was found unconscious in a room." "What?" Mabel exclaimed, her body turned cold, and she staggered behind when Raidan supported her. "Dear, our son.... He... He" "Calm down," Raidan told her, bringing her to the sofa. He poured a glass of water for her, and at the same time, asked Lester to come inside. "In which hospital Gabriel was found?" Raidan asked while making sure his wife would drink the water. Lester promptly responded. "Should I prepare a vehicle for His and Her Majesty?" "Yes. We are leaving right away," Raidan replied. "Also, inform Amelie about it." "No. She’s pregnant. Let’s first find out on our own if Gabriel is fine," Mabel stated. "But Amelie should know," Raidan told her. "Lester, bring Amelie outside to the car. I’ll explain it to her. Also, inform Casaio, Dominick and Kate as well," he asserted. "Your Majesty, Prince Casaio isn’t in the palace. He was seen heading out with Zilia. As for Prince Dominick, he’s also outside." "I see. Just inform Amelie and Katelyn then," Raidan stated. Lester bowed. "Yes, Your Majesty." Mabel settled the glass on the table and quickly moved to the cupboard. "How can Gabriel get unconscious? It never happened before," she muttered, taking out two long coats for them. Raidan had already made the call to Dominick and Casaio, asking them to immediately arrive at the Evergreen Regional Hospital. They put on their coats, wore their respective shoes and headed out. ~~~ Meanwhile, Amelie was staring at her phone and the time too. "He’s not even answering his call," she murmured. Just then, she heard a knock on the door. Happily, she walked toward it. As soon as she opened it, she called his name in excitement. "Gabriel, you–" she abruptly stopped seeing Lester in front of her. "Your Highness, the Alpha King wants your presence," Lester informed her. "Is everything alright?" Amelie asked, feeling a bit worried. "I’ll be waiting for you," Lester said, choosing not to reply. Amelie shut the door lightly and wore something modest. When she stepped outside and joined Lester, her brows furrowed in confusion as they headed not toward the main hall, but toward the foyer of the palace. Waiting just beyond the grand entrance was a vehicle. A driver stood beside it as if anticipating her arrival. Amelie gazed at Lester, feeling worried now. "Please, get in, Your Highness," Lester said. Amelie climbed into the car’s backseat. Katelyn and Mabel were already there while Raidan was seated on the front seat. "Amelie, we are heading to the hospital," Raidan began. The driver had started the engine and drove straight to the hospital. "Why? Did-did something happen?" Amelie’s heart began to race violently against her chest. She didn’t want her scary thoughts to cloud her mind, but the expressions on their faces showed that something wasn’t right. "Gabriel is found unconscious in the hospital. We are heading there to see him," Raidan said. "I’ve talked with the doctor a while ago. Everything is fine with him." Amelie’s eyes welled up in tears, her hands started to tremble when Mabel placed her hand over hers. "Everything is fine. Nothing has happened to him." "Yes," Amelie responded in a low voice, but until she would see Gabriel with her own eyes, her heart and mind wouldn’t be at peace. She fidgeted with her fingers, looking outside the window, wanting the hospital to arrive soon. An hour’s drive felt like an eternity. Finally, they were at the hospital. The hospital’s director was present to fetch them along with top officials of the hospital. "We found Prince Gabriel in the wardroom of a patient. It seems there was a third person too. We found a needle mark on Prince Gabriel’s neck. Luckily, we removed the toxin immediately. So, he’s out of danger," the director explained to all of them. Katelyn held Amelie’s arm tightly as they waited for the elevator to stop at the floor, where Gabriel was admitted. "Did you check the CCTVs?" asked Raidan. "We did, Your Majesty," the director replied. "We are still investigating on this." The elevator stopped and the doors opened. They all stepped out, following the director closely. Just they entered the wardroom, Amelie rushed to the bed, not caring for the others. She saw the drip on his arm, connecting through an IV bag. She held his hand and gazed at the doctors. "When will he wake up?" Amelie questioned. "As per our examination, the prince shall wake up soon. We can’t tell the right time," the attending doctor said. Katelyn quietly walked to Amelie’s side and looked at her brother. She had never seen Gabriel going into such a state. "There’s nothing to fear about, right?" Mabel asked this time. "No, Your Majesty. The reports turned out fine. We did all the tests," the doctor assured her not to be worried. "Thank you everyone. I appreciate for your timely action," Raidan stated, looking at the doctor and then at the director. "Make sure the security is tightened here," he asserted. "Yes, Your Majesty." The director bowed. "We will let you be here. If you need anything, please press the button on the wall. We will be present in your service, Your Majesty," he said. "Sure." After they left, Raidan stood near his wife and gazed at Gabriel’s unconscious body. "I’ll stay at the hospital. You three should go back to the palace," he opined. "No, Your Majesty. Please let me stay here," Amelie urged. "But if you won’t give rest to your body, it can affect the pup’s health," Raidan reasoned. "I decided to inform you because I felt you should know. Amelie, Gabriel is absolutely fine as per the doctors. So, there’s nothing to worry about. So, go back with Mabel and Kate," he spoke, his voice carrying a fatherly concern.
