As Charlotte's pregnancy progressed, time in the castle flowed with peace and anticipation. Charlotte, whose belly was now slightly visible, participated in the diplomatic affairs of the realm with Engfa when she was not tired, and supported in making decisions about the future of the realm. However, most of the time, her attention was completely focused on their little daughter Englotte. Englotte had begun to discover her magic power, and with the excitement of feeling the energy of the realm inside her, she was developing every passing day.
Rowena, Luther, and Elowen were in awe of Englotte as they witnessed her abilities during their magical training. Englotte was learning the basics of magic under the guidance of her elders, and her confidence was growing, and she was sharing the excitement of learning new things with her family. This progress brought back memories in Luther's eyes; he could now see traces of Engfa's power and talent from her childhood in her granddaughter. In his eyes, Englotte was taking firm steps towards becoming a powerful and respected sorceress like her mother.
In this new era, everyone in the castle was continuing preparations for Charlotte's upcoming birth and supporting Englotte's magical journey with love and care.
Charlotte's pregnancy was a little different from her first. While she was expecting Englotte, she had more sweet cravings, but this time Charlotte was craving bloody, rare meats and fresh, distilled blood. Engfa had given all the instructions to carefully meet Charlotte's new needs and had made sure that every corner of the castle had the food she could possibly want.
These changes both excited Engfa and made her feel that the new heir would come into the world with a different energy. Engfa was always by Charlotte's side, meeting her needs and trying to make her pregnancy as comfortable as possible.
As Charlotte's pregnancy progressed, not only her eating habits but also her physical features began to change significantly. She was much more tired than she was when she was pregnant with Englotte, and she felt more exhausted every day. Her skin had become paler and more sensitive, and her energy had decreased; therefore, she had to constantly receive blood supplements. Distilled blood was kept in every corner of the castle for her needs, and Engfa was constantly taking care of Charlotte to make sure that these needs were met in the best possible way.
Charlotte, no matter how tired she felt, watched the progress of her daughter Englotte with great pride, trying to be patient with the happiness of waiting for her second heir. Engfa was happy to be by Charlotte's side at every moment, approaching these changes with understanding and love.
One evening, the Austin family had come to the castle to accompany them for dinner. The family had gathered around the table in great peace. Englotte had chosen a plate of light vegetables and spicy meats, and had not left out the dessert plate and the deer's blood. As she ate in her high chair with small movements, Charlotte and Engfa, as well as the whole family, watched her with affection.
When the meal service began, Charlotte was served a large, rare steak and a large glass of freshly distilled special blood. Charlotte ate the treat with gusto, while Moriah and Seraphine smiled as she ate with gusto.
"Charlotte, your tastes seem to have changed quite a bit during this pregnancy," Seraphine said with a slight smile.
"Absolutely, I am always craving fresh blood," Charlotte replied after taking a sip from her glass, which brought a smile to the faces of both Engfa and her family.
"I'm sure Engfa is doing her best to accommodate your every wish," Moriah said, winking at Engfa.
"I'm doing the best I can," Engfa replied, smiling at Charlotte.
Meanwhile, Englotte was also paying attention to the conversation and curiously pointed to the meat on her mother's plate and asked, "Mom, do you eat meat like me?"
