Lillian was worried, as she needed to make preparations for her trip to the kingdom of Pyxis. It would be the first time that she would be away from the kingdom, so she was a little excited to discover new cultures and other civilizations.
Lillian was in her office when the knight Izor came to report on the northern city.
— Princess Lillian, I've been able to carry out administrative activities so far, but the city is developing a lot and I'm reaching my limit.
Lillian looked at all the documentation and realized that the city was developing, she needed to establish a finance plan for the city. Issac was also present at the meeting and immediately suggested it.
— Izor try to find people you trust so they can help you with the smallest tasks. And when they are more used to it, assign more functions.
Issac looked at the documentation near Lillian and suggested some improvements. Lillian was impressed. Issac was showing that he possessed several administrative skills. He was the heir to the throne of Lynx, he had an education aimed at taking over the kingdom.
— "Should I send Issac to the northern territory? I believe you would be safe in my absence. Furthermore, he could help with the selection of professionals."
Lillian needed to elaborate on this idea further, so she didn't suggest it for now. However, she was impressed by Issac's intelligence. He quickly resolved all the issues listed by Izor and in the most efficient manner possible.
...
During the night, Lillian was worried about the trip and went to sleep. However, she had several dream flashes that night.
Issac, who was sleeping next to Lillian, noticed that she was suffering a little, it seemed as if she was having a terrible nightmare. However, Issac heard his name. Killan had informed her that he couldn't wake her when Lillian was in a very deep dream.
Issac took out one of his magic stones.
— "I didn't know this skill could be useful one day. Will Lillian be upset because I'm going to look at her dream. "
Issac absorbed the stone's magic and then touched Lillian's forehead. The magic stone contains a power that is stored. In Issac's case, he possessed several magical abilities, but because these abilities were straining his body, he stored them in magic stones. Therefore, when Killan touched Issac he did not identify which magical gift he possessed, as his gifts were hidden.

Lillian was passing through the hallway when she saw a girl entering Issac's room. Lillian had been curious, she had never seen this girl before. Duke Gideon approached Lillian, who was surprised.
— Do you know who this girl is? She was Issac's suitor when he ruled Lynx.
— She was Issac's fiancée!
— You may like him a lot, but does he like you that much? Why don't you listen to what they're talking about?
Lillian was near the door, she didn't want to do it, but she was curious. Gideon leaned against the door to listen and began to find it funny.
—It looks like you just lost a concubine.
Lillian decided to listen and heard Issac's voice.
— I hadn't seen you in so long, I missed you so much.
— I missed you a lot too, Issac. You have become the princess's concubine. What will we do with our relationship?
— I was forced to do so. I needed to pay off the debt for her freeing me. So, as she was in need of affection, I provided her with some. We can hide our relationship. Because the one I truly love is you.
Lillian lost the strength in her legs.
— "I can't believe it, the person I least expected to betray me abandoned me. And he was faking a feeling to pay off a debt!"
Lillian started crying and left and ran to her office, she locked herself in.
— Issac, why?
— Lillian.... Lillian....
Lillian began to hear Issac's voice in the background.
***
Issac saw the dream, he couldn't believe it, even with Killan's warnings, he woke Lillian up. However, she seemed not to have completely woken up.
Lillian saw Issac, and suddenly hugged him.
— Don't abandon me, you can't do this to me.
Issac called for Lillian, but got no response, she pushed Issac against the bed, but Lillian had a vacant look as if she was still dreaming.
— Issac, you are mine!
