Chapter 10

Killan and Lillian were talking on the terrace.

-  I know your secret!

-  Which secret? - Lillian said, approaching Killan so that the others couldn't hear. - What secret, Lord Killan?

-  You have the gift of dreams. Only those divinely blessed can have this gift.

-  How does this gift work?

-  Didn't you know about him?

Killan was surprised. And Lillian said:

-  I had my doubts as to whether it was really real.

-  What would you gain from revealing such information? Killan asked.

Lillian was silent.

-  "He wasn't in the dream, so it's not related to my fall? However, I cannot rule out that he may be hiding something." - thought Lillian and said:

-  What would you like to win?

-  Make me your concubine, princess.

Killan was about to touch Lillian's face, when Issac entered the place and stopped him and said:

-  Only I have the right to touch it.

-  Isaac? - Lillian was surprised.

Lillian was surprised by Issac's sudden appearance, but was relieved that Killan was interrupted.

-  Just for now! I'm sure the princess will accept my proposal. - Killan said.

-  Is this a threat? - Lillian asked worriedly.

-  It's a statement, princess. Please meet me for tea at 3pm tomorrow, I would be delighted to welcome you.

Lillian was worried that he had information about her gift that she did not. She needed to find him, the future was taking another shape.

Issac accompanied the princess in silence and in the carriage they were alone, but no words were being exchanged.

Issac was worried, as he was thinking that he was of no use to Lillian, while that young man was the son of the duke and an apprentice priest, he certainly has greater political power. He would have the political strength to be on Lillian's side.

-  Lillian, will you accept that young man as your concubine?

-  Why? Are you jealous?

-  I don't have that right, but I do.

She was surprised, she didn't think Issac would give that answer. Issac approached and sat next to Lillian, he approached and gently touched Lillian's lips with his finger and asked:

-  Did you kiss him?

-  We just talked.

-  Will you meet him tomorrow?

Issac looked a little worried, she could see in Issac's eyes that he was afraid of being abandoned, she knew very well what that feeling was like. She climbed into his lap and hugged him, gently touched his face and looked into his eyes.

-  Don't worry, I like you.

And kissed him.
