During afternoon tea, King Orion was humiliating Issac. And due to submission magic, he could only silently accept all that humiliation.
— Maybe I should ask you to kill one of my concubines, I heard they belonged to the royal court, could one of them be your girlfriend? Should I order you to kill her?
— Dad, stop, please.
Lillian immediately got up from her chair and stood between them. The king glared and spoke in a threatening tone.
— You're contradicting me!
- It's not that. He's my toy. You can't keep him.
— You've grown up, but you're still a child! I won't keep your toy, you can take it.
Lillian bowed that she was going to leave and Issac followed her. They went to Lillian's room. She gently grabbed his face and asked worriedly:
— How are you, Isaac?
— I don't know how to thank you for what you're doing for me.
Issac knew that even though Lillian had freed some of the citizens, many others were still being taken prisoner or in slavery. And he felt angry with himself for the impotence he presented in the face of the enemy, he could not do anything to protect his people.
Issac was squeezing his hand tightly, which was starting to hurt. Lillian approached and hugged him to console him and said that she would listen to him. Upon hearing the atrocities that the king had committed in the kingdom of Lynx, Lillian was impacted, as she did not imagine the level of resentment that Issac could have. And asked permission to be alone.
Lillian provided space for Issac and allowed him to be present when he felt better. The next day, she organized several pending issues and organized strategies to avoid repeating the same actions that he had in the past or that he could have in the future.
At night, Lillian was alone in the room and the assistants came to prepare her. It was a new dress, the king gave her this dress and there was a letter.
"You should act more like a woman and give me grandchildren."
— "That's why he forced me to choose concubines, he wants a male heir soon... For now, I'll accept this provocation and get ready. Issac is already aware, so nothing will happen."
The assistants got Issac ready, he looked really wonderful, his muscles were showing in the clothes they had prepared. And they had arranged it in a way that the princess wouldn't resist with a black tunic with silver details.
When Issac entered the room, Lillian was so impressed that she couldn't look away. She was embarrassed, as she was not used to these things, unlike the rumors.
Lillian asked Issac to sit down. He noticed that Lillian looked really charming with her hair tied back with a few loose strands that fell over her shoulders, her clothes revealing her neck and chest. Lillian looked beautiful in his eyes with a truly seductive beauty.
Lillian decided to start the conversation, as she noticed that the atmosphere was a little different than usual.
— Issac, have you really never dated anyone before? It's hard to believe with the way you look.
— The activities of the kingdom and the frequent war meant that he did not have time for relationships. Furthermore, a former future ruler could not have a relationship with just anyone.
Lillian knew that it was her kingdom's fault for the frequent invasions of Lynx's kingdom, there was no point in apologizing for what had already happened, and apologies would not be enough to remedy what had happened.
Lillian drank the tea the assistants had served, then realized something was strange. Lillian asked Issac not to drink the tea and then began to feel the effects of the aphrodisiac.
— "I can't believe they did something so unnecessary, I can't let Issac find out."
With just one sip of the aphrodisiac, Lillian's reason was slipping away and she couldn't control her senses. She wanted to ask Issac to leave so as not to force him to do something he didn't want to do, but at the same time she wanted to force him to stay.
— Lilian, are you okay? Your face is red.
Issac approached, lightly touched Lillian's forehead, but his touch made her remember the other day, as she had not yet forgotten it. She was a little breathless, informing in broken speech that the tea contained an aphrodisiac.
— I'll call the doctor.
— "However, if this had been an order from the king, he would discover that I did not order Issac anything." — thought Lillian, in silent suffering.
In Issac's eyes, Lillian was completely irresistible. She hadn't ordered anything yet, but it was as if her body was calling him. He didn't know if he had the right to touch her, but he needed to find some way to alleviate Lillian's symptoms.
Issac carried her to the bed and sat next to her, Issac lightly slid his hand over Lillian's face, lightly running over her lip, down her neck and shoulder, he hugged her and kissed her neck, while Lillian hugged him. He lightly lowered one of the straps of Lillian's dress and lightly kissed her right shoulder, while calling her in a way as if he loved her.
— Lillian, would you give me permission to continue?
— " By continue, he is referring to taking my first time, but this would also be his first time. I wanted to, but I didn't want my first time to be caused by the emperor's whim."
Lillian gathered her strength and touched Issac's face.
— I would like you to continue, but this is not the right time.
He walked away for a moment, put a sheet around Lillian and took her to the bathroom, where he placed her in the bathtub, he turned on the shower which was wetting them both, it was as if he wanted the heat to dissipate.
He leaned against the tub and looked into Lillian's eyes.
— I was doing all this of my own free will, and I do not regret any action. Then I will receive the appropriate punishment, princess.
Issac soon wrapped himself in a bathrobe and left, while Lillian stayed in the bathtub.
— "I can't understand Issac's actions, was he attracted to me? This is impossible. I don't remember all the details of the dream. However, despite being a concubine, he had not slept with me or developed feelings for me. He was just a figure to demonstrate this kingdom's sovereignty over the Lynx kingdom. I can't get Issac's expressions out of my mind."
