"Your Majesty," Rossy bowed in honor as he passed William and Alexander at the prison door.
The girl smiled faintly as if knowing what made the two princes appear to be in a hurry.
"Lady, what are you doing here? This is a dangerous place" asked William.
"I just want to see Lady Nore. Before, allow me to talk to Your Majesty, there is something I want to talk about" Rossy said.
William smiled, as he slightly glanced towards Alexander who was beside him.
"All right, come with me!" william's edict and turned around, leaving Alexander still speechless without saying a word followed by Rossy who walked behind William.
"Rossy, are you avoiding me?" Alexander whispered while linking his fingers with Rossy's fingers, which made Rossy jerked and immediately stopped his footsteps.
"I must speak to His Highness the Crown Prince, I'll excuse you first, Your Majesty."
Let alone to greet each other, after the incident Rossy even always turned his face when he saw Alexander, as if limiting himself and rejecting Alexander's feelings without speaking.
Alexander looked at his fingers touched by Rossy's hand. A long-lost sense of silence, emptiness, and despair returned. The long-spirited man in the color of the snow tub could only regret having expressed his feelings.
"Maybe I've burdened you."

Meanwhile, William took Rossy to the greenhouse, as fragrant flowers suddenly burst forth with the warm rays of the sun.
Rossy's memory returned when he had a conversation with Alexander there. Every single thing that he passed with the second prince, none of which he had forgotten, were all well etched in his heart and mind.
"Please sit down, Rossy!" exclaiming William.
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
"Your Majesty, I know this is excessive but, may I ask for leniency for Lady Nore's punishment?" pinta Rossy's.
"Why? Were you threatened with Marquess Nore?" william asked suspiciously.
Rossy shook his head, then looked back at William and said, "It's not like that. This is my own sincere intention. I was really touched by the Marquess' affection for her daughter, and when I visited Isabella, I was pretty sure she had changed."
"Your Majesty, in addition to these two things I am actually also worried about something" Rossy continued.
William's forehead creased as he looked at Rossy closely. The blonde-haired man implied a question mark-filled look, and it was not missed by Rossy who had noticed it.
"I am sure this condition will be used by Duke Robert Ferus and his minions. This would be extremely dangerous and detrimental, as the Marquess family was famous for its loyalty to the court. If we get outnumbered by too many nobles leaning there, your life will be threatened!" exclaim Rossy.
"So you're worried about me?" William asked while smiling at Rossy.
The man got up and walked towards the predominantly white Lily flower plant and plucked it a sprig.
"Yes, I'm very worried about your safety. You are the next emperor and you are the pillar of this Empire. I hope you are always in safety" Rossy replied calmly.
"Lady, do you want me to immediately announce my accession to the throne?" ask William back.
"Of course, I want you to ascend the throne immediately and become a wise emperor."
William's footsteps approached Rossy and the man inserted a flower he had just picked into the girl's ear. Not only that, Rossy did not expect William to touch her hair and kiss her saying, "I'll be emperor, if you're willing to be my queen."
