When dinner time came, Alessandro went to the dining room, but he was greatly surprised to see that no one was there. He knew that perhaps Cassian wouldn’t return that day since he had gone to the territory of Kover to see the lands he would be receiving upon becoming a duke, but Abril always had all her meals in the dining room, even if she was alone. The only times she didn’t were when she wasn’t feeling well.

“Where is my wife?”

“She is in her room.”

“Has she gone to rest so soon?”

“Actually, she hasn’t left her room all day. She said she was still tired from the trip.”

Alessandro went straight to Abril’s room. Upon entering and seeing her sleeping in bed, he became worried. He approached, sat on the edge of the bed, and with a voice full of concern

he asked her.

“Aby, are you okay?”

Abril woke up upon hearing Alessandro’s voice. When she opened her eyes, he caressed her

cheek.

“Are you alright?”

“Yes, I’m just a little tired.”

“The maids said you’ve stayed in the room all day. Are you sure you’re okay?”

“Actually, last night I dreamed of my mother. She is teaching me how to control my magic, and even though I only do it in my dreams, it makes me feel exhausted.”

“Maybe Sirius should be the one to teach you to control your magic, so you wouldn’t be so

exhausted.”

“I don’t know, I’ll tell my mother.”

“Don’t push yourself so hard. I don’t like seeing you so exhausted.”

“Okay.”

“You must be hungry. I’ll ask for dinner to be brought to the room.”

“Yes, that sounds good to me.”

Alessandro called the maids, and they quickly served dinner. Alessandro helped Abril get out of bed and to the table. Despite being exhausted, Abril didn’t seem to have lost her appetite. Alessandro laughed seeing her eat with such appetite.

“What’s wrong?”

“I was worried about you, but seeing you eat so well makes me think you’re doing fine.”

“I’m fine, I just feel very sleepy.”

Koda approached Abril, and she gave him a bit of chicken. Alessandro asked her.

“This furball has been with you all day?”

“Yes, Koda likes to sleep by my side. Will you be busy tomorrow?”

“Yes, there are still many things I have pending since I was away for some time. By the way, we’ll soon have a dance.”

Upon hearing that there would soon be a dance at the palace, Abril’s eyes lit up.

“Really?”

“Yes, Cassian will obtain the title; Duke, and we’ll have a dance to celebrate it.”

“Duke? But Cassian is a prince.”

“Yes, but to prevent divisions from forming, the princes renounce their title, take on that of duke, and swear loyalty to the royal family.”

“So it’s just a formality.”

“Let’s say yes, although Cassian will have to leave the palace and take control of the lands he will be given when he becomes a duke.”

“So Cassian will leave the palace?”

Seeing a shadow of sadness on Abril’s face, Alessandro asked her.

“You don’t want Cassian to leave?”

“He is my beloved friend, I wouldn’t want to lose him.”

“You won’t, even if he’s far away, he’ll still be your friend.”

“This place will be lonely without him.”

“I’ll be here for you, I won’t let you feel lonely.”

After finishing dinner, Abril gave a long yawn. Even though she had been sleeping all day, she felt as if she hadn’t slept for days. Her eyelids felt heavy; she just wanted to close her eyes and sleep.

“Are you still sleepy?”

“Yes, I think it would be best if I go to sleep.”

“Yeah, that’s a good idea. I’m tired too; it’s been a pretty hectic day.”

Alessandro took Abril in his arms, carried her to the bed, gently laid her down, and said.

“I’ll have them clear all this up so we can get some sleep.”

Alessandro called the maids who were waiting outside the room, and after they cleared the table and left, he laid down beside her, wrapped his arms around her, and began to stroke her hair without saying a word. Abril stared at him for a moment, and he said.

“If you don’t close your eyes, I don’t think you’ll be able to fall asleep.”

“I just want to keep looking at you. We haven’t spent much time together today, and I want to see your face a bit longer.”

Abril yawned; it was obvious she was fighting sleep to stay awake. He caressed her soft

cheeks and said.

“You don’t need to fight the sleep.”

“But when I wake up, you won’t be here.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll be right here. When you open your eyes, I’ll be the first thing you see.”

Alessandro covered Abril’s eyes with his hand, forcing her to close them.

“But…”

“Get some sleep; you need it so your magic can recover and your body won’t feel so tired.”

“Using magic is always so tiring.”

“No, that only happens when you can’t control it, you let your magic slip away. When you learn to master it, you won’t feel tired.”

“I hope so. I want to stop feeling so weak and be able to help you, to give back a bit of everything you give me.”

Abril said before drifting off to sleep. Alessandro kissed her forehead and said.

“You don’t need to give me anything back. Seeing you happy is enough for me, my beloved Aby. I just want you to be happy.”
