In Crown Princess's chamber,

Gasping, Eugenie woke from the nap after a nightmare. Wiping the sweat from her forehead, her eyes looked for Zander who wasn't in the chambers.

"Pull yourself, Eugenie." She encouraged herself. Without him beside her, Eugenie knew that she had to be strong, for herself and her daughters.

She quickly tidied herself with the help of her lady-in-waiting and a maid. She asked, "Where is Zander?"

Her lady-in-waiting signaled the maid to leave and responded, "Your Royal Highness, as soon as you dozed off, His Royal Highness went to find out Lord Loar's motives." She hesitated to continue, "Princess Freya wasn't able to defend herself. She is still a suspect for bringing Lord Loar to the palace."

"How is that possible?" Freya would risk her life for Alora's well-being instead of harming Alora in any way. Eugenie could never believe otherwise.
