When the Princess leapt up from the balcony in her private wing of the castle—Liam nearly died of a heart attack then and there. Was she really that tired of staying cooped up that this was her only solution?
Liam couldn't handle the job alone and yet he had no choice. He was the only Bodyguard around after Gesth Carter was summoned for what Liam knew to be a suspension and great reprimand after the discovery of the Crowel boy—so Liam thought he was done for.
Sole Princess dead while Bodyguard Liam was in charge for once.
But Iolathane knew about the castle far more than he did and the [ Feather Fall ] enchantment took its effect before the Princess potentially broke her ankle, ruined her back or bashed her head from such a perilous drop.
Freedom was nothing more but a brief moment.
