Five years ago

"Please don't take this ring away from yourself, don't cause death for yourself" He was worried about him.

He turned to him in surprise and then looked at him and smiled a little sarcastically. "Why are you worried about me?" Then he watched him in silence for a few moments. "While in this palace, you will not even be the last person who wants to see me alive".

He was standing nearby looking at him uncertainly.

"Only when I die you Will live" Then he laughed lightly, thinking something. "Our fate was decided on the day we were both born in this palace... And how terrible it is that we are both princes, The scariest aspect of my destiny is that I am a member of the royal family... And more than that, I am your brother"

Saying this, he was about to leave when he spoke immediately.

"Why do you hate me so much?"

He stopped when he heard his question. He stood there in silence for a long time, And then he turned around and looked at him. "You are the first and the last person in this palace whom I cannot hate even if I wanted to"

He was surprised at what he said.

"Otherwise, why would I accept the punishment for the mistake I did not make? What do you think?" He stared at him questioningly for a while, Then he took a deep breath and saw him moving his hand over his face.

He was looking at him anxiously, he was surprised. He bowed his head in embarrassment. There were tears in his eyes.

He looked at him quietly and laughed lightly. "You should be happy that your competition is ending today, or maybe the tension is over, which I was,... Now only you have the right to the throne, you should be very happy, then why are you crying?"

He looked at him with angry, wet eyes. "I never needed your help, no one can take what is mine from me, ever,..... But you know what, nobody needs you,... I don't even want to see your face, get out of my room now." He said angrily.

He laughed a little,.." You don't have to say,.. I'm going anyway,.. But now you look like the king of the future".

Saying this, he left, even though he was calling him from behind, but he never once looked back. And in a short time, he disappeared from his sight.

present days

The royal palace of the state of Atfiyan

Today again, he woke up from his incomplete sleep. He was breathing fast, His whole body was drenched in sweat. He glanced helplessly at his room, and then took a deep breath of helplessness. He lowered his legs and sat down on one side of the bed, He was staring at the floor with empty eyes.

"Prince, have you had the same dream again?"

He heard the voice and looked at her. She was one of the girls her mother had chosen for him from the harem.

"What are you doing here?" He said a little angrily.

Frightened, she stepped back and bowed her head, saying, "Queen Isabella has sent me to serve you."

Hearing this, he took a deep breath and then got up and stood in front of her. She just stood there with her head bowed.

"I told you before that even if my mother says to you, you will not come to my room, you do not understand me at once? ". His tone was very harsh, There was intense anger in his eyes.

She was very scared, so she spoke with difficulty. "Prince, I told the queen, but she was very angry when she heard me... If you don't want me here, tell the queen not to send me here... I am a slave and I am not important enough to talk to her,... Nor do I have the courage to talk to her".

He stared at her in silence for a moment, then stepped back and took a deep breath. "Then where did you get the courage to talk to me?" This time his tone was soft.

She glanced at him in fear and then immediately knelt on her knees. "Prince, I apologize if I have made a mistake inadvertently."

He watched her for a while. "what is your name? " He said softly.

The girl looked up at the prince in surprise and then immediately lowered her eyes. "Alexandra", that's all she said.

"Tell me your real name, not a name given by my mother".

She was silent for a few moments and then spoke in a very soft voice. "Isabella"

He was a little startled, suddenly a thought struck him. "You know your real name is better than that name, so from now on you will be called by your name in this palace."

She was shocked to hear this. "Was it all a joke, was there any joke between her and the prince? If the queen finds out that her name is being called, no one can say anything to the prince, but I will be killed". Thinking this, her hands and feet became cold." Prince, the queen will not like it at all, It is an insult to her that even a simple maiden should have the same name as the queen" she made a futile attempt to persuade the prince. But she may have forgotten who was standing in front of her.

"Why are you afraid of her?" He looked carefully at Isabella's face. She was beautiful but it did not affect him. The beauty of the face never mattered to him, No one could know what was going on in his mind at that time.

"You are not even afraid of the king. Fear of the queen is a far cry. She is the queen her fear is a natural thing, But of course, how do you know what fear is? Apart from this dream, I have not seen you afraid of anyone."She was thinking without looking at him.

There was a strange silence. The windows of the room were open and cool air was coming in. There was so much silence at that time that the chirping of birds could be heard from outside.

Today, for the first time, the prince stood silently, giving her every opportunity to speak, And the one who was just thinking so much, her tongue was completely silent while speaking.

"I think I asked you something".

She was startled to hear the prince's voice. Then she immediately said, "Prince, I can't disobey the queen's order".

Hearing her, he had a strange smile on his face. "Who am I ? " his tone was questionable. He was looking at Isabella with questioning eyes.

Isabella looked at him in surprise at his question." What do you mean?". She did not understand what he meant.

"I don't think I have asked you anything that you cannot answer," He said bluntly.

"You are the prince". She replied with his head bowed.

"And other than that?"He was speaking very patiently.

" And besides, you are the crown prince" She replied that she did not want to provoke him further by arguing with him. The one who was just talking to her in such a soft tone must have something going on in her mind. Otherwise, just a while ago, he was looking with edible eyes, she thought in her heart.

"Exactly, then who is more important, she or I?"

This time she was completely silent. What would she answer? "She is the queen, apparently she was also important, But even a child can tell that the crown prince is the most important person after the king. Then what is the point of asking this question?". She thought to herself, but then immediately answered the prince." Prince, no one is more important than you except the king, not even the queen ".

He breathed deeply and then moved away from her to his bed. Isabella glanced at him.

" So shouldn't you obey my command more than her ?". He picked something up from the table near the bed.

" What...do.. you want to say? She said hesitantly"

He approached her and put a brooch on her clothes. Isabella did not understand for a moment, her eyes were on the face of the prince.

"You will know soon". Saying this, he backed away. There was a strange smile and calmness on his face.

At first, she stared at him for a few moments without understanding. And then as soon as she saw her clothes, her surprise was at its peak.
