The Masked prince
"It was a game of survival." The great Empire of Alfaros was in chaos. Prince Regan was returning from the battlefield after four years. Years ago, he used to be the most beautiful prince of the Empire. Ironically, the same prince was today known as The Masked Prince. It is said that he had a huge scar on his face, a face that used to be very beautiful. The scar was so horrifying that the Emperor got scared when he saw it and sent him away to the battlefield. But the war was over. And he was to return. . . . Looking at the green eyes that didn't even flicker at the sight of his scarred face, Regan was filled with a surprise for a moment. At the same time, something flashed in his cold eyes when he saw how calm she looked. "What is your name?" "Evelyn, Your Highness" "Evelyn..." Regan tasted the name on his lips. His red eyes looked at her face which was completely blank and he said "Evelyn, you will be my personal slave from today on." Evelyn looked calm. However, as time passed, Evelyn realized that Regan wanted more. Much more than she could give him. She tried to stop him. But what would she do when the prince forcefully put his heart into her hands and was adamant about taking hers? Will Evelyn then choose to move away or to move on?

A Bittersweet Dinner
After returning to her room, Evelyn called Ezra and asked him for help.
"What is My Lady saying? I am always ready to serve My Lady."
Ezra said because he didn't like Evelyn using the word 'help'. Evelyn smiled and told him about Peri.
She wanted Ezra to find out where Peri was sold and then free her.
"You can also ask her about this. She might remember it."
Evelyn said and Ezra nodded his head.
"It will be done, My Lady."
He bowed his head before he left the room.
Later that evening, Evelyn continued her sword practice. She only stopped when a maid came and informed her that Regan and Rex were back.
Isla smiled seeing how eagerly she put aside the sword and ran to the living room.
"My Lady, be careful."
She called out in concern before following Evelyn.
In the living room, Regan smiled when he saw Evelyn walking towards him. He could see the eagerness in her eyes. Was it for him?
