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? Especially at the time when horrors of her past shadow her heart __________ This story is a part of the contest so if you enjoy reading, please support to encourage the author.

The War
It was dinner time.
Ezra and Elliot were telling another wonderful story to Evelyn today.
Even the servants standing around were completely immersed in the story. However, Evelyn looked lost in her own thoughts.
"If the war didn't start…then His Highness will come back soon, won't he?"
She blurted out suddenly making Ezra who was speaking stop amidst his words suddenly.
The three knights who heard Evelyn's words sighed as they looked at each other.
"My Lady, His Highness will need to stay there for a few more days even if the enemies don't attack."
It was Elliot who spoke. His voice was soft as he continued
"His Highness is there when we doubt that there can be an attack so he can only come back when we are completely sure that this was only a false alarm. It might be possible that His Highness gets ready to leave and the enemies attack just then."
Evelyn nodded her head in understanding.
