"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.

Evelyn was walking across the corridor wondering if she should really go to meet Hannah.
Hannah might be busy doing her own chores inside the kitchen. However, a few moments later she was surprised to come across Hannah.
The girl was hiding behind a wall and she seemed to be constantly peeking at something silently. She also saw how her shoulders were trembling from time to time.
Was she crying?
The thought made Evelyn worried and she immediately walked towards Hannah.
"Hannah"
She called out and Hannah swiftly turned around to look at her with wide eyes.
Hannah's face was pale and she put her finger on her own lips signing Evelyn not to talk. Evelyn was confused to see her panicking so much.
She saw how Hannah peeked across the wall again. It made Evelyn curious to know what she was looking at.
