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 End
(A Week Later)
Evelyn was standing beside Regan as the Royal Guard announced the arrival of Rex and Derrick.
Today was Rex's coronation ceremony.
The current Ruler and the soon to be one ruler were going to enter together.
The ministers in the court were standing. Almost everyone was present in the Royal Court except Prince Richard.
Derrick had ordered him to stay inside his chambers because of the scene the prince made in the banquet.
Evelyn was glad. Although according to her, Richard deserved a more severe punishment, she knew that this was the best he could be given because of his status.
She smiled and let the sadness disperse away when she saw Derrick completing the ritual for making Rex his legal heir to the throne.
Derrick gave a sword to Rex and made a declaration which was signed by him as well as Rex. The small ceremony was hence completed like this.
Evelyn thought that everything was done.
But she was left surprised when Derrick made an announcement.
