"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.

Rex and Regan were on their way back to the Palace.
Both of them were riding on their horses, side by side. Rex had suddenly slowed down his horse making Regan frown in confusion but he did the same.
Seeing his frown, Rex chuckled and said
"What? You want to hurry in going to your wife?"
Hearing Evelyn's mention, Regan's face suddenly had a lost look. Even if half of his face was covered with the mask, Rex could read his eyes very clearly and he stopped laughing immediately.
"Is everything alright between you two?"
Hearing his words, Regan's lips were pressed in a thin line as he stared at Rex and said
"It is your fault. You did it too much yesterday. What was that 'basking in each other's warmth'? I think you made her uncomfortable."
Rex frowned in confusion. Evelyn didn't look uncomfortable yesterday. He was very careful with Evelyn as he knew about her past. If she was uncomfortable, he would have stopped then and there.
"What did she do?"
He asked his brother.
