"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?

Evelyn raised her head and looked at the beautiful girl standing in front of her.
The girl smiled at her politely. Evelyn nodded her head though quite hesitantly.
After seeing Laurel, she didn't have any good thoughts about noble ladies. She felt as if all of them will only look down on her because of her past.
However, the girl in front of her smiled widely on seeing Evelyn's nod and stepped closer to her. Evelyn could feel the sincerity in her smile...something that stopped her from saying no.
She saw that the girl even signed a servant to come closer and then she picked a pastry from the plate he had in his hands.
As Evelyn watched her eat the pastry eagerly, she couldn't help but feel amused.
The girl noticed her gaze and stopped eating suddenly. She smiled but a little awkwardly this time and said
"Heheh…Forgive me Your Highness for being so rude. I was feeling hungry so…"
"It's alright."
Evelyn said softly.
