"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?

The next morning, when Evelyn woke up she didn't see Regan sleeping on the bed. In fact, Regan couldn't be found anywhere inside the room.
It was only when the maid came to help her in the bath that she came to know that Regan left the Palace early in the morning with Rex.
"When would His Highness return?"
She asked the maid with a conflicted expression on her face.
"I am not aware, Your Highness."
The maid who was always enthusiastic to ready Evelyn replied politely.
Evelyn sighed.
Last night, she was feeling depressed because she had realized about her feelings which were increasing day by day towards the prince. However, not seeing the prince early in the morning made her feel more depressed now.
She sighed yet again before she moved towards the bathroom.
The maid had already poured the hot water in the bath tub. Evelyn removed her clothes and sat down in the tub.
