1 I am a Coward 1

In a dimly lighten room a soft sob can hear echoing in the walls.

Lery Laurens, a noble born young lady whom assigned to be a personal attendant to the royal family, can't hold her emotions as she caress the hair of the lady, weakly breathing on the bed.

"Why haven't you called for my help, your highness?"

A trace of pity and sadness is shown on her face.

The lady slowly opened her eyes and weakly formed a smile. As if to assure the attendant that she's fine.

"These are just minor injuries, you don't need to mind it that much."

But Lery upon hearing this, felt her heart to be broken apart . She can't take it anymore.

"Your highness, you don't need to lie on me. Everybody knows that the other princes and princesses are bullying you!"

"The royal physician didn't even bother to look at your injuries because they said it is just a play between kids!"

Lery continued to express her dismay.

"This is so unfair!"

And tears suddenly came out from her eyes.

Lery Laurens, is the youngest daughter of an aristocratic family from far land of the north.

Being the youngest daughter she must be sent as a royal attendant to tighten their family bond to the Faron Empire.

The first time she arrived to the palace five years ago, she was very scared. Because working in the palace could cause your head if certain violations had been done.

But upon meeting the third princess that she was assigned to. She have nothing to say but praise.

The third princess, Isabel Rigris, was 10 years old at that time. That white hair and beautiful silver eyes accompanied by a snow white skin that looks so flawless and vibrant. Gives her an ephemeral vibe, as if a fairy comes out straight from the story book.

She is very kind and soft spoken person. A smile is always placed on her face.

But after serving her for 5 years, one thing is surely a fact, that Isabel Rigris is cursed.
