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.

Rex Goes To Alfaros
Perhaps Regan could feel Rex's fears and hence he finally answered regardless of how unwilling he was to speak. Somewhere Regan knew that Rex also didn't trust Evelyn's loyalty to him. As much as he disliked this, Rex was also his brother. Even if they didn't share the same mothers from birth, Rex was and would always be his brother. He just didn't wish to speak because he was afraid that he would say something which Rex wouldn't like.
However, at this moment, he answered Rex's question indirectly
"He said that he can't punish Rafael for whatever he did because Evelyn is just a slave."
Rex went silent at that.
Actually, his father was right. Though it was cruel to Evelyn, his father couldn't really punish Rafael. If he did then the nobles in the Royal Court could question his decision.
Punishing a Royal Prince for a slave was something that was never heard or seen.
