Chapter 1

"Get away from me! I don't want to hurt you," Prince Reikel tries to push the girl who hugs her tightly. "In a moment, I will turn into a beast. And once I turn into a beast, I can't be able to recognize you anymore. I might hurt you."

"I don't care, Reikel. I will stay beside you. I don't care whether you're a prince or a beast. And I'd rather be hurt by you than to leave you," said Denria while crying.

"Please let me go, Denria. I can't control myself anymore."

Prince Reikel's eyes suddenly turn red, his black hair turns into white, his red lips turn into black and his nails grow longer just like a witch. From a handsome prince, he transforms into a scary beast who doesn't recognize anyone including her beloved woman. He becomes stronger that no one could defeat him.

"Please, fight yourself, Reikel! You are not a beast! You are my beloved man," cried Denria..

But unfortunately, Prince Reikel couldn't be able to recognize her anymore. So he suddenly chokes her neck and lifts her above him.

"Reikel! Let her go! She's the woman you love the most!" shouted Prince Reikel's father, the king.

"I don't know her! And I don't have anyone that I loved," he hissed. He never let go of Denria's neck.

"Even if you can't remember me, I still love you, Reikel," Denria said while crying. She's almost out of breath because Prince Reikel grips her neck tightly.

"YESHA!! Can you stop reading it so loud? Can you read it silently?" She angrily ask her younger sister whose reading out loud her favorite comic book while giggling nonstop.

"C'mon, Sister Yassi! Don't be a killjoy. I'm almost at the very exciting scene of the male and female protagonist of the story," Yesha replied to her.

"Then you should read it silently or better read it inside your room. Why do you have to read it so loud? You're inside my room, remember? Your voice and that story annoy me a lot."

"Excuse me, Sister. The story of this comic book is not annoying but it's amazing!" Yesha defends her comic book.

"Oh really? How is it amazing? A prince turning into a scary beast but the girl still loves her despite his looks? And he can't even recognize her and wants to kill her but she still loves him. Isn't it ridiculous?" She said while rolling her eyes balls.

"It's not ridiculous, Sister. It's called real love. No matter how scary he looks and even if he couldn't recognize her anymore she still loves him. And in the first place, the man never wanted to hurt her. That's why he pushes her away from him before he turns into a beast so he can't hurt her. Oh, I envy their love story. I really want to meet him in person if only it's possible to happen. And I also want to meet a guy like him," Yesha said with her hands clasps on her chest as if she was dreaming.

"You want to meet a man like him? A man who turns into a beast?" She shockingly ask her. "Are you in your right mind now, Yesha? I think you better stop reading that book or you will end up crazy."

Yesha just rolled her eyes. "Geez! Sister, I think you should experience how to fell in love. So you should know the feeling of being in love and to be loved by someone."

"Shut up, will you? I don't have time for the nonsense things like that. I will not fell in love until I'm not finishing my study, okay?"

"Geez! What kind of era are we in now? Such an old fashion lady."

"Shut up and go to your own room. I don't care if you read it loudly just don't let me hear it or else I'm going to throw it away."

Yesha stands up while pouting her lips and slowly go out of her room and walks to her own room. She can't help but sigh when she's finally gone. She doesn't understand why her sister is very addicted to that comic book. What can she learn from reading that book? It's just a fiction story created by the wide imagination of the author.

Yassi do not disagree with her sister reading that comic book. It's just that she's sometimes forgotten to do her assignments and projects in school because she always puts her comic book as her priority instead of her studies. In the end, their mom always asks her to do Yesha's assignments and projects. She's not annoyed because she was the one who did her school works, she's annoyed because while she's doing her sister's duties she is happily reading that comic book instead of helping her. She can't imagine herself putting in her shoe. She will not be going to like that comic book. Never!

Yassi's arms were numb from typing on her laptop all day so she decided to go out of her room and find some snacks to eat. She go to the kitchen and open the refrigerator. She saw a yogurt and her favorite blueberry cheesecake inside. She just took one yogurt and one slice of blueberry cheesecake and place them on a plate, sit at the dining table and finish her snack. When she was about to go back to her room she suddenly remember her sister whose reading in her room. She took one yogurt and a slice of blueberry cheesecake for her sister so she can have a snack while reading.

Yassi called her name when she's already in front of her room. "Yesha! Are you sleeping?"

No one answers her from inside so she decided to come in and put the snack on her small study table. She saw her open comic book in the bed so she thought that she was just inside her bathroom. She was about to come out when she suddenly thought of an evil plan. She smirk and quickly get her sister's comic book and hurriedly come out from her room.

Maybe her sister will study now once she had no comic book's to read. As far as she know, this book was already sold out so she can no longer buy it anywhere.

Yassi went out to the kitchen and find a lighter so she can burn the comic book. And when she found the lighter, she quickly run to her room and lock the door. She took the stainless trash bin and throw the book inside it. She took a scratch paper, she burn it and put it inside the trash bin so the comic book will burn with it. But to her surprise, the book didn't burn. It remains its original looks.

"What the heck! Is this book had a devil's power?" She couldn't help herself but to ask.

Her eyes were wide open when the comic book opens itself and turns to page one, where the story started. She was about to pick up the book when a dazzling light comes out from it. She close hear eyes because it's so bright that it hurts her eyes. When she feel that the dazzling light was gone she quickly open her eyes only to found out that she's no longer inside her room now, but instead, in another place. What the heck! Where I am? How did I come here? What kind of place is this?
