[ Seventeen Years Ago ] In the King's large resting area, the royal families and the Princes' teacher, headteacher Ralph were gathered there. The young Princes and the Princess sat on the left hand side, headteacher Ralph sat at the right while the King and his wives sat at the center. The King's second concubine cuddled the little prince, Asher on her lap. Headteacher Ralph was here to give reports about the princes' study to the King. It was more like an annual report whereby the headteacher would give reports on the princes performance for that year whether they did well in their studies or not. On a norms, this annual report was only meant to be heard by the King but today, the King had instructed his children and his wives to be gathered to hear the report. Headteacher Ralph got up from his seat and stood at the center, he bowed at them and began to give report on their performance, he started with the First prince. "The First prince is a really good listener and he always

Liam looked at May a.k.a Audree who was trying her best not to raise her head to look at his face. She had just called him a heartless prick and yet she could not even look at his face. He moved even more closer to her but she quickly stepped back to avoid his gaze causing him to let out a loud sigh as he arched his brows in great displeasure. "Are you scared of me?" His deep voice made her raise her head to look at him but she quickly averted her gaze from him. "No." May simply replied then she walked away from where she was as she could not stand his piercing gaze on her. Why was he even staring at her making her uncomfortable? She did not see Liam's lips curved into a smirk the moment she walked away. "You have the nerve to walk away from your Master." Liam spoke as he slowly moved away from his spot. May sighed as she rolled her eyes, this Third prince was really a pain in the neck. "No, i wouldn't dare." May said as she forced a smile. "My boots over there." He pointed

The day had finally gotten darker, night had come for May to execute her grand plan. She carefully put down the blanket she was tucked in and slowly climbed down from the bed creeping out of her chamber so as not to awake Arin who had fallen asleep while watching over her. As she came out from her chamber, she tiptoed to the living chamber walking quietly like a ghost so as not to alert anyone that she was about to run away. And when she successfully came out from the house, she heaved a sigh of relief but quickly went to hide the moment she saw her stepbrother and some guards smoking. Were they not supposed to be asleep by now? She asked herself as she watched them turn their back at her, their backs were now facing her, this was the time for her to run. Slowly and quietly, she crept out from her hiding place making sure that none of them noticed her presence and as she was sure she had gone far away from them, she took to her heels, running as fast as she could to get to Love brid

Standing in front of a big building named as the big library, May finally heaved a sigh of relief. Thanks to that young man, she was finally able to get here. She entered the library and she was totally amazed at how large and elegant the library was. No wonder, it was called the big library because it really was big. She glanced at the myriads of books neatly and perfectly arranged on numerous ancient shelves and she could not help but wonder what all those books on the shelves were all about. She moved to a shelf and dropped the heavy load of books on the floor. Geez, her hands were already reddened all thanks to the Third prince. She began to place the books on the shelf even though she was not sure if she was putting them in their rightful places. She still could not stop thinking on why the Third prince had this much books in his resting area, he didn't look like a studious person. She shook her head as she could never understand that man. "The Third prince is just being the jer

They stood there staring at each other, none of them said a word as they were both flustered at what had just happened, or maybe she was the only one who was flustered. It happened so fast that May could not even begin to process what had just happened or how it had happened, all she knew was that she.... she had just kissed him! No, it was a mistake, it was not typically a kiss, their lips only brushed against each other. She could not even tell what the Third prince was thinking as he had an expressionless look on his face. Heh, she would just break this awkward silence and tell him it was a mistake. As she opened her mouth to speak, he beat her to it. "Did you just make a move on me?" He asked as his lips curved into a devilish smile ready to tease her once again. "What?!" She exclaimed shocked at what he had just uttered. She could not believe this guy was trying to. . . . Oh, Lord! He was really unbelievable! "You just kissed me." He said as his lips twitched. "I. . . I. .
