How could you possibly escape destiny if no matter what you do, it keeps on holding you back? For Reina, who is suddenly trapped in a kingdom at the mercy of a handsome crown prince she is familiar with, survival is the most important-especially if...
Pauwi na mula sa Royal Capital si Reina sakay ng isa sa kanilang mga karwahe nang maalala niya ang babaeng humanga sa kaniyang mga gowns kanina.
Hindi niya alam kung bakit, pero tila ba natutuwa siya at may naka-appreciate ng kaniyang mga pinaghirapang disenyo. Although sanay naman talaga siya sa gano'ng larangan, nag-uumapaw pa rin ang galak sa kaniyang damdamin na kahit sa ibang mundo, may nagkaroon pa rin ng interes sa kaniyang kakayahan at talento na gumawa at mag-tailor ng mga gowns.
Oh wait. The young lady was lost in thought of admirations nang bigla itong may naalala.
Nasapo niya ang noo after remembering something.
Hindi pa pala siya nakabibili ng mga gifts to thank her maids and staffs in the House of Montrigal for helping her adjust and remember who she is as a nobility. She almost punished herself to death dahil kamuntikan niya na itong malimutan!
Aish, Reina, how could you forget important things like this?!Frustrated nitong sabi sa sarili.
Instructing the coachman would surely be deemed useless since he will still ask permission from the guards, so the young lady then shyly peeked her head outside the carriage's window, and looked at one of the guards, giving a pleading look as she points something outside. The guard went on to inform the General guard about Lady Reina's request. The General, quite unsure about this, lets out an anxious sigh.
"Stop the carriages! We'll be taking a quick detour to the merchant's stores in the townsquare as per the Lady's request!"
Kahit nagtataka ay sumunod nalang ang mga ito sa abrupt command ng lalaki. "U-understood, General!"
Nang nakabalik na sila sa townsquare, nasaktuhan naman nilang daanan ang isang eskinita na hindi gaanong dinudumog ng mga taga-imperyo. At iyon ang itinuro ng dalaga sa General guard.
"Let's stop here for a while."
"Yes, Milady."

"I like it here." Aliw na aliw si Reina sa kaniyang nakikita sa paligid.
Hindi niya rin tiyak kung bakit madalang dumayo rito ang mga mamamayan ng Zelvar Empire samantalang bahagi pa rin naman ito ng townsquare. And commonly, townsquares are supposed to be lively. Yes, the entire ambiance is indeed not that much welcoming, but-to be honest, she doesn't even know why she chose to stroll here in the first place. She's just plain curious of what's in here.
Ang totoo niyan, pinag-antay niya talaga ang kaniyang mga kawal sa kanto ng eskinita dahil ayaw sana nito na may naka-asungot at nakabantay sa kaniyang bawat galaw. She already intended to roam the streets alone and come back to the carriage to finally get home, yet...
