"This must be a joke" You darwled, eyes narrowing.

An image of the women with short gows and partially exposed breasts came to mind, and you thought about why you were here. Your eyes widened.

You didn't want to think about the purpose for his visit any longer, instead of wondering about that, it would be more useful to think of a way to escape this place, only for you to hear the woman saying "follow me"
Threatned by pressure all you could do is nodding in response trying to catch up with the lady's fast pace.
Turning sideways as you reached back and pulled the hood of your cloak over your head, even with your entire face and hair hidden, Mag would recognize you. He had the sixth sense of parents or siblings. Glancing back toward the entrance; your stomach dropped when you saw him sitting at one of the tables facing the door-the only exit. Oh god.

You climbed the stairs shortly after stopping in front of one of the several rooms in the large floor, the lady finally spoke "End of the corridor, room on the left"

Giving her a suspicious look, you made your way after she waved you a goodbye whispering you "After he's gone, i'll send notice"

Finally entering the poorly-lighted room ,you struggled to catch up with your breath that seems to rise with each passing moment, you wiped the sweat on your forhead as you removed the cloak and the mask. It was nearly midnight and you were still out, you were apparently digging your own grave.
Upon entering the room,you were greeted by a spacious and elegantly decorated space. At the center of the room, there was a large, sturdy wooden bed frame. Next to the bed, there was a vanity, made of polished wood with intricate carvings. A large, ornate mirror is placed on top, surrounded by small perfume bottles, hairbrushes, and trinket boxes. A comfortable chair with upholstered cushions was positioned in front of the vanity. There was also a fire place near the windows. The place seemed inviting and relaxing. However, what you failed to notice was the male presence behind you, threatening your existence.

There was a sudden snap behind you.
Turning,You saw the dark form of a man coming toward you, his blue eyes shined even in the dimly lit room. The shock of discovering someone so close when you had thought you were alone caused you heart to lurch in a few uncomfortable extra beats if not many.
'This person is dangerous' you thought

Before you could even blink, you felt the cold metal that he possessed touching your neck. You hissed, heart pounding
It can't be a coincidence...that woman from earlier, it must be her.. Instinct told you she had known this
room was occupied. She'd sent you here on purpose.

"Who the hell are you?" His deep voice stated, forcefully grabbing your arm and pulling you back against the door

"I knew i was going to be in trouble" you whispered trying to break free from the man's gasp as you tried to take a closer look at his appearence, he was as tall and brawny as Magnus. Perhaps in his twenties too, his features were
strong and decisively formed, too masculine to be called beautiful, too striking to be ordinary. And his eyes were the rich sky-blue of morning glories, even more intense than his presence. His sun-streaked hair glowed under the faint strays of moonlight.
There was something extraordinary about him, a kind of barely leashed vitality that nearly caused you to fall, the force of it was so strong. You had never seen such a perfect blend of beauty and menace in any other man. Your thoughts were interrupted by his demanding tone that was pushing you.

"Speak"

You suddenly realized the situation you were in. Regardless, you remained calm, not showing any signs of panic "I merely needed a place to hide"

"And that place happened to be the room where prince was staying. Am i right?" He exclaimed "Explain yourself at once, if you value your life"

What is this situation? Why did it make sense until now. The resplendent uniform, the authoritarian tone, his eyes also clearly showed that he was a descendent of the royal family without a doubt. The cruel prince? Regef hill? What was he doing here? You couldn't possibly tell him your true identity nor you could hid it from him. How do you get out of this position. You recalled all the rumors you heard about Regef.
His past was filled with betrayal, murder. He had been temporary confined in the palace for trespassing his majesty's orders. Many
women found his aura of danger exciting, but you weren't one of them...yet
