"You can only trust yourself in a world full of mask"
I am supposed to be my father's successor. But, I disobeyed his only rule— trust only yourself. I trusted someone who should never be trusted. Stupid— someone would say. I know. But, who could blame me? I was just seven years old by then. I remember, it was just months after father's death.
A crown turned into a stone, I must say.
Yet, who could have expected?
"You bastard!" Ah, I still remembered what he called me at his last breathe; as I struck his own sword— no, my father's sword upon him.
"Goodbye, brother." At least I bid him a farewell.
Although I'm the only heir left, the Vance household didn't recognize me as their leader. Instead, they treated me like a little heir. A little prince who can't handle everything bestowed upon him.
Until...
"Say that again, wimp!" That so called 'princess,' changed the game.
At that moment, I learned how to talk back.
"Bratty princess." Everyone around me looked at me with shock on their faces.
"You..." She looked at me with blazing eyes.
Until now, I can't believe that frail princess can already compete in my level. I guess that's what you call character change.
I remembered how she cried and ran towards her nanny. She swore that day that she'd defeat me one day, and prove to me that she's not what I think she is. I wonder when will that happen?

Well, at least now, they know what I'm capable of. But, why am I still a dethroned prince after everything I did for this family?
