"What if it was the prince who needed saving?"
Not receiving an ounce of love even in his childhood, he became heartless. His cold exterior scared people away, and not to mention his detached, unemotional personality. Haunted by his past, he was used to distancing himself. People viewed him as 'cold-blooded' or 'ill-mannered', but did they ever try to see his side of the story? Never.
That is until she comes along.
The most bubbly, carefree and free-spirited soul in her hometown. Little wild Astraea is her mother's pride and joy.
But will the sunshine be able to melt his cold surface and find the scared little boy hidden behind those striking green eyes?

The Devil's Crybaby
A man stormed in with a gun. She was shot. She lived, but the part of her that trusted life didn't. After that, she became careful. She avoided crowds. Sudden movements made her freeze. She spent more time alone because it felt easier than being around people who didn't understand what had happened to her. Life became smaller, but it felt safer that way. Then one night, someone came for her. He took her from her bed without explaining who he was. He kept her moving, kept her close, and kept his distance at the same time. A man who lived by rules she didn't understand and fear she couldn't escape. Everything about him screamed danger, yet he never touched her without reason. Never spoke more than necessary. He lived for one person only. Everything he did was for his brother. His brother had lost an eye years ago because of him, and he treated that loss like something he could never make right. He followed his brother's orders without thinking about the consequences. When his brother wanted something, he made it happen. Eliza asked questions. Tried to understand what she had been pulled into. The man who kidnapped her protected her but never from the truth. In the silence he left behind, she started filling in the gaps herself. She told herself he wouldn't protect her if she didn't matter. She told herself that the way he stayed close meant something. When she finally learns the reason she was taken, it doesn't come gently. It strips away everything she believed and leaves her facing the fact that she was never chosen. She was a promise. A problem someone else decided to solve. Two brothers want different things from her. One wants to own her. One never planned to keep her. Around them is a world where violence is normal, where people disappear without anyone asking questions, and where some men hunt for reasons that have nothing to do with survival. This is not a story about being saved.

The Prince At Milden Duke Hall Manor!
Once, long ago, there was a prince who seemed to have everything: a kingdom of shining ivory towers, halls overflowing with gold, and the love of his people. His name was Mildern Yazukaze, heir to splendor and majesty. But beneath the crown lay a truth no one knew-Mildern despised the life he was born to. He longed not for riches or reverence, but for freedom: a quiet life beneath the forest canopy, far from duty and deceit. When betrayal reduced his kingdom to ash, Mildern vanished into the wilderness. For years, he lived in solitude, a ghost of a fallen prince hiding from the world, haunted by the faces he failed to save. His tongue grew sharp to mask his shyness, his heart closed to shield itself from grief. But fate would not leave him forgotten. One day, a strange child stumbled into his secluded forest-innocent, curious, and full of life. Against his will, Mildern was drawn back into connection, forced into the role of reluctant caretaker. Together, the unlikely pair embarked on a journey that would test them both. From quiet mornings in the woods to perilous journeys across war-torn lands, from awkward meals to clashes with dark princes, Mildern slowly begins to face the fears that chained him. But whispers of betrayal and war follow close behind, threatening not only his fragile peace, but the world itself. "The Prince at Milden Duke Hall Manor" is a tale of loss and healing, shyness and strength, of a fallen prince learning-through the bond of an innocent child-that even the most broken heart can take a step forward again.Complete
