Chapter 1

The crown prince Zuan is enjoying his remaining days before the coronation, so he always take a chance to escape from the busy palace to visit the peaceful river.

It was like the other days, the calm river flowed and the trees dance with the wind. What a peaceful surrounding it is.

Zuan sat beside a huge rock. He was about to fall asleep when he heard footsteps. As it draw nearer he stood up and was about to leave but he saw someone running and crushed onto him. The person fell down in front of him.

" please run" the person told him while standing up. Zuan noticed that the man can no longer run and it look like it has a fragile body. He's very bloody too and he has a lot of scratches and bruises.

" No come with me" after Zuan said that someone shot them an arrow luckily it didn't hit anybody. The assasin found them and targeted Prince Zuan.

" Give me the Person or I'll kill you" the man in all black fabric said.

The prince didn't answer so the assasin shot him but The bruised man pushed Zuan to the river and took the aim.

" sh*t!" the assasin murmured and ran away.

" What were you thinking?" Zuan asked him but he didn't answer. He was too tired and no longer have the energy to talk and he was also shot. Before he could speak,his whole vision blacked out.

Zuan brought the man in his palace and have his nurses take care of him.

" Give me the information i asked for"

he asked the nurse. The nurse bowed her head and talked to the Prince.

" His majesty, I believe that he was tortured because of all the bruises we found in his body. He also might throw up later. We found poison in his body so move him to other room if you wish ."

she was dismissed by the prince and the prince entered his room where the man lay down peacefully.

He's a beautiful man, the prince thought and sighed "but what can beauty do when you can't even protect yourself?"

Prince Zuan sat and waited for the man to wake up.

Hours later The man woke up coughing. Zuan who also fell asleep in his position was startled by the noise.

" oh i'm sorry i woke you up" the beautiful man told prince Zuan. Zuan noticed how faint his voice is.

They just stared at each other not knowing what to do, Then The man just started crying.

" a-ahh there you go" Zuan awkwardly pat his head because he lack of knowledge of what to do. He also thought that the man has a very silky long black hair.

" i'm sorry did I hurt you?" then he kneeled down in front of him. Zuan was shocked.

Zuan thought he was staring at him earlier but the man was just recalling what happened. " ahh no you didn't I am the one who's supposed to say thank y-" He was cut off by the man.

" no it's my fault I put you in that position" Zuan can't fully understand what he was saying because of his faint voice.

" shhh just laydown or something.. just dont use your energy, You don't have enough and i can barely hear you. Just tell me your name"

The man sat and nodded slowly. " My name is Hanye" then he look at Zuan.

"can I know your name?" He asked.

"it's Zuan" Hanye nodded and the room was fiiled again with awkward silence.

Zuan was about to ask Hanye what happened but he thought it was to early for that and It could be a sensitive topic for him so he's just going to ask if he wants to eat. Before he could get out the question Hanye threw up in front of him.
