Chapter 1 - Prologue

The church bells start ringing while the people scream and clap their hands to support the loving newlyweds, it was their Emperor and their now Empress who just finished their wedding ceremony.

People are looking forward to how this lovely couple will change the empire but they are pretty sure it will be a good change. Since they are married out of love nothing can go wrong, the sun finally found its moon. So from now on, the empire will be having a lot of new victories and success.

"They are so excited, up until to the prison cells you can hear them scream" a lady inmate bluntly said and just boringly bite her bread

"Their joy doesn't concern us so don't bother complaining" another lady inmate said and they just keep quiet while eating their bread

"Hey! Noble Lady!" they call as they look at the first cell

"If your not gonna eat your bread give it to us" the noble lady gave them the bread without hesitations, making the two shut up and keep eating

The noble lady looks up to the small cell window, as she peeks at the window the sunlight touches her face making her pink long curly hair shines.

"I wish you all the very best" the noble lady whispers to herself

As she continue to peek, she was able to glimpse the people's faces, they were smiling as if it was the best thing that ever happened in their life. Then suddenly tears start dropping from her eyes, she cannot deny the fact that she's in pain right now.

'How unfair' she thought to herself

"Lady Anastashia" she look back to see who called her

"Duke Rian" it was one of the Emperor's mad dog

Duke Rian Tresvant, one of the most trusted friend of the Emperor and also the Leader of the Empire Knights. He is known for his nickname 'Emperor's Watchdog' making him the most worst enemy that you can ever have.

"Please take care of the Emperor for me" she walks towards him

"That's my original duty, you don't need to remind me" he offered his hand to the lady

"I hope you also take care of yourself too Duke" she just stand in front of him and didn't bother to take his hand

"If I found a solution for your curse I will come to you, I promise" she smiles weakly at the duke who taken back his hand

"Why would you do that?" he asked and she touch one of the cell bars

"Why not? You are also my friend" ice start coming out of her hands, the cell bars are being frozen by her powers

"Are you going to escape?" he bluntly asked and she just smile bitterly

"Yes and don't try to stop me" the temperature in the prison is getting low, the other inmates starts getting cold

"I won't... I just want to see you off" He hold her hand to stop the ice from getting all over the place

"I see then... I bid you a farewell Rian" she let go of the bars and look directly into his eyes

Then suddenly it felt like the time froze. To be exact, everything and everyone froze except from the two of them

"Rian thank you" she smiles sweetly at him

The noble lady disappears right in front of him, what is left are just ice butterflies that are melting in a little touch of the sunlight, one butterfly approached the Duke and he welcomed it. The butterfly sat in his fingers while slowly flapping its ice wings, he smiles sadly while looking at it

"Lets meet again Anastashia" He walks out of the prison and the butterfly also followed him outside, as he steps on the sight of the sun the butterfly instantly melt as if it doesn't existed in the first place.
