Towards noon, a female servant walks into Princess Anastasia chambers to offer her Lunch. She's about to leave as Anastasia demands she stays. I need a favor from you If you don't mind? As you wish 'your Highness'. I'm all ears. the female servant replies. There's a task I need you to carry out secretly for me. Can I trust you? Of course you can. Replied the servant. Come closer. Princess Anastasia instructed. The servant moves closer as Anastasia quietly whispers into her ears.

It has started to get dark. Anastasia gets ready to escape through the window of her chambers as her friend Christiana passes her a thick long rope which she easily uses to climb down unhurt. They both sneaked out of the castle unnoticed as they head towards the town in excitement. Anastasia exclaimed delightedly, "I finally made it out here alive"! I thought I was going to die of boredom. Christiana feeling concerned. I hope this was a good idea by sneaking you out of the castle. His majesty will have my head if anything were to happen to you. Anastasia assures her. You don't have to worry Christiana. I can take good care of myself. After a tiring long walk, they're about to reach Christiana home as they're suddenly surrounded by a group of thugs. Christiana begins to panic as she speaks nervously. This is so not my day! Leader of the thugs smiled, aren't you ladies gorgeous? How about you both spend the night with us inside our tavern and we will let you off without a scratch? Anastasia angry as she speaks out boldly. How dare you say such despicable thing to to us?! Do you have any idea who the hell I am?! Leader of the thug upset as he drags her roughly towards himself and tries to kiss her. Almost immediately, Anastasia heart begins to beat abnormally as she gasp desperately for air. Leader of the Thug exclaimed in panic. She had got the disease! We need to get the hell out of here! They all left the arena in haste leaving Anastasia to her fate. Christiana in tears as she tries to get her unconscious friend to wake up.

Anastasia wakes up to find herself in a strange cottage. She quickly got up from the bed she has been lying on and tries to sneak out of the room quietly. Going somewhere? A masculine voice is heard. Princess Anastasia amazed at the strange and handsome looking figure who had suddenly appeared in front of her. She stared enchantedly at him as she smiled hypnotized by his aura. Suddenly, she remembered the thugs who attacked her and her friend, Christiana. You're among the bad guys who attacked us on the street, aren't you?! She yelled at him. What did you do to my friend?! How did I get here?! What is this place?! Where the hell am I?! she begins to freak out. My father isn't going to spare you if anything is to happen to me! It will be in your best interest to set me free this instant!. The strange guy takes a step towards her as she exclaimed in fright! Don't even come close or else?! she threatened. The stranger makes fun of her. Perhaps, you will lose your breathe again, when I do..... He smiled seductively as he immediately grabs her on the waist and stares deeply into her charming dark eyes. You were saying? Princess Anastasia nervous as she replies him. How come my heart isn't reacting to you? Who the hell are you?! she blurted out!
