Eros's face darkened, his eyes blazing with a mix of curiosity and caution. "You want information on the Crown Prince?" he asked, his voice low and guarded. "Don't you know the rumors surrounding him? The entire empire trembles at the mention of his name. He's cursed, Tainted by darkness."
I nodded, my voice steady. "I know he's cursed. I know it very well."
Eros's gaze intensified, probing for hidden questions,motives. "Then why? Why do you want information on him knowing he's cursed."
My lips sealed, "I can't tell you now. I'm afraid I can't divulge any information on this matter," I said, my expression impassive. My words hung in the balance, precarious and delicate
Eros's piercing gaze searched for any hint of hesitation beneath my mask, but I had it firmly in place.
"Too bad for him," I thought to myself, "I'll keep him in the dark." I knew exactly how to pique his interest.
