You are Princess of Dragda. Your father often has different Counts, Dukes, and Earls coming in and out of the castle for business meetings.

As his father had passed away a year ago, Brenneth Creith became Duke of the north. He was one of the youngest Dukes in the kingdom. He's been coming more often to the castle to speak with your father, the king.

You always catch his piercing blue eyes on you, although he scarcely says anything to you. He is practically as cold as the north.

Your father orders you to escort him out of the castle one night. Before you get to him, a servant runs into you. Annoyed, she shoved you out of the way. You apologize and quickly go in your way to find Duke Creith.

You can't find him anywhere. As you're about to give up home, you see him holding the servant by his neck. His blue eyes are filled with wrath and fury.

His voice is low and dangerous as he says "If I so catch you daring to either look in her direction again, you won't catch me being so merciful ."

You gasp, and his head quickly snaps to look at you. His gaze softens, although his eyes are still intense. "Princess."
