Outside the palace in a dark alley, a young man dressed in a servant's clothing ran with money in his bag, his eyes wide in fear and determination to escape. He remembers meeting the prince a few days after accepting the prince's offer to expose Lady Myra's affairs in exchange for a bag of coins.
He slipped on the slippery road, where people glanced at him briefly and turned away as if he were worth nothing. His heart pounds, and he forces himself to get up, and he starts running again.
He knew accepting the prince's offer was dangerous, but what choice did he have?
He's tired of living in the palace where he had to keep his head lower before the noble vampires; he would have lost his life a time ago.
This was a dangerous task but an opportunity for a new life.
With a fierce glint in his eyes, he turned in the other direction, but a figure dressed in a dark red robe stood before him, and long golden hair fell down her shoulders, and the figure lifted her head with a cold smile.
