"I felt betrayed. How could she be the Crown Princess? The realization hit me like a blow, leaving me seething with anger and confusion. The woman I had admired from afar, thinking she was someone simple, was in fact royalty. It felt like the universe had played a cruel joke on me. The irritation gnawed at me, but instead of staying away, I, as if possessed, decided to join the hunting contest. Everyone—my mother, the nobles—looked at me with shock when I announced my intention. But who would dare to stop me? I am the only prince of the Go family.

My thoughts were consumed by her—by the realization that she was not who I thought she was. The more I hunted, the more my anger fueled me. And though my hunt was not the grandest of the day, I still managed to bring down a tiger. The satisfaction was fleeting.
