QT: I Bent The Male Lead

Being the villain meant that he should live by his own rules. That is why they were villains, because they didn't have to do as told or follow rules. Jason didn't see why he was being forced to go with the crown prince.

At that point, it almost felt like the crown prince had become the villain while he was the helpless male lead. Since this was his new life, he decided against going with the flow.

Though all the odds were against him, he had hope that he would be fine. He was not going to break or let the evil flirtatious prince win. He happily packed his clothes, since he was going to the Seam whether he liked it or not.

He made it a point on himself not to give the crown prince the satisfaction of seeing him sad because of it. He arranged his clothes in order, once he was done he sort out Sashina to bid her goodbye.

"What you mean to say is that the crown prince is forcing you to go to the Seam with him?" Sashina inquired of him. "Yea, but worry not as I will return soon to you," Jason replied.

He held her hand in an assuring way with confidence that he would make it back. The prince had promised that he only needed to fear him and not the world. He promised that only he would be the one to harm him.

"That is kind of you to say Sir Darkvale," Sashina uttered softly. "But the Seam is no joke. Many have lost their lives there and once you leave there is no guarantee that you will return alive," she added.

Jason gave her a weak smile. He might not know what the Seam was but he had faith in the crown prince. From the novel he read that was different from the one he was in, he was a man who kept to his word.

And he promised him protection. It had occurred to him that someone was writing a fanfic of the original novel and he somehow got trapped in the fanfic novel and not the original. Which sounded more fun than he would care to admit.

It meant the future was unknown and absolutely anything could happened. He could fall in love with his beloved Sashina and live happily ever after while the prince becomes the villain.

"I am sure that I will return," he said when an idea flashed in his head. Could it be that he had become the male lead in the fanfic. Ever so often villains are written as the good guys in fanfics.

Believing that was not impossible with so many changes in the plot. Everyone knows that the male lead always made it to the end of the novel. Even if he is meant to die, he only does like at the end of the book. That gave him hope that he would come back alive.

"I hope that your confidence brings you back safely my prince," she let out. "Until then, I hope this gives you strength to come back," she added. She gentle kissed his cheek and excused herself to leave. Jason remained still in his spot.

He brushed his hand over his cheek where her like touched, his face flushed red. "I will never wash my cheek ever again," he spoke with a foolish smile on his face.

*****

Sashina walked out of the room elegantly. She spotted the crown prince with his slave walking towards the entrance of the palace.

She rushed over to meet him, it was the first that she had heard of the prince going to the Seam. Being close to the prince of Xeris proved useful, she got an inside information on the mysterious prince.

"Your highness," she called out to him. Davion stopped in his tracks. He didn't turn around and simply waited for her to reach him.

"What happened to your hair?" She found herself asking him noticing the short hair cut on him. Winrus looked at her like she had lost her mind. It was signing one's death warrant to ask about his hair.

"An arrogant brat cut it to pass a massage to me," he replied to her.

"He or she must be crazy to pull one on you," she let out. The crown prince released a frustrated sigh. She indeed was right, the prince of Xeris was the craziest person he had ever met.

Instead of admitting that he just like the rest and couldn't stop himself from falling for him. He used a girl as an excuse for cutting his hair and that is what irritated him the most. "I should get going," he spoke. He had vengeance to deliver on the crazy prince.

"Wait," Sashina dared to hold on to the prince's hand to stop him from leaving. Winrus closed his eyes in prayer for her, she was one daring woman to act the way she was with the prince. "You are going for such a dangerous mission. From me to you," she said and inched closer to the crown prince.

Davidson moved back surprised by her brave advances. Sashina leaned over and pressed her lips on his. The kiss didn't last long and nor was it deep. Just a snap kiss to express her intentions. "I will wait for you, so try to come back alive," she whispered to him.Davion was too shocked to react.

It was so unexpected for her to kiss him out of the blue but he didn't dislike it. In fact, he loved it especially since it hurt a certain someone watching from a distance. He didn't even do anything and he got to see tears in Jason's eyes. It gave him some joy seeing him like that but those tears weren't enough for the ones that he shed.

It wasn't easy to make him cry and when someone succeeded in doing so. He repaid them with more than just a few drops of tears. "I will keep that in mind," he said with a devilish smile.

He embraced Sashina into a hug and flashed the smile to Jason. He blew a kiss and a wink to the male and wrapped his hands around Sashina.

Jason clenched his hands into a fist watching the two of them.. A tear fell from his eyes seeing the prince touch what he considered to be his.
