QT: I Bent The Male Lead

"Why is she here?" Elayne asked Amaru at the breakfast table. 

She took her sit beside her sister glaring daggers at Freya. Amberly and Sashina raised their heads to look at her. 

Davy and Jason too we're curious about the mysterious woman that had come out of nowhere. Everyone at the table looked at the ice prince and the woman he had with him wondering about her identify. 

It was the first time that the prince had displayed a girl before them. Holding her hand before an audience, it wasn't something he had ever done with the many women that he slept with. 

Jason watched them, his eyes found their way to the male beside him. He wouldn't mind if the man held his hand like that in front of everyone. To announce to the world that they belonged to each other. 

Yet, at that moment that was nothing more than a fleeting wish. The man was mad at him for something that he couldn't even control. It wasn't his fault that the novel listened to him and kept the man from leaving the novel. 

He just wished for it and it happened. Blaming him for that was like saying that he was responsible for global warming. 

"She is here to have breakfast with me. And she has a name, Freya," he introduced her while giving Elayne a reply. 

Smart walked over to the crown prince and pulled a chair beside Davy for Freya to sit on. Freya was speechless, when the man asked her to join him for breakfast, she didn't expect that the man would ask her to sit beside the crown prince of Aphidia. 

Or that the crown prince would remain quite as everything happened. She was an orphan who had to learn to fight and become a killer to put a meal on her table.  She never anticipated in her life that she would ever get to be invited to the royal dinning table for a meal. 

"I'm prince Nedryn," Jason reached out his hand with a kind smile on his face. 

Freya hesitated to take his hand. The man was the reason that she had come to the palace. To kill him, that was the purpose of her entry into the golden gates of the palace. 

Little did she except that she would get to shale the hand of the man she was sent to kill. 

"He is harmless, you can take his hand," Amaru urged her. 

Freya took Jason's hand and shook it. She was conflicted. How was she to kill the man after getting to know him? The reason she killed people at night was because, not putting a face to the person she was meant to kill helped her get through taking their lives. 

Davy glanced at Freya. She looked pretty and had a dangerous aura around her, like a character he had created to be the future queen of Aphidia. That character was supposed to come after the crown prince and since she had a connection to Davion's mother. 

Davion was to welcome her with open arms only for her to shatter his world to the ground and send Jason packing. He couldn't help but frown at the thought that Zillon introduced the second most evil character in his novel into the book as a support for the MC. 

He could see friendship bobds forming between his villain and Jason. It irritated him. Another part of his plot ruined without his permission. 

But in Zillon's defense, the author had just left everything and rushed into the novel without even telling what the plot was supposed to be or what the already designer characters were supposed to be. 

It was a novel in progress which not even he could say what was going to happen next. He was stuck as the ML to his novel without any knowledge of the future of a right to exit the novel at will. 

"Mydrede would have been a better name for you," Davy said to her. 

Everyone looked at him surprised by his remark. It had no base or reason. It came out of nowhere and that is what stunned them all. 

"Yes, your grace. I suppose Freya Mydrede would make a beautiful name," she replied not knowing what else to say. 

"You don't have to pick up that terrible name. I prefer your name just the way that it was," Amaru said. 

He foresaw everyone being rude to Freya but not the crown prince. It was unlike to be dramatic or dislike people so easily. 

The man had no idea that Davy was upset because a villain character that he took three weeks to craft was being used to be a sweet girl that fell in love with an ice prince and supported the mc. 

"Freya is better than that name," Amaru defended.

Freya glanced at Amaru, it was the second time that he was standing up for her. That too to a the future king of the kingdom. It was a bold move that got her feeling like she was flying in the clouds. 

She didn't wish the moment to end, she desired to see him stand by her. 

"I agree with Davion, the name is awful," Elayne stated out loud. "Mine is prettier than hers," she added. 

"That depends of you. According to me, Freya is prettier than Elayne," Amaru said. 

He found himself wanting to prove all of them wrong, he saw something in Freya's eyes that he hadn't seen in other women, he wanted them all to know. 

But rather than giving him the chance to share this with them, they were picking a fight with him. 

It wasbt just Elayne, but her sister and Sashina didn't like the answer that Amaru gave. They all threw sharp piercing gazes at Freya wanting to eat her alive. 

"Shouldn't you say that about your fiancee?" Sashina asked getting irritated about her morning turning into the spotlight for Freya to feel better for herself. 

The fact that Jason easily shook her hand was nice to her, was already a good enough reason for Sashins to hate Freya's gut. 

"The last I checked that was me," Sashina said. 

Freya's eyes fell. Little did she foresee her soulmate to he engaged to someone. It made her feel blue so suddenly. 

"I would if I loved or cared for you. It is no secret to everyone at this table that I despise you to the core," he uttered casually. 

Sashina clenched her first around her fork. She didn't like being talked down on and especially for someone else. It made her look at Freya with a dark glint playing at the pupils of her eyes. 

"I agree with Amaru, the name suits a pretty maiden such as yourself," Jason uttered. 

His words added fuel to the fire of anger that Sashina felt towards Freya. She was bewildered that Jason would call the girl beautiful when he had stopped seeing her as such. 

"Then why don't you do as all a favor and marry her," Davion let out in anger. 

Jason peered at him, he swallowed the words he was going to say next to Freya. Davy was ready so mad at him, he didn't want to make things worse by boldly going against him and supporting Freya. 

Amaru glanced at his friend, he was tongue tied. There was never a time that his friend didn't need him that he didn't leave everything and go to him. 

And he wasn't even asking him for anything and the way he male was reacting shocked him. 

"Have the two of you met before?" He found himself asking Davy. 

Davy stared at Freya, his eyes without any emotions in them, he looked at her with tired eyes. It was like watching a masterpiece paint being displayed in a preschool where it's true value couldn't be appreciated. 

Where the children could draw on it and tear it without a care. That hurt him, he looked away from her and sighed. 

What difference would it make to comment. Things would happen out of his control and he would be forced to go along with them helplessly. 

"No, I haven't had the honor of ever meeting his grace," Freya let out. 

"He hates you and you've only just met. There must be something wrong with you then," Amberly commented. 

"Not something, but all of her is wrong," Elayne added on top of her sister's comment. 

"It doesn't matter how much sugar coating you do Amaru, the truth won't change that she is not a likable person," Sashina let out hatefully towards Freya. 

Jason felt bad. Everyone was ganging up on Freya and it wasn't right. The girl had done nothing wrong and Davy was only reacting that way because he was mad at him, it wasn't fair. 

"Davy doesn't hate her. He is simply angry with me," Jason said in Freya's defense. "You'll see Freya, once I get him to calm down.. He'll go back to being his usual happy self," he explained.
