"What if it was the prince who needed saving?"
Not receiving an ounce of love even in his childhood, he became heartless. His cold exterior scared people away, and not to mention his detached, unemotional personality. Haunted by his past, he was use...

She left.
She left without letting me take care of her, without letting me tell her that I didn't mean anything I said, without letting me kiss the pain away. She just left.
She has a degradation kink which is....fun.
Everything aside, I genuinely hadn't expected her to just stand up and leave right after I had broken her inside and out.
I felt weirdly hollow inside. It felt like a piece of my soul had walked out. She didn't turn to look at me even once. That only added to the burn.
"Zane? Zane!" I snap out of the daze and stare at Bianca, blinking for a few seconds before raising my eyebrows. "What?" "ACE" "What about ACE?" "Zane! Were you even listening to anything I said?" She furrows her brows in annoyance. There's a slight pause before I respond.
"No"
There are a series of groans before Royce taps the table, earning everyone's attention. He clears his throat. "We were talking about the invasion ACE is planning" Roxy groans. "Why are we worried knowing how stupid they are, again?"
Before I can tell her how dumb she sounds, Bridget interrupts me. "Underestimating your rival is your fatal flaw"
All heads in the room turn to her, judgmental looks on their faces. She shrugs. "Just because you think they're stupid, doesn't mean that they actually are.
Felix mutters 'smart ass' under his breath. I lean my head back and tap the table. "And what do you think we should do now?" Bianca leans forward in her chair, her blonde hair ruffling.
"Make peace. It's better for everyone. Give them what they want. I don't see why you need them anymore" Bridget answers with that smart mouth of hers. I clench my jaw. "Don't tell me what to do"
"If we let them go now, you know they're not just gonna forgive and forget. Plus, we have someone very vital out there. Someone they can easily seize" Felix says something wise for once.
"And who might that be? I don't think anyone's more important than the people in this room. As long as we live, I don't see why we need to worry about someone else" That makes me blow.
I turn my head towards her, half of me plotting murder and the other half urging me on even more. I finally speak. "The least important person in this room is you. You're my fucking PA. Act like it. I fucking swear to God if you say one more word about this, I'll rip out your vocal cords"
She looks shocked at my words, but quietens down. The room suddenly seems more peaceful and civilized.
Royce sighs. "She won't let us protect her. She barely even wants to see us" Felix's eyes are hard when he looks at me. I look away.
Finally, I stand up. "Felix, inform the members of the council about this. Bianca, Roxy, ready the revolvers. Royce, do what you're best at. Keep an eye" I then turn towards Bridget. "Follow me"
