  "What do you mean declaration of war?!"I cried, holding Alastair by the shoulders and shaking him.

  "I meant what I said."He said coolly.

  What in the name of Trinity is this?!There was never a war in the story.The otome game never mentioned it!

  "WHO!?WHAT!?WHEN?!HOW?!"I cried, my words influenced by a random memory of how my teacher used to teach me how to write.

  "Be quiet my lady your parents are still inside."Carina muttered.

  I took a couple of deep breaths to regain my composure.My peaceful life as the villainess ends now! ;-; I'll be sliced into pieces by an enemy's sword!While I was having a mental breakdown on the inside, I had a calm face on the outside.

  "Okay, so please explain further."I told Alastair weakly, my voice sounding like a dying bird.

  Alastair chuckles seeing me like that.Laughing at someone's misery?!What kind of prince are you?!

  "Sorry, it's just so cute seeing and hearing you like this.You sound like a lovable child."Alastair explained, "Anyways, yeah some neighbouring kingdom declared war, so what?Our empire has the strongest mages and militia.They don't stand a chance.Even then, wars are common.It's second on my priority list and your safety from the person planning your murder is my first."

  Wait a minute, since when was Alastair this serious and mature?!I thought he was such a sweet child back then...What he said was so sweet too...Seeing my red face, which was a mixture of shock and being stupefied by Alastair's sweet words, Alastair chuckled.

  "Don't worry, Astraea.I'll resolve the war in one battle so you don't have to worry about me."Alastair said.

  "I'm not worried about you, I know you'll win.I'm worried about the economy and the people."I snapped.

  Alastair's face looks like he was hurt by my words.

  "And here I was blissfully enjoying my fiancé's worry for me, only to find out she was worried for my people."Alastair said dramatically, with a tint of sarcasm in his voice.

  I crossed my arms and rolled my eyes.On the inside, I was debating weather to laugh or continue being disapproving.

  "It makes me proud yet sad at the same time."Alastair added, wiping an imaginary tear off his face.

  "Okay, cut the act.As much as I find your childishness cute, its only a matter of time till I find that it annoying."I replied.

  He chuckled.Alastair puts his arm around my waist seductively.

  "It's nice to know that you find me cute."He says.

  My face turned red.What the literal hell?!Since when did he have this side to him.I've seen his childish side, his mature side, and now this one that belongs in a freaking romance novel?!

  I coughed.Ahhhhh I can't take this!Dumb ikemen!(cool/usually handsome guy)

  "Now here I am finding your reaction cute.My fiancé is the best!"Alastair said.

  My face was turning redder and redder.

  "How come I always end up witnessing these things?"Carina asked.

  The two of us both realised that Carina was still here.Both of our faces turned red.

  "I thought you would leave on your own!"I cried.

  "My lady did not ask me to."Carina replied.

   AHHH dumb otome game world.

  "Read the room!"I cried.
