QT: I Bent The Male Lead - Chapter 32

Winrus rushed into the room hearing the prince called out to him with anger. He knew that he was wrong in the way he spoke to him and expected to be punished. He deserved it and wanted it.

It was hard being the prince’s slave. The King had almost killed him when he returned and said to the king that his son was lost. The King was unpredictable and before his unpredictability got him killed he chose to distance himself from the king.

He walked into the room with his head lowered. If he was lucky then the prince will get a new slave to take his place.

“You poor thing. What did the king do to you this time that you are so moody?” The prince asked him.

Unlike the lecture he had expected, the prince didn’t seem mad. The picture looked at him as he always did, treating him not as a servant or slave but a friend.

“He hanged me with a rope to my neck and ice at my feet in the sun,” he informed the prince.

“Order some tea, how dare the king trouble, my sweet Winrus,” he let out shaking his head in pity.

“Unacceptable,” Amaru added.

Winrus closed his eyes in frustration. The prince was angry to the roof a minute ago, but at that moment he was calm and unfazed by his earlier attitude.

He figured the crown prince must have yelled and gotten his anger out on the prince of Xeris. His plan was ruined all because of the enmity between Jason and Davion.

It didn’t occur to him that he didn’t vent his anger to calm down and that he and Jason could have done anything in his absence. It was wrong to bully a guest and he figured that was why Amaru asked to leave in case the king asked for a witness.

Jason was seated upright on the bed acting naturally. As natural as one could act after having floated in clouds of pleasure. He could still feel a tingling sensation on his lips as a reminder of the kiss that he and the prince shared.

‘It was bad enough dealing with him. He had to go and bring his famous friend,’ Winrus complained in his head. Feeling dreadful. The last time the prince of Zoltar was around, the women of the court were all driven out of their minds by his charm and beauty.

It became his job to shoo away all the women that he had played with and no longer wanted. He was just a slave with no martial arts training, the difficulty of the task made him dread working in the palace.

Keeping away ladies from noble families with titles that gave them right was no joke. He was just a slave against nobles and the man was just a boy of eighteen back then let alone now when he matured into a fully grown man.

He could already hear the screams of the ladies fangirling over Amaru from the distance and pestering him to pass along a message or gifts to the male-only to be asked to keep it or throw it away by the receiver.

“After that, you can seat with us. I have missed you Winrus,” Amaru said.

Winrus scoffed. The only thing the prince missed of him was his information on the ladies currently in court and which of him are his type. He just wants juicy details on targets to approach and by approach, it meant sending his poor slave self to talk to them.

“I didn’t miss you. I won’t seat with you,” he said and rushed out of the room.

Amaru and Davion laughed at him as he went out of the room. The crown prince felt very happy, with him the male always put on a thick skin, he was glad that he could find someone that would send the man running away so fast.

“What took you so long to return to my life,” he let out pleased with Amaru’s skill to shoo off his biggest morning problem. Now he could rest as much as possible without being annoyed to ends by Winrus.

“I had women in my palace I couldn’t move away from,” Amaru replied. He was the prince famous for his playful ways with ladies, fathers around the four lands kept their daughters away from him and kings warned him against the princesses.

The worst part was that despite all their troubles, their daughters are the ones that came running to him. He didn’t even have to chase them and they come rushing to him to give him whatever he wanted.

“You and your women,” the prince said.

“What about you and the Prince?” Amaru pointed out referring to the kiss he and Jason shared.

The crown prince fell silent for a few minutes. He didn’t comment on the statement that Amaru made. He too didn’t understand why with Jason things were different.

He wanted more than just flirting. He seemed to be attracted to the male more than needed. It was growing strong in his heart and with it, his need to possess him was also growing stronger.

The passionate kiss was a sign that he had moved past many boundaries with Jason.

“Your highness, your tea is here,” a page announced from the door.

“Come in,” Amaru ordered.

The maids of the palace walked into the room with the tea and snacks for the three princes. They set down the teapot and the snacks on the table and exited the room.

“Announcing the arrival of Sashina Albar, daughter of the duke,” the page announced. The doors opened revealing the beautiful lady.

Sashina wore a sweet and gentle look on her face as she walked into the room. She carried a box in her hands, she headed straight for Jason with the box.

“This is for you my prince,” she said with the corners of her eyes watching if the crown prince was watching. She wished to see if the crown prince will get jealous of her showing attention to Jason.

“Thank you,” Jason let out happily. He was amazed by how wonderful his day was going. He was on fire with all the love he was receiving.

Davion’s mood darkened. He stared at Jason and Sashina with anger in his eyes. His reflection appeared in all the mirrors of the room. His hair was messy and scattered inside the mirrors, his eyes were bloodshot.

The one in the mirrors screamed death for Sashina for daring to go after something that he liked.

Sashina brought her hand to her neck. It felt like there was no airflow in her throat or lungs. She was suffocating.

“Davion, something is wrong with her,” Amaru noted waking him up from his haze. When Davion blinked Sashina could breathe again.

“Mirror prince,” the crown prince heard a whisper in his ear.
