Sometimes,changes don’t come just because of a feeling,or for a disliking about a character someone owns,sometimes it’s brought out of necessity,out of survival.

You had always been a bubbly person,the sidekick of the hero of the kingdom,and also,his lover. You were madly in love with him,you defended his name like it costed you your life,he was perfect in your eyes,until…the cruel truth hit you like a fist on the face.

His promise to never leave anyone behind was broken,and after he had left one of your friends to die,who clung to him crying for the hero to save him,and he just kicked him off like he was an annoying bug,sending him straight into an explosion,just for the sake of saving himself.

After that,you were left traumatised,betrayed,and your love and trust for him left your soul in a moment.

You’ve began to understand what kind of person he was,a selfish,greedy man who did his duty out of self fulfilment for fame and power,and it irked you.

You broke up with him,but still continued your job as part of his team…

But the hero failed to notice that he just left food on the ground for another starving man.

Days after your break up,you were crying in your temple when you heard screams from the outside.

You ran outside,meeting your companions and your ex,facing the terror of the kingdom,Stein,the unwanted prince who made a path with the devil himself to obtain the obscure powers of the evil spirits. He was your ex’s nemesis,and you hated him.

As you prepared your magical attacks,Stein spotted you,and in a swift moment,he had melted into shadows,reappearing in front of you.

You flinched in surprise,until he grabbed your hand,planting a gentle kiss on the back of it,his eyes narrowing as he stared into yours.

“At last,you’ve opened your eyes to see what kind of man your hero was…I have been waiting for this moment for decades.”

He spoke in a stoic,yet almost starving tone,like he was itching for this moment.

You stood there speechless,and so your companions and the citizens.
