Deal

"Don't worry love, I am sure you will win" Mikasa whispered, her eyes filled with love before she looked down, finally steeling her heart for something.

Just then the professor walked in and our lecture finally started.

As I was immersed in the class, I notice Mikasa writing something on a small piece of paper.

"What are you writing?" I asked as I was not able to read it.

"Nothing, Just a bit of new spell I was learning" She smiled back and I didn't think much of back, moving my attention back to the professor.

After a few hours of learning about the magic that I could not practice because of that accursed tattoo. I was on the border of being frustrated when the professor ended the lecture.

"Finally! I was about to sleep" I saw Mikasa giggling at my joke as we both stood up for lunch. I tried not to think about the upcoming match after lunch.

Mikasa could see the tension on her lover's face and she steeled her heart even more and threw the crumbled piece of paper at Drake when I was not looking.

As I walked out of our class, Mikasa looked back and saw Drake opening the paper and smirking at the content inside.

"By the way Mikasa, I heard that next week the upper section of the library will be open for us as well," I said as we made our way to the mess.

"It was only accessible to teachers before but it is open to all for a few days, you wanna go with me to check it out? Maybe it will have something on....Mikasa?" I noticed her being out of it and tried to get her attention by waving my hand in front of her beautiful face.

"Huh?...oh....sorry...I need to go to the washroom Alex. Girl's business" Mikasa had a strained smile on her face as she looked down not meeting her lover's eyes due to guilt. It was the first time she had lied to her lover.

"Oh...okay" I could feel something was wrong but I didn't push as I saw her turn around and hurriedly disappear from my sight. A part of me wanted to follow her but I rejected the notion as I trusted her so I continued my way to the kitchen.

Mikasa walked like a zombie toward one of the abandoned floors and stopped in front of the boy's bathroom which was abandoned as well as the rest of the floor. She looked serious as she finally stepped inside.

"Mikasa, You are finally here! You really kept me waiting here. So why are we meeting in this abandoned bathroom? Are you perhaps want to confess your undying love for me and leave that trash prince?" Drake still had that smirk on his face which added a strange charm to his dark elf features.

Mikasa took a deep breath as she looked around the bathroom. It was her first time in one so it piqued her curiosity before she looked straight at Drake.

"I want you to lose the fight and let Alex win," She said hugging her body, her shirt almost failing to restrain her boobs, on the border of bursting out.

Drake narrowed his eyes, Although he loved to insult the Prince, he was not dumb. "Why? It doesn't make sense. Alex is powerful and treated as a prodigy. To be honest - It would be a miracle if I actually win. All I was hoping was a tie using my new spell"

Drake stopped as he continued to think, "But maybe....something happened to him" He looked straight at the girl in front of him. He smiled as he saw Mikasa fidgeting trying to act strong.

"Something happened to him, right? The prodigy can't win against me, right? What happened to him?" Drake was now intrigued!

"You don't need to know. Just tell me that you will lose to him and I can pay you whatever you want. You know my father is the highest general in the queen's army. I can easily agree to any of your demands - money, land, house...anything." She asked with a proud and confident face.

Drake smiled with a strange glint in his eyes. He knew that he had an upper position here. He could ask for anything!

'Stupid Girl just served herself on the platter' Drake thought to herself as he replied, "Money? Land? Mikasa, I have everything and don't need more"

Mikasa suddenly had a bad feeling as she saw Drake staring at her as if stripping her using his eyes.

"I want you!" He then pointed at her dress, "I want you to make out with me, let me taste you and I will let your lover win"

'Alex, you might be the prince and might have more talent than me but....you will lose to me in this real battle. I will have your fiancée. Let's begin the fight!" Drake thought as he looked toward the exit.

"What? No way you bastard" Mikasa almost shouted clearly mad about such a lewd deal.

"Think fast Mikasa, A kiss and a bit of touching in exchange for letting your lover win. Just think about it - I will lose and no one will know about Alex's Incompetency" He licked his lips while staring at her cherry-red lips as he couldn't wait to taste her.

"No...No Way" Drake could see the struggle in Mikasa's voice as she replied. He knew she needed a little push.

"You lose! I will just go and thrash him in front of the whole class. It will be fun watching the crown prince being treated like a dog" He started walking toward the exit.

Mikasa's mind blanked as she bit her lips, She didn't want this yet it was the only way for her lover to win the match and hold on to his dignity as the crown prince and as a genius prodigy.

"Wait!" She finally crumbled as she stopped Drake from leaving the male bathroom.

"So you agree to the deal?" Drake had a lewd smile on his face as he stared at his price.

'I am sorry my love. I hope you understand that I am doing this for you....for us' She thought to herself as the last bit of strength left her body.

"Yes" was the only reply that echoed in the bathroom.
