Chapter 554 Stockholm Syndrome

Villain Ch 554. Stockholm Syndrome 

His thoughts raced as he processed this unexpected turn of events. "Fanfiction about me? Seriously?" he mused to himself.

Allen, curiosity ablaze, closed their gap with hasty steps, eyes fixed on Jane. "Hold up, let's hit pause on the hunting mission for a second. Spill the deets on this whole fanfic situation," he demanded, his tone a blend of eagerness and intrigue that didn't tolerate delay.

Jane was caught off guard by Allen's sudden appearance. She pivoted on her heels, and her expression shifted from animated chatter to an audible gasp. "You startled me," she protested. The sudden interruption disrupted their concentrated conversation, and the girls collectively looked up, their eyes widening at Allen's unexpected entrance.

"I already said I'd be online," Allen responded, a tinge of amusement in his voice.

Jane, sporting an innocent grin, replied, "I thought not so soon," she replied in a playful expression, the mischief evident in her eyes.

Allen, undeterred by the startle he'd caused, leaned in closer to Jane, eager for the scoop. "Come on, Jane, spill it. Fanfics? Seriously?"

Jane managed a mischievous grin. "Oh, we've got some serious tea brewing here," she teased, the amusement evident in her voice. "What do you want to know?" she inquired, ready to lay out the juicy details.

Allen, leaning into the conversation, decided to cut straight to the chase. "Start from the beginning— the website and the story title?" he prompted, his curiosity now front and center.

Jane, delighted by Allen's curiosity, began. "Buckle up, folks! We've got stories on various websites, and the titles? Oh, they're golden," she teased, her enthusiasm infectious as she delved into the intriguing world of Allen-inspired fanfiction.

Bella, unable to contain her excitement, chimed in, "Tell us, Jane! Don't keep us in suspense!"

Jane began unveiling the titles with theatrical flair. "We've got 'Hearts in the Shadows,' 'Dangerous Liaisons of the Heart,' 'Forbidden Desires: A Mafia Affair,' and 'Ensnared by the Devil's Charm,'" she announced, each title dripping with the drama and intrigue characteristic of the romance genre. "All from the same website Webnovel."

"And the hottest of all is... drumroll, please... 'Bound by Blood: The Mafia Boss' Embrace,'" Jane declared, her avatar practically radiating mischievous vibes.

Allen, a mix of bemused and intrigued, couldn't help but chuckle at the dramatic flair of the titles. "Sounds like I've become the mafia boss in that story," he quipped, his tone laced with amusement.

Jane, leaning into the drama, shared her latest findings. "So, guys, I just read the latest chapter of 'Bound by Blood: The Mafia Boss' Embrace,' and let me tell you, it's heating up. The interactions between the main characters are... spicy," she teased, a mischievous glint in her eyes.

Allen, feigning nonchalance, raised an eyebrow. "Let me guess, I've transformed into a cruel mafia boss who unexpectedly falls head over heels for an ordinary, innocent girl?" he ventured, a smirk playing on his face.

Jane, grinning, confirmed his guess. "Bingo! But here's the kicker—the female character is your captive. You personally captured her, and you do as you please," she revealed, her words laden with a playful tone. "Kyaaa," she added a touch of excitement to the atmosphere.

Allen exhaled a long breath. "So, it's Stockholm syndrome," he muttered, processing the psychological twist woven into the plot.

Jane, with a mischievous glint in her eyes, agreed, "Exactly. And let me tell you, the mature scenes in that story? Pure gold."

Allen raised an eyebrow, not entirely sure he wanted to delve deeper into the intricacies of his alter ego's love life. "What kind of mature scenes?" he questioned, his curiosity getting the better of him.

Jane cleared her throat, her avatar seemingly embracing the role of the storyteller. "Oh, it's a very spicy scene. Involves a collar and a short whip," she stated matter-of-factly.

Allen shook his head with a wry smile. "Ah, now I get why you enjoyed it so much," he remarked, his tone a mix of amusement and disbelief.

To his surprise, the reactions from the other girls were not what he anticipated. Bella, unabashedly, stated, "Allen brought a collar and a short whip? Seems suitable."

Vivian chimed in, "Interesting."

Shea and Zoe remained silent but sported a noticeable blush, their avatars betraying a hint of embarrassment.

Larissa contributed, "Maybe it should involve a blindfold for that extra mysterious vibe."

Allen, taken aback by the unexpected turn of the conversation, looked at each of them in turn. "Wait, you guys are okay with this?" he asked, genuine surprise etched on his face.

The girls exchanged glances, a silent acknowledgment passing between them. Smiles, perhaps a touch on the dry side, played on their lips as they turned their gaze collectively toward Allen.

In unison, as if rehearsed, they nodded and chorused a simultaneous "Yes." The synchronized response sent a ripple of amusement through the group, their heads bobbing in agreement.

Allen, who moments ago had been taken aback, now found himself on the receiving end of the collective affirmation from the girls.

"Okay, that is shocking," Allen finally uttered, breaking the momentary silence with a mix of disbelief and amusement. The absurdity of the situation wasn't lost on him, and the girls.

Jane, seizing the opportunity to add a touch of mischief to the conversation, couldn't resist a teasing jab. "So, Allen, are you gonna dive into these steamy tales yourself? I can see you blushing already," she said, a teasing smile playing on her virtual face.

Allen, caught off guard but refusing to back down, retorted with a good-natured chuckle, "Well, maybe, Jane. But not now. Gotta mentally prepare myself for the rollercoaster of emotions that await in those fanfics."

Alice piped up with a curious grin, "Why the mental preparation? Don't you often write them too?"

Allen, with a smirk, replied, " Just prefer to be mentally ready, you know?"

Jane, still teasing, added, "Come on. I know you've got a lot of mature scenes in your writing portfolio. What are you afraid of?"

Allen, with a laugh, confessed, "I do write mature scenes, but it's for my main characters, not me. It's all about adding depth and authenticity to the story."
