Stop pampering me your true love is the male lead!

"I wish I could keep you chained up in a cage so I could watch you without having to share you with others. But you shine brighter when you are free so I'll just have to remove the eyes of any man that dares to look at you!" 
Leave me alone the heroes are right over there!
