The Ice Prince & His Moon (3)

Jin woke up earlier than usual he was making his breakfast before Jimin came over to him, he is also one of the royal guards, but his job is to guard the castle at the west gate.

"Hmm, what did you make for breakfast? smells good," Jimin approached Jin who was in the kitchen.

"I'm just making Ramyeon, it's really cold outside," Jin said.

"Is this place ever warm? I don't think so" Jimin said.

"Yeah you're right," Jin said.

"I heard that today the princess of the Arcelia kingdom is coming to visit," Jimin said.

"Ahh princess Nayeon?" Jin said.

"Yes, her beauty has been recognized by many people, but somehow I can't see the beauty that people see in her," Jimin said.

"As a princess of course she is beautiful, did she come with her parents?" Jin said.

"I don't know, I only heard about it from another guard, maybe it's about their wedding," Jimin said and Jin suddenly fell silent.

"Jin? I think your ramyeon is ready, why are you daydreaming," Jimin said, and Jin, who realized that immediately turned off the stove.

He had never heard of any matchmaking during his time working to look after the prince, why hadn't it reached his ears sooner? does that mean Prince Jungkook will soon marry Princess Nayeon?

After breakfast, Jin immediately rushed to prepare Dream, since Jungkook would be riding him, he also made sure that Holy and the other horses had breakfast that morning.

"Dream listens to me carefully, I know you always do well, but please be more careful this time because the prince is not well, okay?" Jin stroked the horse's head before taking it out.

He saw Prince Jungkook also just came out of the castle, he looked very handsome that morning, and his legs already looked much better even though he still had a slight limp.

"Where's your horse?" Prince Jungkook said.

"I'll take it, your Highness," Jin said.

"If you are comfortable with Dream you can ride him, let me ride Holy," Prince Jungkook said.

"Oh it's okay your highness, you just fell from Holy so you better ride Dream, let me ride another one, Dream is more friendly than the others," Jin said.

"Okay, I'll wait for you in the forest," Prince Jungkook said and he left with Dream. Jin returned to the stables and there were only two horses left, Holy and Bubble. The brown horse didn't look friendly because Jin never rode it, but he couldn't take Holy because it belonged to the prince.

Jin went into Bubble's cage, he tried to stroke Bubble's head to make him trust Jin, even though his attitude didn't look aggressive, Jin had to be careful with Bubble because he wasn't used to riding him.

After 20 minutes of waiting, finally Jin came with Bubble, he saw the Prince was waiting for him in the middle of the forest.

"Why are you taking so long?" Prince Jungkook said.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness," Jin said.

"Follow me," Prince Jungkook said and Jin followed him, he went towards the waterfall, that place is the border between the Terrasen and Arcelia kingdoms, although it is bordered by waterfalls and rivers, the difference between the two is very visible, that place doesn't have snow like Terrasen, its kingdom is warmer because the sun always shines on that place. Arcelia is also called the altar of the sky, by other kingdoms and their people.

"Your Highness, what are we here for?" Jin said.

"Do you know what kingdom it is?" Prince Jungkook said.

"Yes your Highness, that is the kingdom of Arcelia," Jin said.

"You're right, they will come here this afternoon," Prince Jungkook said and Jin just lowered his head, he already knew that earlier from Jimin.

"Maybe they want to discuss your wedding with Princess Nayeon, your highness," Jin said and Jungkook turned to him.

"You know about that?" Prince Jungkook said.

"Yeah, I heard about it from the other guard," Jin said.

"In an era like this, arranged marriages still apply?" Prince Jungkook said.

"But your parents must have a reason for that, Princess Nayeon is also very beautiful and smart, she is also known for her warm heart, which suits you very well," Jin said.

"Oh really? do you think she suits me?" Prince Jungkook said and Jin was silent, to be honest, he wanted to say no, but that was impossible.

"I haven't told my father anything about this, but I don't like this arrangement, I mean, I don't want to marry by force, if I have to be with her, let me and her get to know each other, that would be much better than forcing me to marry her right?" Prince Jungkook said.

"Many princes like Princess Nayeon, there are many reasons to like her, but why don't you have one reason for that, your Highness?" Jin said.

"I only met her once, when my father asked me to marry her, it was too sudden for me, she is beautiful I admit that, but being pretty is never enough, after all, I've seen someone much prettier than her," Prince Jungkook said.

"Then what are you going to do, Your Highness?" Jin said.

"I'm not canceling the match for now, I'll try to get to know her," Prince Jungkook said and Jin just sighed before lowering his head.
