.........................................................
Days went by and the anxiety of the fact that the peace of their kingdom was threatened only increased, Jeonghan's message never arrived and it already has been a week since the end of the previous month.

Taehyung by then was certain that he either was caught as a spy or couldn't do it because of the intensified guards surrounding the kingdom, who were not letting a single fly cross the borders without inspection and authorization to do so.
So as much as he was worried for him, he decided to think about a way to come to his help the sooner possible.

The king had sent a request to all the neighboring states including the one under Chinese influence, he never had a word with the new king, the one who assessed to the throne by killing his own blood.
It was the occasion to do so, the only condition that they had was that the reunion should be held at the said kingdom to which Jeon hesitated before agreeing.
He let his general and commanders of the army know about it and even discussed it with them, Taehyung was firmly against the meeting and especially for the weird condition, it was fishy and his instinct told him that it was a very bad idea to comply to it.
The others agreed with him on the fact that it was dangerous to let their governor go to where he'd be at the mercy of a bloody bastard. He killed someone related to him to gain his position even if it was common at their time, someone like that still can be trickily menacing.
Though they had to go according to Jungkook, peaceful handling comes before the use of violence and they were not even sure whether their enemy is really planning to attack them. They told him that he was only driven by his emotions because he haven't heard from his friend and so he was overreacting,
even Namjoon didn't try to resonate with the latter even if he wanted to do it, the younger was ignoring him. Well, the last time they talked to each other turned into an awkward situation.

Jungkook didn't falter, even the convincing that Taehyung did didn't reach him, and the older got mad because of that.

As much as the king relied on the opinions of his army commanders, he trusted his son and wanted to believe that what he came with was the best decision and so he discarded what the worried commander tried to advance during the long three hours of their meeting.

Jungkook might or might have not smirked at him because of the way his father scolded the other with an 'Enough!'
And Taehyung flinched visibly to it, swallowed his anger and apologized for his stubborn behavior and Namjoon held that worried expression on his face the whole time, he pitied the other who looked over stressed,
and a certain person didn't miss the silent interaction between them, of course Jungkook was observant and all but he may have noticed that since he was so focused on the older all the time, what happened around him, his reactions to what others say and the pouty lips he had after getting scolded.

He was behaving literally like a child whose mother didn't allow to go out. And crossed his arms after seeing him smirk, getting irritated even more, it was Jungkook's fault after all for suggesting such a lame thing.
He was so desperate that he looked over the said boy to help him after even his hyungs not saying anything against it, and Jungkook grinned evilly of course

After they were dismissed, Namjoon was about to address the younger and called his name, but the other nervously started scurrying away pretending like he didn't hear Namjoon whose face had a little fading bruise from Tae's slap, yeah his slaps are no joke he always wears his rings, and metal breaking your skin is not the softest of impacts.

The older ran after him and held his arm,
"Tae, please I just want to talk about uh Jeonghan..."
The boy visibly tensed to his hyung's voice since it had been almost a week since they addressed each other. And he wasn't even able to face him without blushing,
He turned around the blush spreading across his face like fire, and so he instinctively brought his hand to rest on his right elbow from shyness.
Namjoon's expression softened and he reached for his heated cheek, Tae didn't flinch away but opened his mouth to speak nonetheless, still avoiding his eyes
"You know I still love Jimin hyung.."
"Sorry about him, I knew you had a boyf-"
"He is not my boyfriend anymore, he is with someone else now"
Namjoon's eyes widened dramatically to the news and he felt something he never thought that he'd feel one day, the joy of a sparkle of hope that suddenly erupted in his chest unconsciously smiling widely,

"You mean... you are single? I have my chance now?"
"No... hyung I still lov-"
He couldn't even finish his sentence when he grabbed him by both shoulders startling him considerably
"No, Tae he left you? You know,.. y-you don't have to wait for him. I'm sure you deserve someone who's gonna treasure you, Tae I swear I'd never throw you away as he did " and that word exactly hurt him, the fact that he was thrown away by Jimin didn't sit well in his mind, sudden anger surged through his brain as he pushed the other
"No!" he shouted not caring that he'd attract attention or anything "I-I was not thrown away! Jimin is just confused I know he is!H-he.. I love him hyung,I can't he's mine and I can't live without him "
"Tae this is possessiveness no obsession, I'm sorry to say this but has he ever really loved you?"
"Yes he did and he does! Please leave me alone, I-I am getting him back, I swear... "Namjoon looked at him with furrowed eyebrows and shook his head at the stubbornness of the younger, he clenched his jaw with teeth gritting and as hot as Taehyung thought an angry Joon is, the older was scary at that moment as he tightened his grip and made it away from him with no other words exchanged.
Tae almost whimpered to that, he still felt guilty about his feelings and the way that he gave in to the older's touch the last time, he felt like he was playing with him. Giving him hope and then crashing it right after which he didn't deserve.

Namjoon headed to the library of course, his safe heaven to get rid of all those emotional thoughts that disturbed his usually composed and focused mind.

He stayed there for about two hours going through pages of books he already read before, reviewing some chapters he judged interesting or important the last time he was on them. He could remember each book he held between his hands,  memorize its main points and the most impressive paragraphs that it contains. One of his intellectual skills.
And it always helped him get back to his self.
As he was so focused on the fourth one, he failed to sense the presence of another person there.
Until of course Jungkook walked to the window blocking the light from the table he was occupying.

He looked up surprised by the unexpected company.
"Didn't know you'd ever show up here prince Jungkook"
"Hmmm" the younger hummed only as an answer and instead of replying to that he looked out the window with a weird glint in his eyes,
"You know, the view from here is really incredible.. I mean you can see literally everything"
Namjoon only nodded "it's a pretty high room that's why..."

"Yeah you should come see the view from here commander, it'd easily take your attention away from that boring book "

Even if he wanted to protest that the book was not boring, Namjoon frowned at the insistence of Jungkook to go see from the window, so he rose from his seat and went to stand besides the raven head whose eyes didn't leave his actions.

After looking around he turned his head towards him muttering a "Yeah, it covers everything. I guess...that's cool" not thinking much he was about to turn around when the voice deep then caught him off guard as the prince spoke again
"Exactly, you could even spot people having affairs or making out when no one is around or they think so... right commander?"

Namjoon was not stupid or dumb and both Jungkook and himself knew that, so what he was implying downed him the same exact moment he heard those words, his eyes widened in fear body going rigid gulping unconsciously as those black orbs fixed him with a 'I saw everything' look,

he turned his head again, eyes unfocused on the outside, he looked exactly to where he and Tae stood the last time they made out, his heart sunk to his stomach as he realized that they could see them from that window, and so after he lingered his gaze out there the memories still fresh in his mind; how he had Taehyung's body in his grasp, the way he kissed him back and the sweet last moment he thought he was having before the younger slapped him... and back to the present, Jungkook saw that, all of it.

He looked down to him, a bitter expression when he saw how unhappy he looked, why would he care though?

"So... not only that, even today I had the opportunity to catch on the continuation of your little session of yours, only this time you were rejected" and then he paused a bit smiling at the older by the process.

"Uhum and as much as you enjoyed it, I'd suggest you drop whatever you want to have with him, it's not a good time for that as it could affect your duties, commander Kim.
I don't want to hear any of this happening again, get it?"

Namjoon seethed with tightly clenched fists, visibly angry
"Sorry you're highness. Not happening again" and then left the prince after he took the scattered books with him.

He knew that if he stayed there any longer he wouldn't be able to help himself from punching the smug looking face of the bastard who thought he could have a say in his private life..

Jungkook smiled triumphantly at the disappearing form of Namjoon, a wide wicked one on his handsome features, he couldn't get it himself,
why he loathed the idea of another man with Taehyung?
Him getting with the older would arrange him as he'd have Jimin all by himself.

But the feeling deep inside of him screamed the obvious reason of him getting all worked up.
He wanted them both at the same time, he wanted Jimin and Taehyung, Taehyung and Jimin. His world would be perfect with the two of them by his side.
He'd be satisfied, appeased to have both the cute servant and sexy commander, to dominate their feelings and leave them a mess after his desires would be fulfilled.
The thought swarmed in his mind so tempting to his imagination. His only problem would be the stubborn brunette, he knew that Jimin would comply to any of his wishes. He was already under his control while as the wild tiger would surely oppose to the idea, his pride wouldn't allow it, or so he thinks.
Jungkook had never seduced anyone before, they usually be at his feet with a single snap of his fingers. Now, he was going to do it if necessary. His plan would work perfectly for their soon departure, they all agreed that the commanders and prince would accompany the king to the meeting as Minho should take care of the kingdom in their absence,
they'd be leaving the next day and maybe then he will have some time with the said commander.

Thanks for reading 🙏

So I have been depressed over studies for two years now and it won't stop. This is making me crazy I swear. College is no joke.
And my friend who got kicked out of this fookin school told me about her roommate (well former roommate now)
She heard her crying even in her sleep because of all the stress
It broke my heart, not all people are strong mentally and the only thing I can do is be thankful to be handling this better than some others who are breaking.
Hope everyone can get over whatever they're being through. I'm so sad about it...💔
