A slap to her pudgy cheeks, moments ago merrily munching on an apple.
A jab to her guts, past the battered bag that held a few more stolen apples.
A trail of kicks to her chin and nose, now as red as those fresh apples.
And a harsh tug to her hair, moments ago treacherously tangled between the tree branches of the stolen apples.

Did the Apple tree sought revenge? She wondered.

Hurt. Aching. Helpless.

Tears of silent prayers trickled down her bruised cheeks as she softly mumbled a string of apologies to the stolen apple tree.

The crowd stared. Not a hand to help. No one to take her to the healers. Not even a soft, "you can sleep now" or a concerned " Does it hurt too much?" They just watched.

"Am-amma, " She called out, hoping her whisper would somehow reach her mother's ears and tug at her heart to come back to her now. "C-come back"

And a comforting dark embraced her in its cold arms, before the last she heard was a distant voice booming, "ARE YOU ALL BLIND?! " And soon it faded off too.

She woke up to the aroma of freshly cooked Bulgogi wafting in the air, teasing her nostrils and watering her mouth, forcing her aching limbs to wake up somehow.

Wrapped in long lanky fingers, arrived the said feast, and she slowly trailed her eyes to their owner before she could begin digging in. Eyes comically wide, lips fumbling for words-

"Y-y-your h-hi-highness? " She breathed out.

"Eat up," Taehyung warmly smiled, "it's not every day the king offers you bed and breakfast"

"Why not? " She really had to learn how to sew her mouth down. Raising an amused brow at the sudden spurt of confidence for a girl as small as her, he replied, " Because not everyday do you get beaten up badly enough for me to carry you to the healers and nourish you"

" Fair, " She munched on her breakfast, grabbed from his hands just a few moments ago. " But what about the apples? " She inquired, suddenly alarmed.

"Apples? " He repeated.

"Yes," She nodded, head lowering in guilt "The ones I stole. . . "

" You do know that it's wrong to steal," Taehyung softly questioned her, " Don't you? "

"I do, " She mumbled, swallowing her last bite, " But amma said there was nothing to eat, and I was so hungry- a-and, I stole them "

" Hmm, " He hummed, " But the next time you're hungry, and amma says there is nothing to eat, come and ask me, okay? "

"But she isn't here anymore-" She mumbled softly, now fiddling with the remnants of the bulgogi.

"Why?" He quirked a brow at that.

" She ran away, before leaving me alone with those big bad alphas who beat me up when I said I didn't know where she was, " She replied, not looking up.

"Where was your appa? " Taehyung asked, scanning her healing wounds.

"He is not with me," She replied, "Amma said he was visiting God and wouldn't be with me for a very loooong while"

"What does your mother do, bun?" He asked.

" She sel-sold fruits," She replied correcting herself, " But now i don't know anymore" Her lips drew up to a small pout.

" Do you want to know? " He asked, meeting her brown orbs.

Soft features, accompanied by a beautiful brown skin, still youthful with pudgy cheeks and wide brown eyes that twinkled, she shook her head, in turn shaking her loosely tied black locks, almost comically declining the offer.

"Why not? " Taehyung exclaimed in surprise.

" She ran away, " She explained, animatedly moving her hands along, "Knowing she is not safe here, right? Then she must be safe wherever she went. And that's enough" She smiled, a toothy grin.

"I hope she will be, " Taehyung reassured while a sense of warmth for the little girl before him brimmed up his heart. "I do"

" Thank you, " She smiled wider, if at all that was possible.

" Do you want to be too? " Waving off her gratitude, he asked.

"Huh? "She tilted her head in confusion.

" Do you want to be safe too? " Taehyung repeated, this time more elaborate, "From those big bad alphas? " Eyes never leaving her chocolate ones, he asked.

"Can I? "

"Why not? "

"Do you know how to?"

" To be safe from those big bad alphas? "

"Yes! " She eagerly nodded.

" I do, " He chuckled.

" Then you can fight them off for me! " She exclaimed, eyes wide.

"I can, but if I do," He drawled, taking a dramatic pause he continued, " What about those big bad alphas who might beat you up when I'm not around? "

" Why? You will leave me too? "

"I won't, but I can't be with you always either"

"Why not? "

"Because I have duties to attend to"

"What about my mate then? Will they stay? "

"Of course they will!" Taehyung smiled.

"So won't they keep me safe? "

"What about until they arrive?" Taehyung asked, " What if those big bad alphas do you harm before they come? "

"I -I -um-"

" So now tell me, bun, " He softly asked, "Would you now like to learn how to be safe on your own? "

"Yes yes! I do!" Her black locks swayed along, as she frantically nodded in agreement.

"Then hop on, " He kneeled before her, offering her a piggy back ride with a warm smile. Something Taehyung's lips were almost foreign to.

"A piggy back ride!" She squealed before clinging onto the 13 year-old prince's back for dear life, as he carried her all the way to the palace which in no time became her home. Her safe place from big bad alphas who never returned to beat her up again or ask her lost mother's whereabouts.

Ryejin stared at the bowl of Bulgogi before her. Smiling wide to the memory that followed, now knowing answers to questions she never asked, or more like Taehyung made sure she never bothered to.

Bruised and young, she had entered the Kaatru palace on one of the most royal seats that she could be offered as a giggling mess, courtesy to the 13 year old Prince's poor attempt at humor to entertain her during their long tread. Munching on her nostalgic breakfast, she wondered which prince would bother a backache without a complaint for an obnoxious reward as her in return. Only her dear brother would.

" Look in their eyes, " He directed, eyes never leaving hers as he spinned the sword wrapped in his left hand, " Look for truth in them not the defence walls, search for where they aim not the hatred or lust"

Being the pain in the ass that she was, she had refused to train from anyone other than him. He bribed her with bulgogi, reprimanded the childishness, sweet talked her ears off, even went as far as promising to bring her mother back, but all in vain. Tempting enough as they were, none were any match to the trust he had sown in her. And she won.

"Rye, am sorry, your mother- she um- she was attacked by the rogues. . .and could-couldn't survive"

Back then, she knew not how to feel. Hell, she didn't feel anything to know it all the more.

"I-i wa-want to h-ha-hate her, T-tae! " She wailed, "so-so bad! I-i hate h-her! "

"I know, " He replied, softly patting her back.

"B-but I ca-can't-"

"I know that too"

"Sh-she's my mo-mom, " She cried.

"Yes, your mom, " He nodded, not an ounce of care for the snot and tears that stained his Royal attire.

She sobbed, wailed, cried and repeated until her tear ducts begged mercy and puffy eyes dropped heavily. Leaning against Taehyung's shoulder, who sat beside her in silence still patting her back softly, she sleepily mumbled, "she left me alone, Tae"

"Hmm, " He hummed in affirmation.

"She let them beat me up, " She continued, eyelids turning heavier by the moment.

"She did, " He repeated, almost a whisper.

"But, how dumb, " She drawled, eyelids falling shut, "how dumb that I still love her"

"You're not dumb, " Were the last words she heard followed by a distant mumble that said, " Neither am I"

"Isn't someone too happy for a Monday morning? " Taehyung's voice snapped her out of her little reverie.

"Taehyung, you do know that I'm here for you no matter what, right?" She demanded with a certain urgency to her voice.

Spoon and fork frozen mid air in his hands, he met her eyes, staring them for a few tense moments before nodding, with a smile.

"Tae, something's up with the borders again, " She informed, wiping her mouth with the napkin.

"Go ahead, " Taehyung prodded, munching on his breakfast hurriedly. He couldn't afford to get late to the courtroom on the first day of the week.

" A rogue attack, "she replied. His head shot up, spoon holding the next bite freezing again.

" Only this time, it was the rogues who were attacked, " Ryejin pointed.

"What do you mean? " He questioned, the spoonful never reaching his mouth.

"Two decapitated, one dead from severe injuries to head and one more stabbed," She explained.

"Who else have been appraised of this already? " Taehyung asked, now proceeding to gobble up the last bites of his breakfast. So much for power.

"Just the four of us," She replied, " You, me, Min hyung and Jang wook"

" Good," He remarked before hastily wiping his mouth with the napkin and gulping down the partially chewn food. Perks of being the King, he sarcastically wondered.

"Why?" Ryejin paused on her feet, in turn making Taehyung to comply to it too. "Any clues to who might be this random rogue killer? "

"Yes, " Taehyung nodded before a playful smirk painted his lips, "your new rival-"

"WHAT THE?! -"

"Tone it down, Rye"

"That idiot is a fucking traitor, and you belie-"

"No traitor would know the exact way they killed someone or some rogues in this case-"

"And you believe him? What if he's lying-"

'I don't lie, Your highness'

"He doesn't, " He interrupted firmly, before quickly adding a stuttery "I mean he cannot" at the the pointed look his sister rewarded him with.

"Seriously, you're siding that idiot now-"

"No, Rye" Taehyung immediately denied, "He explained the entire ordeal without a second thought, and his sword had blood stains to prove it enough-"

"But why would a rogue kill his own kind-"

"Because he's not!" He exclaimed, exasperated.

"You don't make any sense Kim Tae-"

"Rye, on our way back here, " Taehyung explained, " He explained me that he's not a rogue and that his attire was robbed from 'some odd wolves with gray eyes' because one among them had torn his, on his way here"

"So he didn't knew they were rogues? " Ryejin repeated, wondering how her i-have-a-stick-up-my-ass brother trusted this specimen of an alpha so easily.

"He didn't, " Taehyung hummed, "but that doesn't explain his sudden arrival right before uvagai-"

"how could he have killed four fucking rogues on his own! Damn, he is a fucking monste-"

"Did you search the surroundings? " Taehyung interrupted.

"Nothing suspicious, " She replied, "but-"

"He said there were five rogues and one among them fled, " Taehyung explained, pinching the bridge of his nose.

" Are the senior ministers aware? " He asked following moments of tense silence.

" Of? " Ryejin prodded, confused.

"Jung hyuk's stay in my chambers-"

"Doesn't sound like that bitch at all," Ryejin said ignoring his reply, "if I were you, I would rather be suspicious that an alpha like him has such a crappy name"

"Rye-"

"Yeah~ senior ministry, Jung hyuk, your chambers, yadda yadda. . . " She drawled, the name dripping with mockery on her tongue, "they are and this court room is to vote for that"

" They won't let this pass easily, Rye" Taehyung sighed, " You do trust me on this right? "

" More than anyone, " Ryejin reassured, "So do Min hyung and Jang wook"

He nodded to that, before hastily fixing his heavy Royal attire (that he couldn't wait to change from) and striding down the corridors to the King's courtroom.

"I don't lie, your highness"

Jeon Jungkook had always believed for a fact that 'small lies never hurt'. But he never knew that what you believe thoughtlessly leaps out of the window the moment it's about you.

And that's exactly why he was prancing around the living room of Taehyung's expansive chambers. When it came to him, he was never the one to think too much before he acted. Unfortunately enough for Jungkook, it applied in every scenario of his 23 years of life except that in case of a little (he means strong) omega sleeping peacefully in the room beside.

Small lies never hurt, my ass.

All that he had opened his mouth for ever since he stepped in Kaatru was to spew small lies that he- unfortunately enough again- never knew would come biting at his ass or more like sleep, now.

Well,not exactly for there were a few truths somewhere between them, weren't they?

You couldn't blame him, for when it came to Jeon Jungkook, his mouth had a brain of it's own.

The moment those words left his treacherous lips, Taehyung wordlessly dragged him to the living room of his chambers and ordered "sleep" before scurrying away elegantly.

Oh! He forgot the important part- His highness locked him in the living quarters of his chamber and left elegantly right after ordering him to "sleep".

All thanks to his smart mouth~

Currently playing 'ask me anything' with himself, he was on his 30th question-

Why ever before you run your mouth don't you ever think of running it twice around your own brain?

Once again, when it came to Jungkook, you can't blame him but- but a certain long Raven haired Omega wrapped in skin of gold, with beauty marks in places he wished to kiss-

What the fuck?! Can't keep your alpha ass in control, huh? Is it that hard to just control those fucking stupid pheromones?!
You are already promised! Remember?

Then again, you can't blame Jeon Jungkook because when it came to him, even his brain had a mind of its own! Fascinatingly enough, as jobless as that mind was because of his (un)civil disobedience to it, now it had to fucking reprimand him for his Alpha pheromones! Fucking amazing~

Who was that again? The one who said being an alpha was easy- his ass! It's either he would have had some hormonal malfunction or mental dysfunction because either way that bastard was absolutely wrong! Being an alpha is so fucking hard because you have a brain that never works, courtesy of those stupid hormones that never let it or any other organ do it's one fucking job atleast to it's bare minimum.

Not to mention the hundred and one scale of stupidity and plenty of unasked pride. There was a neat, distinct almost meticulous line drawn between pride and stupidity. But when it came to Jeon Jungkook, the line mushed together causing frequent wars between both which neither won nor swore a treaty of peace to.

But again, you can't blame him, can you? For you aren't Jeon Jungkook living in his body reigned by stupid hormones and innumerable sacks of pride that are relentlessly at war with his brain (short form for stupidity) and mind (to whom he swore (un) civil disobedience to) that leave him torn between telling the truth to the Omega king and get the hell out of here or just keep warring with his pride and promote to hundred and second level of stupidity.

He obviously chose the latter. Because you can't blame him for being Jeon Jungkook, the Royal blood alpha soon to be the king of Gandhara Kingdom.

This slap to his pride, jab to his ego and boost to his stupidity- wasn't a combination everyone offered the crown prince. In fact, no one else than The valiant Kim Taehyung had managed to.
You can't blame him for that either, because when you are the son of the king of entire Gandhara, all those who spar with you are either I-can't-lose-my-job-for-hurting-the-crown-prince alphas or I-love-you-too-much-to-injure-you cousin brother. So a little much ego wasn't his fault.

Kaatru either had something in it's waters or Jeon Jungkook didn't have brain in his mind, because either way 'Jung Jung hyuk' was a stupid name.

Jung from Jung Hoseok and the iteration courtesy to his father's name-Junghyun- just with a little amendment to the n was all he could muster?! So much for alpha pride. But again, you can't blame Jeon Jungkook, because desperate times called for desperate solutions and those piercing brown orbs weren't of much help either.

Brooding here, locked in the dark living quarters of The valiant Kim Taehyung's chambers, Jungkook realised that it always takes two to tango, but when it comes to him he himself was more than enough.

Albeit, again, you can't blame Jeon Jungkook because when you're him, promoting to hundred and second level of stupidity would seem more reassuring than being the crown prince of entire Gandhara Kingdom.

He just wishes sleep, but fuck alpha pheromones! That he wants to kiss those beauty marks on certain someone's left eye, right cheek and tip of nos-

What the fuck! Not again!

He sighed heavily, staring at the ceiling, mumbling-

"It's so fucking hard to be an Alpha, Jeon Jungkook"

♛┈✧┈♛

It's so fucking hard to be an Omega.

Scratch that, it was so fucking hard to be an Omega king.

"His Majesty, Kim Taehyung arrives the courtroom," And the conch rung the air as musical instruments took cue to invite the Royal into the courtroom.

Entwined of the finest silks, threaded with golden borders, the tunic sat hugging his frame as Jewels and jewels hung heavy around his neck. His long raven hair was let loose, swaying with each step contrasting his heavy red cloak. Embellished with the Royal gems of Ruby, diamond and topaz, stood out a single rock of Amethyst in the centre drawing eyes to itself and it's owner, above whom the crown was heavily perched upon. Sweeping the floor with elegance, his red robe dragging down; dripping with royalty and power, he eyed the courtroom, treading up the stairs to where his throne sat aloft.

All it's inhabitants stood in unison bowing down, as Taehyung nodded his head approving to take their seats as he took his own after a quick survey through the crowd. He wouldn't dare to miss those familiar black orbs. Still unreadable but magnetic.

Power.

A temptress awaiting to seduce.

The demon of very heavens.

The devil of all the truths.

A twisted lie bloomed in darkness.

A sugary truth too sweet to any tooth.

In laymen terms,
power is death's visit at your door before your chance to knock at his.

But Taehyung never saw the temptress, never felt the demons, never witnessed the devil, never distinguished the lie, never discerned the sugar let alone heard the knock of death at his door.

He tasted power, but power tasted bitter. Barren of love, surrounded with rivals, eyed with greed and sown with hatred- power just reduced him to the mere title of king that hung heavier around his neck than any pounds of jewels and weighed more than the crown perched atop his head.

As much as the title sounded worse, the rank brought him down further. He was an omega. An omega king.

Again, in laymen terms, it directly translated to his paucity as a King.

At some point, you come to accept it.

Titles such as those were for Alphas. He wasn't one, but he had defeated many. But still some peculiar specimen of Kaatru citizens waved it off as another one of his pathetic attempts at defying nature. But when you're the son of an omega who rose above such remarks wiping her tears by herself, you learn the hard way that what you're can never be defined by their pathetic attempts at proving that you are defying nature.

Moon goddess made him an omega. He still wonders why. But she didn't say, that it makes him weaker than any alpha. And he doesn't wonder why.

"I presume that the ministers have been appraised of today's courtroom, " He began authoritatively raking his eyes through the crowd, "I request general in command, Ryejin to begin through"

The courtroom was brimmed with five of his ministers, trusted Royal guards, palace caretakers,Jung Jung hyuk himself, general mass with petitions and grievances to him and finally his mother's empty seat a few feet away from his own. Her health had worsened, he needed to check up on her soon.

Mother. Queen of Kaatru since the death of her dear husband and late king, Kim seok ho until him. Taehyung hardly remembered his childhood before fourteen, when he was announced as co-general in command by his mother. An honour indeed. He forgot how his mother was before his father's death, he was too small to grieve for it. Nor did he knew how to.

He still wonders if he would atleast been enough to his father. Besides, his memory was wiped clean about how his mother was before his father's tragic death. He had only heard, how she had hunted down the rogues who held cause to it, and gave a peculiar personal touch to each of their deaths. Rules of nature.

Kaatru under her flourished with joy, prosperity, peace and freedom. Freedom? Every mouth that spoke about the rules of nature, either changed it themselves or waved it off as trivial before her astonishing ruling sense. Some who couldn't, well, didn't have much say anymore. Kaatru, became more than just the land of wind under her.

And when the throne was replaced by him, his worst fears materialized. He knew he would never surpass his mother, nor he had any intentions to, but he wondered if he could make any such history if not alike then atleast close to hers. He never knew, because like said before, he accepted his paucity not just as a king but to every role that he took up.

At some point, you come to accept it. . . Right?

And Kim Taehyung had seen too less, to ask so much from his highness. So he chose to live and let live, despite the noose of insecurities around his neck, chains of duties around his ankles, ties of promises around his wrist and blinds of unknown over his eyes.

He planned his every step, never once looking back to regret. He proved his love for his motherland, no matter how bitter power tasted to his tongue. He ensured that every mouth that spoke bad of his rank would see the rise of it under him. Rules of nature.

He ensured that he kept everything under control, including himself. But unfortunately a certain someone's arrival had the said control slowly but surely slipping out of his fingers. He feared it. He gravely feared it.

It would have been much easier if the said someone's black orbs were not watching every blink of his eye and move of his finger. But something about the intense gaze had the control slipping tad more further, but sadly enough, Taehyung didn't fear it like he admitted.

What are you doing to me, alpha?

" Courtroom 197, suspected intrusion on the lands of Kaatru. Said intruder being an alpha claiming to have worn the black robe, emblematic of the rogues due to compulsive circumstances. Suspicious traits point at eccentrically fast running skills and relatively more physical strength for claimed origins, " Ryejin reads from her scroll in perfunctory monotone to the absolute silence of the courtroom. She gives a small nod, before bowing down and taking her seat.

Clearing his throat, Taehyung continued, " While in retrospect, all the hints point at the only suspicion left, it proves to be wrong. As evocative as it sounds, the truth denies. He isn't a rogue. The absence of the carved mark underneath his right ear, which is a peculiar indicative of rogues, support it as much as his eccentric running skills and physical strengths do, " Taehyung elaborated, composed.

"Rogues are as equally skilled as us, if not less, with the only exception to their misuse of black magic, " He continued, " But skills like speed of running and physical strengths are rather innate and too peculiar to be an outcome of black magic. They involve darker concepts rather left undiscovered by us, like swapping souls or worse, bodies, increasing elemental powers or even combining two of them"

" Fair enough, but what about those compulsive circumstances this rogue claimed of and his said mysterious origins?" Minister Han interrupted, unapologetic.

But before he could reply his close friend and general in command, Min hyung beat him to it, "I am sure senior minister Han, his highness just moments ago confirmed that he," He pointed at the owner of those unwavering black orbs, "Isn't a rogue. Guess old age does that to you, eh? " He gave a triumphant smirk at the minister's flushed face.

And before things could get out of hand, Taehyung took it up to him and continued, "Yes, Minister Han, compelling circumstances being a rogue attack on his journey to Kaatru unfortunately damaging his own robe, " He glanced at the alpha, "and as far as his origins are concerned, he claimed to be hailing from the neighbouring kingdom of Aranya, sent here for giving a hand at help for his distant relative's son's marriage.

" And why must your distant relative be at Kaatru?Aren't all elemental of air the ones that belong here? " Minister Lee inquired Jung hyuk, raising a suspicious brow.

Eyes leaving Taehyung's for probably the first time, Jung hyuk replied ruefully, "Sadly, I am not much informed of any such things being my parents' step son, respected sir, " He paused glancing back at Taehyung, " But I am sure of being informed of basic manners such as consulting the king before your own personal interrogation" He held his head down, appearing to be apologetic while visibly not, only fuming the humiliated minister further.

Clearing his throat, Taehyung once again involved himself, this time obviously fighting a smile, "You always have my complete permission, Minister Lee, "

"Now onto important matters, I believe we are yet to discuss more about his strange traits," he took one more glance at the alpha," I request, to respect the courtroom rules by all" He added, soberly staring at the two older ministers.

" May I get the pleasure to know how is it that you, your highness, " Minister Han raked his eyes from Taehyung's head to toe, the title dripping with mock on his tongue, " are so sure of his physical strengths and running skills? "

" You of all present in this courtroom, sure do deserve the pleasure to know that, Senior minister Han, " Taehyung replied with equal mockery, " For you haven't sparred with anyone since. . .since um. . . pretty long, if I am not at all wrong, eh? "

"Alphas don't lose their strength due to petty reasons like prolonged rest to physical activities, " The minister enunciated, lips pulled to a smirk, "Your highness"

" But unfortunately we aren't talking about that now, are we minister Han? " Taehyung pulled a forced frown, "but once we do, I will allow an entire court session just for your talks! Alphas do talk much, don't they now? "

" As much I would like to protest, your highness might object it as breaching the rules of this respected courtroom, " The minister replied, " Which I would never do, so I agree with you and await that day eagerly, my king "

"Yes," Taehyung breathed out, a vein popping on his neck in anger, " About the proof for his physical traits, I myself had witnessed it on one of my expeditions into the town for the upcoming uvagai preparations"

He locked eyes with Jung hyuk, who was now watching him with something akin to......pride in his eyes.

Pride?

" Upon misinterpreting his identity, some of my citizens gave rogue calls, which I noticed came in the direction towards the forest, " Taehyung elaborated, still looking at Jung hyuk, " Following his footsteps I then realised that he was faster as compared to any normal alpha"

"Following an accidental slip into the river waters, " Taehyung lied knowing his ministers, while not failing to notice the raised brow on Jung hyuk's face, "We challenged each other for a duel that I won after hours of pure muscle expense"

Now the raised brow had turned to an amused smile, almost mocking him.

There goes pride. . .

"You say he was fast and yet claim to have caught him? " It was minister Lee again.

" Why? Minister Lee, " Taehyung questioned back, " Do you not trust your king's powers? "

" Well, he is an alpha. . . " The minister trailed off, managing to have Taehyung bite back his tongue.

" You're right, " Taehyung said, once again interrupting a fuming Ryejin, Min hyung and. . . . Jung hyuk?

He was angry? And that's for. . . . him?

"He is an Alpha, minister Lee, " Taehyung drawled, "but if your alpha pride hurts that bad then let me gift you with a tempting offer, which am sure you will love~"

"Am eager, my king, " Lee smiled back, sinisterly.

"I am announcing a public duel between Jung Jung hyuk and my most trusted general, Min hyung, " He smiled, " If Jung hyuk wins he shall be freed of a future imprisonment, but if Min hyung wins -"

" Then this rogue shall be publicly executed, " Minister Lee's sinister smirk broadened as he finished.

Contemplating for a serious moment, Taehyung then solemnly nodded his head, too afraid to yet take a glance at Jung hyuk. But he knew, that the other's were still stuck on him.

" People of Kaatru shall be announced this evening of a public duel in the palace podium by tomorrow morning soon after sun rise, " Taehyung declared, loud and distinct not missing the way Min hyung eyed Jung hyuk, so full of conceit, "Uvagai this year begins with a public duel! "

Taehyung had fought both of them and knew Min hyung wouldn't stand a chance to hyuk. If not his lack of skills, then no doubt his conceit would make sure that he would be brought down.

Later, which wasn't much longer, he dared enough to meet the alpha's eyes. And as frustrating as it was, those pair of galaxies were too invitingfor his weak grasps on self-control.

Amusement?

Now, now, isn't someone getting so full of themselves? And amidst the chaos that the courtroom was following his grand declaration, him lulled in a trance of those amused orbs scrunched up at the ends, he would have dared not to missed the words those pink lips mouthed-

I. Swear. I. Won't. Die.

"You better don't, " he swore underneath his breath, barely fighting a smile as he shook his head to himself.

Dare to lose, I swear I won't shed a tear for you, arsehole!
