At an inn,
Seo-a is lying in a bed, she slowly started to open her eyes. Her body felt so weak that she didn't even wanted to make a move, it felt like her whole spirit was drained by a demon but still with a little effort she turned her head to her side , she saw Taehyung sitting on a chair and reading a book wearing inner robe with wet hair hair and water dripping all over through his face and neck . Seo-a gulped unconsciously.
Taehyung slowly lifted his eyes from his book and looked Seo a who was still lying, he put down his book and came near Seo-a and held her hands tightly. And with great concern he asked," Seo-a,you are awake,how are you ,are you okay?".
Seo-a got snapped back and asked Tae in weak voice,"what happened to me,where are we now".
Tae patted her head gently ," don't worry ,you had just over used your spiritual power ,so you became unconscious and the snowfall was very heavy so we happened to stay in an inn".
Seo a sat up with Tae's support,"did we get delayed because of me ".
"Absolutely no,it was just because of snow", Tae replied .
And there was that usually awkward silence, Tae broke the ice,"aren't you hungry, should we eat?". Seo-a replied with an enthusiastic nod.
Seo-a was thrilled to see so many dishes and she took a bite of the meat but like a thunder hitted her she freeze and her chopsticks fell. Taehyung who was admiring her also caught guards and asked with concern,"what happened, isn't it meat not to your liking?".
Seo a' s eyes filled with anxiety and she stammered," actually shouldn't I have eaten after you touched everything ". Tae's lips frowned with confuse," why? What?". Seo-a whispered in Tae's ear," isn't it rule of Maxilina ". Tae took a piece of meat from her plate and said ," does such rule exist in Maxilina, nevermind I will abolish it when we return." Seo-a 's mouth opened with bewilderment and Tae put a sweet in her mouth, that sweet was so sweet that her expression shifted and she enjoyed with her eyes closed and a smile bloomed in the cold face of Taehyung admiring her.
After eating the food wholeheartedly and streching herself she stood up and walked to sleep but when she turned she found there was only one bed, she looked at taehyung and taehyung said with a smile,"come let's sleep ,it's late". Seo-a asked in disbelief," are we going to sleep together". Tae said to her while fixing bed," are you uncomfortable with it".
Seo-a anxiously said," no I am very comfortable ". Tae looked at her with shock but his shock turned to a little smile. Seo-a bit her tongue for the misplaced words and jumped into the bedย in embarassment. Tae felt that long lost feeling of playfulness and comfort which forced him to give the most beautiful smile.
Seo-a and Taehyung layed in bed keeping a clear barrier between them but none of them were asleep. Both of their tongues were itching but they held the words with themselves. Both of them looked at ceiling and wondered who will break this war of silence. Finally Taehyung spoke up," Don't you have anything to ask me".
Seo-a glanced at Tae for a second and looked at the ceiling," what should I ask?".
Tae looked at Seo-a with a complaining expression which was uncommon for a cold Prince," Don't you want to know my past, how was I like before, what was I ?
Seo-a also turned to Tae and looked at his eyes," I don't want to know ,it seems you don't wish to tell anyone about your past"
Taehyung stood up sat in the bed turning away from Seo-a and said glancing at her from side," But you are not anyone, ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ธ๐ช๐ง๐ฆ, ๐๐ช๐จ๐ฉ๐ต? "
Seo-a's eyes widened because of shock but slowly her eyes became soft. Seo-a's hands embraced Taehyung from back and her head rested on his shoulder, that hands were so warm , a warmth that was long forgotten. Seo-a told him with that gentle sound," If it is something that hurts you ,I won't force but if you need to tell it to someone I can hear you, ๐๐ข๐ฆ, ๐๐บ ๐ต๐ช๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐จ๐ด ๐ต๐ฐ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ, ๐ ๐ค๐ข๐ฏ ๐ธ๐ข๐ช๐ต ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ข๐ฏ ๐ฆ๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฏ๐ช๐ต๐บ".
Tae squeezed her hands and rested his head over her and said with a voice, it was filled with guilt and resentment, resentment towards himself," If I said I lied about something I shouldn't have,will you hate me?".
Seo-a looked at him and held him even more tighter," Everyone do lie, Tae".
Tae's eyes filled with tears ," But everything ended up like this because of that three words".
Seo-a looked at taehyung and held his hand," Let's sought it out together ".
A drop of tear fell eyes and a crimson of blood flow through a room.
A middle aged man wearing a soldier uniform asked to a person standing in dark," Master ,what should we do with others".
That person slowly came from dark ,it was none other than Eun-a,she had a cold and terrifying expression which could make chills overall one's body ,her left side had golden marking all over from neck to right hand and her eyes were like shining golden Sun. She gave her command," Those who doesn't speak are useless and useless people should b e removed. Kill. him."
