"what? me?"
"yes, but it's quite complicated," jaemin sighed. he looked to the side, lost in thought.
you absentmindedly fidgeted with your fingers as you waited for him to continue. when he seemed to have finally figured out what to say, he leaned forward, resting his elbows on his thighs and folding his hands under his chin.
"for years, this kingdom has gone through an era of great prosperity and expansion," he spoke, his eyes having a far-off look.
"okay, but what does that have anything to do with me?" you asked, annoyed.
he scowled. "as i was saying before you interrupted me"—you rolled your eyes—"our citizens are all fed and happy, and the peace has stayed undisturbed. however, three months ago random attacks started popping up around the city. and they- they were brutal. we've been working tirelessly to stop them, but the culprits seem to elude capture every time." you watched as his hair got messier as he kept running his hands through it. it bothered you, and you yearned to reach out and fix it.
"last week, we received word that these attacks are the works of a rebel group that calls themselves nct 127," he spoke, bringing your attention back to his face. "we still have no idea who they are or why they do what they do. and that's where you come in." he leaned back in his seat, arms crossed in front of his chest. he was looking directly at you, and now you could see the slightest hint of humor glinting in his eyes.
"i'm not sure what you mean," you said flatly.
"we need more information on them."
you crossed your arms, mirroring his position. "so?"
"so... we'll have a use for you now."
your nostrils flared. "i am not going to be used," you hissed.
"of course not." he breathed out a laugh, then got up and turned toward the door.
taken aback, you barely caught the cuff of his jacket. "wait! that's it? that's all you're going to tell me?"
he turned around and gave you a sly smile before shaking off your grip and walking toward the door. you stared in exasperated confusion as he left, closing and locking the door behind him.
