"Who are you?!" the tall boy demanded aiming his dagger to Jeno's throat

"Who are you?!" the tall boy demanded aiming his dagger to Jeno's throat. Gulping down hard he raised his hands in the air. Speechless, his voice box froze, not functioning.

Like his saviour for the second time, Ga-eun dropped the heavy bags on the floor, running in front of Jeno to pull him away from the weapon that screamed danger. "Noona move. He's an intruder!" the boy growled out stepping forward but the girl placed her hands on his shoulder pushing him away . Jisung stumbled back bewildered and flickered his sight down at the girl in utter confusion.

"He's my patient." she breathed out making the younger boy relax his features at an instant. Same can't be said for Jeno who was particularly not pleased. His lips slightly parted and he sighed softly before pinching the bridge of his nose. Yet again she called him her patient. He thought that they both had moved on from that and realised that he was completely sane. 

Threatening to slice people's throats must be a thing between these siblings

He internally cried remembering how this is not the first time being nearly beheaded.

How much longer do I have to deal with this shit. I just want to go back home.

Jisung sat on the sofa staring at the new face which sent an awkward tension in the air as Jeno did not feel comfortable at all.

"Here" Ga-eun placed the three cups of coffee on the table. Her younger brother thanked the older girl before holding the small cup delicately in his large palms. Unfortunately, before he could even take a sip an aggressive nudge to his arm made him flinch. Flickering his eyes at the perpetrator he felt annoyance build up within him.

Ga-eun was instructing him to speak to Jeno. But Jisung was reluctant to start the conversation with a stranger he did not know. Rolling her eyes she leaned closer whispering something into the younger boy's ears.

Like a switch inside him flipped over, Jeno's face was blank, devoid of emotion eager to know what they were whispering. Especially after her younger brother smiled all of a sudden. He had an empty expression the whole time until now. Until this exact moment.  

Fixing his eyes back to Jeno. Jisung placed his cup down and put out his hand. "Park Jisung. Im Ga-eun's younger brother" he gave a welcoming look.

Park? Shouldn't it be Im

Though Jeno was finding it rather bizarre, he didn't want to question throwing way his curiosity. He had just met the boy. It may be personal and can be seen as rude. Grabbing hold of Jisung's hand he shook it firmly.

"Lee Jeno"

"So you're working for the Kingdom? A trainee knight? At 18 yrs old!" Jeno screamed in astonishment.

Rubbing his ear, Jisung glared at the older boy before monotoning a simple "Yes". Sighing he faced the floor, unable to process anything. "I'm a Phoenix rider" Jisung plainly spoke out while showing the embroidered insignia on his leather jacket.
