I had stopped crying and I sat next to my brother. He had aged since the last time I saw him, but he was still as handsome as ever. He had his arm around my shoulder and I noticed Felix staring.

Was he jealous?

"Oh I almost forgot!" I stood and gestured for Mochi to approach. He had transformed back into a puppy before he had entered the large hall.

"Arf arf!" He ran to me and I picked him up. Holding him close to me. His tail wagged happily as his blue eyes stared deeply into mine.

"Jimin, show yourself." I whispered into his ear. The light almost filled the room, contrasting against the late auburn Autumn sky.

"You can let me go now Princess." He stated softly.

"Oh right, sorry!" I murmured as I slowly removed my hands from his waist.

"Please. Keep your thoughts clean." He said it so only I heard it and I glared at him.

"Stay out of my head! You little psychopath!" Everyone chuckled, especially my Father.

"It seems Jimin and you are the same as ever." He said fondly. I blushed slightly and smiled.

"I guess so." Jimin bowed deeply to my father and brother.

"King Han Jisung, Prince Changbin. It's so good to see you once more." Father gestured for him to stand and I made him sit next to me. Felix folded his arms, and was still staring as Jimin and Changbin both placed their arms around my shoulders.

"It's good to see you too old friend." My father responded.

"Hey Jimin, thank you for looking out for her. Princess Kiara-"

"It's y/n. Please don't call me Princess Kiara. It's not a name I go by anymore." I corrected. Changbin looked at me and shrugged.

"OK, y/n. She's precious and we're forever in your debt for saving her." He finished speaking. Jimin hung his head.

"It was long overdue. I couldn't save her last time. I wasn't going to let him get to her again. She's my twin soul. If she dies, so do I. Her life is far more valuable than mine." He stated quietly. I stared sadly at him and wrapped my arms around his neck.

"Jimin-ssi. Don't say that. Your life is valuable. I couldn't live without you." I said softly.

"King Hyunjin, thank you for allowing my daughter to have refuge in your Kingdom when she sought it. As such we are now offering our services to defeat the great necromancer who plagues these lands once more." I had never heard anyone utter the Kings name before and it was weird. The name suited him well, but it was alien to hear him addressed as anything other than 'your majesty' or 'father'.

"Please King Han, accept my sincere apologies for the way we treated the Princess upon her arrival. We assumed it was a human who had come to re-ignite the fires of the great war. It won't happen again." Hyunjin bowed his head to Han and I looked between the two Kings.

"Talk about bullying me!" I mumbled. My comment seemed to break the tension amongst everyone and laughter filled the room.

"You're definitely as sharp as ever." Father said with a proud smile on his face.

"Excuse me Father. I have scout duties." Felix stood and bowed to everyone before walking out of the room. What was up with him? He hadn't been himself since they had arrived.

"Can I accompany him?" I asked brightly. I loved watching Felix on scout duties. The way he lept through the trees effortlessly. The speed with which he could draw his sword. The way his skin glowed in the moonlight. He was positively enchanting.
