"he's kind, your highness. he was friendly, he's also sweet... he's kind of, like you."

prince seokmin heave a sighed as he watched the stylists and other personnel of the mansion to do his hair and makeup, using their reflections on the mirror in front of him. and while he was watching the three lady whose busy preparing how he would look like for today's so-called event as per the king informed him the last last day, the voice of his sister, princess sungkyung kept echoing in his ears like a broken record.. 

and that voice, that words are the same as what he heard yesterday when he asked the princess if she knew something about what the king told him the last time. and as he have seen enough that that finest businessman and the royal family really has that close relationship with each other, he asked the princess if she knew... somehow, about the only son of that businessman, joshua hong. 

and what's been echoing in his ears are what his sister told him who joshua hong is. 

that the man was kind.. was friendly, was yes, aggressive as he is, but he's also sweet. and what made him remember most was, when his sister told him, he was just like him. that joshua hong has the same as personality as he is. because what his sister describe that joshua to him yesterday, he realized that they were somewhat the same except of being aggressive since it wasn't really natural to him as per he is an omega and the latter was an alpha. 

but he kept doubting... he kept doubting if the joshua hong his sister describe him the last time, would be the same once they finally met? finally met, at the dinner happening any minute now. 

"your highness, they're already here! the king ask you to go down already."

seokmin swallowed hard. "give us a minute."

and yes, tonight's the night of the dinner the king was referring the last time. the dinner where he would gonna meet with the alpha, the king, his father had chosen for him to marry. for this nation's future. 

it took really a minute before the stylist finally finished what they are doing with the prince's hair and face, but before he even stood up to finally walk, go down to where they are and met that finest businessman's family including that joshua hong, he stared at his reflection for the last time.. seeing nothing but himself. face was in a full makeup, but not that exaggerated just enough for him to make him look like almost a girl, for he is originally that beautiful. 

he was wearing a cream satin turtle neck shirt whose sleeves reached down on his both hands, a long sleeve then. has a design at the very edge of the sleeves. paired with a black slack which kinda looked like pants and a close shoes. raven hairs done covering his forehead with a minimal headpiece just for them to see that he is the prince, and he belongs to the royal family. and some royal accessories he needs to wear.

the eunuch has gestured him to walk first but the helpers the one who opened the door for him, as he went out, heads holding low, followed by the eunuch behind him finally going downstairs to where he could hear his father and his sister talking to a non-familiar voice of a group of people, most specifically, a family.. that finest businessman's family. the more that he wanted to take a peak of those persons his family was talking to, but he couldn't unless the king finally present him to them. 

"your highness."

even though seokmin was holding his head low, he saw how the people around him bowed when he finally arrived at the dinning area of their mansion. as he felt the three other person's presence he can't wait to see who, and how they looked like. he noticed his sister stood beside him on the right, while the king was on his left but in the middle of the dinning table. and he also knew that there's someone across to where he was standing, a guy, whose also holding his head low. 

prolly, the joshua hong. he thought since he noticed that the guy across him seemed younger. 

his majesty cleared his throat. "i proudly present to you my dearest friend, my son, the prince of korea, your highness.. lee seokmin."

seokmin saw using his peripheral vision that the guy in front of him slowly raising his head, finally shifting his gaze to see him.. to see the prince. the second alpha the king permits to see the royal prince. it was slow.. until he felt that that guy was already staring at him, which made him swallowed hard because he could feel by the way that guy was staring at him, his dominance and his presence, as an alpha himself. 

"we are honored to finally meet you, your highness." the guy on the left responded as seokmin noticed he bowed once again to give respects. "and this is my son, my only son, joshua hong."

and thats the moment the prince knew he has to finally lift his head to see the guy in front of him, which prolly his father introduce, as joshua hong.

he slowly.. slowly lifted up his head as his gaze also slowly seeing the people that surrounds him in their dinning area. up until he blinked as his gaze finally met with the guy's eyes on the way making him a bit surprise that he waited until they made an eye contact, for the first time. 

seokmin was seeing nothing... seeing nothing but a brunet guy whose hairs slicked back exposing his forehead. was wearing a white polo but sleeves rolled up on his elbow level, paired with also a black slacks and prolly was wearing a close shoes too. he found the guy's stare was too intimidating to even battled with, but the prince admits that the guy has an innocent facade. those semi-wide eyes, pointed nose and those lips even the shape of his face that made him think that maybe his sister was right... 

that this joshua hong, is really has the same personality as him but aggressive as he was an alpha. 

he saw how joshua's lips formed a small smile. "pleasure to meet you, your highness."

seokmin swallowed hard as he let out a small smile. "nice to meet you too, mister."
