PARCHED (Jikook FF)

58. Devious Plan

'You know the game. I know how to play.'

"He's still not back...", Taehyung mumbled distracted as he took his nth round around the tent anxiously.

"He will be back, calm down beta.", Heesung clung to his arm trying to soothe him by releasing his calming pheromones. But nothing was working for the beta who knew that his father was in danger.

Ever since he got the news of Lisa inviting King of Daegu, his father, Taehyung has been feeling very anxious. He knew that Lisa didn't have any good intentions behind this.

"How can I calm down, Sung? My father is there. He is still not back. Its been a day since he has arrived. On top of it, Jungkook hyung's been acting weird. He's not even talking with me. Not even Minho hyung's telling me anything.", He sulked. Heesung was on verge of getting nausea by just looking at the anxious beta.

"Calm down. Alpha said that leader Alpha is not feeling well and they are discussing few things regarding this meeting of your father with Queen, so they are busy. Even Beomgyu was telling me that Alpha Hwasa don't show up much. Everything will be fine.", Heesung tried to coax him. But apparently beta was fully distracted. He stood up and started walking away.

"Where are you going, beta??", Heesung ran behind Taehyung.

"I'm going to go there and bring my father back myself. I'm sure she has done something to my father, that witch.", He thrashed. Before he could go away, a deep voice rung the empty place.

"Taehyung!", Taehyung immediately stopped and looked back at Jungkook who was standing with his arms crossed over his chest.

"Go back in the tent.", He said calmly. But his eyes were not calm at all despite his cold manner.

"But hyung—"

"Go back I said. I will bring our father back..."

"Welcome Alpha Hyun!! I am glad to welcome you in our Kingdom.", Lisa welcomed the King of Hanyang into her court.

Everyone stood up to bow to the King of the the other Kingdom. The elderly King entered the hall with a proud face swaying his heavy body. His hungry eyes already searching for the desired Omega. It didn't go unnoticed by Lisa. She knew he was looking for Jimin.

But she was not going to hand him over just like that.

"Thank you for the invitation Alpha Lisa. I hope this this invitation would bring out more benefits for both of us.", Hyun said with smug expressions.

"For that we need to discuss few things.", Lisa said and looked at the court silently. Everyone leaving them both, Lisa's father and Jinyoung along with Hyun's spokesperson. Once everyone was gone and they were settled Hyun opened his mouth.

"So, I have heard about your Nosan issue. How do you want me to help you with that?"

"Alpha Hyun, I want some of your enforcement. Nosan has crossed the boundaries by building a barrage over the only river that provides water for our whole Kingdom. Our Kingdom has started suffering because of it. Before people start revolting, I have to put a stop on them. And I'm certain they won't be stopping at treaty. Nosan has been planning to attack on us. For that, we want your back up.", Lisa stated. Hyun seemed to be fallen into deep thoughts.

"Just for an Omega, don't you think this is too much risk to take?", He asked. Lisa let out a humourous chuckle.

"You aren't seeing the profit, Alpha Hyun. Our combined forces are bound to make Nosan submit easily. Then, Nosan will be yours as well as my Omega whom you have been desiring for so long. I just want Busan in my hands without any interruption.", Lisa whispered viciously  thinking about specific rogue leader in her mind. This made Hyun smirk. Lisa's father couldn't understand why Lisa was giving up on so much.
