Min, the Mad King

Chapter 6

"Hee Hee," Taehyung yelled as he raced toward his little sister across the courtyard. 

She might be the Queen, but she was still their little sister and loved them unconditionally. They crashed into each other, both crying and laughing simultaneously as they squeezed each other and peppered each other's cheeks with kisses. "I missed you so so much, Tae Tae."

"Not us," their oldest brother Seokin scoffed.

Namjoon snorted and then pulled Hee away from Taehyung so he could hug and kiss her as well. "Of course, she missed us, Jinnie; Tae just ran faster than we did."

Once she had hugged all three of them, she saw Jungkook, so Hee ran and hugged him, too. He was shocked, his body wavering a bit from the unexpected weight against him. "I missed you, Jungkook. My hair has looked terrible since you've been gone."

"Well, I'm back, and I'll be able to take care of you again. And I missed you as well." His laugh was so cute. Her eyes met Jimin's; she hadn't seen him much since the day they brought her there. But now that Yoongi has told her about him and Jungkook, she can see it. His eyes watch the two of them like he wanted to rip Jungkook away from her but couldn't because she's the Queen. Hee will have to talk to him later and assure him she's not a threat, even if she wasn't married and Jungkook was straight and single. She didn't see him that way.

"Let him breathe, Hee Hee," Taehyung chuckled. He pulled his sister away from Jungkook, "Where is your husband? We expected to meet him since he told his guards we needed to come here. Is everything okay? Is he good to you?"

"He's amazing," Hee sighed, all dreamy-like. "I couldn't be happier if I tried."

"But, isn't he mad?" Her brother whispered, concern all over his face.

Hee shook her head quickly, "He's not, I promise. It's all an act; you have to play along. It's for all of our safety. I love him so much; I'd do anything for him."

"Is that right?" He chuckled from the side where he was walking towards the group unseen.

She spun around with a grin on her face. "Maybe," Hee reached out for him. "Meet my brothers." She pointed towards them one by one. "This is Seokjin; he's the oldest."

"Ahh, the one that can charm anyone; I see why."

"Yup!" Hee exclaimed cheerfully, "and this is Namjoon, the middle brother."

Yoongi nodded, "The muscles are huge, and he looks strong."

"He is, I promise." Then it was Tae Tae's turn, "this is Taehyung, the youngest brother."

The King leaned towards his Queen, "Are you sure he can sneak into places? He seems very.."

"Loud, boisterous?" When Yoongi nodded in agreement, they all smiled. "That's the point. No one suspects the life of the party of sneaking around. Once everyone is too drunk to notice, he gets to work."

He looked at the three of them; his cat-like eyes were sharp as usual. Assessing everything about them, he didn't have anyone he could trust. He grew up with Hobi and Jimin, so it's just them. Pretending to be mad around them was hard. Jungkook only came because Jimin was dating him, so Yoongi had to trust Jimin. But Hee knew her brothers, they'd kept her safe her entire life. They won't sit by idly if people are getting hurt, especially women. 

"There's something we need to discuss, but it can't be done here out in the open." Hee pleaded with her eyes toward her brothers, begging them to listen and follow the King, to trust in her and, in turn, him. 

They agreed, thankfully. The group followed the King to their marital chambers, and Jungkook and Jimin left as soon as they reached the bedroom. They were leaving Hobi to stand guard right outside the door. They knew they could trust Hobi, so Yoongi could finally speak freely. "I'm not sure who, but someone, or several someones, are betraying me. If you can help me, I will reward you. Anything you want because not only would you be saving thousands of lives, but you'd be saving our country."
