"Serve me the porridge before it gets cold" he spoke lifting his sleeve

"It should have become cold enough already your highness" I replied turning away to throw the food

But he held my hand and stopped me suddenly "Feed me" he said as my heartbeat raced crazily just by hearing two words come out of his mouth.

Feed me.

He..he wants me to feed him..?

He pulled me towards him and made me sit beside. I shyly opened the container and took the spoon as i mixed the porridge well

Just when I was about to test the food, he held my hand again and stopped "What are you doing?"

"I..I'm testing the food your highness..isn't it how you usually eat..?" I spoke stuttering due to the impact of his touch

"Didn't you cook this?" He asked kind of pouting

"Yes your highness.."

"Then aaa" he said as he opened his mouth

"But—"

"—I would even drink poison if it is you feeding me" he spoke taking my hand near his mouth and feeding himself

"..your highness must love Lady Hui so much" i spoke as my eyes were welled up

"Right. I love you so much" he said staring straight into my soul through my eyes making my heart skip every beat

I was on the verge of tearing up as I couldn't stand deceiving him. How much his heart will break when he finds out I'm not lady Hui?

"Your highness eat up I'll wait outside" I said wriggling off from his grip leaving the hall as a tear slipped away

I hope he didn't see my eyes.

"Shall we start our training Lady Hui?" Prince Taehyung spoke as he came out from the old warehouse stretching himself

He took out his long sharp sword twisting it in the air so elegantly. The golden afternoon sun kissed him perfectly. From right to left, he is the definition of perfection. And I could never do this even in my imagination

"Hold here" he commanded

You asked the trouble yourself y/n. Now enjoy.

I went near him grabbing the sword in my hands mentally cursing in 382782 languages

He held my right hand on top gripping both the sword and me. His other hand pulled me by my waist as my shoulders hit his chest. He slowly traced my left hand and encircled it around my waist making me fit in his frame

He placed his head on the right side of of my shoulders and gently whispered "Ready?"

I slightly nodded as I couldn't seem to utter a single word. He smiled and started taking power on my right hand which is holding the sword. He twisted it slowly and gently yet sharply from left to right making a 'X' in the air

Then he fasted the same movement until I myself could move it perfectly. After a few minutes of practice he let me go and made me twist the sword myself

"Good job" he said smiling as he patted my head

"Did I get it right?" I asked curiously. He chuckled and nodded with a big smile "So what am I gonna learn next?"

"Umm" he thought for about few seconds "that's it for today"

"That's it?"

"Yes. That's it.. if you don't want to spend the night here" he said smirking

"I-"

"It will be dark soon let me send you home Lady Hui" he said chuckling
