Chapter-28

The metal bars trambled with a loud bang as taehyung's body was pushed inside. He falls to the floor on his jaw which was pretty painful to endure. But he was more scared and worried about what they will do to his fiance. This situation stands familiar to him. How many times Jungkook had to go through severe beatings because of him?

Taehyung covered his crying face with his shaking palm. He didn't want jungkook to get involved in the hunger for achieving power yet fate always seem to throw him right in front.

"your Fiance is alive. Jimin had run away with him"

A sudden voice made taehyung snap his head up and the person in front of him wasn't an unfamiliar one "I was waiting when you will come and take me away" Taehyung replied while weeping his tears and the man in front of him looked like he was taken back "You are really good at acting, aren't you? Your highness" he asked earning a small chuckle from taehyung

"I was skeptical about If Hyung actually was going to go with the real plan. But I'm amazed that he stood in his loyalty"

"Without you, we couldn't have done it his highness, Now that Kim Namjoon's most trusted alley is gone, we can proceed to attack. And just as you said, our men are having an eye on Jimin and Jungkook. They will be protected just as his highness seokjin has pledged to you"

Taehyung laughed loudly while weeping blood from his flowing nose. A smirk perfectly coated his lips making him look like a factual devil.

Yes, everything was in his control. He was never really interested in having a simple life. He couldn't just throw away his pride as a royal blood. So he made a plan, a flawless statistical scheme that will give him his throne without losing Jungkook's trust and love.

All along since the day, he came to that village he realized that no matter what he was in love with Jungkook and he couldn't just leave. Even after jungkook had betrayed him in that brutal way, taehyung calmed himself thinking that his fiance had a good reason of doing so. Now, at that moment taehyung just had to stay quiet and do everything to have Jungkook's love and trust. It was hard to earn devotion from his love yet he didn't give up. His plan was that, first he would strengthen His relationship with his former concubine, then slowly let Jungkook believe that without having any power, living was impossible. That way jungkook wouldn't have any problem with taehyung being a king in the future. And the way Kim Namjoon had behaved, taehyung was sure that by now Jungkook was burning in anger and retaining the thought of having his own big army to destroy the filthy king.

After everything has done he needed to wait for Kim seokjin or anyone left alive in his kingdom to try to contact him. After 3 months of having little no hopes, taehyung finally met Kim seokjin in the market. He was very happy to see his hung but he showed fear from outside so that seokjin wouldn't notice anything. He sure hated his hyung but to go through with his own plan, he needed Kim seokjin's soldiers.

They discussed everything. It wasn't a simple short conversation. Kim seokjin already had his full plan ready to be executed with the help of taehyung and to his surprise, his little brother agreed immediately. Seokjin thought that taehyung still was an empty-headed prince completely unaware of dirty politics but he didn't know that he himself was stepping into a trap set up by Kim taehyung.

The plan was simple. Taehyung had to construct governor Park Jimin as a traitor in front of Namjoon. They needed park Jimin to stand against the king because half of Abuza's army was under influence of the governor himself. And it was a success today.

That day Taehyung had purposely told seokjin to tell the villagers about his true identity. Seokjin was confused but did as he was told. Taehyung just wanted a reason for jungkook to feel devotion deeper than before so that he could feel the fear of losing his fiance. Also, it could work as a reason for taehyung to go to the palace to finally execute the mission.

"Namjoon was right, today's era is an era of intelligence, not masculine strength" Taehyung chuckled as he sat comfortably on the prison floor, hissing from time to time as his wounds itched. He will let seokjin do all the heavy work and in the end, taehyung would kill him and become the king of both Hena and Abuza with ease. He knew that Jimin could be an obstacle in the future but taehyung can handle it on his own. Now he just hoped that everything would go as it should.

"When seokjin will be attacking?" Taehyung asked while looking up at the male

"His highness it will take 1 week. We will be taking our small states first. Kim Namjoon will see the dark as he will have to face all the attacks without any preparation"

"I have already made them believe that Seokjin just wants Hena back. So Namjoon will eventually send half of the guards from Abuza to Hena's border to oversee. It won't be very difficult for you to win Abuza and all of the nearest states first" Taehyung groaned while pulling out the bandage from his arm. "Tsk I really need a shower"

"Your highness, Kim seokjin, and I are both worried for your safety. What if Namjoon does something to you? Do you want us to take you away? We can put another man's brunt dead body in your jail and set this building on fire. Namjoon won't be suspicious of your fake death"

"Don't do that. It can create a mess and alert everyone and they will began to think that a spy is residing inside the castle. They believe that I hate my brother and don't know about his real plan. I don't want anything to go wrong at the peak of our thriving task" more like taehyung didn't want Jungkook to go all crazy after hearing the news. He knew that Jungkook tend to act impulsively. He just wanted him to stay away from this Capital as soon and long as possible

"keep a close eye on Jungkook. Make sure you protect him and bring him away from the town. Jimin shouldn't get suspicious"

"yes your highness"
