Yoongi's POV:
Oh dear Oh dear!
It's been so long since you hid me
underneath this mask
Have you forgotten me?
I once was a happy child
Oh dear Oh dear!
What have you done to me?
I was looking at the moon from the window of my room when I heard a soft knock on my door. Tugging a trinket, I was holding inside my tunic, an average ring. I commanded him to come in.
"The lordship you asked for me" The knight commander stood in front of me and bowed.
"Send some royal guards and bring the most beautiful girl from the pleasure house" I ordered him as he looked at me dazed. His mouth opened to say something but snapped shut. I pinned him with my stare as he nodded his head and went out. I looked back at the moon shining on me. This melancholic night wasn't doing anything to consume my thoughts about HER. Instead, I was feeling more suffocated with this melancholic wind filling inside me. My knees suddenly felt weak. I clutched the nightstand beside me and steadied myself. I felt liquid drooling down from my eyes. I was befuddled by this sudden reaction. I haven't cried before. Not in years. Then why suddenly this night felt heavier? I haven't felt any emotions in years then why suddenly I'm feeling them now? I've been emptied for years and I have no emotions left inside except for two. Anger and greed for power. I shook my head and went to my bed, tossing and turning all night but dare the sleep didn't even try to consume me for once.

I entered the throne room behind the king sauntering by the guards. The king sat down and I took my respected position on the dais. Hoseok wasn't there.
"Where is prince Hoseok?" asked the King.
"He went on drills, your highness" uttered the guard at the corner of the room. King scoffed under his breath.
Knight commander entered the throne room and bent down. He wasn't alone but a girl was behind him adorned in a beautiful red gown and accoutred with jewelry and other stuff. She also bowed down gracefully on the king's mercy. From the corner of my eyes, I saw his lips unturned in a smirk.
" My lord she's the girl from Dong Inn." He gestured for her to move forward and entertain the king and the prince. She batted her eyelashes at me and introduced herself with a shy smile.
"I'm Sophia. I work for madam Ching in Dong Inn pleasure house"
"Vey well Sophia. I must say you're very beautiful" she offered her shy smile. He looked at me satisfied. Hoseok entered the throne and bowed in front of the king. He took his position at the other side of the dais.
"Yoongi! You did a great job so I must reward you...you deserve enjoyment too" King passed a knowing look at me.
No!
"Sure" I passed him a tight-lipped smile forcing my nails under my palm. Hoseok shook his head silently at his side already disappointed at me, at this whole setting.
"Hoseok! Learn something from your brother you need to be tough and smart to conquer the world.. it's in your blood."
"Spare my life your highness but I think I'm tough and fearless enough to fight in a war for the might of my people my kingdom and my king and smart enough at the point on making some good war strategies to the point of making smart decisions for the great development of our kingdom but I think it's not courageous enough to show your bravery in an unreasoned war" He spoke rather bluntly. His blunt reply made the King outrageous. He stood up with a jerk. A scowl clearly visible on his face.
"You're calling me a coward" He huffed out in feral rage.
"Please forgive my imbecile act my Lord it's not what I intended"
He quickly went to his knees asking for forgiveness... before King would do something I immediately bowed at him getting his attention.
"You're highness please don't get frustrated and tensed because of him you look a little tired please go and take some rest I'll take care of everything," I said with a convincing tone. I smiled at him assuring him. He nodded at my words. He looked aggressively at hoseok before stomping out of the room.
"Thank you brother" He showed me his heart smile. I scoffed internally... this Lil brat thinks I did it for him.
How naive.
He really is an imbecile man. I did this all to impress King more. There's always a reason behind my every act. I put on my very own popular fake smile.
"My pleasure you're my own brother after all" He nodded and engulfed me in a hug. That was unexpected. Something in me stirs. A weird sensation exfoliated in my body. I reluctantly raised my hand and patted his back. He pulled back and smiled at me before he eyed the girl in disbelief and left the room. I dismissed them also. Now I was alone in the throne room. The air here was tightening, gripping my throat. I gulped a lump down and went towards the throne. I brushed my hand on it feeling the silk and cold metal beneath my fingers. A wave of rage washed over me. What power can do I have seen it. Many times. In front of me. So now I want power. So I now longer need to feel like I can't do anything like my hands are tied and I'm useless. That feeling, I loathe it. Like feeling helpless all the time. I sat down on the throne. I felt like weighing down by the pressure of power. I need to indulge myself in this power. This time I won't accept defeat.
