The Infernal : The Rise Of A King (K.TH)

Ch 13: Leo The Chieftain

Y/N

''I want to come with''

''No.'' I felt unease build within me every time I look at Sheria. Ever since she came I have been getting those dreams, and....confusing feelings. She makes me worry too much. I thought about what Taehyung asked a lot. Almost every day...the fact that I couldn't answer was because in a heartbeat I would have chosen Sheria, but it left me with regret. Cause I do care for Taehyung. 

I started to think...what if I'm bonded to both of them? Or perhaps...Sheria has triggered these human emotions within me which draws her closer to my heart. Closer than...Taehyung. My emotions towards him are mainly entangled with the caring nature of an Infernal. 

I was aware of that yesterday. He turned red like a ripe tomato whenever our eyes met, his heart was beating really loudly. His moves were careful, his fingers...trembling. He was gentle and kind and I could tell that....he really didn't lie when he said he had feelings of love toward me. 

Yet I didn't feel the same. Taehyung is kind and I care for him. I want to protect him with my life due to my nature, but last night. I didn't waver, I didn't blush as he did, I could tell that...I wasn't feeling the emotional aspect of it as much as he did.

I was just simply....curious and daring. 

''You have to stay here. It's going to be hard for me to protect you.''

''You don't need to protect me. How do you think I survived till now? Y/N I'm...not the same girl from our days in Ozryn.'' She is right yet I still, couldn't bring myself to agree.

''I just...don't want to experience that day ever again. We reunited at last, let me be at ease and return to you.'' So she gave in and lowered her head. 

''You'll be safe here on the ship. These men will look after you.'' And so I brushed my hand against her arm. She smiled with a nod allowing me to bow to her before taking my leave. 

''Y/N are you ready?'' A hand landed on my shoulder belonging to Yoongi. I nodded looking back at the sword around my waist. Whenever I glimpse at it, it brings back memories from when I met Taehyung. The day we first met Yoongi and went to his weapon shop. The dragon sword he granted me has been with me ever since. Strangely enough I was itching to wield it once more. 

''Can we depart?'' It was said that a few men would scout around first before we would be able to depart. We had to move swiftly and cleanly, not letting our presence be known. Dawran and his team set out a few hours ago, nestling in with fisherman and the people at the harbor. So far as words had it, everything was going as planned.

''Yes, let's ready the horses.'' I followed his tracks leading us to the side of the deck. There was a dinghie ready for us and some crew members that would set a shore with us. 

''Y/N.'' Once more my name was called, this time it was Taehyung accompanied with the others.

''Be safe you guys.'' Minjae spoke both Yoongi and I bowed to her kind words.

''Yes....please be safe.'' Taehyung spoke wavering in his feelings as we locked eyes. He shouldn't waver, now onwards there is no room for weakness. If you do, setbacks will hit harder. I wish I could tell him that. 

''You guys too.'' Yoongi spoke in both of us steads making them smile. 

''It feels strange to part ways from one another. Yoongi and Y/N will be taking charge of the village. Teya and I the other side while The commanders and my lord infiltrate the headquarters.'' Jimin began, there was an unknown emotion hiding behind his face. 

''I have never once been apart from my lord.'' That's right Jimin is the hand of the prince, but Taehyung announced that he is stripping Jimin away from that title. On this journey we were comrades on equal grounds. Though everyone can agree that Minjae and Jungkook will always be seen and addressed as the commanders.
