JUNGKOOK POV

I fumed as I watched the guards force the two alphas and guard to their knees before me.

As much as I wish I could kill them like Jimin wanted, I
knew I couldn't.

That wasn't how things were done.

I couldn't believe these three well, four if we included Jih thought they could take over
the position of prince by
killing Jimin and me.

The only way it would happen was in a sanctioned challenge and this wasn't it.

"You do realize that even if you had killed me, you wouldn't
be prince, right?" I asked.

"If I had killed you—"

I shook my head.

"Unless it's a sanctioned challenge, it's not valid and
the King would never allow it."

"In a coup, he'd come in and
kill the person behind it and place someone of his own
choice and it wouldn't be you."

"He wouldn't have a choice!"

I cocked an eyebrow.

"You think not?"

Alpha Rami roared and shifted
as he knocked the guards
hands away and launched
himself at me.

I made my wings spring out, wrapping them around me and Jimin, protecting us inside.

I felt a heavy thud against my back and then a scream.

I waited, holding Jimin tight
to me.

"Sir." Tai said.

"You can come out now."

I slowly lowered my wings
and glanced around.

Alpha San was still kneeling on the floor but he was staring in horror at the mess on the floor.

I couldn't blame him.

There was blood and body
parts all over the stone floor
and right in the middle of it all were three bodies.

Alpha Rami, Jih and the guard.

"I'm not cleaning that up."

I slowly panned to look at
Jimin.

He frowned at me.

"What? I'm not."

I rolled my eyes before
looking back at Tai.

"I'm going to take my family upstairs and get them settled in."

"Please make arrangements for Alpha San to be transferred to King's jail, I'll send a report
to him in the morning."

I glanced around until I spotted my assistant.

"Hobi, I'm sorry it had to end
this way."

There were tears in his eyes
even as the man squared his shoulders and faced me.

"There is no other way it could have ended, he was a traitor."

"Please give your condolences
to your parents."

"Of course, sir."

"If you could see to having some one clean the entryway up, you can take the rest of the
evening off."

"We can meet in my study in
the morning to work on that letter to King Constantine."

"Sir?"

"We also need to look into getting the panic room repaired and set up interviews for
another house butler."
