A faint blue light crept higher up the screen of the opened windows, sliding between its beautifully carved slats, bringing the designs from haunting silhouette to life, Jimin breathed deeply and settled back into the pillows, allowing his body to bask in this newfound ease. As the Alpha King was out of his sight once they were down on earth from the stars above, and Jimin wonders how he still has the strength to leave the bed as soon as they had finished their highs when it probably will take hours for him to gain the energy back he burned in the intense session of copulation, His chest was falling in on itself, he blinks his sapphire eyes dodging off the dizziness of sleep he was being attacked by which was taking him under it's somber wings, not wanting to cross another line of being a miscreant by sleeping next to the Stygian King
Silver stars ringed the edges of his vision feeling his lower region burn from the wiggle of his body as he attempted to sit up but fails horribly by the zero strength existing in his body to move even an inch of his muscle and the pain in his lower body was additional enchantment, and in between fighting the battle against his body he saw the Alpha King making his way towards him with a bowl of water and a towel in his hand, he was dressed up in a fresh ash tinted silk gown with a tied up ribbon around his torso blocking the heavenly view, his ebony locks falling in front of his emerald eyes, the sharp glass edges of his profile glow under the golden light of the candles, he looks as attractive as a god could making Jimin tear his gaze from the suave man to the side drawer which was grotesque enough in compared to his previous view to stops his raising heartbeats
The wet fabric meeting his skin flinched him out of his little lovely encounter with the side drawer as he traveled his gaze down towards his legs where the raven head was sitting staring back at him with apology swimming in the pools of his eyes filled with empathy and something unknown yet very familiar pinched Jimin's heart, while Taehyung's hands hesitantly move wiping the fresh slick off of the other's lavish skin, his movements were more gentle this time, the air between them swirled with the intensity of the unsaid as Jimin decided to vanish it by breaking through it
"Why do you do this? It doesn't suit your sophisticated Alpha King image" he quested the other's behaviors that pricked his insides
"My father had taught me, A true Alpha must look after their Omega once they've mated. I was too young and naive to truly grasp what he meant, now that I am grown I do"
His voice was even and characteristically low, a trace of a smile graced the King's lips as he was reliving the best moments of his life he got to spend with his father in those little teaching sessions of ethics. A strange twinge of guilt knifed through Jimin's stomach at the mention of Taehyung's father as it reminds him of all the hardships the other went through and makes him lower his guards, "Your father sounds like a great person" Taehyung nodded in agreement still busy cleaning the mess he created out of the beautiful Omega, "He indeed was, there was always something to learn by him and his way of living" Jimin noticed the shine in the King's eyes while he talks about his late father like there was something burning bright behind them
"You seem to have learned a lot from him"
In the dazed of sympathy Jimin forgets to coat his words with loathing poison and speaks with honesty, "Perhaps—at least I wish to have learned longer" The pain was reflecting in Taehyung's voice, the ache he still feels thinking about the lost happiness of his that won't ever come back, the lost wish that never makes to the skies and wonder back at him filled with despair "You have, Taehyung" did that mean Jimin considered Taehyung a great person too? when Jimin didn't measure his words and speaks with his heart the purity of it flows out in his words, despite the other being his enemy he won't hesitate to speak the truth out but it only happens once he shut his evil mind off
"I'm grateful, then"
Taehyung tried to fight the smile that blossomed across his handsome features but failed nevertheless, and so did Jimin. mirroring what graced Taehyung's lips, and when that beauty of a smile embellished the King's face he didn't look like a nightmare nor a cursed King, to Jimin he looks like a daydream, a heavenly creature, "I wish to become more like him, I wish to be as great as he was" Taehyung remembers the well- intentions he had when he sat on the Stygian throne but very soon he realized you can't be a good person and a good King at the same time, in between the war of being himself and his Kingdom he chooses the one who now gave him the title of the Cursed King
