EDITED

You woke up , confused of your surroundings. Slowly rising to find a group of people watching you.  You looked around a little shocked.

"Why is everyone looking at me?"

"Here drink something first." The Queen said passing you a cup, you warily took it and took a sip. The water feeling so refreshing.

"My lady, you fainted earlier. You worried us so much. Grand Prince Seongnam helped bring you here and make sure you were healthy." You listened to your lady in waiting and turned to the boy on your other side. He showed a small smile towards you. It was so caring. His face looked like he had been so worried but noticing you were awake his features had eased.

"I best get going." You said trying to get up, however everyone tried to insist you rested.

"Lady Y/n, stay here the night and regain your energy. Get some food and take some rest." The Queen said from infront of you, her sons and lady's in waiting all nodding in agreement. Ms Kim joining them. And honestly you'd love to, the bed was comfortable and you were being treated like a proper human being again. But you couldn't and you really really hated it.

"I really must go." You said trying to get up.

"Just stay. You should really eat something." Seongnam spoke up. Your head slightly went down thinking about everything. You couldn't stay here, if Uiseong found out... . Forget if he did, he probably already has. And staying here longer would just make him angrier. You got up , heading outside. Seongnam got up to follow. The other princes wanting to do so too but their mother stopping them.

"This seems to be between the two of them." She said stopping everyone from within the room from leaving. Even Ms Kim stayed.

Outside you were trying to leave. Walking along the corridor that connected the multiple buildings. Seongnam caught up to you and grabbed your wrist.

"Get off me-" you said pulling away, you didn't even look at him. You weren't worried for your tone because you already knew it was him. Ofcourse it would be him.

"Your wrist..." he was about to say something but stopped himself. He could already feel the difference but he didn't want to make you upset with him. He wasn't here to be the villain. All he wanted to do was help. "Why are you ignoring me?" He said getting to his point.

"I'm not ignoring you. I'm simply leaving." You said pulling away from him. Trying to leave but he followed you.

"Look at me then." He said as if challenging you, even though it wasn't a difficult thing to do.

"I don't want to look at you. I want to go." You continued on your way.

"Why not?" You stopped at his words.

"Because." You didn't have a reason, well nothing you wanted to admit. And even if you had something to admit, your brain wasn't let you even think about that right now. All you could think about was Uiseong, fear controlling your head of what he would dare to do next.

"Because?"

"Because if I stay here any longer , I will lose everything." You let out at him. Trying to walk further but he grabbed your wrist again.

"Will looking at me cause you to stay?"

"No."

"Then look at me."

You turned around to face the boy.

"See, nothing was lost from doing that." He said calmly, looking into your eyes. He had a softness about him this evening. He moved closer to you. The two of you close, a warmth emitting from him that you hadn't felt in such a long time. It was welcoming. Something you were craving, a sense of being wanted. He lifted his hand to softly tuck your hair behind your ear. You looked into his eyes. It wasn't the prince you knew but instead an emotional and caring prince. You took away your wrist from his grip. "Where are you going now?" He asked as you started to walk away again but he just followed.
