Risky

" Take you time Tae, no one is rushing you here into this. It's not like they already fixed the event dates....... yet. So prepare yourself from now. Just know someday it's going to happen because we can't really do anything to stop it. " Yoonji muttered out while helping Taehyung to get dressed for his sword lesson.

Taehyung just hummed along. It wasn't like he had much to do here anyways. He couldn't blame her either. She could do nothing,  at least she was still reassuring and comforting him. " Do your best! " she added. He flashed a forced smile to her and nodded before leaving with the guards.

---------------------------------------------------------

Taehyung was paying his horse a visit after his sword lesson finished since the horse stable was closer to the royal training ground. Nowadays him and his horse didn't get to travel together as frequently as they used to. So he came to check on his precious horse.

After spending some time there and walking around to see the other horses he thought it was time to leave. Just when he was about to leave he felt a pair of eyes on him. So naturally he followed his intuition and saw Jeon glaring at him in a cold manner from afar while he was talking to some guards.

" Creep. " He mumbled under his breath as he walked away with his personal guards while still feeling Jeon's eyes burning a hole through his back. It was the weird annoyance that he felt everytime he looked at that man.

" Still the same shameless creep. "

" You called me father? " Taehyung asked while entering his father's office. " Uh yes. I did. It was about the....... ceremony. I know you aren't entertained by this at all but at least try to pretend to make the other kingdoms believe we aren't forced to do anything. We don't want any harm to our reputation.  " The king said.

Obviously Taehyung could do nothing but nod. He understood what his father meant. He really did. That's why he had been quiet the whole time.  " This week. The ceremony will be in this week. At friday evening the ceremony will take place inside our palace. Prepare yourself for the event. " his father added while flashing a smile towards him. An attempt to make his son feel somewhat better. 

The omega just smiled back. Even though many emotions were working within him at once, he tried his best to not make a fuss about it. After all, this was meant to happen. He was just an omega.

-----------------------------------------------------------

This week felt shorter than the other weeks for some reason. The entire kingdom was busy in the celebration and preperation of the prince's marriage. Everyone was happy. Everyone was excited except the prince himself.

" Moon Goddess, tonight is my last and only chance to stop this. Please give me the power to do this. Please give me your blessing so I can achieve success in what I'm about to do. " The prince begged in the prayer while clutching both of his hands in such desperation.

He wiped his tears before wearing the long black scarf to cover him just enough. He was wearing a blue velvet robe, exactly what his companions wore. He was sure the guards around his rooms were sleeping in this point of the night.

That's why he order the worst guards to guard his room tonight after all. Holding a candle he started walking through the hallway. Passing most of the unsuspecting guards as the candle light wasn't putting much light on his face to be seen.

The prince wasn't allowed to walk around his palace at night for his own safety but there he was, walking himself to the dominion palace of Jeon. Was he scared and humiliated? Obviously yes but it was his only hope.
