Prince of RAVENTHORE |•KTH•|

10. Beautiful whispers

"Princess Y/N."

The Princess's heart literally exploded when those lips let out her name in that deep enriched voice.

Y/n's fingers let go of her hanfu and her hands clasped together on her front. Her shivering eyes glued on the floor. Once again her heart started pounding, the louder beats could be felt in her throat.

Never had she imagined hearing her name from his voice so soon.

Y/N gazes to the side, should she just turn around and run away? Because her body is reacting so dangerously right now. Her chest feels swollen.

But before the Princess could even move an inch, she saw steps approaching her.

She's too late to run from the Prince, he has already trapped her. Her eyes found the pair of feet which stopped three steps away from hers. Y/N didn't look up at Taehyung, she stayed frozen for a few seconds before suddenly bowing down to greet.

She was supposed to say "your highness" while bowing but y/n feared she would not let out words without stuttering. So she remained quiet.

Taehyung also bowed his head before clasping his hands behind his back. In the light of the burning flame aside on the wall, Taehyung's dark orbs looks at the Princess.

Her dark open hair,falling freely, no pins and clips there to tuck the teasing small strands falling on her face, Her Face so bare, so exposed, no jewelry, no mask to hide it away from the Prince, her gaze only remained on the floor, Taehyung's eyes didn't travel any further, rather his cold gaze averted to the side.

He should not have called the Princess at this hour of the night. In fact he should not even be meeting her alone like this. But Taehyung wanted to talk to her.

Taehyung slightly turned his body to the side while Y/N was facing him fully. His subtle movement was noticed by the Princess but she still didn't look up.

Taehyung cleared his throat before his lips let out words, "I apologize for breaching the privacy at the moment, Princess. But I want to talk if the Princess can spare me some time."

Y/N forgot her loud heartbeats, her blood rushing up, her cheeks getting warm, her tightened chest, her fidgeting, she forgot everything as soon as Taehyung spoke to her.

He spoke so deep and low yet so soft that it filled Y/n's chest with butterflies. Does he always speak this soft or he intentionally just did it with her?

Y/N lifted her eyes up to look at him but immediately moved her gaze down along with her body awakening as soon as she found those dark orbs looking back at her.

Taehyung had to look at the Princess because he didn't get any verbal response, however Y/N nodded her head in affirmation. So Taehyung looked away again.

"I wanted to apologize about the Morning incident." Taehyung spoke again and this made Y/n look up at him. About the morning? Before the Princess could think what Taehyung said, she got lost in staring.

Staring at Taehyung. Her eyes holding unknown feelings inside them, her enlarged pupils roaming all over his face, looking at every nook, finding a mole on his upper cheek bone, her lips having a subtle smile.

The more she was staring the more her chest was swelling as if something wanted to burst out. It was overwhelming but Y/N was long gone.

Until Taehyung speaks again. "In the morning when you came to me I understood you were mistaking me as someone else and I should have told you I'm not the one you were looking for."

Taehyung glanced at the Princess who was already looking at him and
Y/N was caught again, she was an inch away from gasping right infront of him while holding that mere eye contact but she looked down.
