A dance, a night, a trio.

Classical music playing in the background, the sound of dancing with shoes and heels. Men, and women, all in harmonic peace. Masks covering their identity create no conflict.

Blossoming love in every corner.

Hidden secrets.

Luminary love.

Minho walked around the huge hall, dazzling ladies with heavy makeup and gorgeous gowns. Men with their silky coats and shining hair dancing gallantly with their ladies.

And there was Minho, alone.

Some men had danced with each other– and vice versa with ladies as well. It made him lonely, the thought that he had no one.

The hosts of this fine masquerade were the two kings of the prosperous land. Married 2 years ago and brought together 2 kingdoms to create this peaceful place. King, Bang and Hwang. Minho had huge respect for both of them.

So here he was, the Duke of the North, Minho. A black suit with shades of dark gray. His raven hair covered the soulless eyes he had. Love out of his reach, the north was not a place of romance. The cold weather with the heavy snowfall. Minho dreaded loneliness but he put it off since his childhood. After his parents both died from illness he was alone. An empty mansion by himself and a few workers and the whole north military guard.

He was known as the "Ice Duke of The North." He felt a sense of pride with the title, but he did not know his presence would make females swoon over him.

He stood on the large balcony, a glass of wine in his hands and a black mask over his eyes. Everyone had worn colorful gowns and cloaks while he stood in the corner with his dark shades.

Tonight the 2 kings were blending in with the guests enjoying their time together. Minho was curious about what they looked like, being in the North never allowed him to see or meet them. His duties called for him too often making him miss all the balls and gala's. He didn't mind since they seemed like a headache either way.

"You seem lonely tonight, mate." Minho heard a friendly voice from behind him. He tilted his head back to see 2 taller males. Minho didn't say anything ignoring their presence.

"Well, that's not very nice." The other giggled softly.

Minho felt something swirl in him, just hearing their voices brought a blush to his face. But who were they?

"My apologies," Minho finally spoke, giving a mini bow before taking his leave.

"Hey! Why are you leaving?" The shorter one asked, his long raven hair was tied back and he wore a white silky suit that matched the other man next to him.

"I'll be taking my leave now," Minho said looking at them. People here were of high importance which meant the people he was talking to might be a big deal. But Minho didn't care.

"Already? You haven't even seen the fireworks yet, stay." The blond curly-haired haired smiled. With his white mask covering the top half of his face Minho could see something in his eyes. Never experiencing something like this, he gave up.

"Alright," Minho agreed dryly, he didn't have anything better to do tonight.

"That's great!" The blond one smiled while clapping his hands together. "And what's your name?" He asked Minho.

"Just call me Minho," the short raven-haired said not caring too much

"The duke? What a delight it is to meet you." He said smiling. But it felt like he already knew Minho, Minho just didn't know him.

"Truly," the blond agreed.

"And you two? I suppose you have a name too." Minho ended with a small tone of sarcasm.

"Ahh, yes," The raven-haired laughed lightly. "I usually get called with higher names but Hyunjin is fine." He smiled. Minho felt something blossom in him, he was talking to one of the Kings of THIS land.

"Oh, my apologies for my rudeness, your majesty." Minho bowed formally, feeling embarrassed for the first time ever.

"The act changed pretty fast didn't it?" The blond joked but he patted Minho's back with a grin. "The name's Chan mate." He grinned.

Minho wanted the world to open and swallow him right now, his face fumed with pink. He was quite shocked. It's not every day you talk to the 2 kings of your kingdom.

"I really do apologize for my attitude earlier. I came here bearing no good mood." Minho said with guilt on his face.

"And why's that?" Hyunjin asked, tilting his head with a finger on his lips making a slight pout. The two kings may be covered with a mask but they were really charming.

"I'm not used to being in parties or crowds at all other than when the army is involved," Minho admitted.

"I could tell, you do work quite a lot. I've seen the reports I get." Chan smiled kindly.

"You should let yourself slack off a bit, it won't kill ya," Hyunjin suggested.

"No thank you." Minho politely rejected it. He was already embarrassed as is.

"Oh, c'mon." Chan sulked. Minho felt the same feeling from earlier growth, his stop was swirling with butterflies.

"Minho," Hyunjin called and made Minho look at the dark-haired.

"Can I help you?"

"Do you feel anything?" Hyunjin asked. "A luminary-like feeling. Something blossoming. In here." Hyujin put a finger on Minho's chest right where his heart was.

"Y-yeah." Minho stuttered for the first time.

"What do you think it is?" Chan came asking from behind him. His voice was foggy in Minho's ear. Blinded by the feeling in his heart.

"I-I don't know," Minho said, looking down, and lowering his glass. Hyunjin took it aside and balanced it on the railing.

"Explain, what do you feel right now?" Chan asked, his hand trailing around Minho's waist.

"My heart is racing really fast." Minho started, his mind going blank and not piercing words together.

"Keep going," Hyunjin said, leaning his face closer to Minho and softly kissing his jaw.

"I feel a tingly sensation rush through me."

"Good," Chan said, kissing Minho's nape while his hands massaged the boy's waist.

"What are you two doing?" Minho asked feeling different about the whole situation.

"What do you think we're doing?" Chan asked stopping with a smirk.

"T-touching me."

"And what do you think it means."

"I-I don't know," Minho said moving his hands to his face feeling so flustered.

"Take a guess, sweetheart," Chan said gently rubbing Minho's belly to calm him.

"Y-you like me?" Minho said with so much doubt.

"Ahh, you're so cute!" Hyunjins said moving Minho's out and cupping the shorter face. "Spot on!" Hyunjin cheered kissing the older cheek.

"W-what?" Minho said sounding confused.

"Take you're time to process everything, It's pretty shocking either way." Hyunjin giggled.

"Why do you like me all of a sudden?" Minho asked sounding genuinely confused.

"All of a sudden when? We've liked you since the moment we've seen you."

"Today?"

"10 years ago sweetheart."
