"You know Ara." The King sighed, "Seungcheol is still grieving over his lost soulmate. He needs to marry and attain the throne, it's his responsibility."
"Will his soulmate not reincarnate?" Mr. Kim looked up.
"She was cursed, we all know that."
"I...
"Hari died." Hyejeong sighed, "I had told you all that she was useless."
"She- WHAT?" Yeonjin gasped.
"Yeah." Junwoo nodded, "Jeonghan killed her."
"I'm telling you all, stop trusting random people." Hyejeong stated, "Let's get them all by ourselves."
"You're right." Jaejun scoffed, "We need to get involved completely now."
"Alright." Yeonjin said firmly, "Let's get to work."
"So what would be the plan?" Junwoo leaned against the wall.
"We've to get into the palace." Jaejun suggested, "Look, I think rushing everything would be quiet a disadvantage for us. Let's take it slow."
"Yeah right." Hyejeong nodded, "Let's plant the seeds of our plan gradually and then one specific day, go all in."
"I agree." Junwoo paused, "Our steps need to be careful and calculated."
"So, we need to collect information about the palace first, right?" Yeonjin asked.
"We've enough information, to be honest." Hyejeong intervened.
"It's the time to use our spells, change our identities and get into the palace." Jajeun stood up as he declared.
"That sounds like a solid plan." Junwoo agreed, "But we've to be careful."
"Right." Yeonjin nodded, "We need to pick our spells and disguises carefully."
"All the best to Phoenix!!" Jaejun encouraged.

<Choi Palace>
Seungcheol stirred awake in his sleep as he found his arms wrapped around the younger's waist, who was still deep in sleep. Jeonghan's back was pressed against the older's bare chest while the younger was wearing a loose shirt which probably belonged to Seungcheol.
Seungcheol cautiously pulled Jeonghan even closer, nuzzling his face into the crook of the younger's neck.
After remaining like that for a couple of minutes, Seungcheol couldn't help but feel a mischievous urge to tease the younger. His lips grazed over his neck, leaving a trail of soft kisses, "Wake up, darling."
"Mhmm shut up." Jeonghan muttered.
"But I can't help myself." Seungcheol whispered, "You're too adorable."
Jeonghan didn't reply as he simply sighed.
Seungcheol nibbled on the younger's earlobe, "I woke up only to get ignored by my own husband."
