Prince of RAVENTHORE |•KTH•|

18. A Warning

The night takes over the city, clear sky being cherished with stars and a beautiful half moon.

In the royal empty corridor, quiet steps were being padded against the floor. Alpha Jaehyun was returning to his guest room. The corridor was lit and at this time the servants were also not seen.

Jaehyun's eyes were unfocused, his thoughts occupied by a certain Princess. Perhaps the stars didn't like it one bit because just as he turned into another corridor he was met by the sight of Kim Taehyung.

Thee Taehyung who stars liked to see Y/N with.

Jaehyun's pupils went a little wide for a second before he composed himself instantly. Those pair of cold charcoal orbs were staring into Jaehyun's as if Taehyung was waiting for him there.

Jaehyun roamed his eyes from up to down at Taehyung before looking back at his face with raised eyebrows.

Taehyung stayed silent for a moment, his eyes gazing at the cut mark on Jaehyun's right cheek, in the glow of the flambeau it looked clear and fresh. The Alpha also sensed his gaze and he somewhat knew what was coming from the Prince but Jaehyun stood eye to eye with Taehyung.

"Looks like you got hurt.." Taehyung looks into the Alpha's eyes. ".. yesterday." The way the Prince let it out in his deep voice, it sounded not a question but a proven statement.

Jaehyun's frame wavered a little under the intimidating gaze of Taehyung but he didn't back down. "It has nothing to do with you Kim Taehyung. And why are you here? Forgot your way back?"

Taehyung stared deeply and coldly in Jaehyun's eyes before speaking. "Scars and wounds are proof of either sins or bravery." The prince speaks, taking a step closer to the Alpha. "What does your wound prove?"

Taehyung was gazing at the Alpha with such an intensity that had Jaehyun breath a little heavy. The Alpha's fists clenched on his sides. His jaw taut, "Nobody has gotten the right to talk to me like that. And what are you even trying to imply, Prince Taehyung?" He spoke through gritted teeths.

"Yesterday something happened in the Endrake forest." Taehyung lets out, a sheer dangerous calmness in his voice. Jaehyun was about to speak but he felt a cold sharp metal on his right cheek as Taehyung brought his hand up holding his dagger, the sharp metal was engraved with the words, KTH.

Its sharp edges touch right at the cut mark on the Alpha's cheek. "I never forget the wounds I give to someone, Alpha Jaehyun Moonfang."

Taehyung's cold orbs avert to Jaehyun's.

The Alpha was a pinch away from losing his calm, the anger radiating off his body. His orbs shine a dark red color, his alpha's eyes. Jaehyun pushed away Taehyung's dagger and Taehyung let him, not reacting one bit.

"You are insulting me with your accusations, Kim Taehyung." Jaehyun breathed a little ragged in anger. Taehyung stepped closer to the Alpha, leaning forward to whisper in his ear.

In a low octave deep rough voice, Taehyung whispers huskily. "Stay. Away. From her."

The Prince pulled back after giving a clear dangerous warning to the Alpha.

Jaehyun's nostrils flared, the Alpha urge to tear Taehyung's head off came so strongly into him but he composed himself, holding his rage into his clenched fists. Taehyung gave a last cold look to the Alpha before walking past him, leaving Jaehyun shaking with pure rage.

Taehyung now walks alone in the corridor leading to his guest Chamber. His mind preoccupied. He has just given a warning to Jaehyun for someone who is not his. On whom he has got no right. Yet why did he feel the need to warn Jaehyun for Princess Y/N.
