His Shadow

Chapter 51

The first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was the King's face.

He was lying on his side while a very distressed King sat by his bed doing something on his phone.

Two pillows were kept behind his back and stomach so that he couldn't lie on his back and hurt his shoulder. He could feel the thick of a bandage wrapped around his chest and shoulder.

He sighed in relief that he didn't die. He was so scared to leave his cub all alone.

Wait.

His cub.

He left his cub with all those men and that bitch.

His eyes opened wide and he sprang up. But the second he sat up, he groaned loudly as his wound stretched from being kept in one position for so long.

He squeezed his eyes shut to help relieve the pain and took deep breaths just as he heard the King stand up in worry and ask him,
"Taehyung! How do you feel? Don't move!"

He opened his eyes and ignoring the King's face he started looking around the room.

His worry only grew more when he couldn't find the one person he had woken up to see.

Did something happen?

He must be okay, right?

Right?

His gaze finally fell on the King who was looking at him with some fear in his eyes as if he was hiding something.

"Where is he?"

The King gulped, giving the only sign that he knew who Taehyung was talking about before he played it off by saying,
"Who? Taehyung first you need to lie down, then we'll talk."

Taehyung immediately caught the lie and his gaze turned into a glare but his fear only grew. He looked down at the saline drip connected to his arm.

"Taehyung! Are you even listening to me? Please lie back down!"

His gaze moved to his other arm where another bandaid was put.

Where is Jungkook?

Is he okay?

If the King's here that means they got there in time.

They did, right?

He looked up at the King with wide eyes as if trying to communicate through them.

He slowly pulled out the saline drip connected to his arm and a few drops of blood dropped to the ground but he didn't care.

The King frowned at that and said,
"What are you doing? Sit Down!"

But Taehyung ignored him and stood up before closing his eyes again as a wave of dizziness hit him.

The King immediately held his arms and tried to push him back on the bed but only if he could.

Taehyung groaned and pulled his arm away,
"Where is he?" He asked again.

The King shook his head and softly said,
"He was very stressed so he's sleeping, don't worry. Please Taehyung you both need rest right now! Sit down!"

Taehyung tried to push him away but the King held him with full strength and because he was dizzy on the pain as well as the painkillers he couldn't push the King away.

"If he's sleeping, I'll sleep with him then! Let me go to him!" Taehyung tried to say but then he saw the King yell for the doctor.
