Jiyeon clutched the shawl around her shoulders, her teeths clattering due to the cold temperature in the dark woods, “Y/N, I'm heading to my pavilion, I'll come to you after I've changed.” She glanced back at the Princess who was standing near her horse. Receiving a smiling nod from her cousin, Jiyeon headed on the path leading to her pavilion.

“So cold, so cold.” Her shivering lips chanted, covering the head by the shawl, her gaze carefully attentive to the pebbled path. She was glancing around the several tents which were made by the soldiers for the night, in the middle was burning fire to provide light to the darkness.

Suddenly Jiyeon felt a figure lurking behind her, she didn't stop walking while glancing back only to see no one. “Looking for someone.” The familiar voice spoke next to her making Jiyeon swiftly turn her head, the hair tresses blew a little around her ears.

She met Jimin's eyes, looking up at him as he fell into steps beside her. Jiyeon rolled her eyes a little, “Yes, brain! Looking for–

“Whose? Yours?” Jimin interrupted, looking at her and Jiyeon glared up at him. “Sorry to wake your highness but your brain doesn't exist, you took birth without a mind.” A smile flashed across Jimin's plump lips as he lifted the oil lamp he was carrying, the yellow glow provided radiance between them.

Jiyeon almost scoffed but reacting to him meant accepting his statement so her pretty orbs only threw daggers at him, the lamp’s glow brightened up Jiyeon's features, casting pretty shadows and Jimin, for a few seconds just stared.

His gaze wanders, losing their focus before going back into those brown orbs.

Her lips parted to speak when she stumbled on a small rock, gasping and Jimin's hand was quick to grasp her arm tightly. “Born without an eyesight too?” He pressed his lips together when those sharp  frowning eyes swiftly looked at him, her dark hair tresses falling on her cheek.

Jiyeon straightened herself, flipping her hair back on her shoulder ,pulling her arm away from Jimin's warm grasp, “Yess, just like you're born without a tail between your legs.”

The words had just left her pretty mouth, freezing Jimin, something warm and cold released from her ears like an imaginary puff of embarrassed air when Jiyeon suddenly ran away with big eyes, gasping to herself, her evil dirty tongue cannot be controlled, can it?

Lighting her hanfu up, she ran towards her Pavilion with her heart racing, her face turning warm in shame, she didn't just utter that to Jimin? Unbelievable. Her right Palm covered her mouth before hitting her head lightly.

Jimin was left staring at a running Princess after committing a sin, the lantern in his hand flashed a glow on his burning face, such sinful words coming from a royal princess should be banned, condemned..
But they, coming from Jiyeon, were anything….

But Sin..

A light slap coming across his hard back made Jimin realise he wasn't breathing. When he started breathing again, it was somewhat ragged. “Jimin Hyung, your Pavilion is ready.” Yeonjun spoke from behind, “I'll share it with you, Hyung.” The youngest informed while glancing around until his sight caught his brother's wife…

“I'll join you in a few.” Yeonjun walked away without receiving a reply from Jimin. The Prince turned around but his hazy unfathomable gaze traveled to a certain pavilion which was now shut hiding that pretty criminal within it.

“Such a bold and sharp tongue.”

“My Luna.” Y/N murmurs, caressing her Royal horse’s face affectionately, her slender fingers looked small against Luna’s face, the Princess named her Luna after the moon–because she was as white as the pretty moon having these blonde hair on her nape..
