KINGDOM OF SILLA

(YOONGI'S P.O.V)

"So, you are telling me that you just brought some girl to the palace?" I asked my head guard, Shownu.

He nodded slowly and said, "The guards found her. We suspect she was kidnapped."

"I will get some court ladies to attend to her," I replied. Shownu bowed and took his leave.

I sighed and called over my adviser, Jimin. "Jimin, call some court ladies and take them to the guest room. Tell them they are to look after the girl while she is here."

He nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty. Also, Kihyun and Soonyoung are on their way over to the palace. I will have them escorted to you when they arrive."

"Okay. I will be with Jihoon in the garden." With that, he bowed and left to do as I asked.

I got off the throne and walked out to the garden where my little brother was waiting for me. It was only the two of us: my little brother who is 10 years old, his name is Jihoon. And I am Yoongi, I became king of Silla at the age of 18 when our parents passed away. I am now 22 years old. Many thought I would not be able to handle the throne at such a young age but I didn't have a choice. The two people who Jimin was talking about, Kihyun and Soonyoung, are good friends of me and my brother. They are the sons of two of our ministers. Kihyun is 21 and Soonyoung is 10. As you can see with the ages, Soonyoung is Jihoon's friend and Kihyun is mine.

People who know me well know I have a cold façade that I had ever since I was young. I didn't trust others easily and came off harsh. That is a reason why most of the palace staff is scared of me, but the truth is I am nothing like they think I am, and maybe one day they will see the real side of me.

"Your Majesty, you came," I heard my little brother say. I smiled and walked to him.

"Yes I did, Jihoon-ah. Also you don't have to be so formal. I mean, we are brothers, right?" He nodded and grinned.

I patted his hea. "Oh right. We have a guest. You might see her around tomorrow, since she just arrived, according to Shownu. She didn't look like she was in a good state,"

"You aren't going to be all mean to her, are you?" he asked. I shrugged and didn't say anything, making him sigh.

"Jihoon. Jihoonie!" we heard someone call from behind us. We saw Soonyoung running to us and Kihyun walking behind him laughing at how excited he was.

I smiled and stood up. "Hello Soonyoungie, hello Kihyunie", I greeted them both.

"Hello, Your Majesty," said Soonyoung.

"Hello, Yoongi," Kihyun stated. We all sat in the gardenm talking to one another for about three hours until we were interrupted by Jimin.

"Sorry to bother you, your Majesty, but the girl has woken up."

I nodded and got up. "I will be back. I need to go check on something."

I followed Jimin to the girl's room. He knocked and entered the room with me trailing behind him. I saw a girl with long brown hair and big brown eyes.

"Miss," Jimin said.

She looked up, a bit startled. She was beautiful to the point where I couldn't even describe it.

"This is His Majesty," Jimin introduced me. She gazed at me and quickly tried to get up but didn't have the strength. I wanted to smile but I hid it.

"Don't worry. Just rest for now. I simply came to meet you. I am Yoongi, king of Silla and this is my adviser, Jimin... and you are?"

She thought for a bit and said, "I can't remember. I'm sorry, your Majesty."

I took a better look at her and saw the bump on her head. She must have been knocked out so hard that she can't remember anything. Bastards.

"Don't worry you can stay here until you remember. I will have someone go and get you some clothes tomorrow. In the mean time, we will try to see if we can find out which Kingdom you are from."

She bowed from where she was sitting, thanking me. After that, we both left the room so she can rest some more. I went back to the garden only to see Kihyun playing with Jihoon and Soonyoung. I smiled and walked over to them only to be jumped by Jihoon. "Is she really awake? What's her name?"

I nodded as he got off of me and said, "Yes, she is. But she can't seem to remember her name. It seemed like somebody hit her on the head really hard but she is resting some more for now. She will be staying with us until she can regain her memories."

He smiled happily. "Yay! Finally, we have someone who can be our sister."

I laughed and told him to go back to Soonyoung and play.

I went and sat on the bench in the garden. I rested my head in my hands, smiling while thinking of her. How can a person be so beautiful? Then I felt a hand on my shoulder. I lifted my head and turned to my right to see Kihyun.

"So... who is this girl?" he asked, wiggling his eyebrows.

"Well, you see, Shownu brought a girl today. She was kidnapped," I explained, "They found her in a merchant's litter. The guards at the borders snuck her out to make sure she would be safe and brought her here. She woke up now and can't remember a thing, not even her own name. We are going to try and find out where she came from so we can return her back to her parents. They must be so worried."

"Ah, I see... Now tell me, why were you smiling when you came back?" he inquired.

"Well... I don't even know. I couldn't even act cold to her."

He looked at me, shocked, and said, "Wait. Not acting cold... Are you telling me one girl can do that to you? Wow, she must be amazing."

We both laughed and I thought about his words. I agree, she sure is amazing.
