Escape {Park Jimin x Reader}

Ch.21;Eavesdropping

(Your Name)'s POV

We succeeded the mission and we walked home. I'm so relieved that it was over and that I don't have to work there anymore. Being in there was torture, the flirting of drunk men got me annoyed and it was really stuffy in there. And it's summer right now, which made it worse.

We finally reached home and we were tired. Yoongi and Hoseok sat down on the sofa as Jimin leaned on the wall. I just stood there tired from all that walking. Jimin brought a chair from the kitchen and made me sit down, which I did.

"Let me see the money," Yoongi said as he sat up straight. Jimin nodded and took all the money he had hidden. Hoseok's face brightened up and started to count one stack of money as Yoongi counted the other half.

"For your first mission, you did good. But later on you'll have to do much harder tasks than this. This one was pretty easy," Yoongi said as I nodded in response. Then Yoongi got up from the sofa.

"Well, I'm going to put this in our vault for safe keeping. Then I'm going to sleep, which you guys should do to. Good night," Yoongi said as he took the money from Hoseok and went upstairs.

"See you in the morning, I'm pretty tired," Hoseok said. He then stood up and went to his room, leaving Jimin and I alone.

"I'm going to take a shower," Jimin said as he walked to his room.

"Won't you get sick?" I asked. He turned around to face me.

"I won't I promise," he said as he went to his room. I walked to his room to get easy to sleep. He walked out his room with a towel and extra clothes and went to the bathroom next to his room. I went inside his room, got into my sleeping clothes, and I fell into a deep slumber.

Milton's POV

Mostly everyone in the castle are fast asleep. Except for the main guards and my father. They were discussing a plan to find (Your Name) since all those search parties we had around the castle wasn't enough. There were papers all around the kingdom if anyone has found her, but I knew no one would find her for two reasons. She is hard to find since when my siblings and I played hide-and-seek when we were younger, it would last for hours since we couldn't find her. Yes it's a big castle, but the only way we can find her is if she is found by a guard because we either are going to eat or for any reason my parents needed her. The second reason (if my thesis is correct that she left with the criminals) is that she left with pretty smart criminals. I won't say they're mastermind since they did get caught stealing her tiara, but they were smart to get in the castle. She could be staying with them or she left somewhere far and just used them to get out. I don't know exactly but knowing my sister, she is too scared to be alone. So she probably is with them or someone else.

I walk to my father's study and pressed my ear to the door. My parents have taught me to not eavesdrop on important conversations like this, but I can't help it. If it involves with my sister, I definitely need to know. I can hear mumbling sounds which I cannot understand, but I can understand a few words. This can get me into trouble, but I slightly and slowly opened the door to hear the conversation more clearer.

"I don't exactly trust the civilians at the kingdom. Maybe they know where she is at but won't say anything," a guard said.

"What should we do about that though. We cannot just bring them one by one and interrogate them," another guard said.

"Maybe if we go to their house and search. How about we have 4 to 5 soldiers check each house starting tomorrow. We should not inform the people since they can be clever and hide her," the captain of the guards said. My father hummed in response.

"I like that idea. Tomorrow after I eat breakfast, you shall begin the search," my father said. A part of me wants my sister back knowing she is safe here in the castle, but the other is I don't want her to come back. Don't get me wrong, I love my sister but knowing that my father would want to decrease the time for the marriage as a punishment, I would not want her here. I don't want my sister to marry that piece of garbage like Mike at all.

"I thought I taught you better to eavesdrop," I hear someone say behind me. Turning around, I see my grandma there with a disappointing look in her face.

"Sorry," I said as I looked down.

"Go to your room and sleep. Tomorrow I want to discuss with you and your brother," she said. I nodded and went to my room.

Time Skip~

(Your Name)'s POV

I woke up to someone shaking me fiercely. I woke up to see Jungook shaking me with worry in his eyes. He saw me waking up and sat me straight.

"We have to leave," he whispered. I raised my eyebrow.

"Jin and I went to the market to get some groceries and we heard a guard that the king is going to send soldiers to check the houses for you," he explained. I widened my eyes.

"But why you too?" I asked.

"He'll recognize me and the others. So we have to leave. You, Yoongi, Jimin, Namjoon, Hoseok and I have to leave like right now before they catch us," he said. I nodded and got up and got some clothes to dress up in. Jungook left me to dress and I got out the room. I see everyone in the living room.

"C'mon Princess, we need to go," Hoseok said.

"How about Jin and Taehyung?" I ask.

"They won't be looking for them. C'mon we have to go!" Yoongi said. I waved good bye to the two boys and we left.
