Poisoned Hearts || BTS Royalty Au! [editing]

|Part 4|

The birds chirped sweetly as the sound of the waves hitting the huge rocks near the sea shore resonated across the beach, while the sound of the wind against the leaves of the trees could be heard as well. It was still dark but not too dark to not be able to see.

You opened your eyes and let out a yawn. You laid down there, staring at the blank ceiling, guessing it was probably around 5am, you sat up straight and cracked your neck and knuckles and stretched your limbs.

You got out of your bed and ran a hand through your short locks, and rubbed your eyes a bit before you changed out of your night gown. You wore a brown shirt and black pants with your boots.

You made sure to close the door of your new room before walking towards the bathroom. You freshened up and decided that it was time to deal with that brat again. You walked back to your room to take your sword, before making your way to the prince's chamber.

You knocked on the door waiting for response from the prince. You could hear a faint 'come in' before you made your way inside the room.

You silently walked inside the room and closed the door behind you and stood beside the door with your poker face.

He was there, sitting on a nice chair that was facing the window. He stared outside the window as he was deep in thought. He could sense a presence inside the room, and he didn't have to guess twice to know it was you.

"A good morning would've been nice..." He mumbled underneath his breath, but it was loud enough for you to hear him.

You just ignored whatever he just said and paid him no mind.

He gritted his teeth as he tilted his to the right. He let out a sigh as he slowly stood up from the chair. He turned around so he was facing you now. He started taking slow yet steady and powerful steps towards you. Every sound that was made when he stepped closer to your still form screamed authority.

You just stood there and raised an eyebrow, curious of what he was up to. But you still stood in the same place and looked straight at him.

Before you knew it, you both were face to face with each other. He glared into your eyes. You could clearly see the annoyance in his eyes as you stared into his eyes.

"Look here little girl, when I nicely ask you to do something, you better do it. Don't forget who is above you. No your place... Otherwise I'll show you your place, darling... But trust me. You wouldn't want that... Would you~?" He put a hand on one side of your head as he said that with a threatening tone and smiled bitterly at you.

Once again, everything about him screamed authority.

You didn't seem even the slightest bit fazed by his threat. You just tilted your head and smirked. "Why~ if I don't will you cry and run to your Papa and nag about it?" You mocked him, the smirk never leaving your face. You couldn't really punch him right now, because that would mean trouble, and you wouldn't want that.

He leaned back a bit and his hand fell back to his side as he stared at you with an unreadable expression. He stared at you for a good 30 seconds, which were probably the most awkward 30 seconds of your life.

Suddenly, he started laughing. You must say you were taken aback by that.

The sound of his sweet laughter which was quite deep filled the room. You looked at him in confusion. (I'm confusion) did you say something funny?

He wiped off the non-existent tears from the corner of his eyes as he clutched his stomach. "You really aren't scared are you?... That's quite interesting. Ah~ I guess I'll keep you around... You might be more fun than the other ones." He said as he looked at you again with a huge grin. The annoyance in his eyes was replaced by amusement.

"Um... The only thing that I wouldn't want is a death sentence. So as long as I can control my fists from making contact with your nose, I'm fine. But, well, I can still speak however I please, I haven't disrespected you in anyway~ have I~" sarcasm dripped down her tone when she said the last part.

"And if you are going to say that ignoring you could end up with punishment. I can just say that I have a weak hearing ability in my own defense." You said with a fake grin plastered to your face.

He seemed genuinely amused, you were challenging... Which man didn't like a challenge? You were just... A new kind of challenge.

He leaned in again to whisper in your ear, as he was about to say something a knock was heard from the door beside you both. You both snapped your heads towards the direction of the sound.

Taehyung leaned back instantly and walked back to his chair. "Come in." He said sternly.

A bright and hyper Jungkook entered the room with a charming smile prominent on his handsome face. "Good morning brother! Good morning Hyurae!" He chimed as he sat down on Taehyung's bed.

"Good morning to you as well, your highness." You said as you bowed your head in respect. You didn't know why, but you felt like respecting Jungkook more than Taehyung. Maybe because you loved pissing that brat off.

"Good morning Kook" Taehyung said with a small smile as he looked at his younger brother in adoration.

"Yah! Hyurae, please don't be so formal with me... Just call me Jungkook. Or maybe Kookie." He said followed by a sly wink.

You laughed softly which took you by surprise. You hadn't really laughed genuinely in a long time... And you missed how it felt to laugh genuinely.

You made sure not to show your surprise as you tried to play it off as normal. You thought you covered your surprise well.

But it was too late. Someone had already noticed it and was getting a tad bit curious about you.

'why on Earth would she be surprised to laugh... Aish...'
