Hoseok was in a daze.



When you prepare yourself for certain death, the thought that it might be escapable doesn't cross your mind.




The thought that a general, especially one of Ten's stature would deliberately deny his king vital information baffled Hoseok.



He would be lying if Ten's obvious protection of him didn't make butterflies explode in his stomach, a foreign feeling that honestly made him a bit queasy.



He had never felt this way before, having an undeniable attraction to some guy who would risk his job, career, and his fucking life just to keep him alive.



He could have jumped onto Ten right there, and kissed him full on the mouth, and yet.....



His soldier brain took over, shoving any thoughts out of his mind the moment he heard the voice of a serpent seeping through the walls.



"So the poison has been working then? He will be showing signs within the week?" the King crooned, his smirk so loud Hoseok could hear it.


"Yes sir, if he hasn't already been feeling ill, his men should know by tomorrow."



"Perfect. That's all for tonight. You may retire."


Hoseok listened for all the various sounds to disappear before sliding from his hiding place, slowly pacing back to his bed, the nightly routine his body knew by heart.



Who?

Who was poisoned?





Damn, if I had only listened closer,   Hoseok scolded himself, deliberately forcing himself not to think about a certain lean, silver haired man who both captivated and terrified him.



It was only a matter of time before he would find out.

"Jaemin hold still, you'll give away everything if you don't act normal," Yoongi scolded, now perfectly familiar with the young man whose attention was snatched by the eye smiling prince.
