**Namjoon's POV**

When she said that, I flashed back to when Laura told me that. Because why not... why not save people who stole because they were pressured or in trouble. Why not help people who needed to be helped... why not. I slowly lifted my arm up and around her shoulder to hug her. Suddenly she takes my arm and does it herself.

My face was like blood red, that's how hard I was blushing. Deep down in my stomach, I wanted to just be there for her and not betray her like this... but I have my goals and I want to keep it that way. But Mia is making me have these feelings where I don't want to do this anymore. I just want to tell her everything... tell her I'm the person you are looking for. But I can't and I don't know why.

She stared at me then our eyes sparkled like stars, we lean in. Then something grabbed her attention, she spotted and looked in front of her. "Excuse me?" She said with an irritated voice.

When I glanced at what she was looking at my whole heart dropped to the floor. It was the same guys we saw the other day... what the fuck are they doing here? "GUARDS!" I yelled out to get Yoongi, Jin, Taehyung, and Jungkook attention. They came rushing in immediately, Yoongi and Jk swords are drawn to the stranger.

"I mean no harm to the princess, I swear. I didn't mean to ruin your moment as well. I want to let you know that people have witnessed strange activity around a train yard nearby"

"A train yard? Why are you telling me this unexpectedly?" she asked. Why is he telling her this? When we haven't been around that area that often. I peeked at Taehyung, whose eyes felt guilty.

"Because it's probably the people you are looking for" he smiled and walked away. That was the creepiest thing I have ever seen in my life. Mia told her guards to put the swords down as it wasn't any danger. I had to play it off like nothing really shocked me. So, I asked what was he talking about?

"I want guards to examine that area, to see if any suspicious activity is there. If the fugitives are back then we must be cautious"

Her servants agreed to the order, that's when we were escorted back to the palace. After saying goodbye, she gave me a kiss on the cheek as the doors closed shut. My blood was boiling right now. Jk, Tae, and I went back to the house in a rush. Once we got to the room, I wanted to strangle my little brother so bad.

"What the fuck did you do Tae?"

"I didn't do anything I swear" he said nervously.

"Then why in the hell did you look so nervous for? Why did you look guilty when that guy said that" I was trying to keep my voice down in case someone could hear. Jungkook was trying to defend his boyfriend but I told him to stay out of this as this wasn't his problem. Tae began to shiver in fear as he witnessed me mad beyond the danger line.

Then he got on the ground and told me that he went to the trailer to grab some things they left behind, like a picture of them. After that, he saw the guys around there— they probably saw him walking around. He begged for his life that he didn't mean to that. He didn't know that was going to happen at all.

"Tae, you know that was a risky move right? The princess is now going to realize that place is the same place she sent us to. Then she going to connect the dots and trace everything back to us. Do you know the danger you put us in?"

He gets up from his knees "That is not Laura, there's no way in hell. You just making shit up and thinking that's Laura. If so, why would she go search it when she knows?" He crossed his arms. Taehyung is not going to understand what am about to say, so I tried to explain it a little simpler.

"You think am lying because you don't see what I see Tae. Mia is Laura, everything she told me matches"

"That doesn't explain her not knowing where she placed us. If that really was "Laura" then she would steer away from the guards into a different location than the train yard. Instead of telling them to go there"

I told if he didn't get caught walking around there, then that wouldn't be a problem. Mia
was going by herself but since someone told her about seeing people, the guards have to warn about the situation. "She wanted to go to atone for her sins, due to the fact Mia felt guilty for even releasing us that day"

He did his confused face as of how did I know that. I explained that she told me this as she felt like she was the reason that everything became crap that day. "Our parents attempt to kill the queen for some reason... don't know. How she wants to atone to her sins, by looking for us— turning us in to lure out our parents to kill us"

Tae and Jungkook eyes flew wide open like they have seen a ghost. I know they going to freak out about the news, but I know that she doesn't want to do this and that she's has a heart. They both went to bed and fell on it. "You know how much trouble I'm going to be, due to the fact I knew about this and continue to courage this. I'm fucking dead"  Jungkook said.

"We can't let her do that! I don't care if she helped us anymore. That is cruel! Uses us as bait to lure in our parents... that's fucking demonic. Then you up here thinking this crap is okay!"

I began to calm him down, if he hasn't been found then she wouldn't have guards search the place. That she was going to do it alone... but I also told him that deep down she doesn't want to do this. "I could feel that she doesn't want to kill us because the princess is not that type of person to do that. Mia has a heart and care for her citizens, rather they did wrong or not. She knew the consequences before even helping us that day. She knew she did wrong, but the thing is why didn't she want to fix the problem in the beginning than waiting almost six years?"

"Why the hell are you defending her! It doesn't matter, she wants to do right now and release every sin she had by getting rid of us before she becomes queen. I don't care, the princess only does right when it benefits her and not because she cares" Taehyung shouted. Jungkook grabbed his furious boyfriend and took him out of the room to cool him down.

I stood there wondering, am I defending her because I know her true intentions or is the feelings I have for her growing?
