Jungkook's P.O.V

I came out of the bathroom, drying my hair with a towel while another towel was wrapped securely on my waist.

It was getting a little hot, so I decided to take a shower while we weren't being called down for lunch yet.

I put on some comfy clothes, which were casual, since a prince may act fancy for other eyes to see, but they tend to have the need to feel normal for once.

As I was finished, there was a knock on the door.

I opened the door to be met with a handsome man, looking at me with  piercing dark eyes.

He bowed. "Prince Jungkook, it's time for lunch." He said with his deep voice, sending shivers down my spine.

"Uhm... thank you, but... who are you?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

He blinked "oh, my apologies. I'm Kim Taehyung, your new personal guard, as assigned by the king." He answered.

My mind went blank.

'Holy shit, are you sure this guy is a guard?! He looks like a God!'

"Uhm... Your highness?" He called out, confused.

I blinked a couple of times and soon blushed in embarrassment. "I-i'm sorry, something just came in mind." I said, nervously.

He stared at me for a solid second but soon nodded, smiling warmly.

"Shall we go? They're waiting for you, your highness." He reminded.

I nodded as we walked side by side, heading to the dining room downstairs.

"So... you'll be watching over me from now on?" I asked, breaking the awkward silence.

"Yes."

"I haven't seen you here before... are you new by any chance?" I asked again, this time, glancing at him for a brief moment.

"No, actually, I was on a vacation, and I just came back." He answered.

I nodded and ended the conversation there, since I knew that I was getting nowhere with this.

"Is something wrong, your majesty?" He soon asked, catching me off-guard.

"I'm alright. Just, confused to why someone would try to kill me.." I spoke.

He hummed, sparing a glance at me but soon stopped in his tracks.

"You may go in Prince Jungkook. I'll be waiting here." He said. I looked at him but nodded as I went inside.

"Jungkook! Did you meet your personal guard?" My Eomma, Jin asked, smiling warmly as he gestured me to sit down.

I nodded as I sat down beside Yoongi hyung.

We began eating, talking about some things every once in awhile.

Taehyung's P.O.V

I was standing in front of the doors of the dining room, mind up the clouds, as thoughts of the Prince came flooding in my mind.

"Yo, Taehyung!" A voice casually spoke, I turned my head to see it was none other than Lieutenant Hoseok, a close friend of mine.

I smiled and waved at him. "Hey."

"So, I heard you got assigned to protect prince Jungkook, is it true? Also what were your expectations?" He said, giving me a playful grin.

I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, but I never really expected the prince himself to be so... ethereal."

He stared at me for a moment but soon chuckled, crossing his arms. "I think someone has fallen for the prince." He soon teased.

"I don't think so." I denied. He rolled his eyes. "Whatever you say, but if you find out your real feelings in the long run, i'll tell you, 'I was right'."

"Ugh, don't." I said. He chuckled "fine, anyways, I gotta get back to my station, i'll talk to you later, Tae."

He bade goodbye as he patted my shoulder and left.

I furrowed my eyebrows, slowly looking away from where Hoseok had left off.

'I can't fall in love with the prince, but... it's hard not to.'

I shook my head and sighed.

"Get yourself together, Taehyung. Your only duty is to protect the prince and nothing more."
