Hoseok had slept all morning and had woken up when someone shook his shoulder. Hoseok Rubbed his eyes and then groaned. He squinted to clearly see the person who was shaking him. 

"Oh, Namjoonie?" Hoseok said. Namjoon smiled and nodded. 

"Your highness, it is too late and your father wants your presence at the lunch time. Don't worry, he is not angry that you weren't present at breakfast. I covered for you." Namjoon finished and till now, Hoseok was sitting up straight with his back to the headboard.

"Thank you Joonie. I have skipped breakfast?"

"Yeah, I came to wake you up, but Taehyungie told me to leave you asleep as you both had slept late at night." At the mention of Taehyung, he looked around. He had just registered that Taehyung wasn't beside him. He looked at Namjoon confused.

"He has already woken up and is now with your father discussing some financial problems occurring in Nampo. Technically, the governor over there is being investigated for corruption and it seems he has stolen 100,000 won from the government and he has also many properties in the London and North Carolina in America." Hoseok raised his brows and shook his head.

"He should be very brave to steal money from my father." He said and laughed. When the atmosphere was silent again, Namjoon spoke up.

"Hobi-hyung, TaeTae told me about what you asked him for last night." Namjoon said and Hoseok looked at him wide eyed. He was gonna ask Namjoon too for his permission. Of course, he wouldn't do anything without Namjoon's permission.

"I am okay with it. I know what you've been through and I have also seen the seating arrangement. I was very angry at that. I am totally fine but on one condition." He said and Hoseok looked up at him.

"Anything." Hoseok said.

"I want you to give a chance to Jimin and Yoongi. They've been here for a few days and by their activities, I can tell that they are very loving with each other. I don't want you to loose all hope. If you are going there as a concubine, then I want you to woo the two Kings by your charms. I know you can do this." Namjoon said and ran his hand through Hoseok's hairs.

"I will try to." Hobi said and Namjoon nodded.

"You can't loose hope because you are hope to your Jin-Hyung, to me, to Taehyungie and to many other youth who admire you." Hoseok's eyes watered at the statement.

"Ok, now I have to take my leave. I have to help SeokJin Hyung in the throne room. Many ministers had came to pledge in the hands of the new King." He said and then kissed Hoseok's head. He then took his leave leaving Hoseok behind to get ready for the remaining day.

--------------------

It was now after the lunch time. Hoseok was getting ready to sneak out to his favourite desert shop and order a whole bunch of sweets that would last him for 6 months and then he will make his Hyung deliver him more.

He was putting on his bracelet as a final touch when a knock sounded at the door. Hoseok looked at the door contemplating who would be there. He then let his hands drop by his side with a a sigh and then made his way towards the door.

There on the door stood his two fiancees. The lunch had gone well, he had sat on the left side of Jimin again. He had eaten the meal in complete silence. He had just listened on his father and Jimin talk while they ate. He had successfully avoided the two people but now, he couldn't avoid them. There was no way to avoid them.

"Hey Fiance! We haven't talked to you after our engagement. Yesterday, you have vanished after our breakfast. You didn't come to lunch, to dinner and then to breakfast this morning." Jimin finished saying. The pair had walked inside the room and Hoseok closed the door behind them.

"Weren't you taught that any royal family member can't skip any meal. Especially if there is another royalty present." Yoongi said. Hoseok scoffed and shook his head.

"No. I wasn't. Because I wasn't going to be a King. I was to be married and sent away to another Kingdom. So no. I wasn't taught these little antics." Hoseok said. Jimin and Yoongi looked at each other and then sighed.

"Don't give me that pity look. I knew my future since I was a child. I didn't even knew that Concubines sat at the left side of the King. I didn't even know that this kind of status even existed. I am disgusted of people who do this. I am disgusted by those people and look how fate turned out!" Hoseok said shouting a little. He started laughing when he finished his sentence. Jimin and Yoongi looked at him confused.

"My life always turns out like this. I have to always endure problems at every step I take. I am disgusted of people who are Concubine and who use those people equally. But look! I should've known some type problem would definitely arise. Really, fate is a bitch!" Hoseok said. His eyes stinged with tears. Some tears slipped past the barriers and fell on his cheeks. Hoseok wiped them away and sniffled. He then bowed deeply.

"Your highnesses, I am leaving for the town. Please excuse me." He said and then got up from his bow. He then turned around and opened his bedroom door.

"Please see yourselves out." He said and then exited the room.

In the room, Jimin and Yoongi were star-struck. They were very confused as to why did Hoseok say those things to them. They looked at each other and then at the door whch was now closed as Hoseok had left the room. The pair sat on the bed at the same time.

"Hyung, why did he say those things? Why did he out of nowhere started talking about Concubines?" Jimin said. Yoongi shrugged at him and then looked around the room.

"Wow. The room's so soft." He said. Jimin looked at him and then at the room. The room had pastel purple color to the walls. There was a small Plushie sitting in the bed in the middle. There was a study table which had clouds made on top.

"Yeah. Hyung, we will paint our child's room just like this. Soft and sweet." Jimin sais and Yoongi laughed smacking his head.

"Idiot!" Yoongi said. Jimin quickly tackled him in a hug. The pair fell on the bed due to the impact. They remained like this, Jimin laying on top of Yoongi. His head on his chest as Yoongi brushed his hands through Jimin's hairs. Yoongi took in a deep breath and then exhaled slowly.

"It smells like Hoseok." He said. Jimin put his head up to look at Yoongi.

"I feel complete. What do you think?"

"I don't know. I want to have some time to get romantically comfortable with Hoseok." Jimin said and then sighed.

"Me too. We will start out with being friends and then we will gradually make our way to that point." Yoongi said and Jimin nodded in agreement.

"I think we should communicate more in order to reach that spot."

"Yeah. We should sit along with Hoseok and talk with him. We will tell him to tell us the meaning behind the words he just said."

"Yeah and we will also tell that we will not keep any secrets with each other. If something is too personal to tell, then we will wait for the other to be comfortable enough to tell it." Yoongi nodded. The pair then settled into a comfortable silence. They laid there with each other in their arms while Hoseok's scent enveloped them wholly.
