Getting an invitation from the royal family to bake at the castle is pretty rare. But with Taehyungs father too sick to go the omega has to take his place and gets involved in a lot more than he signed up for. Which includes falling in love with the...
𝐓𝐚𝐞𝐡𝐲𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐬 deep red dress was rippling by the wind as he walked to the palace. His cheeks were a rosy pink color as the wind assaulted him, causing his breath to be ragged.
Before he knew it he was at the palace gates, guards staring him down as he walked up to them. His slim fingers reached out and handed them his letter of invitation from the prince.
"You May come this way um," the guard hesitated.
"Kim Taehyung," The omega finished for him with a soft smile. The guard nodded and led him inside the palace. The castle was made of cobblestone on the inside, a blue rug ran through the halls of the castle to add some color. Big family portraits lined the walls as Taehyung followed the guard to the kitchen. He caught the sight of Prince Jeongguks. Although the male was known to be a bit cold at times he was still quite handsome.
"Follow me," the guard said as he led him through many halls until he reached a door that swung open with a gentle nudge of the guard's white-gloved hand.
The kitchen was grand. Silver appliances littered the area, as granite countertops struck the eye; Tae gasped a bit. His gentle fingers skimmed the edges of his new workspace for the morning, trying to latch onto the feeling of wealth.
"Prince Jeongguk wants pastries done in three hours," The guard said, face still as stone. "Nobody should bother you and if they do please call for me, my name is James, good day."
Taehyung took a deep breath, taking in now what is his workspace. "Alright," he breathed as he patted his dress causing ripples to form. He swiftly grabbed one of the many white aprons hanging on a rack and tied it around his waist.
Having already known what he was gonna bake and started right away. He was making muffins and his famous zeppoles.
He flew around the kitchen like an angel, the white apron fluttering from place to place as the time grew shorter. He looked up to the big clock grasping the wall, it read 9:30.
He plated the pastries on golden trays that reflected the many long lights in the kitchen. He quickly wiped his damp forehead with his forearm, hairs sticking to the skin. His nimble fingers untied the knot of the apron and he gently hung it up again. Placing a golden lid on the tray he heads out of the kitchen.
As soon as he's out of the door he is almost trampled by the maids rushing somewhere. Tae wasn't sure where but he guessed it's where Prince Jeongguk's gathering is happening so he quickly follows them.
They lead to a grand ballroom. He looked down and stared at himself through the reflection in the white quarts floors staring back at him. Mouth agape he quickly scanned the big decorated area until someone blocked his vision.
"Are these the pastries from Mr.Kim?!" A boy asked playfully as he reached for the trays in Taehyungs hands. His deep blue suit with golden embroidery gave him away.
"Ah, yes Prince," Taehyung said quickly, big eyes now staring at the floor as he bowed.
"I'll take these off your hands," Prince Jimin smiled as he grabbed the trays and set them on a random table. He quickly opened the trays, warm vapor pouring out.
"Zeppoles!" Jimin cried out in delight. "Wait where's the chocolate sauce?"
"Oh!" Taehyung remembered, face turning pink from embarrassment. "Let me go get it, I forgot it in the kitchen." He turned and dashed out of the dining room, fresh rosewater scent wafting behind him.
"Sir! You aren't supposed to be here," a Guard said sternly. Tae came to a complete stop. "Those waiting to meet Prince Jeongguk should be waiting in the garden."
"Ah no-"
"Follow me," The guard said and began walking.
"I'm a pastry chef-" Taehyung tried to explain before being cut off again.
"We hired Kim Baekhyung," the guard said looking down at Tae as to say, you definitely aren't him, as he led Taehyung to the garden doors. "You will see Prince Jeon in about 15 minutes."
As Taehyung was going to turn and leave, the flowers of the garden caught his eye. The garden reminded the omega of a forest. Big plants and flowers littered the green space along with big trees to provide shade. Green paths were paved in between the green life, almost calling Taehyung to take a walkthrough.
The omega quickly came back to his senses when he heard high pitch voices to his side. Princesses stood on the patio with chairs and glass tables, chatting to their heart's content with champagne glasses dangling from their dainty hands, golden rings folded across their sun-kissed fingers.
The sweet atmosphere seemed to switch as they noticed the omega wearing a simple red dress standing near them. His scent drifted with the wind, Roses, a hint of cranberry, and freshwater. Taehyungs scent is usually described as refreshing and almost nostalgic when invading the nostrils, like a breath of fresh air.
Their heads snapped towards his silky Carmel skin, blonde hair and blue eyes that contrasted so beautifully, and his willowy figure that filled his red commoner's dress. Simply put, he looked like the lost child of a Greek goddess.
