Chapter 60 : Heavy Heart

°•°•°◇°•°•°

Jongin swallowed as he glanced into the empty dungeon, seeing dirt and dried blood on the ground with an empty expression while his guards had kept quiet behind him.

,, how could you let this happen ?"

Jongdae stepped forward with a lowered glance to stand besides him as he folded his hands tiredly.
,, I'm sorry ..
I tried everything I could "

The prince closed his eyes as dizziness swept over him while he tried to clear his head. He was exhausted still even though he had woken up from what seemed to be a long enough sleep.
He was mad, confused and frustrated. Jongin couldnt understand how it all went down so fast, the people around him say it's been a while, everyone thought he was dead but to jongin it seemed like it all had happen within houres.

One thing He remembers laying in kyungsoos arms as he cried to him the next thing he knows he wakes up in a cave completely unharmed.
Jot even a single scratch on him but the sickening feeling in his stomach stayed.

And it just got worse when he heard what had happened to kyungsoo while he was gone. What had happened with everyone else while he was gone.

,, we thought you were dead ... " the servant placed a hand onto his shoulder causing him to open his eyes again only to shrugg his hand slowly off. ,, dont "
,, jongin-"
,, he got tortured while I was napping in some old stupid cave " he turned to look at jongdae again with a slight glare as he had felt mad that his servant hadnt protected kyungsoo. Tho he knew it wasnt his fault as he knew that he had probably tried everything he could in his position.

But At the moment jongin was just angry and he couldnt care less who was to rightfully blame.

,, I just .. " he started again rubbing over his face as he finally turned away ,, sattle my horse, I need to find him " his feet started walking up the stairs to exit the dungeons when someone suddenly stopped him by blocking his way.

,, I dont think so "
Jongin looked up to see his father's angered yet frustrated and exhausted expression.
,, you arent going anyway, not now.. not in this state "

,, I dont expect you of all people to understand me "
He snapped back his voice filled with anger and it made his father frown hard at his disrespect wanting to slap him for it but managing to not as he considered just 2 days ago he believed he had lost him for good.
,, escort him back to his chamber"

,, no ! " jongin fought the guard off ,, I need to ride out-
,, you will NOT !" a moment of silence followed when other servants had now slightly glanced at them as the guards hesitated from the kings loud voice, which made him inhale to calm himself down again and return to his normal tone ,, you've been missing for months. You've just returned, you're in no condition we dont even know what exactly had happened. You. Will. Not. Leave "

With that the king turned around again as his guards moved to hold onto jongin arms but he struggled against them harshly, pushing them aside once more as he glared at his father who now turned to him again shocked but also fed up.
,, I said no ! I'm going to take my horse and ride.. " a wave of fatigue overcome him when his sight had turned black for merely a second
,, rid-" his command was cut off as a stinging pain added to his dizziness hit his stomach and he collapsed to his knees unable to hold himself up.
