Vampire Brothers : Fears & Tears

Chapter 14

Third Person POV

The palace was a little busy at the moment. Everyone was preparing for the ball that was to take place during the weekend which is in three days. And on the other hand, S.Coups and the others were getting ready, waiting for the arrival of people from Hwayangyeonhwa. After sending the invitation letter to the soon-to-be king, Kim Namjoon, they received a reply a week after that, informing them that all seven brothers will attend the ball and will be there for the meeting with the ruler from Odemore.

Haneul was helping with the cooking and the decoration. Gaeul and Bomi were helping out as well while Jaewoo was left with the palace's most trusted servant.

Haneul walked into the King's room after receiving a 'come in' from inside. Unluckily, Seunggyo wasn't feeling well. And she was there to deliver a tea.

She noticed that Eun Hui was there as well and on the bedside table, there's a tea which Haneul believed, served by Eun Hui.

Haneul coldly looked at Eun Hui, "You, leave this room." "N-no." Seunggyo turned to Eun Hui. "You are not going to say no Seunggyo. You need to rest!" Haneul was clearly worried about the King. "Leave!" Haneul slightly raised her voice at Eun Hui. She bowed at Haneul before she walked out from the room.

"I'm taking this away. You should drink this tea instead. It has no sugar in it." Haneul replaced the tea Eun Hui served with the one she brought. The tea was mixed with a medicine. Since Seunggyo really hates taking med, she figures he wouldn't notice it if she mixed it in his tea.

"N-No. I only drink Eun Hui's tea."

"Don't be stubborn, Seunggyo! King or not, you are my brother and I'm responsible for your health! Now stop being a kid and drink this!" Haneul said.

Seunggyo weakly sat. "What do you have against Eun Hui, Haneul?" "I just don't trust her."

"Well you should stop that. She's kind." Seunggyo took a sip of the tea. "Hmm? This tea taste weird? Did you put something in it? Med?" he asked.

Haneul rolled her eyes, "You're imagining things. You're not feeling well. Your taste bud must be playing games with you. Must be why the tea tastes weird."

"Hmm okay." He continued to drink the tea,

Haneul looked at Eun Hui's tea. She took a sniff at it. *Hmm? Smells weird.*

After walking out from the room, Eun Hui straight away went to the kitchen.

"You delivered the tea to his highness?" one of the chef asked and Eun Hui nodded with a smile. "I did. But I don't think he's going to drink that. Miss Haneul was with him and I noticed she had another drink with her." She looked at little sad.

"Ah, Miss Haneul. She probably just giving him some medicine since His Highness is not feeling well." The chef smiled. "Don't worry. Your herbs tea helps him. Just maybe today you should let Miss Haneul look after His Highness. It's her brother in-law after all."

"Hmm, you're right. I should go and help the others outside. See you around." Eun Hui smiled at the chef before she walked out from the kitchen.

She clenched her fist, *Haneul...you shall never mess with my plan anymore in the future!*

That evening, S.Coups and Mingyu were waiting at the border. From a distance, they could see a team of horses.

"That must be them." S.Coups turned to the shadow eagle that was on his horse. "Tell the others that they're here. We're taking them to the palace right away." S.Coups informed. And soon the shadow eagle flew into the open sky and flew towards the palace.

"You're ready, Mingyu?"

"Yes, hyung. Let's greet them." Mingyu agreed before he got onto his horse. They both rode their horse to the group of horses.

"Kim Mingyu ssi."

Mingyu nodded, "Nice to have you here, Prince Kim Namjoon."

Namjoon then looked at S.Coups. "I believe you are not the King?" S.Coups nodded, "Choi Seungcheol. Unfortunately the King is not feeling well today but don't worry. He will join us for the meeting tonight." S.Coups explained to them.

"Let's have our introduction once we arrived at the palace. The others are waiting for your arrival." S.Coups said and Namjoon just nodded. S.Coups led the way and they followed after him. Jungkook was the last one to trail behind. His eyes met with Mingyu, "Hey, pillar guy." "Nice to see you again, coconut head." Mingyu smirked.

"Watch it! I don't have coconut hair anymore! So stop calling me that." Jungkook raised his voice. "Namjoon hyung, Jungkook is at it again." Jimin's voice was heard out loud. "Let him be Jimin. He just miss him." Seokjin said and Jungkook heard it.

"Miss him? Hell no!" Jungkook scoffed before he quickly went to catch up with his brothers. Mingyu chuckled at the male's reaction.
