The brunette was up even before the rooster crowed and the Sun was still sleeping. The dawn was drowsy and quiet, embracing the kingdom as they snored away under their duvets. He should be exhausted from the short slumber or be annoyed at the day as if it was Monday yet Jimin found himself sitting at the edge of the bed where a girl had made that side of her bed hers, occupying it like she owned it but he wasn't bothered by it one bit.

In all honesty, Jimin was quite welcoming towards her presence in his big and empty bed from the first day she came in. He remembered volunteering to have the girl near him as much as possible to avoid chaos upon the ancient built castle as told by Namjoon. Even his cousin was surprised to see the older male nonchalantly agreeing to keep the General by his side though no one actually told him to have her sleep beside him but here Jimin found himself making it a staple for her to recharge in his bed.

Its really cliché and cheesy but Jimin found himself rather liking his warmed up bed instead of waking every morning to a cold sheet. The lonely king tried calling escort services but unfortunately he accidentally killed one of the women when his power got out of control when he reached his climax, and burnt her skin with his overheated body as it glowed with silver veins under his eyes and eyes flashed bright silver too. It wasn't the first time he hurt the escort women with his thrilling power so Jimin decided to leave his pleasure to his hands instead which he also have been MIA on ever since he got crowned and duties started to pile up.

However, the General's presence in his bed was far too different from the escorts. The way she occupied a small spot of the bed, not even touching his duvet or making the bed dipped, yet he still could feel her. Maybe it was because of their linked powers or the way their powers bonded but the king still found her mere sleeping figure a sight to stare at.

Which was what he is doing right now as his eyes glued down on the peacefully sleeping girl who was also the same girl who slammed a maid onto the dining table and swung her double sided sword in front of his officials. His lips tugged up into a small smirk as he recalled the stunned faces of those officials as they were trying to hold back their violent coughs after getting choked. She did him proud. She always does and she always will even though it's had only been days since her submission but Jimin already foreseen the greatness in this girl. But that's the thing. He realized he was starting to see something else other than greatness in her and it's dangerously alluring.

At that thought, Jimin abruptly retracted his hand from her which he didn't notice was gently stroking her cheek with the back of it. He tore his eyes away from her, closing them as he heavily sighed. He was supposed to wake her up and tell her his plan but then lost his concentration the minute he sat down beside her. He had initially sent the girl to bed right after their very indulging moment back in the lab where her answer to his question regarding her limit had sent a flood of thoughts into his head.

"....only if it pleases you...."

Her soft and vulnerable echoed in his head, making him lose his mind as he pressed the heels of his palms against his temples. Jimin wasn't sure how to take her answer in without boosting his strong urge to voice out a command that will sure rock their worlds. He remembered how they stayed in pin drop silence after her answer before he finally hummed and pulled away, ending their night when he brought her to his bedroom but told her to sleep while he get some other things done which of course the General offered her protection with that stern and stone voice of her, only making him missed their little lab session even more.

Jimin used his command on her and sent her to bed, stating that she had a long day of evaluation up ahead and a good night rest is essential but the truth was that he needed to be away from her to cool off. The girl obeyed immediately and went to bed, leaving the king outside with his small regret of sending her away as a tiny part of him was demanding her to stay with him.
