Yoongi walked out of King Ye Jun's study, his shoulders falling as he rubbed the back of his neck, slightly dishevelled.

He had been happy.

Happy would be an understatement.

He hadn't seen Ye Jun this positively ecstatic since-

Well, since Lyrian had fallen at the hands of Avar.

Yoongi still remembers that night, Yoongi twelve, Yong Saeng fifteen as Ye Jun hummed to himself and poured out three glasses of whiskey in the parlour.

He was humming as Yoongi had walked out the door today too.

Yoongi stood still for a few beats.

He thinks he's winning. He's getting what he wants. He's getting-

Yoongi shook his head, fishing out his phone from his pocket.

....




"What do you mean, investigate-" Namjoon looked around the room once again, lowering his voice to a whisper, "investigate the king?"

Yoongi rubbed his temples as he picked up the glass of water, popping a pill in his mouth before downing the glass, "You heard that right. We need to find concrete evidence that Korea was involved in the plot. Call for Dr Kim as soon as possible and interrogate him. He's the only proper lead we have as of now, but I'm pretty sure we'll find more. This couldn't have been that easy..."

"Why are you setting yourself up?"

"The king, this country, and I, are three separate entities-"

"Hyung. You know I have pledged allegiance to the Crown, right?"

Yoongi stiffened, Looking over Namjoon, reconsidering his words


"YOU SHOULD LOOK AT YOUR FACE RIGHT NOW!" Namjoon bent over his knee and clutched his stomach, his entire body shaking as Yoongi heaved a sigh of relief, picking up a cushion from the chair next to him, hurtling it at Namjoon, who deflected the projectile with his arm

"I will kill you,"

"Oh hyung, you were as white as a sheet! Ah! I should've set up a hidden camera or two," Namjoon giggled, rubbing his eyes on his sleeve as he tried to steady his breathing

"I will actually have your head, no joke."

"Ahhh I'm so terrified! No, but anyway, okay, so how do you want this to be done? Do you want Dr Kim to," Namjoon cracked his knuckles, "Spill all his secrets?"

Yoongi rolled his eyes, reaching for the whiskey decanter on his side table, "Why have I not disowned you yet, hmm?"

Namjoon stood up and held the bottle down, "Alcohol isn't going to help your headache. Well, it's not going to help anything right now," Namjoon took Yoongi's hand off the crystal and turned it over in his hand, the rose gold band gleaming on the latter's pale skin, the small diamonds set across its centre sparkling in the light, "You're actually betrothed, huh?" he asked, lifting a brow ever so slightly, a smirk curving his lips

Yoongi blushed a deep pink as he slowly pulled his hand away, "And what if I am?"

"Ah hyung, look at you all shy at the mere mention of being married. I thought it would take away longer than this! At least, even though everything seems to be going to shit, you have her now, hmm?" Namjoon said with a soft smile
