The first step to confrontation

°°°

"How about I'll bring you inside the palace by sneaking you in? You're gonna disguise yourselves and bring down the guards. Without my help for that of course, I have to stay hidden. Because when the royal court finds out I've been interfering with your inner political scandals, there will be war between our kingdoms and I'm sure you won't want that", Jimin said with crossed arms behind his back.

Suga nodded in agreement by the prince's words, because he was already thankful enough for the help Jimin was offering him and also for the support Taehyung has given him. Taehyung. Not a day has passed without Suga thinking about the lovely male, the beautiful hours spend together and Suga couldn't wait to embrace Taehyung in his arms again, hold him close and never let him go.

Maybe Seokjin was right that Suga was falling for the gorgeous prince. And it was Suga's priority to free the lovely male from his insane brother, once and for all.

"Did you pick the men out that are going to accompany us?", Jimin asked Suga who hummed in response, calling out his most trusted men that were going to join them in the palace, his most skilled fighters and members of his inner circle. 

"I did, these will come with us, I trust them with my life", Suga gestured towards the group of men behind him which caused Jimin to look at them as well. His dark eyes met Jungkook's wide deer eyes and he couldn't help but to wink at the boy. "One last thing", Jimin said, not taking his eyes off of Jungkook. 

"And what would that be?", Suga asked the prince before following his stare and his brows skyrocketed. On Jimin's face formed a sly smile. "I want Jungkookie", Jimin purred out, the addressed boy squeaking and hiding behind Seokjin's broad back who turned furious but Suga silenced him.

"No", he said simply which caused Jimin to whip his head towards him, narrowing his eyes slightly at him. "I'm not like your dear twin brother, I won't harm the one I desire. All I'm asking for, is to court this beauty. It's Jungkook's decision anyways", Jimin said boldly, not caring that others heard his shameless request while Jin was cursing in Chinese.

"This will not happen, he is innocent-!", Seokjin started but a shy bunny peaked out from behind his shoulder, looking towards the lion staring hungrily at him.

"H-Hyung, we still need his help", Jungkook whispered towards the upset elder, eyes meeting with Jimin's who was standing next to Suga with crossed arms.

"O-okay", Jungkook whispered shakily, shyly walking from behind Seokjin and Jimin growled pleased when the shy bunny walked closer to him. Just when Jimin wanted to wrap his arm around Jungkook's small waist, the other jumped back. 

"But no touching, pervert!", Jungkook called out with the most cutest pout which made Jimin laugh cheekily. He lifted his hands in surrender when he caught Suga's glare. "Wouldn't dream of it, pretty bunny. I still need my hands to rule a kingdom", Jimin grinned, utterly pleased with himself.

Suga coughed. "You try hurting him and I'll fuck you up, no matter if you're a prince or not, Heir of Paekche", he lowly warned Jimin who didn't seem fazed at all by this. He instead fondly looked at Jungkook. 

"I would not once think of hurting him. I'm not Min Yoongi."


°°°

Jimin returned to the palace, in his entourage Suga and the rest of the disguised rebels. It was surprisingly easy to sneak them inside the palace, after Jimin kind of made a dramatic entrance once the knights spotted the disappeared prince and started asking questions. Jimin was very much irritated, snarling at them to not ask questions.

He told them the lie he has practiced with Suga, smoothly delivering the story they prepared. Jimin has received a message of his father, telling him that he was going to send him more servants and Jimin has been gone to welcome his new entourage before turning back to the palace.

Since the guards couldn't question the foreign prince without disrespecting him, they had to take the explanation on why the Paekche prince was gone for more than a day and Jimin was allowed entrance. All of them wore masks covering their faces, Jimin carelessly explaining it was because of the street dust, then even daringly cursing at the guards for causing him trouble.

They ended up apologizing while Jimin was having the fun of his life toying with them, laughing inwardly before turning serious again, ordering the knights to guard him back inside and they hurried to follow the command.

It was now Jimin's job to keep them busy so they wouldn't notice some of his entourage sneaking away, to take down the patrolling knights and take over the palace. When Suga was given the signal by Seokjin that it was time to turn into action, Jungkook sneakingly moved away, walking behind the two guards and knocking them out faster than they could react.

"Good boy", Jimin grinned, proud of his bunny who glared at him but couldn't help but to blush by the compliment, mewling surprised when he was grabbed by Jimin and a kiss was delivered to his cheek. "Such impressive muscles, such a strong fighter yet you're a cute bunny for me, no? Can't wait to have you, pretty", Jimin whispered, just for Jungkook's ears to hear.

Jungkook gasped when he felt a sting on his ass, quickly moving away from Jimin and this time, the prince let him.

"Let's go and end this, shall we?", Jimin asked, composed as always while Jungkook was a flushed mess and quickly walked back to Jin's side who looked worried at him. Suga stepped forward, out of the depth of the group so he was hidden from any suspicious eyes, determined look on his face.

This was the moment he has been waiting for, the villagers already were on his side and now, it was time to take his rightful place. Suga now wasn't the abandoned twin anymore, nor the rebel leader he has been forced to become.

No, he now wore the aura of a king.

Once all the guards were knocked out and the rest of the group returned back again, they stormed inside the throne hall, the doors roughly crashing again the walls which caused the aristocrats to look up, all being called up to the throne hall by the king for an urgent meeting, surprised and irritated over the sudden interruption.

"Prince Jimin, you've returned back-", Kim Namjoon called out for Jimin, standing close to the king's throne but Jimin didn't really spare him a glance, eyes fixed on the Scar King sitting so mightily on his tribune.

On his falsely claimed throne, with Taehyung on his lap.
