Jimin immediately grabbed his arm, the moment he faced him, he smashed his lips on his own.

The emperor broke the kiss almost immediately and looked into Jimin's eyes.

"What was that about" He asked calmly.

Jimin bite his lips.

"Tell me" He requested.

"He tried to kiss you" Jimin mumbled.

The emperor stared at him for a minute before laughing out, he found it totally funny, really funny.

"And then you screamed......."

"I can't let him do that" Jimin cut in.

"Why?" The emperor asked.

Jimin shook his head.

"I....have no idea" He muttered.

Emperor Jungkook tucked his hair behind his ears.

"He's my fiancee" He said and Jimin looked at him.

"You don't want him to do it either" Jimin said.

"It's more funny because you're right, so why were you so jealous?" He asked.

"If I was a minute late, his lips would have touched yours" Jimin said.

"But still, you shouldn't react that way next time. For some time, he's my fiancee and....."

"I don't want you to kiss him" Jimin said.

The emperor helped him up and hugged him.

"I told you not to get jealous" he said.

"I can't help it" Jimin shook his head.

"You should know I can't be cold to Duri, I can't do that. It's not the right thing to do, so leave me to handle things my own way, since that's what the royal officials want" The emperor said and Jimin broke the hug.

"If you get married to him, then...what will happen to me? You won't get rid of me right?" He asked.

"You won't be happy if I let you go?" The emperor asked and Jimin looked at him.

"If you let me go....as a slave" he muttered.

The emperor said nothing.

"You can go, I am really going to continue my nap" he said.

"You don't need my help?" Jimin asked.

"I hugged you, that should work for some minutes" Emperor Jungkook replied and Jimin smiled.

He bowed and went out.

Emperor Jungkook let out a sigh and bite his lips.

"What should I do about him?" He asked himself.

PASSAGE WAY**

Borah was already waiting when Bosong showed up.

She bowed slightly, keeping distance between them.

"How can you not bother to look for me? Not even once" Borah said.

Bosong looked up and broke into tears.

"My lady, you didn't tell me your purpose was to kill his Majesty's fiancee" She shook her head.

"Do I have to tell you?"

"I was the one who added the poison to her food, you told me he would react to an allergy, you lied to me. I feel like a murderer" Bosong said.

"Why would you feel that way? He didn't die...."

"He almost did!" Bosong cried.

"So what? Are you going to turn against me now?" Borah frowned.

"You don't feel remorseful my lady" Bosong shook her head.

"Why would I feel remorseful? He didn't die, and besides, I got punished for it" Borah said.

"I'm sorry my lady, but I need to go" Bosong bowed and immediately ran away before Borah could say a word more.

"What is wrong with her?!" Borah scoffed angrily before walking away.

Yoongi and Yoonie came out of their hideout and exchanged glances.

"She's a murderer" Yoongi muttered unbelievably.

"I think Bosong just discovered the type of person her lady is" Yoonie said and Yoongi nodded.

"I need to tell my master" He muttered and Yoonie laughed.

DURI'S SUITE**

Duri was still on his bed, he haven't moved ever since he came in after what happened earlier in the emperor's chamber.

He wiped off his tears and sniffed in.

"Young master, his majesty is here!" He heard from outside and he immediately faced the other side.

A minute later, the emperor walked in.

"Duri?" He called.

"I don't want to talk to you" Duri muttered.

Emperor Jungkook could hear the tears in his voice.

"Did you...cry?" He asked.

"No I didn't" Duri muttered.

"Then, I guess I should go since you don't want to......" Duri immediately faced him.

"You're going to meet your slave boy again" He said.

"I told you not to touch him, you can't hurt him" The emperor said.

"He shouted at me! What was I supposed to do? Don't I deserve some respect from him? I do" Duri said hurtfully.

"He won't do that again" The emperor said.

"I bet you didn't even scold him, your majesty, you like him right?" Duri asked.

"I.... "

"I don't care if you do" Duri cut in immediately and got down from the bed, he hugged him.

"I'm going to make you like me also, no matter what" He muttered.

The emperor said nothing, the image of Jimin's jealous face came to his head and he didn't know when he giggled.

Duri thinking he did that because of him, hugged him even more tighter.

"I've really fallen for you....your majesty" He mumbled.

NIGHT, ROYAL CHAMBER**

Yongbok and Jimin stood in front of the emperor after Hyunjin asked for permission to go out of the palace.

"But, why tonight? Why not during the day?" He asked.

"Your majesty, it's always fun walking through the market in a night, like this" Yongbok said.

"Be careful" The emperor said and Yongbok's eyes widened.

"Is that a yes?" He asked.

Emperor Jungkook nodded.

"Yessss!!!!" Yongbok screamed.

The emperor looked at Jimin and Yongbok saw that.

"Don't worry hyung, I won't let anyone guy stare at him twice, trust me. Let's go Jimin" He dragged Jimin out immediately.

The emperor sighed out.

"Don't get hurt" He mumbled.

IN THE DARKEST WOODS**

A covered up land broke and pulled apart, a strong wind started blowing all through the woods, the inner ground came up and in the darkest part, two red eyes opened all of a sudden.

It was a creature, a demon. He stood up and growled loudly, sending off all the animals in the wild.

After the loud growl, his body became normal, like a human and his red eyes changed too. His white hair turned black, he became a complete human, a good looking man.

He smiled satanically and started walking, one step after the other, out of the woods in his all black robe. His long hair following the rhythm of the wind. 

Eoduun showed up that instance.

"You're awake....I can help you with your revenge, you just have to be with me" He laughed out loudly.

The all black demon opened his mouth, sending fire straight at him.

"Ouuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!" Eoduun's scream was heard from far away in the woods.

The demon vanished also.

MARKET SQUARE**

Yongbok and Jimin held hands in the front, checking out almost everything as they walked.

Namjoon and Hyunjin were behind them.

"I'm tired" Hyunjin groaned.

"Blink away from them and receive your death accordingly" Namjoon muttered, his eyes not leaving both men.

"Oh please, don't be so harsh" Hyunjin said.

Namjoon ignored him, his eyes fell on a young man approaching, he was looking so lost and serious at the same time.

He was looking all around the market like it's his first time.

Namjoon looked at Yongbok and Jimin who just stopped in front of a fishcake seller.

"Please give us five sticks, it looks so delicious" Yongbok clapped.

"One is enough for me" Jimin muttered.

"You wouldn't dare" Yongbok said and Jimin chuckled.

"Just kidding, I'm going to eat a lot, really" He said.

They started with the five sticks, Jimin ate two and Yongbok finished three also.

"Wow, give us six more" Yongbok said.

"More more" Jimin said excitedly.

"Let's buy matching bracelets after this" he said and Jimin nodded.

All of a sudden someone bumped into him and he almost fell.

Namjoon rushed to him but the person already caught Jimin by the waist.

Jimin let out a gasp and looked up into his eyes.

He saw his red eyes and even the way it sounded, he swallowed hard.

The person smiled at him.

Namjoon pulled Jimin to his side.

"Watch where you're going please" he said, holding Jimin tightly.

Jimin was lost in the man's eyes, he was also staring at him deeply.

The man let out one final smile before walking away.

Jimin swallowed hard.

"It's....my Lord's eyes..the same" He thought, still staring at his back.

"Jimin are you okay?" Yongbok asked.

Jimin nodded gently.

"Let's leave, I'm full" He muttered.

"Oh, okay" Yongbok smiled.

They started walking again and Hyunjin followed.

Namjoon turned back again to look at the strange man, but he was gone.

He went after Jimin and Yongbok.

NEXT DAY, ROYAL CHAMBER**

Borah was crying her eyes out, on her knees in front of the emperor.

"Please forgive me just this once! Please"

"I never said I won't forgive you Borah, don't act too forward" The emperor said and Borah shook her head.

"It's too much, I can't hold it anymore. Everything was taken away from me" She cried.

The emperor grabbed her hand and pulled her up, he wiped her tears gently.

"If you spend another minute here........You might have to start preparing your leave Borah" He said and Borah's eyes widened.

"Your majesty...."

"Ten seconds left" The emperor mumbled.

Borah ran out instantly without thinking twice.

**

Jimin was walking with Yoongi and Yoonie, showing them his bracelet he got with Yongbok.

He faced them.

"What do you think?" He asked.

"It's so beautiful, I love the color" Yoonie said.

"I'm so sad young master, you didn't get for me" Yoongi pouted.

"I'm sorry, the prince bought them not me" Jimin said.

He turned back again but ended up bumping into someone.

"What was that?!!!!!" Borah screamed out.

"I'm so sorry!!" Jimin immediately bowed.

"Sorry?! Sorry for what exactly?!" Borah yelled.

Yoonie and Yoongi exchanged glances.

Some maids stopped immediately, hearing Borah's scream.

"I'm...sorry. It wasn't intentional" Jimin mumbled.

"It wasn't intentional?!!" Borah screamed and without thinking, she slapped Jimin in the face.

Jimin glared at her.

"I apologized" He said.

"So what?! How dare you look at me like that?........." She couldn't finish her statement when Jimin landed a heavy slap on her face.

It sounded so loud and everyone gasped. 

Borah's eyes widened...she wasn't expecting it.
