"This isn't right hyung! What if something dangerous happens?!",Namjoon whisper-yelled as Seokjin wrapped a soft cloth around his own face;covering it upto his nose.

"Why are you always so scared about everything Joon? I thought you're the most skilled beta of our kingdom!",Yoongi said in his usual cold voice.

The younger beta scoffed at his comment.

"I'm not scared Yoongi hyung... I'm concerned.I just want the both of you to be safe,that's it!"

Seokjin finally looked at Namjoon.

"Don't you think I have the right to go for adventures too?",Seokjin asked through his veil.

Namjoon sighed.

"Its alright to have adventures hyung... But,I don't think its safe for you to go to the town all alone..."

Seokjin rolled his eyes.

"I'm not alone ! You two are coming with me,right?"

"But.. Hyu-"

Seokjin cut Namjoon off.

"Stop worrying too much Joon,its going to be alright.Have some faith in me,will you?"

Namjoon sighed in defeat.

It has always been like this.No matter how much Namjoon warns him,Seokjin always does what his heart tells him to do.Once he decides to do something,nobody can stop him from doing that.

"So...are the horses ready?",Seokjin asked and tilted his head.

His eyes glinted in excitement as Namjoon nodded reluctantly.

---------------------

Seokjin beamed at the jewelry shop and immediately grabbed Yoongi's hand,dragging him with himself.

Namjoon shook his head but followed them anyways.

They had reached the town and rested their horses at a local stable so that they can explore the market freely.

"This one is so gorgeous!",Seokjin exclaimed as he took a silver bracelet in his hand.

Yoongi nodded with a slight smile on his face.The bracelet was something that perfectly suits Seokjin's taste.

It was simple yet sleek;able to catch anyone's attention by its unique interlocking pattern.

"I'll buy it.",Jin declared and gestured Yoongi to pay for it.

As Yoongi proceeded towards the shop owner, Seokjin carefully wore the bracelet on his hand.

He looked at Namjoon with the corner of his eyes wrinkling and Namjoon could tell that he was smiling really wide under his veil.

"Isn't it beautiful?!",Seokjin asked;his voice full of wonder.

Namjoon couldn't help but show his dimpled smile to their beloved hyung.Their elder prince is a perfect blend of innocence and maturity;only if that makes sense.

"Hyung~ There's a tavern over there!",Yoongi suddenly joined them and exclaimed while pointing towards a two-storeyed house.

Namjoon's eyebrows furrowed immediately.He was not at all liking the way both of his hyungs were looking at the tavern.

"Yoongi-hyung! Don't tempt him please! Its not right for him to...to...you know..",Namjoon couldn't say anymore as he knew Seokjin wouldn't like it.

"Enter a tavern because I'm an Omega...I know.But trust me,nobody is going to learn my identity.Please Joon...I've always wanted to enter a tavern!",Seokjin pleaded with his doe eyes.

"And besides that....",Yoongi added with a smirk.

"I've always wanted to drink a mug of beer freshly served at a tavern!",he semi yelled and squeezed Seokjin's hand in excitement; something that he rarely does infront of anyone.

Namjoon could sense the excitement of his hyungs.

"Fine...but we need to be very careful.. And I mean,very careful; alright?",he stated and the both of them nodded like obedient kids.

----------------

"I can't believe this!",Seokjin squealed quietly as Yoongi took a sip from the mug of beer.

Yoongi smirked and brought the mug infront of Seokjin's face.

"You should have some too...",he said.

Namjoon's head shot up and Seokjin giggled.

"No Yoongi...You know that I'm not a decent drinker.You enjoy~",he said and gestured Yoongi with his hand to carry on.

He got up from the stool he was sitting on and Namjoon instantly stood up too.

"Joon! Don't make things obvious.Everyone would suspect something if you keep being glued with me! You stay here with Yoongi.I'll just go to the corner to see those paintings and be right back,I promise.",he whispered and made Namjoon sit on his stool once again.

He walked to the corner and started admiring some beautiful paintings on the wall.

As he was busy staring at the paintings,a soft hand grabbed his wrist,startling him to the core.

He turned around abruptly only to find a little girl with tears in her eyes.She was tugging his hand with her right hand while wiping her tears with the left one.

Seokjin frowned.He crouched down infront of the girl,holding and rubbing her hand with his own.He could feel that she was an omega and her pheromones were telling him that she was distressed for some reason.

"What is it? Why are you crying?!",Seokjin asked softly.

"A...a...man h-hurted m-my E-eomonie.She i-is c-crying s-so much.",she hiccupped.

Seokjin got up and took her hand firmly into his own grip.

"Where is your Eomonie?Take me to her..."

--------------------

'So the first floor belongs to these omegas...',Seokjin thought as he walked through a long corridor with the little girl.

The first floor was filled with Omegas' scent.He could smell a number of Alphas' scent infront of some closed doors too.

Seokjin felt a little tensed.It was clear that the omegas who lived there,worked as the tavern's prostitutes.

He should've thought before coming here.Atleast he should've brought Namjoon with him.

As the girl stopped infront of a door and pushed it softly,the door became wide open,revealing a scarred and bruised woman and a man grabbing the former's hair.

Seokjin flinched at the sight.

The woman inside the room pleaded weakly,-

"Jiane! Why are you here?! Go...go I said..go!"

Seokjin took too much time to process everything as the man threw the already wrecked woman on the floor and strode towards him.

Before Seokjin could do anything,the man grabbed his neck and pushed him towards the wall behind him.

Seokjin scratched the man's hand,hit him on the chest with his fists but the man didn't budge a bit.He was a quite strong alpha,Seokjin figured.

As the alpha was just about to remove the veil from Seokjin's face,a loud thud was heard in the corridor and the grip on his neck loosened in a second.

Seokjin rubbed his neck a little,still panting because of the sudden attack and its shock before looking straight at his savior.

His heart thumped loudly as the figure infront of him let the iron rod fall from his grip and walked up to him.

He took the edge of Seokjin's veil in between his thumb and index finger and gently pulled it down from Seokjin's face.

"You shouldn't be here my Prince.",Seokjin's savior said in his awfully familiar deep voice.

-------------

"You should've been more careful.This is not why my Queen has made you elder prince's personal guard! You're supposed to protect him!",Taehyung semi yelled at Namjoon.

"Don't yell at him!",Seokjin complained.

"It wasn't his fault. I was the one who insisted to come here. I forced him;both of them.",he stated firmly.

Taehyung sighed frustratingly.

"I can see that, my Prince. But as I said before...You shouldn't be here. You should have been more responsible but since I don't have the right to say anything to your Highness-"

"You too shouldn't be here in the prostitutes' quarter,Duke Taehyung-nim.",Namjoon and Yoongi's eyes widened as Seokjin cut Taehyung off.

Taehyung scoffed.

"Ask your new little friend. I come here everyday to check on her and her mother. I'm trying to rescue them from this hell. Its just that... this area doesn't belong to my dukedom. Otherwise I could've helped them easily.", he said in a curt voice.

"You should talk to Eomonie then... She will definitely listen to you if you suggest her something regarding Jiane and her mother!", Seokjin exclaimed? happy to find a solution for the poor little girl.

Taehyung stared at him for a second before glancing at Namjoon and Yoongi.

"I need to talk to my Prince...in private.",he said and both the betas looked at Seokjin for permission.

Seokjin thought about the situation for a moment but nodded at the end.

As the two of them were left alone, Seokjin lifted his eyebrows.

"What is it?", he asked.

"I thought about your suggestion....", Taehyung answered without looking at him.

"Its not a bad idea to be honest. I should've thought about it before.But....I have a condition.",Seokjin's eyes squinted as he continued.

"You've a condition to help a helpless family?!", Seokjin spat.

Taehyung smiled.

"I'm not as bad as you think,my Prince...",he said.

"Come to the point.", Seokjin said impatiently.

"Well...Since I've to hide the fact from my Queen that I've found our elder prince in a tavern,you have to give me something in return.",Taehyung answered;now finally looking straight at Seokjin's eyes.

Seokjin's inner wolf howled at the way Taehyung looked at him.

He gulped.

"W-what do you w-want.", he stuttered.

Again!

He hates it!

He hates the way this alpha can intimidate him.

Taehyung kept his smile intact and diverted his gaze towards Seokjin's left wrist.

"That.....", he said while tilting his head forward.

Seokjin looked at his wrist and his eyes widened in confusion.

'The.....bracelet?'
