~ Jungkook's POV ~

Shijin cleared her throat before changing the topic. " It's almost dawn, we should head to the 5 path." She says, her voice comes out lower than it should. I look at her eyes and she quickly looked away, avoiding the eye contact.

I give her a simple nod. This time she leads the way and I follow her quietly. Going back to that intimate scene again, I got lost in lust, okay.I tried to manipulate her, okay. But I didn't work on her?! Not okay!

Why? My powers are uncertain on her, sometimes they work and the other time they don't! And it's just with her!

Woah. Whatsoever, I'll figure out soon. But first I gotta find Holy Cath.

She walked straight, not making a noise or trying to initiate any conversation. Fuck! Is she suspicious of me?! No no no. This can't happen, I've worked for it since day 1 !

I take a long breath and then exhaled, suppressing the outbursting rage and oaths to take my dear revenge of the rejection. " Baby...?" I call out for her in the smallest voice that I could make. She halted but didn't look back. I quickly step further and now standing just behind her.

I firmly wrap my hands around her from the back and rest my head on her shoulder. " Are you....mad at me?" I questioned in a cute voice. Dang, I can't be this cringey.

But damnit, why do I like doing this? Like, really, it's cheesy and all but still, I low-key like it when she pampers me.

" I'm sorry about earlier, you know I lose all my shits when it's the heat, Don't you? Desires and temptations take over me and I can't really control " I pout sadly, tugging my lower lip out.

Control my foot, I fucking control everything. But hey! A part of it is true though. I can't control when I'm in bed but offcourse I can when I'm not.

She sighed and then finally placed a hand on my right cheek, I internally jolted up and it felt like stomach flipped due to the warm touch. Dang! what was that man? My body is reacting way too much when I'm around her, and that mothersucking blush. Fuck it!

" It's okay bunno. Don't worry, I understand you." She said giving me an assuring smile and then her palm was pulled away from my side profile and she instead PiNcHeD my cheek. Blood rushed towards towards my cheeks and I'm sure she might've felt them heating up. It feels nice when someone says ' I understand you'

Fuck you blush! I hate you!

I smiled widely and mumbled a thank you in her crook. I locked my hands more tightly around her, crushing her more into my arms, whilst inhaling her scent. Her body is so warm, hugging feels actually nice. I've never hugged someone before. We stayed in each other's warmth for a while before breaking the hug.

* 2 hours later *

" I'm not tired but we nearly have walked too much deeper into the forest and yet I see no signs. I guess we're on the wrong path." I suggested marching beside shijin. She turned her face to look at me." Patience, mini fluff ball." She sang out.

I'll pretend, that I just heard, fluff.Ball? Hell no. Look at my giant body first. People drool over my abs, uncountable deities have licked them like needy cats. Kids could tie swings on my muscular arms and this bish calls me mini. Never.

As we walk further, the colour of the vegetation started changing." Look, these groves are getting denser and their colour is darkening. That means we're close!" She exclaimed and her face lit up in victory. I nod, grinning back.

So, she was right about that sixth sense thingy.

She suddenly looks at her phone to check the time. " Bunno, it's 5'o clock. Look around and tell me if you see and animals around." She instructed turning me to the left and she turned to the right. I obeyed without questioning her sudden mood.

I go a bit ahead. Oh yeah. A deer.I rushed back to her. " I saw a deer there. " I said, still pondering over as to why she'd been asking for animals all of a sudden.

So dumb.

" Okay, don't make noise and follow me quick. We're gonna stalk the deer, it's dawn and it might be going to drink water." Oh.

Not sooo dumb.

I crouched down follow her lead, and we hid behind the trunk of a large oak tree. We take slow sitting steps and followed the deer.

Soon some bushes appeared to be  a barrier infront of us. I signalled shijin to get up along with me so we can jump over the bush to cross it. The deer is gone. We look for it but when I turned my head to right to look for the deer.

But rather , I saw something more important. " Shijin ! " I squealed continuously tapping her shoulder. " Look, river!!!" I almost yelled with a smile spreading across my face." Damn! Finally!!"

I gushed out from the bushes, towards the bank of the water body.She followed. I looked around and she stood beside me with her hands resting on her hips as she scanned the area. " Oh my God. This is beautiful." Her lips curled up in a pretty smile and her almond eyes shone, capturing the view.

" You wanna rest? Or shall we continue with the mission?" I questioned turning my face to her side profile. Breathtaking damn. Woman has such a sexy jawline. My eyes got stuck. And my stomach churned. I shake away the unknown and stupid emotions, quickly.

But I won't deny the fact that she's quite beautiful.....a lot actually. Isn't it why I want her to be one of my pretty toys ?

" Nope. I'm cool. Let's get over it quickly" She said shaking her head. I scrunched my nose before smiling back and nodding.

We walk towards the right alongside the river bank. It was just a few minutes and I started recognising the area. Yes, this is where I crashed!

" Babe, I guess this is the area, holy cath might be around here in the radius of some meters." I assert and she mouths an 'alright' before going to check around the area.

While, I closed my scanning the area in search for the signals of cath. No signs on north . No signs on South. No signs on- wait! My creased and my eyes shot open. Shit I felt that energy. I'm damn sure the radiations are from east. Without wasting any more time, I rush towards the east.

I look around and light catches my eye. I ran towards it. My lips curved up, and there it is. The Holozoic Catheenofur laying on the ground with a blue hemispherical shield protecting it. I sighed in relief. " That was tough." I mumbled and bent down and touched the sheild. As soon as it sensed my touch, the sheild disappeared and I saw a...chick?

My eyes narrowed at the little creature. But he hopped as soon as he looked at me. And I understood.

" JIMIN HYUNGGG!!!" I exclaimed with joy before picking him up. He tapped his claws on my hand jumping in my hand at our reunion.

He opened his mouth and dropped the Holy Cath on my other palm. I was quick to connect with him through telepathy. " So you turned to a chick?"

" Highness! They're around!!!"

" What do you-"I was cut shortly with the sounds of weapons slashed in my ears and then armed men surrounded me in a fraction of seconds.

Shit! The royal forces from eternal land are here!

They rhythmically pull their royal swords from the sockets on their waists all together. Then theyco-ordinating-ly  raised them up and in a swift motion, they jabbed it on the ground. " YOUR HIGHNESS! " They salute aloud before bowing a 90°.

Then they break the circle, opening it from the front. And my eyes fall onto the charming man that comes riding the horse. The horse running in the thin air, now smoothly lands at a few distance and the armoured man's face comes to my view.

" Jin hyung " I mutter under my breath. He jumped off the horse and takes out his sword, thrusting it in a same manner before bowing me. " Young Prince, finally I found you." He said, maintaining the poker face.Then he walked to me.

" We're here to take you back." He announced in his stern voice. My brows furry. " So it was a trap, Admiral?" I questioned tightening my hold onto the gem. Then before anything happens, I slide the gem in my pocket, and the chick Jimin hyung climbs up on my shoulder.

" Young Prince, we're gone!"" Oh my goodness! I still haven't fallen in love!! Nothing will happen to you but His Majesty ( Suga)  will surely behead me for supporting and tagging along with you. I told you to so many times to stop, but do you ever listen to someone?!  My dear lifeu. My unborn babies in my dic-"

" Shut the fuck , hyung!"

" Either you surrender an Please come along or I'll have to forcefully take you, young Prince." Jin hyung threatens me with his eyes. " No! You can't order me! I won't go!" I yell clenching my jaw.

" This isn't my order, this is the emperor's royal order. It would be a crime if I denied his orders." Jin hyung calms replied. " Oh, woah woah woah! " I clapped my hands in mocking way." Royal orders. Just great." I sarcastically say and laughed to myself.

" You talk about right and wrong, huh? Don't you know that if you take me there, then they'll just marry me of to that Isabella?! You find it okay, I'm forced in marriage with some bitch that I don't like. Leave, the girl, I don't even like the idea of getting married!

How can you all, fucking tie me to a woman for the rest of my life? How can you all think that I can spend my life the same woman?!"  I angrily spat. My hands balled in fists and anger fumes in my veins in seconds.

" Young Prince, Isabella is a heiress, she's kind and the most beautiful woman on eternal land. It's the perfect age for someone to get married and that's why the royal family is stressing upon it so much. I suggested you to stop getting intimate with the whole universe and try to open your heart. And moreover she likes you alot." He calmly explained.

" Whatsoever! I don't give a flying fuck! I'm not marrying neither going back with you!" I shout at him, the veins on my neck pop out and blood rushed to my eyes.

Jin hyung bows down. I eyebrows balled in suspicion. " Then, I heartily apologize." He speaks up with a straight face.

" CAPTURE HIM! " He ordered in his stern voice and the guards roughly gripped my arms. Half of them covered me from the back, and the rest from the front. They started dragging me. I struggled vigorously to get free from their hold. " Leave me you fucking lower grade soldier!"

" Young Prince, I kindly request you to not badmouth my soldiers." Jin hyung said looking at me from over his shoulder. Me feet drag against the ground. Nonetheless, I keep on cursing him and the whole enternity even after he told me not to.

Their grips are like steel. No matter how hard are try. They're absolutely enchanted with the royal spell. So no use of me being more powerful than them. Besides that, Jin hyung is also here, and I'm sure he'll everything to not let go.

What do I do? What do I do??

" Teleport, young master!"

" Nice idea, Jimin hyung. But I Can't do that until they have their holds on me."

There's no way they're leaving my hand!

But suddenly a loud voice pierced through the silence canopies.

" AYO HOES , LEAVING WITHOUT MEETING ME? "
