8 Chapter 8 : The Phone

Jaebum scowled at the ministers, they insisted on an emergency meeting about his schedule. Apparently he will be so damn busy that day onwards that he knew for sure that he wouldn't be able to be with Jinyoung when he goes back to his parent's house.

"I have no time for this, I wanted a few months rest and even though I am King I am still entitled to a moment of peace and solitude, how dare you say that I will lack in my duties?!" Jaebum growls as he looks darkly at the trembling men in front of him.

The ministers bow down.

"Pyeha..we meant no disrespect. Everyone knows how much work is to be done now especially when those rebellious fugitives is wreaking havoc on our borders..we are just reminding you Pyeha..the nation needs you. Please don't forget our countrymen who is living near the border, living their lives in fear, wondering if the King forgets all about them or else is ignoring their situation. Pyeha..we wanted for you to be healthy and strong but this is a critical situation..have mercy on our people and lead us to safety Pyeha..."

"Lead us to safety Pyeha..."

All the ministers bow down to the King as Jaebum felt his anger drain away by the explanation. What a fool he has been, of course, he is the leader of this land and he has to make many sacrifices for the sake of his people.

He is quite ashamed that here he is thinking and fantasizing about the supposed upcoming days at the Park Clan's house with Jinyoung when the people of his kingdom are living their lives in worry and fear.

"I will call on a meeting with our soldiers and ministers in charge of defense, as soon as possible. These rouges have been pestering us for such a long time already. This can't go on as it is.."

Minister Li bows his head in agreement.

As soon as the meeting finished eunuch Jia looks concerned at the King who is left deep in thought.

"Anything on your mind Pyeha?"

Jaebum stays silent for a minute until he speaks his mind.

"I am curious as to what is the reason why these fugitives are attacking our Kingdom when we have a peaceful agreement with our neighbor kingdoms..."

"The report says that our neighbors have no clue as to who sent those fugitives but as far as we know they can be lying to us Pyeha.."

"But I have a bad feeling about this.."

Eunuch Jia looks at the King.

"I think it's time for me to clean my own backyard."

--------❤---------❤-----------❤

Chen looks at the scared Jinyoung who is now hiding in his room after the meeting with the King and his family. The young man is not fond of the idea that he will live in the Park Clan's house and train as a perfect gentle lady of the house.

One thing is he's not a lady and he didn't belong in that time.

"Lady Park, we're supposed to be packing your belongings before heading towards your family home." Chen reminds Jinyoung who looks at him sheepishly.

"I don't want to go. Help me Chen. I need to escape this place." Jinyoung whines as he sat on his bed.

"Lady Park, you don't have to worry about going to your parent's house..the King instructs me to go with you so that you'll be more comfortable and be at ease with yourself. I do know that you're a man beneath all that feminine feature. Lady Park, your mother, and your father also know the truth. We will keep your secrets." Chen bows down toward him which makes Jinyoung sigh.

"I...Chen..I'm a man..and as far as I know, I am not attracted to another man before but the King is..expecting something from me and I don't think I can do it.." Jinyoung said as he thinks about the man who now occupies his thoughts.

"I can't help you with that Lady Park for going against the King means death, I have a solution for your problems. You said that as far as you know you have never felt attracted to the same gender before, now that you're acting like a lady why don't you try to like him back. Just try it, let him court you and take you to places and such..maybe you'll find it in yourself to like him too." Chen carefully said towards Jinyoung who is now bitting on his lower lip.

Jinyoung looks at Chen.

"What if I am not made to be a lady I mean I grew up as guy I just can't learn all those girly things in a few months..."

Chen contemplates what he said and smiled brightly as he comes up with an idea.

"Why let yourself be an actor..you know the ones who are holding some shows and entertainment whenever a festival is held within the city. Be a character that the people want you to be but still keep your true self behind closed doors. Easier to pretend that you're acting instead of rearranging your whole demeanor and personality entirely right?"

Jinyoung looks at Chen with a small smile..suddenly missing his friends Bambam, Yugyeom and Mark. He jumped all over Chen and engulfs the smaller man in a tight hug.

"Thank you Chen..for being nice to me." Jinyoung mumbles.

Chen awkwardly pats Jinyoung on the head as he stays still not touching any part of the lady's body for she is the King's property. If the King ever found out that they are in their current state, with Jinyoung draped all over his body, the King just might order for his castration and he doesn't want that..no sir.

"Your welcome Lady Park but, can you please let go now. I can't breathe and the King will kill me if he saw us like this." Chen mutters under his breath.

"Pshh...I don't know what I need to pack anyway because I have no belongings here...wait.." Jinyoung suddenly stopped when he remembers what he is wearing when the earthquake strikes.

"Lady Park?..what is it?"

Jinyoung looks at Chen with excitement in his eyes.

"That day, when I fell off the sky. I am wearing my Halloween costume, I also have a led watch and I have my cellphone with me.." Jinyoung smile at the healer who curiously looks at him.

"What's a cellphone Lady Park?"

"It's an equipment that will help me contact my friends! I need to know where it is.." Jinyoung stands up and looks around.

He looks back at Chen.

"Where is it?"

"Uhm...I don't know..maybe we can ask your lady in waiting...Sulli! Wonhee!"

The two ladies walk inside and bows towards Jinyoung.

"Is there anything you need Lady Park?" Wonhee asks as Jinyoung nods his head excitedly.

"I want to ask where is my clothes and my stuff..the ones I am wearing when I first got here.."

The two maids looked at each other before answering her.

"The King kept your things inside the Royal Chamber Lady Park," Sulli announced as Jinyoung gasp in shock.

How the hell am I going to have my things without that Jaebum dude knowing ughghhh..

"I want to get it back.." Jinyoung sulkily said as the three look nervously at him.

Chen chuckles nervously.

"Lady Park, as you are not yet a concubine, it is unwise for you to ask for an audience with the King. That will be viewed as unrespectful, you could only wait for the King to visit you and then tell him your needs." Chen explains.

Jinyoung frowns as he thinks of other ways to attain his goal when an idea pops on his mind, cursing himself on why he hasn't realized it yet, but since he only has gotten him now.

"Oppa...I need him! Take me to Captain Park right now." Jinyoung said as Chen, smiles nervously at such an unpredictable master.

"But the Captain is currently at the training grounds right now Lady, we can't just barge in there and..."

Jinyoung ignores the smaller man's speech when he stood up and went out of that room as fast as his feet can.

"Lady Park!..." Chen whines as he has no choice but to follow.

----------❤-----------❤-----------❤

The soldiers are all having a last-minute practice when the strangest thing happens which left all of them frozen on the spot staring incredulously at Captain Park who is now being glomped over by a lady.

"Omo..who is that lady.."

"She's very pretty..."

"I would like to know that one.."

"Is she Captain Park's lover?"

Chanyeol glared at the soldiers as fiercely as he can while laying on the floor with Jinyoung sitting right on his chest, skirts all over his (Chanyeol's) face.

"Hi guys...carry on with your exercise,.." Jinyoung waved a hand as if shooing the soldiers who are looking at him in wonder.

"Jinyoung, now is not the time for play.." Chanyeol said, gritting his teeth and closing his eyes as he felt his sister leans over to him so that their faces are now in front of each other.

"But I need you, and you're my big brother now so you got to help me."

"I will help you alright, just so that I can get your little ass off of my chest..what if the King heard of this incident. He will have my head on a plate!" Chanyeol hisses as he continues to close his eyes.

"Don't be so dramatic Oppa... I just need to have a little talk with the King and apparently I can't do that yet so you need to call on him or pass my message to him.."

Chanyeol finally opens his eyes and looks at Jinyoung's smiling face.

"Why do you want to talk to him..and why are you sitting all over me..in front of the soldiers.." Chanyeol finally whines back as he can't hit Jinyoung since he is a girl in front of the people around them.

"Because I like sitting on you, you make a good couch. Anyway please help me oppa..please.." Jinyoung straightens up, clasping his hands together and does some aegyo which makes the men coo over him.

Chanyeol looks around and curses himself, what if the King suddenly visits and saw them in this position.

"Captain Park!"

Chanyeol stops breathing.

"Speaking of the devil..." he mutters under his breath as Jinyoung stays still for once.

The King walks towards them with a purpose as he stares coldly at Jinyoung who looks at him innocently and then at Chanyeol who is signaling him something with his eyes.

"What.," Jinyoung asks as Chanyeol shuts his eyes again.

"Park Jinyoung..." Jaebum gritted his teeth as he saw the man he wants happily ignoring him in favor of his brother.

"Yeah Jaebummiee?" Jinyoung asks as mutters and hisses broke out of the soldiers who are all kneeling for the King.

"He called the King by his name.."

"Oh God..and I like her now she'll be punished.."

Jaebum ignores the people as he looks at his lover or would-be lover.

"Might I ask why are you here at the military field, sitting as pretty as you pleased all over your giant of a brother." Jaebum angrily asks as Chanyeol prays silently for his life. The King only calls him a giant when the man is annoyed by him.

"Uhmm..I need to ask him something.."

"Why are you all over him?"

"Because I was running.."

"That doesn't explain.."

"And then I tripped.."

"You tripped?"

"On my freaking damn skirt..and then I fell, and my brother doesn't want to lay a hand on me that's why I grabbed him.."

"So..."

"But he tries to escape so I hug him tight and wormed my ass all over his chest and effectively pinned him down.." Jinyoung explained, satisfied with his job.

Jaebum takes a deep breath and tries to calm himself.

"Okay, now that you have his attention you can stand up now alright." Jaebum gently said as he held out his hands.

Jinyoung looks down on his brother.

"Now that he's here I can say what I want now oppa...thanks for nothing.." Jinyoung pouts as Chanyeol looks at him.

"Jinyoung I am in the middle of training my men.."

"Shut it oppa..I will tell our mother and father about this.." Jinyoung accepted Jaebum's hands and let the King assist him.

Chanyeol gets up as soon as Jinyoung removes himself from his person.

"Aiyooo..not even a week has passed and you're already the bratty little sister..this is why I don't want one.." Chanyeol grumbled under his breath.

Jinyoung pouts at Chanyeol as Jaebum holds his hand tight and steer him away from the Captain.

"Jinyoung, you said you wanted to talk to me. What is it that you want..you don't have to go to your brother to come and find me. Send one of your maids if you wanted a word.."

"But..they said it's not proper..anyway they said that you have my things with you..I need them back."

Jaebum walks away dragging the smaller man with him who looks around and waved goodbye to Chanyeol who glares at him as if saying GOOD RIDDANCE.

"Jinyoung, I kept them in my chamber because my people will freak out with your..things. It keeps on emitting some strange sound sometimes." Jaebum quietly said as Jinyoung gasp.

"OMG! My phone is still working..that sound you heard is a ringtone..someone is calling me??!!! I need to get it back please.." Jinyoung looks at Jaebum with pleading eyes as Jaebum lifted an eyebrow at him, putting his hands behind his back as he looks at Jinyoung.

"What's in it for me.."

Jinyoung gasps as he looks at Jaebum with judging eyes.

This freaking man has the nerve. Being a King doesn't make it all right to be a jerk ugh..what does this man want.

"Well, what do you want in exchange.."

"I want a kiss.." Jaebum suddenly wraps a hand on Jinyoung's waist as he pulls him closer to his body.

Eunuch Jia and the long line of servants behind the King all averted their eyes from the scene as Jinyoung gasp in embarrassment.

"What the hell... no!"

"Sooner or later you need to give in..you will be one of my consorts.."

Jaebum leans down to smell Jinyoung's hair, trailing down sideways towards the smaller man's ears which if flushed red, dipping low he puts a kiss below Jinyoung's neck making the man push him away to no avail as Jaebum is stronger than him.

"Stop it you pervert King!" Jinyoung shouted as Eunuch Jia coughs awkwardly.

"One kiss Jinyoung ah..."
