"You Fool, I have told you to take better care of yourself. You really make me worry. How am I even supposed to send you there with an ease mind if you are like this?" Minhyun vocalised as he stared down at the girl laying on the gra.s.s.

Beside her was multiple number of numbers, and held within Soohyun"s hand was a flower with couple of its petal off of it. This made Minhyun wonder on about what she was doing with all this flowers and petals.

Crouching down, he picked up the girl on the ground, and carrying her in a bridal style, he stood up straight. Seeing her peacefully sleeping caused a small smile to spread on his lips.

"I even wonder what it was about you that made me fall for you," Minhyun mumbled as he started to walk with her in his arms.

Having her in his arms was enough to raise his desire to keep her protected and have his heart beat up rapidly. 

Seeing how happy and peaceful she looked while she was sleeping, he always wanted to maintain such an expression on her face she was awake.

Recalling about the danger she will be putting herself in, he hugged her body closer to hers as if never wanting to let her go away from her. 

Having her out of his sight made him already feel worried, and the thought of sending her into an unknown territory was enough to make him anxious.

A sigh left his mouth.

Nonetheless, he knew that Soohyun would not like it if he had cut down her wings. He was afraid that Soohyun would be taking a wrong step if he kept on saying no to her, and therefore, he decided to agree along with her.

"I will keep you safe; I promise you that," he stated, "Regardless of what the consequences are, I promise you that I would not let you lose your life— something you value the most."

With those words, Han Minhyun disappeared into the thin air.

Appearing into their bedroom, Minhyun walked over to the bed and placed her on the bed. After tucking her inside the blanket, he sat at one of her side and placed his hand over her cheeks.

"Sleep tight and without any worries. You know that I am here for you. I promise to protect you, and I still hope that you can still reconsider your decision to go there. I-I c-can"t protect you if you go there. You know that as well," Minhyun vocalised.

Noticing how she slightly stirred in her sleep, he instantly moved his hand from the top of her hand, and bringing his face closer to her face, he placed a soft kiss on top of her forehead.

"I love you, Soohyun," Minhyun vocalized, "You don"t have to force yourself because of that or feel obliged about loving me back. It was a decision made by me entirely, and I don"t regret it. So, don"t distress yourself over it."

"You look to be in a bad state, Hyung. Do you need some rest?" Yejoon vocalised as he sat down on the couch beside Minhyun.

The two of them were currently inside Minhyun"s study room inside the castle, and seeing Minhyun in this state was starting to worry Yejoon. He was aware on how Minhyun was tensed about the entire mission, and at that moment, it appeared as if he had another new trouble growing for him.

"It is Jiwoo; she wants to give a hand with this mission," Minhyun said, "That is not the worse part though. She wants to work as a spy for us, and by infiltrating through their bas.e.m.e.nt, she wants to make one of those works for them betray them. She is completely nuts for suggesting something like that."

"Jiwoo"s idea is impressive although it is dangerous, and maybe with her help, although it goes against your morality at parts, Hyung, we will be able to defeat the enemy," Yejoon stated, "I can see why you are reluctant to send Jiwoo, but she can handle it. 

If she decided to do it, she must be confident in it. Even if she likes you worrying about her, she would need someone to support her at this moment, and Hyung, only you are able to do that. 

This must be difficult for you, Hyung, but think of this from Jiwoo"s point of view. I am sure she takes herself to be someone useless in this mission, and although slightly, she wants to contribute in her. 

That"s why, Hyung, lift up her spirits instead of making her feel scared. She might cause a mess if she is frightened on the entire thing."

"You are right, Yejoon. I know all of that. Despite of that, I can"t help but be reluctant of it. I have an ominous feeling on the entire thing," Minhyun said.

"Since I have not been in such a position, I can"t help you, Hyung, but you will be pa.s.sing this as well. Just trust in Jiwoo"s capabilities. Even I know that she will be able to solve the problem smoothly. She is not as weak as any one takes her to be," Yejoon voiced out, "You are being too paranoid."

"Is that so?" Minhyun questioned.

He then said, "Alright then, I will fix my emotions. I can"t let them slip out of me or else that foolish girl will make some mistake. I guess within the short time I have, I will try to guide her as much as possible, so that she keeps herself alive."

Yejoon chuckled and said, "Get your spirits up, Hyung! I will arrange an ident.i.ty and disguise for Jiwoo. In the meanwhile, prepare her, Hyung. We have our spies there, and they will be able to take care of Jiwoo. The moment she gets caught, you can simply tell her to transport out of there."

Minhyun said, "I will strictly emphasize to her on running away by leaving everything behind when situation gets serious."
