Chapter 10: Chapter Seven: Dinner
The boys glared at their youngest through the whole dinner.
It didn't go unnoticed by the latter but he kept his chin high and chewed, hiding a grin.
You on the other hand just looked at their actions and raised your eyebrow ever so lightly.
~
After trying to let Jungkook let you walk, you gave up and kept on threatening him not to drop you. He kept his smile on his face and said things along the lines of 'alright', 'I would never' and more.
It was a fast three minutes without you slowing down. You felt your dignity shrinking down as you process what is going on.
A man, who you don't know well enough, is carrying you.
You, who have gone through countless violence and murder.
Is now being carried like a baby by a man.
Who also happens to be one of your mates.
You forced your embarrassment back and kept quiet.
~
You snapped back to reality when a voice called out to you.
"Is the food alright? We could ask the chef to cook something you would like?" Jin asked across the table, setting his fork down and wiping the side of his mouth with a napkin. You looked at him and cleared your throat, holding your spoon.
"It's good, don't worry," You muttered quietly, casting him a soft smile and getting to your soup. You looked right back up when you heard a gasp and a clink of a utensil. You see Jin covering his mouth, Jimin, and Hoseok who is beside him having their own action.
Jimin looked at you with wide eyes while Hoseok is choking. Your eyes widen by a bit and leaned forward.
"Are you guys alright?" You asked, dropping the spoon. Jimin was the first to snap back.
"You," He got cut off by Hoseok who had had regain his composition.
"You smiled," He pointed out. You blinked as the other brothers leaned forward to see your face. You breathed to your nose as to stop the embarrassment that is now mocking you.
"It was so cute," you heard the oldest whisper. You looked at them confused and sighed.
"I didn't smile," You coldly breathed, lazily glaring at the trio. Jin didn't react to what you said and just kept on staring at you. Namjoon cleared his throat, getting the attention off of you. You breathed in relief as you glanced at the man. He nodded and changed the topic.
"What time would you like to go to your, camp?" He asked. You thought about it for a moment before answering.
"Around eleven in the morning would be nice," You suggested. He nodded and was about to ask another question when Taehyung beat him to it.
"Why are you always whispering?" He asked across the table. You blinked as you remember that this is the second time he asked that question.
"Taehyung," Yoongi scolded his younger brother. Taehyung looked at him shrugged before looking back at you.
"You can hear me just fine so I don't see any reason to speak up." You shrugged before sipping your soup with your spoon.
"Can we hear it?" Jungkook asks, out of a sudden. You felt your heart jump and you thanked your body for not jumping. He has been quiet since you both have sat down so you got surprised when he suddenly talked. You looked at him and slowly shook your head.
He whined and pouted, sticking his lower lip out. You stopped yourself from cooing over the bunny and raised a brow in return. The boy was going to speak but a warrior slammed the doors open.
The princes stood up, looking at the warrior. Jungkook held your shoulder and Taehyung stood in front of you, like protecting you from the eyes of the warrior. You told yourself that it was only because of the mate bond they acted this way.
"Changkyun, you interrupted our dinner. You better have an explanation and a good one at that," Namjoon spoke up on the behalf of everyone in the room.
Changkyun bowed and saluted. His eyes lingered at you for a second with realization and shock lingering but held back the said emotion.
"Sorry Alpha, but a letter with a black seal came in," He raised a hand to show a letter that has a small seal decorating the middle. Your eyes scanned the man who seamed stiff and serious. He is wearing a jacket with a white polo underneath. His black slacks ended just right above his black socks under polished shoes. The hand that held the letter has a white glove with buttons decorating the side of it.
Yoongi, who is the nearest, laid out a palm to the man. Changkyun rushed and placed the letter on the latter's hand. Yoongi sniffed once and you could see the disgust that took over his face.
"Leeches," He said and that is all it took to get the men in the room change. Your eyebrows furrowed in confusion since you don't know what that meant.
"Damn vampires," A voice growled lowly beside you. You turned your head to face the youngest who is glaring at the letter like it would make it burn to ashes. You touched his forearm, gently pulling the back down.
Sparks exploded right beneath your palm and you could clearly see that Jungkook felt the effect. He looked at you, eyes softening and let you drag him down.
You looked to your other side and see Taehyung clenching his fists tightly, enough to draw bits of red liquid.
You clenched your jaw then grabbed the napkin swiftly. You once again felt sparks celebrating when you held his hand. He looked down at you, eyes blinking and jaw unclenching.
You ignored the sparks and the stare the two brothers are giving you and peeled Taehyung's fingers slowly. You bit your tongue when the cut was bigger than you thought they were.
You wiped the blood off, adding bits of pressure around the wounds. You looked up to see if the man is feeling any pain but found that Taehyung is staring at you, dazed.
You focused back at his hand and got another cloth. You wrapped it around his hand and placed it back down.
"Thank you," He murmured. You looked at him and send a small, gentle smile.
"Don't do that again," You said and faced back the other brothers who were arguing across one another.
"I, in no condition, will ever want to touch anything from those godforsaken creatures," Jimin growled out, glaring lasers at the letter that Yoongi threw at the middle of the table.
The latter was wiping his hands on the table cloth repeatedly, disgust written across his face.
"I can smell it from here," Hoseon gagged and shrinked away. Jin scooted his chair away and continued to eat to distract himself from the smell that you can't sense.
Namjoon was torn apart, not knowing what to do. He also doesn't want to touch the letter but someone has to do so to read what it contains. Changkyun stood at the side of the table, slyly but hastily pulling off the white gloves that he wore and threw them to the foot of the table.
You sighed and leaned forward, catching the letter with the side of your middle and index finger. You inspected the seal that is presented in front of you and saw that it is outlined with purple.
"It's from the royals." You heard movement beside you and see Namjoon and Yoongi beside you. You pulled the seal and pulled back when it felt slimy.
"What the fuck?" You cursed, looking at the liquid that is now dripping on your finger. You looked back at the seal and now only saw the shine it gives off. Namjoon touched the liquid but then hissed and retracted his hand. You could see him wiping his finger on a napkin.
"Wolfsbane." He looked at his finger in disbelief and in the letter. You looked at his finger and see that there are no marks. You grabbed your glass of water and dumped his finger in it. You grabbed his other hand and wrapped it around the glass.
You wiped your finger on your sleeve and continued to open the letter, despite the warnings of the men.
The paper used looks like it had been centuries since last used. Its color is brown and the edges are burned like its been scorched.

Greetings My kings,
I would like for you to know that the lovely lady that is probably sitting on your dinner table right now is gonna be dead by the second Sunday next month.
I am kind enough to let you have your time with her and not kill each one of you right now.
But remember my dear Nyx, I know more than you know.
- Jackson Wang

Your jaw clenched even harder as you sighed out of your nose.
How the hell did he know where you are?
What does he mean about 'Knowing more' than you know?
A hand got in contact with your shoulder. Your instinct got the best of you and you dropped the letter, twisting the hand and turning around, holding the poor man's hand against his back.
Sudden pain in your thigh fired up with intense pain but you completely shrugged it off.
"Ouch," Jimin winced as you unconsciously held it tighter. You dropped the hand.
"Shit, I'm sorry," You whispered out, taking a stumbling back. He turned around and waved his hands.
"It is alright. That means you have good reflexes." He laughed, rolling his shoulder.
"But are you alright? Your thigh is still in a bad condition," He asked, eyebrows furrowed. You pursed your lips and gave him a small nod.
He gave you a concerned glance as he grabbed the letter and he read it.
The other men got close to Jimin and Jungkook rubbed your lower back before leaving to get to Jimin's side.
Jin didn't head to the group but instead went up to you.
"I have called your maids to fetch you to your room. If you need anything, tell them and it shall be granted," The oldest said in a formal tone.
Behind the door right behind Changkyun is where the ladies stood, you supposed.
You looked back at the boys who are now talking with low voices and with mad, serious faces. You walked to them and took the letter.
"Nyx-" Yoongi tried to tell you off but you ignored it and peeled the seal off the paper. You folded it back and laid it to Jin's hand.
"Goodnight," You whispered out, resulting in multiple small waves and mutters of 'Goodnight'.
You walked back to the ladies, who raised their heads back up and followed your tail.
The three of you walked back up with no problem when Gyuri spoke up.
"Madam, I do not intend to offend you in any way but who are you?" She said, making you stop and looked back.
Raven gasped and looked at her with a murderous glare.
"Gyuri," She scolded her partner. You raised a hand to calm Raven down and nodded softly at her.
You looked back at the other girl, who now looks like she regrets even being born.
You send her a smile, so numb she whimpered and took a small step back, bearing her neck as a sign of submission.
Raven flinched and rubbed her arms to get the goosebumps off.
You said one simple sentence that made them stumble.
"I'm Nyx."
