Prologue Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4
Yesung knew ever since the first time he met the siblings they have different characteristics. When he heard Rella insulting him, he knew in an instant the girl is very brave-yet also careless. Brave, because she always protects her little brother in an almost protective way whatever it cost and even throwing stones at a vampire…..careless because she had insulted said vampire that turns out to be a crown princess private bodyguard right in front the king and said princess’ faces. So of course, after seeing that much plus the knowledge of the difference she has with her brother Yesung will think Yunho is a nice, calm and perhaps shy boy.
Now that Yesung has a headache *and probably steam comes out from his ears too* as he’s seeing said ‘nice, calm and perhaps shy boy’ Yunho running around inside the library with the six years old crown prince, he couldn’t help but think that perhaps miss Rella had left her little brother because he is even more rascal than her sister. I mean, of all places…..in library??? In the middle of studying too!!!
“Yunho hyung can’t catch meeee!! Ahahaha~~”
“Oh yeah? We’ll see about that!”
Veins popping in Yesung’s head anime-style and every time they popped out, it’s getting bigger and bigger. A loud sound wakes him up and he sees the boys had toppled over three piles of books in the corner of the room. How did they do that, Yesung would rather not know because he had a bigger matter in hands now.
“JUNG YUNHO!! LEE KANGTA!!! STOP THIS MESS. RIGHT. NOW!!!!”
The two boys yelped and glomping each other, afraid of the sudden loud voice of their hyung/songsaeng. Yesung glares at them with his black chilly eyes.
“Y-Yesung hyung…..you can’t yell at prince Kangta like that….”
Yunho immediately closed his mouth when Yesung’s glare now focused on him. “I have every right to since I’m his teacher and his adoptive brother if you remember my position. And who are you to talk back at me like that?!”
Now Yunho really scared and the little prince in his arms almost cry but he is not. Yesung told him thousand times that crying is normal, that boys can cry too but not over little things and how low of a human if he is crying to avoid getting punished.
Sounds of laugh from the door make all of them realize that they are not alone in the library anymore. There are the new king and queen plus some maids laughing softly at what happened. Yesung bows at them and Yunho quickly stands up to follow suit. “Yesung-ah” queen Boa giggles softly “I’m so glad you take charge in teaching Yunho-ah and Kangta-ah….you are a good teacher” The king smiles at him “And there are some good side effects too”
At Yesung’s confused look the king’s smile grew wider. “Actually, since the first time you took care of both Yunho and Kangta together….do you realize you had showed a lot of emotions in your face and acts?” Yesung feels his cheeks heated and turns around to barks at the guilty boys to clean up the mess and not to mess the library again. He sits down in his chair again, massaging his temple. Is this what a fifteen years old 1st class soldier do as side duty? To teaches and barks and baby-sits one of the subordinate and the crown prince?
Later that night Yesung is reading a book in his room with a light on when his door opened and a small figure comes in. Closing his book and putting it aside, Yesung grabs the prince by his waist and place him in his bed. “Bad dream?” Little Kangta just shakes his head with a smile. “I just wanna sleep with hyung” he said with his cute little voice. Yesung smiles at him and get up. Opening the door, there is Yunho standing there with a sheepish grin. “Don’t tell me you have a bad dream and now want to sleep together with me…” Yesung pinches Yunho’s left cheek. “No, hyung….but I saw prince Kangta went here so I thought why not have a nice chat before sleeping?” Yesung slaps Yunho’s cheek lightly and let him in. Yunho jumps to Yesung’s bed and tickles Kangta while Yesung prepares some make shift beds. “Hyung, we don’t need that!” Yesung looks up at Yunho. “Yesung hyung, let’s just sleep together in your bed!” Kangta jumps up and down happily. Yesung sighed but smiling nonetheless. “Ok. Now move and give me some room!”
The three boys are sleeping together in the bed with Yunho at Kangta’s right side and Yesung on the left and smiles painted on their faces.
About three hours later, Yesung opened his eyes again. Slowly getting up and make sure the boys are asleep, he moves silently to change his clothes and go outside with his sword. Outside at the east garden, the young lord is waiting for him.
“Yesung, are you sure you should go alone? I still think you should give Yunho a chance….” He hands Yesung a bundle of money. Yesung accepts it with a soft shake of his head. “No, sir…..” he stopped a moment seeing the young lord’s glare “….Father. He definitely hasn’t prepared enough as a fighter, thus I won’t allow him today. And I need someone to watch Kangta-ah” stopped again now he frowns “Come to think again, maybe it’s not a good idea, considering they almost destroy the library”
The king laughs softly at those words. “Yesung-ah, the queen and I always know you will be the best for them” Yesung just smiles and opens his wings. “I hope so, father. I’m leaving now” and he is gone in the darkness.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A lone figure’s standing under the tree, watching the bat-like figure in the sky. Stepping out from his place, he mutters some chants under his breath and thunders roaring in the sky.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“AH!!”
Yesung now really has to use all his acrobatic skill in flying. The weather has gone bad within the last three minutes and he has to dodge the thunders carefully. Trusting his instinct, he continues his journey when he feels something different. There’s a magic aura…..so this bad weather is a wizard-made, huh?
Looking around below, he knows wizards can’t fly, Yesung trying to locate the source of this troublesome weather. Dodging another thunder, he speeds toward a figure he found.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Said figure jumps to dodge Yesung’s sword, his mask fell, revealing a handsome face Yesung already familiar with. Yesung growls when he sees the face but he’s just grinning ear-to-ear.
“Jay….” Yesung grumbles “What the hell? You almost kill me, you know…”
The wizard, Jay, still grinning. Almost kill Yesung? Such nonsense won’t happen, Jay has seen lots of vampires and Yesung is one of the strong ones despite his young age. Besides, of course Jay won’t kill his master else the queen will kill him.
“Hyung….where are you going so late at night? Not telling me too!”
Eyeing him a moment, Yesung grabs Jay by his collar and fly again much to Jay’s protest.
“Hyung! What the…let go! I'm not a cat! If my collar’s torn I’ll be a dead meat!” But Yesung ignores him and Jay is crossing his arms, pouting. This is Yesung’s way of punishing him. At least he still takes Jay with him.
Soon enough they reach a mountain which Jay recognizes as his home. The Wizarding Grottos. “Hyung, are you sending me home because I was a bad subordinate?” Yesung looks at him incredulously and slaps the back of his head in ‘you’ve gotta be kidding me’ manner. “Silly. Just take me to the Great Sage, I have meeting with him”
Unknown to them, a girl in white robe is watching Yesung with wide eyes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Yesung-ah, it’s been a long time!” the Great Sage hugs Yesung and ruffles his head and Yesung forced himself to smile politely. Now he knew this old man never change, no matter how tall and skilful Yesung grows he will still see Yesung as ‘the silent cute boy’.
“Master Hwanhee, I hope you’ve been well” Yesung bows at him. Ruffling Yesung’s hair once again, the Great Sage Hwanhee takes Yesung’s shoulder and almost dragging him to his chamber. Dropping Yesung in a shell-like seat, Hwanhee gives him a cup of wine. Yesung tries to deny it by saying he is underage but he never can deny the stubborn old man since he’s young.
“Okay, spill”
“What?”
“Yesung-ah, I know you have something in your mind……”
“Oh yes, um……the king sent me to buy one of your herbal teas…..”
“What, that’s it?”
“Huh? Yes, of course. Something’s wrong, master?”
“Man, I thought you would come to me for advices now that you’re on the age already”
“……what advices?”
“About the birds and the bees…..Yesung-ah, what are you doing?”
Hwanhee leans over the table between them to look at Yesung who is rubbing his sore butt after he fell from the seat.
“Master Hwanhee……”
“Ah, I should’ve known you will be slow at this field. Don’t tell me you’re not seeing someone”
“I’m seeing you right in front of me and I could see some wizards outside and I saw Jay before….”
“No, no, no!!!! Silly boy, I mean……don’t you have someone on your mind? A girl?”
Yesung fell silent while standing up from the floor. A girl? Yesung’s mind flying to a particular girl he remembers all this time, the one who almost got him killed years ago, the one her little brother is his apprentice now….
“So you’re interested in her? Why didn’t tell me sooner, boy? Jay, tell Rella to come to my chamber!”
Yesung’s eyes widens when he heard that. So she’s still here? Oh no, that’s not the case…
“Master” Yesung growls “….did you just read my mind?” His answer is an amused laugh from the old man. “My boy, don’t worry about that! I understand if you’re interested, Rella is a beautiful girl!”
Yesung wonders if something bad will happen to him if he punches the still laughing man in front of him. One or two wouldn’t hurt him bad, he may be old but a great wizard like him still maintains his youth physically because of his powerful magic. Yesung met him when he was eight and Hwanhee was 113 at the time so now….
“Did you call me, Great Sage Hwanhee?”
Both men inside the chamber turn to look at the voice in the chamber’s entrance and Yesung tries not to pinch his arm in disbelief *damn Yunho for his childish influence*. A beautiful girl with white robe and flowing red hair also staring at him with wide eyes.
“….Ye…sung?”
That left Hwanhee giggles like mad and Jay trying his best calming the Great Sage because he knew Yesung’s wrath all to well.
I should’ve take Yunho with me then…
Hwanhee immediately knocks Yesung’s head with his hand. “You silly boy! There’s a beautiful girl standing in front of you and you just think about her little brother should’ve here too! Man, you ruined the mood…”
Yesung wants to retort back when he feels a hand on his right arm. Seeing Rella holding his arm almost make Yesung pinches his cheek or wherever because this is Rella, the one who hates him the most years ago and now she looks at him in….what?
“Let’s go outside, I…..have some things to talk”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inside the chamber, Great Sage Hwanhee calmly drink his wine.
“Jay-ah my boy….you’re not jealous, aren’t you?”
Jay just smiles a bit forcefully. “No……Rella never interested in me. She had rejected me since the first time, said she has another goal to reach. I just never expected that…..the goal she’s trying so hard to reach…..”
Stopping for a moment, he turns his head to the entrance where Rella and Yesung have gone to some minutes ago.
“……may be lies in the form of Yesung hyung”
