DIAMOND| YOONMIN

XXI. Battle I

"Everything you're running away from is in your head." Unknown.

The knights gathered in front of the castle, facing their King who was standing in front of them with confidence.

The Duke of Vulas watched him giving orders to his army. A part of him didn't believe that their plan could work, he doubted that a simple elixir could help them defeat the most dangerous creatures in the world.

He saw him pacing in front of the males and females who will fight by his side, his hands behind his back, walking with confidence and pride. He had a presentiment that this was not going to last long.

He averted his gaze and his eyes rested on the beautiful diamond-haired. Fear and worry were drawn on his pale face.

He wanted to feel bad for him, but he was one of the big reasons they were going to fight that day.

"I want no fear nor weakness!" the King shouted to the crowd who screamed a loud, "YES SIR!"

"Today we will win this war! We will show them how strong we are!"

Taehyung rolled his eyes, "Strong with an elixir." he mumbled to himself.

"Today, we will end this sad story and start a happy one." Yoongi added, looking at Jimin with loving eyes. "We won't let anyone ruin our life and our love."

"YES SIR!" the soldiers shouted.

The General appeared next to the King and bowed to him, "We are ready, your majesty." he said.

Yoongi nodded and took Jimin's hand. He faced him and stared at his eyes for a long moment.

The young man was smiling, when in reality his heart was sad and shattered to see the King whose eye color changed every time. His lover had mixed emotions; fear, nervousness, anger and love.

"It's going to be alright." Jimin whispered to him, trying very hard to hold his tears.

"Of course." the King nodded, "We can do it." he approached his small hand to his lips and placed a gentle kiss on it. "For our love."

"And for Princess Kythaela." the diamond-haired added, surprising his lover. "She didn't deserve what happened to her."

Yoongi's eyes watered as he watched the young man staring at him with a soft smile, "Diamond..." he whispered. "Every time...you make me fall deeply in love with you."

Jimin pressed his lips and took the King in his arms. He heard whispers around them but he ignored everyone and hide his face in the crook of Yoongi's neck, "I love you my King." he said.
