Run"Your Majesty?"
The greet sounded like a question when Jisoo opened the door revealing Seungkwan, with Shinyoung behind him. This time, the twins sneaked out after a while of not doing so. It was early in the morning, so no one would expect them to do such thing. Jisoo welcomed the twins in their small house, it was the first time that he met with the former Prince, which was now a King.
"What brings you here, my Lord?" All of them formally greeted him as Jisoo asked the question. "Yesterday, my sister, with the help of one of you found this chest and we have seen what was inside. However, there was one thing that we couldn't identify and we hoped you would know what it is." Seungkwan said and took the chest from Shinyoung's hands.
He then took out a key from his shirt and unlocked the chest. Seungkwan stopped at first before taking a deep breath and opened the chest. The atmosphere around was tensed. All of them felt the uneasiness taking over them. As soon as what was inside the chest was revealed, all of them remained quiet, barely breathing.
"The woman in this chest is our grandmother, but we don't know who this werewolf is, although we have a strong assumption of who. Still, we were hoping you could give us an answer." Seungkwan said ever so calmly. Shinyoung turned to the opposite way, she didn't want to look at it again. It was horrifying, what happened to her grandmother and her parents' bodies.
It was bone-chilling thinking of it. She wondered how her and Seungkwan's bodies would end up when they're deceased. How her children's bodies will, her grandchildren's. Being a royal born was quite horrible for the current situation.
Most of the males had their heads to the other side, away from the horrible scene in the chest, even Jisoo. Junghan then inhaled a proper breath before stepping closer to the chest. He bravely traced his fingers on the wolf's head as he examined it closer. Everyone looked at him, they were surprised how he could stand doing that. Shinyoung, noticed it was quiet so she looked up and saw Junghan examining the head.
"It's Cheolsu."
"Did you say Cheolsu? Are you sure?" Seungkwan asked as he looked at the long haired male closely. He knew that name so well, well enough to be related to him. If what Junghan said was true, then the heads inside the chest were his grandparents'
Junghan re-examined the head and after a while he nodded. "See this scar on his ear?" Junghan pointed it to the King. He squinted his eyes and when he saw it, he nodded. "Cheolsu got it in a spar when he was younger, my grandfather told me. The man he sparred with was my grandfather." Junghan stated as he lightly placed the head back in the chest and shut it closed.
"Seungkwan, isn't Cheolsu... " Shinyoung didn't even have the heart to finish her words. It was too much for her to bear. Seungkwan nodded lifelessly at his sister's words, he knew what she was going to say. The twins thanked the wolves before leaving the house and back to their castle. It was such heartbreaking to find out their families in this state.
"What do the heads mean?" Seokmin asked, he had been wanting to ask that but he kept it in since it would be rude for him to say in front of the twins. "I'm not sure what it stands for, but the twins are in great danger. Whoever is hunting them is merciless." Jisoo said, he was worried for their safety. It was unpredictable and no one knew who this man was.
"First, he took out their p
