Baekbom, Luhan and Baekhyun arrived at the palace in the afternoon. They arrived at the same time with another man who is standing in front of the palace's gate, nervous. Baekhyun see him and walk towards him. "Excuse me. I'm Baekhyun. I'm sorry to disturb you. You seem nervous. Are you another pregboy which is matchmaking to one of the Royal Princes?" "How do you know? Oh I'm Jongin by the way.", Baekhyun shake Jongin hands. "Yeah I'm one of them too. I feel nervous too. I don't know what will happened in there." "Yeah just let's see." Baekbom call Baekhyun to go in and Baekhyun introduced Jongin to Baekbom and Luhan. Soon, they've already inside the throne room to see the king. They all bow to the king and the king greets them warmly. In the throne palace there are also Queen, Crown Prince Jungsoo, Prince Heechul, Prince Sungmin, and Prince Ryeowook. They all know about this arranged marriage for their brothers. But their eyes widened as soon as they saw Baekhyun come in to the throne room. Jungsoo see his father and his father nod and smile to him to give him a sign what's that mean. Jungsoo smile back and he feel curious how if Minseok and Baekhyun meet again after a couple of months they don't see each other. "Welcome to the Main Palace. You've already know why I call all of you the palace today. A Royal Prince has to have a companion couple soon after they reach of their ages. And here come you three, to be the companion of 3 of my sons. Am I clear?" "Yes Your Highness.", Three of them say it in the same time. "Good. I'm sorry for putting you guys in this situation, but I'm sure, you will soon probably not dissapointed anymore with this arranged marriage.", The King state. Then he continue. "Now for Mr. Kim Jongin from the south province, I'd like to introduce you to your future husband. It's Royal Prince Kim Jongdae." Jongdae come in to the throne room and smile at Jongin. Jongin gasped as soon as he see Jongdae. Jongdae walk to him. "Hi Jongin.", Jongdae smile and wrapped his arm to Jongin's shoulder. "Why you never say this to me? You make me feel nervous for 3 days. I thought something going wrong.", Jongin play to tickled Jongdae, Jongdae only laugh. The king smile about the interaction between Jongdae and Jongin and then he continue again. "For Mr. Byun Luhan from the East Province, I'd like to introduced you to your future husband. It's Royal Prince Kim Sehun." Sehun come in to the throne room but he set his straight face. He didn't have the idea what will Luhan do after he know this. But deep in his heart, he want Luhan so badly. As he stand beside the Luhan and he looks at him awkwardly. Luhan just look him back and whisper something to him. "Why you so silent? It's not your habit to keep silent like that?" "I just afraid maybe. I hope you can take this engagement happily. You know I like you since the day we met. But I don't know if you feel it forced to you." "No it's fine Sehun. I would like to get to know you and your family too." Luhan smile at him. Sehun smile widely after he see Luhan smile and go back to King. "And lastly for Mr. Byun Baekhyun from the East Province I'd like to introduce your future husband Royal Prince Kim Minseok." All of the people in that room seem to waiting what will happened between Minseok and Baekhyun. They all know about two of them. Only Baekhyun who doesn't. He just think that he will be married to strange and freak Prince who wear face mask everywhere. But in a couple of minutes, Minseok isn't coming to the room yet, so the king ask one of the servant to find him. "I'm sorry. I'm afraid we have to wait. Prince Minseok still on his way back from battle with some bandits. He will come here soon." "Is he alright Your highness? Well you know his health condition, he can't be really tired and bleeding.", Baekbom speak. "I've already warn him that Baekbom. He just stubborn as he did. But he promise me that he will look for his health condition.", the king answer him. Baekbom only nod in relieve. But Baekhyun think something else. He will married not only freak mask prince, but also stubborn and has a problem with his health condition. What a jackpot he thinks. He just sigh and lower his head. Luhan whisper something to Sehun. "Sehun, Does he mean Minseok who will married to Baekhyun is Minseok? Xiumin?" "Yeap.", Sehun answer and he continue. "When father ask us about this responsibility about getting married, he let us decide who we want to be with. Well I choose you and Jongdae hyung choose Jongin. But we know, Minseok hyung won't decide anybody. He refuse this arrange marriage but we have to do it. So me and Jongdae hyung told my father everything we know about their relationship and told father to choose Baekhyun for him. My father agree because he knows Minseok hyung love Baekhyun so much. My father want us to be happy with our love one. Minseok hyung doesn't even know Baekhyun will be his companion. And you look all of them? The king, queen, all of my brothers they're curious what will happened if we make them meet and Minseok hyung has to reveal his identity to Baekhyun." Luhan make an 'o' sound and see around him. Sehun is right. All of people in this room make a curious face except Jongin who didn't know much about Baekhyun and Minseok and Baekhyun himself which his face seem annoyed and dislike. Luhan smirk at his brother's face expresion. He think just wait until he meet Minseok and see what happened next since Luhan know that Baekhyun has a feeling too to Minseok. When Minseok arrived at Palace's gate, someone run to him immediately. "What is it Yifan?", Minseok ask. Yifan is like his personal assistant. He is the one who come along with Minseok when Minseok do his job. "I'm sorry My Prince. The King and The Queen are waiting for you in the throne room." "Why? They know I have a journey." "I think it's time my Prince. For you to meet The King's choice for your companion. I saw a couple of peoples before." Minseok shocked. "What?! This fast? I told him not to force me.", Minseok sigh. "Do you know who is that Yifan?" "I'm sorry my prince I don't know." Minseok only sigh and walk toward to the throne room with Yifan follow behind him. Then he get in to the throne room and bow to his father straight and not look around him. All of the people in there turn their eyes to him immediately. He and Baekhyun in the same room but now, he is Minseok, The Royal Prince, not Xiumin. He also take off his mask too. "I'm sorry abeoji, I told you I don't want to force people to marry me." Baekhyun lift his head up as soon as he heard that voice. The voice that he miss so much. He shocked when he saw Xiumin in front of him and get confused. Xiumin or Minseok, he really confused. Why Minseok look like Xiumin. "Minseok. Finally. Here meet your future husband. Mr. Byun Baekhyun." Minseok eyes widened as soon as he heard that name. He doesn't dare to look back. Is that really Baekhyun? The person who he really Love the most? But he sigh after that. He knows Baekhyun didn't like to involve to something about Royal Family and he is here because his father force him. Minseok feel sad about that. Minseok brace himself to look back and here is he. Baekhyun with shocked expresion see him. Minseok just nod at him and Baekhyun, still with confused expression nod to him back. Then he start to speak. "I'm sorry abeoji, eomoni, I have something to do. Excuse me." After Minseok leave the throne room, the whole room seem sigh together at the same time. Then the king start to speak again. "Now, three of you have to stay at the palace, the servants will take you to your room and please, be comfortable like in your own home. Some schedule will be discussed and give to you soon. For now, just rest. And just for your information, your room will beside your future husband room to make you get closer to each other. Jongin's room is beside Jongdae's, Luhan's is beside Sehun's, and Baekhyun's beside Minseok's. I hope you enjoy the palace. Oh and Baekbom, I'd like to have a word with you. Can you please stay for a minute?", The king smile at them. And the queen walk to them and hug them one by one and give her warmest smile to them. They come out from the throne room together. Three of them just wait a couple minutes in front of the throne room. Baekhyun still confused abaut all of it. He seems still doze off. But suddenly someone poke his shoulder, make him awake. "Hai. Baekhyun right? I'm Royal Prince Sungmin. Nice to meet you.", Sungmin up his hand to Baekhyun so they can shake hands. Baekhyun bow to him and get Sungmin's hand with both of his hands and shake it slow. "Yes. I'm Baekhyun. Nice to meet you too Your Highness." "Oh please, hyung just fine." Then Ryeowook come to them. "Hai Baekhyun. I'm Royal Prince Ryeowook. Finally we can meet you. It's nice to see you.", Ryeowook shake Baekhyun hand too. Baekhyun bow at him. "Nice to meet you too Your Highness." "Just like Sungmin hyung said. Just call us hyung is fine.", Both Sungmin and Ryeowook smile at him. "I'm sorry. I will adapt with that call, but right now I think I still call you politely. And if I allow to ask, What do you mean by 'finally to meet me' Prince Ryeowook? Am I have something to do to you all?", Baekhyun ask confused. "Ah about that. Sorry before Baekhyun. We all know about you and Minseok before when Minseok stay with Han's family in the East Province. So I hope you can give him a chance. But I know he won't force you, so relax.", Ryeowook said and Sungmin sigh. Then they are introduce them self to both Luhan and Jongin then leave them there with Jongdae and Sehun. Baekhyun then whispered to Luhan. But Sehun which is beside Luhan can hear him as well. "Hyung, Is Prince Minseok is.....is.." Sehun sigh and Luhan patted Baekhyun's shoulder and give him small nod and smile weakly at him. Baekhyun seems really surprise about that. So after all this time, Xiumin is a Royal Prince. Baekhyun gasped. Luhan only rub his back to help Baekhyun calm. Not long after, Sehun saw Minseok in the corner of the hallway, talking to Sungmin and Ryeowook. Then he said something. "If you want to know, just ask him. Minseok hyung's there.", Sehun point at Minseok and Baekhyun sight follow Sehun's finger. He saw Minseok there but his leg feel so heavy to step. Then Minseok turn his head and saw Baekhyun as well. His eyes meet Baekhyun eyes. For a couple of seconds they glance at each other. But Minseok quickly broke their eye contact and leave the hallway. Baekhyun doesn't know why but his heart feel hurt that Minseok broke their eye contact and leave again like that, like he is avoid Baekhyun, well He is avoid B
