"Are you tired? I can replace you."

Taeyong chuckled as he laid the cup of tea down on Jaehyun's table with the tray under his arm, "I'm fine, Yoonoh. Do you need anything else?"

"You've been working for the whole morning. Take a rest," Jaehyun changed the topic. He took a sip on his tea and laying it down on the small plate that was paired with it.

"I'm used to this. Thank you for your concern but--"

"Come on. Take a seat, Taeyong and I'll handle this," the alpha already stood up from his seat and pushed the omega down on the chair.

"But Yoon--"

Jaehyun showed his dimpled smile at Taeyong, "I'll handle, Taeyong."

Following the man with his eyes, he couldn't help but smile and blush. He can't deny how attractive the man was. He's charming at their first meeting, even though things got out of hand. He couldn't somehow take his eyes off of him. It sounds cliche and something that came from the fairytales Taeyong never heard of, but he didn't know things could happen in a funny and an unexpected way.


Yoonoh looked like a prince that came from a fairytale. Despite not having any fairytales in his childhood since he never had any medias like a television or radio. Taeyong had been busy working for a good cause to even read or hear fairytales.


"Do you need anything?"

Taeyong immediately snapped out of his thoughts and lifted his head up, "Shouldn't I be the one asking you that?"

Jaehyun leaned over the table with his hands on the table, "I'm the one serving you so it's my turn asking you that."

The omega sighed, "That's enough. Give me my apron--"

"Let me do the work--"

"My brother will get upset if I'm letting others do my work, Yoonoh!"

Jaehyun shrugged, "I'm just letting you rest, alright?"

"I'm sure you didn't come here to work."


"What if I did?"


Jaehyun smirked at how Taeyong looked so defeated. The omega just pushed his lower lip out and the alpha thought it was the cutest thing he saw ever in his life. Can't he just take Taeyong home? Being in the middle of their conversation, gasps and mutters were heard as the bell chime with a very familiar and important man inside of the humble shop.

Taeyong and Jaehyun looked at the entrance door direction and both of them had different emotions.

"Lord Kim is here!" Taeyong uttered.

"Doyoung?" Jaehyun might've said the man's too loud for Taeyong to look at him curiously. The alpha looked back and bats his eyes.

"You call him by his name?" the omega whispered.

Jaehyun hung his jaw open, "Uhm, I'll be behind the counter--"


The prince excused himself and tried to not catch the lord's attention. As soon as he managed to reach the counter, he opened the door to the kitchen to hide. Forgetting that someone was inside, Jaehyun saw the baker of the shop. He just realized that it was Taeyong's brother.


"Who--"

Before the baker could even speak, Jaehyun cuts him off.

"Before you ask my name and where did I came from, Doyou--I mean, Lord Kim is here and I think you might want to see him," Jaehyun said for an excuse.

The baker immediately dropped the wooden spoon and the bowl. He even dusted his apron to clean himself before he goes out of the kitchen, leaving Jaehyun inside. The man sighed in relief that Doyoung didn't see him.


Since he is a prince, all officials and royal families know him. If Doyoung finds out that he's here, then he'll report to his kingdom and finds him. If that happens, he'll be miserable for the rest of his life. Doyoung is somewhat his foe--they always have death glares, arguments whenever they have meetings and they even hate looking at each other. He just always argues with Jaehyun's decision ever since he was announced to be king. Right now, he doesn't want any scenes.


"Oh, Lord Kim, we are glad to welcome you to the shop," Yuta greeted with a nice bow and smile.

Doyoung gave him a smirk and shook hands with the baker. Looking at his brother, he was in awe.

"Welcome, Lord Kim. How are you today?" Taeyong asked with a smile on his face. He shook hands with the man as well and sticks his forehead against Doyoung's hand as respect.

Doyoung removed his hand from Taeyong's grip. He held Taeyong's chin with his fingertips and pushed the omega's head up to look at him. The lord seemed amused by the omega.

"Lee Taeyong, isn't it?"

The omega nodded.


Yuta, beside them, cleared his throat to catch their attention. Doyoung looked at the baker and gave out a chuckle. He left Taeyong and asked Yuta for a talk, alone. Both alphas walked out of the shop and Taeyong was left there curious as to what was happening. He just watched Yuta and Doyoung go into the luxurious carriage.


"What do you think?" Doyoung asked.

Yuta cleared his throat, "What do you mean, my lord?"

"About me and Taeyong."

"O-Oh. My lord, as much as I want to let him go, he's still new to these things."

Doyoung scoffed, "I can give him everything."

"I know. But I can't just put Taeyong into something so sudden."


"That's why, I'm giving you and your family time to tell him."


Yuta sighed, "My lord--"

"I can give you whatever you want. Get your family a new house, a new business and wealth for your dear omega brother. You don't need that petty farm and fields. I can make you live and get you out of the dirt."


The alpha furrowed his eyebrows, "I'm sorry, My lord. If you fooled my father by your wealth, well you're quite full of yourself. I won't let you marry my brother."


Doyoung scoffed, "We'll see about that."


The alpha gets out of the carriage with furrowed eyebrows. Taeyong, who was waiting for his brother, stood up from his seat and walked towards his brother. He still has his smile plastered on his face, waiting for something about what him and the lord talked about a while ago.

"So?" Taeyong asked.

Yuta chuckled, trying to hide his anger from his brother.

"Just go back to work, hyung."
