Knock, Knock, Knock

"Young master, there are letters from Lady Elizabeth that just arrived this morning"

I waited patiently right outisde of the Young Master's room, The door creaks open, only to reveal half of his body and his face hidden with his white mask. "Burn it" With a husky and cold voice, I nodded as a response. "As you wish" I said and left right away.

Listen & Obey

Two rules that I, a Royal Servant can follow, I must always listen to what Young Master says and obey them without giving him a discomfort expression or even a words of complains. That is how I get to save my own life after serving him for 7 years, but there is one rule that I should never, ever disobey.

Always stay by his side.

There isn't any much reason why the Young Master chosed me as his new Royal Servant, But he said that I looked like someone who will stay loyal to a fault that was only it and He gave me this job, because Demons are the rules in this world I am living in.

Demons are above the humans, they consider us as a person who belongs to the lower class, a person who lives in the slum.

"Mr. Kim goodmorning, is the young master up yet?"Seulgi said as she sweeps the ground that was covered with leaves since it was autumn already, I nodded. "He is, you should hurry and bring him his breakfast" I said gesturing Seulgi to leave, She immediately drop the broom and run towards the entrance of the kitchen, When I saw her gone I immediately brought out the 5 letters Lady Elizabeth sent to the young master.

"Poor Lady Elizabeth..." I mumble, the flames that were put up so the leaves could be cleaned easily was right infront of me, I threw in the letters at the fire one by one, I pitied Lady Elizabeth. She was someone who was in engage with the young master, She showed everyone how overjoyed she was, Lady Elizabeth probably never did cross her mind that the young master never showed her much interest.

Lady Elizabeth was a oblivious woman, Young Master is ruthless, I can tell because I'm always by his side, young master is mysterious. He gets out if he wants to eat or read a book in a cabin that was built deep in the dark forest, young master only has the access to enter the dark forest while I wait for him outside.

When I went back inside the Manor, I walked up at the stairs that were covered with a red carpet only to see Seulgi waiting patiently outside of young master's room. "naughty as always...young master is such a brat making Seulgi wait outside for his own entertainment" I thought and walk towards her, I knock on the door three times. "young master, you need to at least eat your breakfast"I said with a voice that was loud enough to be heard but I stayed as calm as I can be, I heard a groan from the inside. I chuckle and glance at Seulgi who couldn't stop shaking,"I admire your courage Seulgi, I'll take it from here" I said to Seulgi as I patted her head, Seulgi sobs and wipes her tears.

|| AUTHOR POV. ||

"t-thank you Mr. Kim you're way too kind....have a good day Mr. Kim" Seulgi said and immediately leave as her heels made clicking sound until it fades away, Seokjin sigh and look behind him to see the door wide open and the young master standing shirtless in front of him with his white mask on.

"young master, did you find it amusing?"Seokjin said with a straight face, He entered his room to see it dark as always and a messy bed as ever. Seokjin placed his breakfast on the table and head over to the curtains as he spread it open to let some sunlight in, hearing the young master click his tongue, Seokjin could only smile in secret.

"what is this?"Jungkook said swirling the pumpkin soup with a spoon,"It's pumpkin soup with scrambled eggs and garlic bread"Seokjin said as he neatly placed the pillow in order and spread the blanket while brushing it with his hands to flatten it, Jungkook frowned and sat on his chair.

"I said I wanted to eat meat for breakfast"
Jungkook said glaring at his royal servant who paid no attention to his demand,"I may listen and obey your wishes young master but your father strictly told me to keep you healthy and please, meat will be served for lunch so please be patient young master"Seokjin said with his calm voice, when it comes to health, Seokjin gets strict and must always watch out for the young master's health because the first time He met him, Jungkook was lifeless and only ate what he wanted but all of that changed when he became Jungkook's royal servant.

Jungkook groaned, He then removed his white mask that used to cover his soft delicate face, his golden eyes reflected on the soup as it glows in a beautiful way, Seokjin spread a smile to see it once again.

"it's beautiful...."

"what do you mean?"

"your eyes are beautiful young master...."
