Blue-blooded royal Kim Seokjin who just turned 20 was now in the market for a spouse was the most sought out bachelor in the kingdom. The future king was handsome and had a great personality that he was well loved and liked by all.
However, none were successful in capturing his heart. Unknown to all except for his parents and his other siblings, Seokjin was cursed by an evil warlock to die on his 30th birthday. The King and the Queen had tried to find numerous ways to lift the curse but it all failed.
The evil warlock gotten into a fierce battle before with the kingdom. He had devised ways to assassinate the king and enslave the people but the King and his soldiers have put up a great fight and won. In revenge, the warlock cursed the Queen's unborn son and future heir to the throne to die on his 30th birthday.
Because of this, Seokjin learned to keep people at bay. He had lots of friends but when he begins to feel something more, he would slowly distance himself and back away from the possibility of love. He wanted to save himself the pain of knowing love and losing it.
Instead, he spent the next 8 years, travelling the world, learning new languages, acquiring new skills and simply trying to savor life before his own would be taken away from him.
He was all but content until on his 29th birthday celebration, Prince Hoseok introduced him to someone. A man with big doe eyes and a bunny smile. His name was Jeon Jungkook and Seokjin felt it, Cupid's arrow and all that, he felt the pull of fate. He was all wrong for him but he could not help it. He should not enjoy his company too much nor fall for his giggles and hearty laughs but Seokjin found himself doing all those and more on that night.
Seokjin asked him to dance and dance the night away was what they did. His siblings Namjoon and Taehyung kept throwing him concerned looks but it did nothing to faze the admiration he had for Jungkook.
They cornered him when Jungkook left to get some drinks for both of them.
"Hyung, this is not good," Namjoon whispered. Taehyung nodded his head while Seokjin rolled his eyes.
"We get it, he's cute but this is so unlike you. You had always been cautious but this, this is madness! Mother saw you both and was alarmed enough to make sure we talk some sense to you!"
Seokjin brushed off their words. He was a grown man and if he wanted to start something with Jungkook, it's none of anybody's business.
"Look, I just want to be friends with him, okay?" he reasoned out.
Taehyung scoffed at his words, "You both nearly kissed while dancing!"
"That, that's not true!"
Of course, it was. When Seokjin held Jungkook in his arms while they were dancing to a ballad, he got mesmerized by the stars in Jungkook's eyes. His lips beckoned to him and as each of their steps slowed down, Seokjin could not help but pull him closer and closer until Yoongi twirled Hoseok and bumped into them, destroying the moment.
