"I was with him then I-I..It's my fault!!! I shouldn't ha--"
Xiao Zhen collapsed but enough for Qi Feng to catch him "Your majesty, please calm down" he said as he supported the second prince towards the soft cushion seat while two servants quickly handed him water.
The door opened widely, spitting Zi Yuzuo with his glazing red crimson eyes. "Gather all the royal guards!" he screamed which made the servants flinched in fear "I will let you rot in the dungeon if you didn't bring him back right now!!"
Xiao Zhen saw how Zi Yuzuo was so rageed because his slave is missing. He couldn't believe that the Prince would take such measures just for Wei Shin. He ran towards him and clung into his arms "P-Please calm down, i-it's my f-fault" he exclaimed like he was going to cry.
Zi Yuzuo didn't reply instead he glanced at Qi Feng "Kneel down!" he ordered
Qi Feng then quickly kneeled down and lowered his head, Zi Yuzuo draw his sword and put it on the male's shoulders "I, Zi Yuzuo , the third Prince of Rosalia Kingdom are now ordering General Feng in my power to bring that slave back before sunset, any failure will lead to death.." he ordered with a voice full of authority
Qi Feng clenched his fist "I, Qi Feng, the royal commander will now commence this mission" he said biting his lower lip. This is what he was waiting for, he will never let anything happen to Wei Shin, he's willing to take the risk just to save him.
Xiao Zhen couldn't believe what he was witnessing right now. A royal command? For that mere slave? There are so many slaves out there, he can buy anyone he likes and replace it if he feels bored. "W-Why?!" He exclaimed "Y-Your taking this t-too m-much!" He tightened the grip on Zi Yuzuo's arms.
Zi Yuzuo gave him a cold look "I was too confident to let him go with you...You should learn to take responsibility" he sneered to Xiao Zhen as he turned his back.
"Y-Yuzuo!! W-Wait!!"
It was too late,he was already left in the room. He slid down in dismay and disappointment. He couldn't believe that Zi Yuzuo would react like that for a mere slave. Xiao Zhen clenched his fist and gritted his teeth "Wei Shin" he uttered

"Crap! Is this kidnapping?!"
Wei Shin took a step back, thinking that he needed to escape. He looked from left to right,the alley was narrow and at the back of him was a dead end wall.
"Oh! Hello there" one of them walked towards Wei Shin and clenched his jaw "You seem very expensive, just from your clothes I can see that you're one of those royal slaves" he said with a grin
"Ling, stop it...We're just ordered to sell him,not to hurt him" One of them scolded the Ling guy which made him release Wei Shin. "Tch! Fine!"
"Who ordered you?!!" Wei Shin used all the courage to yelled that
The three men looked at him and laughed themselves out "It's none of your business, your mouth were too trashy for a slave" one of them sneered
"Cover his mouth and eyes" one of them ordered
Two of them moved and quickly did what they've been told. It seems like the tall one was their leader.
Wei Shin struggled from them as he kicked one of them but then they're too fast to grab him back and throw him on the wall again. One of them accidentally pulled his tail which made Wei Shin whine.
"You have the talent to seduce people by moaning?" one of them slapped his face. "I really wanted to try you but we weren't ordered to do that" the man with big arms said with a grin on his face.
"Hmmm!!!!! Uhhhhmmm!!!!!!" Wei Shin yelled under the cloth covering his lips. He tried to yanked his wrist but the rope was too tight and it's delivering him some soreness.
"Bring him..let's go" their leader said
Wei Shin felt like he was being carried on shoulders because he quickly felt dizzy the moment he felt his head levitated down. If he was being carried like that he can run since his legs weren't tied up.
He swayed his legs in the air and gave the one carrying him a kick.
"Nghh!!!!"
Wei Shin groaned when he fell down, his head hit the rocky ground so hard and he felt something dripping from his forehead. Is it blood? He can't see a thing, it was so dark. His wrists were swelling up from the thick rope wrapped around it.
[It's so painful!!!]
"Hmmm!!!!!!" He yelled once more under the restraints. He was feeling dizzy and any time from now he'll collapse. He needed at least to open up his eyes.
Wei Shin heard a familiar voice, he couldn't recognize who it was,but his voice was soft and gentle,like a knight. He heard some screams and before he could totally lost his consciousness, a warm embrace enveloped him fully "I finally found you" his knight uttered
***
Familiar scent invaded his nostrils.It was something he quickly recognized the moment he blinked his eyes. He wasn't wrong, his golden hair and his red crimson eyes were looking straight to him. It was blurry, like an illusion.
Wei Shin then roamed his sight and saw the familiar place "What happened? Did someone save me?" He uttered inside his mind. He was still dizzy and anytime from now he will fall into slumber.
A warm hand cupped his cheeks,gently and softly. He saw two pitiful eyes closer to him. He recognized his face "Y-Yuzuo…" Wei Shin mumbled "Am I seeing things right?" he thought
Wei Shin let his palm caress his face, it was swollen and still painful. He got no strength left inside of him. Those bad guys really beat him badly.
His eyelids started to fall and before he could cope up what's happening, a warm kiss sealed his pale lips. It turned into a deep kiss, letting their tongues intertwined. Wei Shin gasped between their breaths, he was going to faint.
The figure in front of him caught his body the moment he fell down. "I will never let you go again from my embrace" he mumbled
