Taehyung's two hands that was going for the fruits froze mid-air.

"Please" Bong said crying, she moved towards him, looking all over his body

The lady seem so shaken up so Taehyung decided to give her an answer.

"I didn't" She sagged so hard Taehyung feared she will fall over

"Oh thank the gods, thank the gods thank the gods" She repeats her eyes still runs over his face and body

"What's going on Bong?"

She takes in a deep breath tears still falling from her eyes. "I'll tell you everything but first-" she stops talking eyes fixed on the floor.

Taehyung noticed she was looking at the fruits that fell on the floor.

"Oh... fell from my hand"

"Oh no please just hold on, don't take your hands to your mouth just in case" She rushed out and run back in with a bowl of water and soap. She held it for him to wash his hands.

Taehyung complied still completely confused on what was happening.

She rushed out again with the bowl and comeback this time wearing gloves. Taehyung watch as she carefully picked all the fruits into a nylon transparent bag and dropped it in a far corner in the chamber.

She turned to him still crying. "I-i over heard Joda and two other Harlem omega talking about poisoning those fruits"

His heart drops

Thats-

"What?"

____

"I can't believe that witch will go this far" His hyung was litreally fuming.

Taehyung had sent for his brother and the general after Bong told him what she heard.

He was so shaken up he had to beg himself to breathe. Like he never imagined Joda will go this far.

"We can't do anything to her without proof, there's no proof she sent the fruits" Namjoon said with a sigh

"This is bullshit we cannot let such an evil person walk around freely, he tried to kill Tae and the baby Joon"

Taehyung let his eyes slide to where the now black rotten fruits are. Those could have been in his stomach, his baby.. that alone.. oh god!!!

"They're getting desperate, you didn't drop dead like they thought, they're trying to do it themselves so everyone can blame it on the curse that indeed you were lying"

Taehyung tightens the blanket around his body, one hand still protectively on his stomach

"Can't you talk to the king, there has to be a way he can get him out of here. He's carrying his child for crying out loud or atleast allow him to come stay with us"

Taehyung just starts crying again. That's all he's being doing

"Tae...it's ok" his hyung pulled him into a side hug.

"The king is not in the kingdom right now. And the council will not let him stay under my roof."

"Whose idea was it to bring him into the den of jealous omegas? This is ridiculous"

"I'll try to talk to the council but for now we have to keep him safe ourselves starting with-" Namjoon called for his two maids. "No more gifts food to him, anything that will go through his mouth should be prepared by both of you or his brother"

They both nods

"I'm sorry" Bong said with a cracked voice. Taehyung can see why the lady would blame her self she brought the fruits to him.

"It's not your fault Bong"

"Don't hand over his food to anyone to give to him." Namjoon continues

"His food will now be prepared in my quarter, I don't want you using the kitchen here to prepare his food again"

His maids nods

Taehyung is so grateful for Namjoon

"Taehyung listen to me, I don't want you to be scared of anything, what happened today is a clear indication that the gods are in this with you. They will keep you and your baby safe"

Taehyung nods. "Thank you general"

"You have less than a month to go. Me and your brother will do everything in our power to make sure you're safe"

____

He was now in his sixth month, the very month every one was waiting for.

Taehyung can almost smell the tension in the air, the anticipation is making him even nervous.

He tried his best to push back everything that happened and continued to stay strong for his child.

He hasn't come across Joda since everything happened, he's honestly grateful for that

The gifts increased over the month, so many for his child. The jealousy of other omegas increased along with it.

The talks are decreasing, obviously because he wasn't supposed to live this long but he did.

People who still think he's lying just believes he is going to die while trying to give birth. Expecially the omegas in Harlem. Taehyung just keeps ignoring every one of them.

Right now he was inside his chamber with his hyung who has litreally been living here now. His hyung comes in the morning and stay with him till it darks before he goes back. Sometimes he sleeps over

According to his hyung, Namjoon confessed to him few days ago.

Took them long enough. His hyung looks happy and Taehyung is happy for him.

Jin hyung found the love he believes so much in, Taehyung can't say same about himself.

"Are they not suppose to know the date" His hyung came out from bathroom with a towel drying his face.

"Hyung they are mid-wives not magicians" he chuckles shaking his head. "She said any moment from now"

The mid-wife had announced he'll give birth in his sixth month, said the child was in a position of being born any moment whatever that means.

Hence the tension in the air

"You better warn your baby not to come when I am not there with you"

Taehyung touched his stomach smiling. "You heard that pup don't come when your uncle is not close by"

His hyung chuckles moving to lie beside him.

"I swear Tae your stomach looks Scary"

His stomach is so long, his hyung wasn't even exaggerating. It's scary

"Even to me hyung" they both laughed.

"You are going to need another quarter for just keeping gifts Taehyung" His hyung said looking around.

His chamber was filled up, another empty chamber general Namjoon had arranged for him filled up too. Taehyung was not complaining

"You are definitely going to need like ten chambers when your baby is born"

Taehyung smiles, the support he's been getting so far he never expected it. He never expected people he didn't even know to be rooting for him this much. It was overwhelming.

He sniffs two seconds away from crying. He was so emotional these days it's annoying

"What's wrong?"

Taehyung shook his head offering his hyung a small smile to soothe his worry

"I'm just happy hyung, I never thought that so many will believe me"

"A lot Tae. You know I go into the village all the time, you need to hear what they say about you, how much they trust you Taehyung, they literally see you as their saviour"

"I don't even know why hyung" he smiles through his tears. "They don't even know me"

His hyung chuckles

"Tae you need to have seen yourself that day, If I was just a stranger in that crowd that day, I'm sure I would've been on the side of the ones sending you gifts now. There's nothing about you that suggested you were lying or even afraid, your scent was peaceful and stable, your voice strong and bold, your posture screamed I'm sure of my self, even after the chief priest laid the curse you didn't waver Taehyung"

Taehyung smiles

"Thank you hyung, you believed in me first, took the first step with me, walk into danger with me, for that I'll be forever grateful"

His hyung laughed

Stop talking nonsense brat.

Taehyung laughs but stops when he felt a sharp pain at the lower part of his stomach.

Oh

Jungkook was in his office trying to sort out some land aurgument documents when Joda knocked and walked in.

First he doesn't permit anyone but Namjoon in here. Not even his council members, he meets with them in the throne room, no body has any business here.

Joda has been getting on his nerves non stop. Since he moved her to the main palace she's change drastically or maybe she's always been like this.

"What are doing here Joda?"

"Your highness" she bowed. "I know I am not suppose to come here but I was getting desperate."

"You have no right whatsoever to walk in here. Our business ends in the bedroom. I do not care if the world is being burned down, you do not walk in to places you are not suppose to enter, you don't walk in to my presence just because you feel like it."

"Forgive me your highness"

She goes down on her knees. Jungkook sighs

"Stand up, what is so important that you had to come here?"

"I am desperate for you Your highness. I am a woman in love, I missed you, my soul cries out for you, my body longs for your touch"

"Joda I told you I have been busy"

"I know, but it's been months your highness"

Jungkook hums he remembers what happened the last time he was in her chamber.

"Maybe I got tired of you focusing more on my knot than pleasuring me"

Her eyes blew wide. "Your highness"

"The reason you were my favorite was because of how good you always made me feel."

"Don't say 'were' your highness please"

"But it is the truth, I always go to you because you always made me feel good but since the claim by omega Taehyung that I fathered his child you have become more focus on my knot, too focus on my knot"

"Your highness-"

"Let me ask you Joda, you believe i am the father of his child"

"No your majesty, the omega is just a lying whore."

"Leave"

"Your highness"

"Leave Joda"

She bowed and left. Jungkook will deal with the guards that let her in later

He can see how much he's change regarding beding omegas, sex has become something that doesn't even come to his mind these days. Strange strange strange.

Things were getting worst. He can't seem to concentrate on anything....like now he was so restless, he woke up today restless.

He drops his head on the wooden table in his office

Jungkook smells him before he knocked and walked in. He peered up at him

Namjoon bows, looking like he just finish running round the whole palace

"Namjoon?"

"Taehyung went into labor your majesty."
