Arthur barged into the youngest prince's room "WHAT IS CAUSING YOU TO BE THIS LATE , ARE YOU NOT FEELING WELL?-"

The youngest got shivers down his nape at the sudden atmosphere drop.

He hesitantly turned around and looked at his older brother whose eyes were narrowed , dark and cold , at that moment luvian knew that Arthur is already far away and blind.

Arthur furiously began to suffocate xi with deft.

the tiger let out a cough then reached for his neck helplessly trying to pull away the nonexistent hands that were wrapped around his neck , he closed his eyes tightly, and a couple of tears traveled their way down his face.

"B-brother-.." Luv panicked and held onto xi then called in a small voice.

He then swiftly transformed xi back to normal , as xi transformed the clothes that were custom-sewn for him ripped into pieces and scattered on the floor , the tiger quickly galloped his way towards his master before becoming invisible.

The youngest's flushed face became slightly relieved.

"WHY ARE YOU PROTECTING HIM?" Arthur questioned with quivering eyes as he slowly approached Luv.

"Big brother , Please calm down first.." luvian Quietly said before putting his hands against Arthur's chest stopping him from coming any closer.

"Don't..misunderstand.."

Arthur paused and looked down at his Younger brother's face.

"I can't..-" Luv wobbled and lightly gasped for air 'I can't..breathe.'

"You can't?"

Arthur inspected the Younger's face "You don't Look too well."

Luvian clumsily walked his way towards the window , opening it with trembling hands he recklessly leaned his head out and breathed as he felt his head becoming light in waves.

Arthur strode towards luvian whom was about to fall out and grabbed him tightly.

He cussed at himself "it's all because of that dumb cat." He lightly patted the youngest's cheek. "Luv."

the youngest opened his two-toned eyes slightly "..Father..?"

Arthur quickly laid luvian towards him and unbuttoned the top of his shirt.

"CALL THE MEDIC ." He ordered.

"They said , everything seemed stable the cause most likely was dehydration, exhaustion , pressure or shock , your majesty."

"Who are they planning to fool."

"there's definitely something suspicious about it." Said Arthur.

"Fire them , and look into it."

"Yes , your majesty."

—————————

Luvian opened his eyes and found himself surrounded by darkness.

"A dream?" He blinked.

"..."

"Or not.."

Said a voice.

Luv turned around startled but not surprised.

They questioned.

He looked down "I..I don't know.."

He then muttered to himself "may god revive me if life is what's good for me , and take my life if death is what's good for me."

Then a couple of objects appeared floating in front of him.

A rose , a watch , a book and a paint brush.

Luv paused thinking to himself.

"I choose the darkness."

——————————

"The ones with the symbols..." he muttered in his sleep.

Arthur stood up off the chair.

"Your highness.." the butler shed a sweat as he bowed then stood behind his master.

"Lock the palace, no guests or outsiders allowed." He clenched his fists.

"Yes, your majesty." The butler bowed and went to inform the rest.

"Mmph-" Arthur covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed.

'Even if it means disobeying god itself.'

He looked up "He's mine." He said after throwing the bloody handkerchief in the bin.

Arthur held his only brother close.
