Just Bad Luck || ENGLISH VERSION II ON PAUSE

Chapter 4

Ren... "Takashi!" 

The aforementioned god turned his gaze to the being from whom the voice came; it was the youngest prince, Ren. He looked cheerful and his eyes were bright as the sun. According to their myth, the prince is represented by the sun and his older brother by the moon. And seeing him physically, he can understand why. They were polar opposites in every way. 

Takashi... "Dear prince... Is there anything I can assist you with?" 

His answer was formal as always, although both princes had already repeated to him on different occasions that it was not necessary, but Takashi liked to comply with the protocol of attention to the royal family. 

Ren... "I've already told you several times, a bow is more than enough. Hearing that greeting all day long already annoys me. Changing the subject, do you want to have a drink with me?" 

With that said, a maid approached with a tray in her hands, on which was a bottle of probably the eldest god's favourite liquor. He wasn't surprised at all, this activity had already become quite common on weekends. Both gods were like best friends, literally Takashi was Ren's brother's fiancé, it wouldn't be strange if they were already so close. 

Takashi... "Of course, the week has been stressful, to be honest"

------------------------------------

Several hours passed. To be exact, 6 hours had passed, and it was almost midnight, but both of them forgot that they had pending things. The younger god had to go see his fiancé, and the prince had to organize a welcome for his beloved general. The effect of the alcohol almost completely faded when he heard a scream from Rei at the door of the place and at that moment Takashi remembered what he had asked him, he was in trouble. 

Ren... "R-rei, sorry... I-I forgot-" 

Rei... "We're leaving, and the maids will take care of my brother" 

Before he could react, the eldest prince already had his fiancé in his arms, and they were leaving while the eldest gave orders to the maids to take care of his twin. That day, they had had too much to drink, apparently.

------------------------------------

Takashi... "D-don't go... please" 

His voice was weak from all the alcohol he had drunk a few hours ago. The general was in Rei's bed with the aforementioned at his side, he was about to leave for a meeting, and he was trying with his little strength to make the older man stay. 

Rei... "I promise I'll be back soon, it won't be a long meeting" 

Takashi... "But-" 

He received a kiss on the lips that he didn't have the chance to say anything; it was a short kiss, however with a lot of love. He didn't have time to react, and the prince had already left the place. 

Takashi... /Fool... you owe me one/

------------------------------------

Rei arrived at the place of the supposed meeting, a small, well-decorated room with a large gold mirror in the centre. He had already anticipated this, and his brother, the king, wanted to have a talk. The mirror went completely dark and little by little the thick darkness began to disappear, clearing the mirror, revealing the being who wanted to communicate with the prince. It was Shin, his face was covered with a blue cloth. The colours of the cloths he used to hide his face have meaning, and the blue meant that the matter was a little important and required a quick response, according to the king.
