"Jisoo?" Both, Myeong and Yoongi muttered at the same time while Jisoo smiled at them.

"After a while...Oppa?" She couldn't suppress the happiness in her tone and her happy tears are like never ending.


Myeong's P. O. V.

We were walking down a river. It wasn't a village out of his kingdom but it was this pretty and empty paths were rare things to see. Cherry blossoms everywhere, smilling children walking with their mom, A guy following a girl with flowers....all of these scenarios were pretty.

I looked at Yoongi to see his expression which didn't really failed to disappoint me. He sometimes feels like a robot. I rolled my eyes and kept on following Jisoo when the man with hoarse deep voice spoke up.

"Where are we exactly heading towards?" Yoongi said, a tint of annoyance in his voice.

Jisoo just smile in return and kept on walking teasing Yoongi,"patients brother."

Yoongi groaned. I can feel him getting frustrated every second passing by, I don't blame him for that. His sister, who ran away the day she was supposed to get married and suddenly appearing front of him. Ofcourse he's supposed to feel anxious.

"Here!" She stopped front of a Big banyan tree. In this whole village this maybe the only tree other than Cherry blossoms. There were children sitting in some branches of that tree and some were laying on it's base.

They all hold a shiny dark colour in their skin. Not only them, the people in this whole village they look so different than the rest of his kingdom.

"Kids~ greet them, they're my friends." Jisoo called out for them and they immediately hid behind the tree making Jisoo's smile drop.

"Scaring kids are the worst traits you got, sis." Yoongi joked with a smile before walking towards the kids leaving me and Jisoo alone. I just stared being unable to understand what to do. There were a Girl and a boy trying hard to prepare something and as Yoongi moved towards them they got scared seeing the scar in his face as it was terrifying for them but later when they saw Yoongi smiling they stop hiding.

We saw Yoongi murmuring something to them which made them grow closer towards him and watched him doing something with the tree branches and rope.

I couldn't hold back my smile seeing him like that. He's scary yet so kind-

"That's how Yoongi oppa was. That's how Yoongi oppa actually is." Jisoo smiled looking at the scene while I kept on standing there like a  dumbfounded woman. "Myeong, I am their teacher."

I smiled and patted her shoulder,"Great work Jisoo! I don't know who will ever be but I'm sure I'm proud of you. But why were they hiding when you greeted them?"

Jisoo sighed. "This kids are stubborn as hell Myeong-ssi. They fell sick whenever they hear my name!" She pouted while I laughed and comforted her.

But something distracted our conversation.

A stroke of laugh coming from the tree's direction. We were surprised to see the scene playing front of us.

Yoongi who was laughing with the kids who were having fun with the new Swing they made with Yoongi's help.

The side was enough to warm my heart. I admired the scenario and had a heavy desire to capture it with my phone but alas!

"Myeong...can you promise me something?" Jisoo said as I looked at her. "Please take care of Yoongi hyung and stay with him forever!"

My smile immediately dropped. "Jisoo I-"

"Please..." She pleaded.

I can never. I can't.... I'm not from here...I don't belong here! I need to go back. The reality hit me like a stone. I again looked back at the smilling Yoongi and my breathe became unusually faster. I don't know why Whenever I look at him I just became breathless and can't do anything except getting embarassed.

The day has come.
It was past four when all maids rose up along with Myeong and I-jun.
Because today is the day of Seokjin to get married to Siam's princess, Pranpriya. Everyone was busy today along with the royals. People were decorating the Royal castle while special foods were prepared by the maid's.

I-jun was trying to act unbothered as she could. But Myeong noticed her spacing out or crying secretly. Myeong could not see this sight of I-jun as she promised herself that she will not let the smiles of Seokjin and I-jun fade at any cost. Even if it costs her own smile she will gladly do that.

"Hey Mian! Where is his highness the king is present now?" I asked one of the knights close to us, to maids.

He scratched his head before licking his lips. "I'm sorry I can-"

"Mian..." Myeong held his hand with pleading eyes. "It's about I-jun. I know you're a good friend to her so can you please at least tell me where his highness is? I have a few things to discuss with him. It's very important and has three people's lives depending on it so, please...please tell me."

Mian sighed and leaned in towards my ears as he whispered,"In prince Seokjin's room. Don't tell anyone about this and make sure to accomplish your Target without getting caught." These were the last words Mian told me before walking away.

'I need to Mian. I need to...'


"I do not care what the hell you will get out of this marriage;Peace with another territory, Money, gold, deals or whatever I. Am. Not. Going. To. Marry. And it's my last word." Seokjin stubbornly crossed his hand over his chest, Flaring his nose in anger. The only thing right now running in his head was the woman's face he loved, he cared about. He wants to see her, hug her, tell her it's only her he wants but hence, the situation.

"I know you don't." Yoongi stated as he placed his foot inside Jin's room. "But if it's needed I will send people to drag you out of your room towards the wedding venue."

Jin got off his bed and walked near Yoongi. He death glared  him looking at Yoongi's soul or moreover piercing it before he punched his face. "You deserve it, Asshole!"

Every guard presented pointed their swords towards Seokjin's neck but dropped it as Yoongi signalled them not to.

Yoongi caressed his cheek which he just got punched on by his elder brother. "Leave me and my hyeong alone." They all listened to his command and left, leaving both of them alone. Yoongi smirked as commented,"Am I supposed to hit you back, Hyung?"

Jin rolled his eyes. "Stop acting like a total Douchbag. You will get Zero bitches if you continue to be a jerk."

Yoongi just got in Seokjin's bed comfortably before lying on his  back. "Who will say No to the King's face anyway?"

Jin chuckled. "Being the king isn't enough to win over a Woman's heart dear brother."

Yoongi just shrugged as he sit up straight in the bed. "You like 'that' girl, yes?"

Jin froze in his place. Many questions started to roam in his brain. Jin slowly looked at Yoongi who was intensely looking at him, waiting for his response.

"Ha!? Me and in love with a regular maid? Are you crazy?" Seokjin tried his best to play it cool while Yoongi narrowed his eyes.

"I never mentioned her being a maid..." Jin bit his tongue while Yoongi smirked. "Even if you weren't getting married, would it be possible for you to marry her?" Yoongi hit the nail making Seokjin clench his jaw.

"Out." He growled. "GET OUT, before I forget that you're the ruler of our estate!" Maybe it was not Seokjin's threat that made him walk out of his room but his state did.

Yoongi never wanted to harm Seokjin's feelings like this but he couldn't possibly imagine him parting with the Woman his brother dearly love. This society won't accept it. This is a harsh world where fragile hearted people like Seokjin aren't allowed but people like Yoongi is.


Running  with the speed of cheetah (is what she thinks she's doing) Myeong tried to reach prince Seokjin's room as fast as she could.

But when she saw the King himself coming out of his room she lost control over her legs and eventually fell with Yoongi on the ground.

"Ouch~" Myeong shrink rubbing her head which was banged against Yoongi's chest while Yoongi stared at her in disbelief.

"I'm the one who should feel pain, you literally fell on me." Yoongi nonchalantly stated before getting up as well Myeong did.

Myeong pouted though just ignored the situation and tried to focus on the ongoing trouble. "What kind of a brother you are!" Her tone was rough as she started to close the distance between her. "How can you let Jin marry the daughter of a traitor? Who is planning to take over the throne in the name of marriage?" She kept stepping closer as she continued her interrogation not letting him talk. "I know you are a jerk but I thought you at least love your brother but here-"

"Shut up." Yoongi spoke with a warning lingering tone towering Myeong, now he was the one stepping closer. "Do not forget you are just a maid.." Yoongi glared at Myeong trying to threaten her but like always Myeong didn't backed away she stayed at her position and glared back at him.

"Even a low-key being like me knows the right wrong better than a king like you will ever acknowledge." Myeong fired back making Yoongi a bit stunned. He didn't expected that. "Prince Seokjin and I-jun are in-"

"I know." Yoongi cut her off. "So? He is the crown prince of this estate. If anything happens to me he'll takeover the throne. Then, that maid, if she marries him will this narrow mindset people will ever let them live happily?" Myeong couldn't make out what Yoongi was trying to say as she kept silent. "Do you know why a king have so many queens? Because he can't be attached to ones. We can't let the enemy know about our weak spot. Giving our heart to one person meaning them becoming out weakness." He stated which made Myeong fall deep in thoughts. 'He is not wrong...' she thought to herself but after few seconds she pulled herself together.

"Is the king that weak?" She spoke, a numbness followed in her tone .

"Pardon?"

"I said, that the kings are that weak that they can't even fight for one person?" She looked at Yoongi who's lips were now zipped. "If they cannot protect the person they love how  can the responsibility of thousands and more people he handed over them?" This questions were straight slap to Yoongi's face. He never thought like this. Was he this weak to not protect the one he love?

Myeong chuckled,"Making someone your weakness happens automatically, no one can do anything about it. You'll also learn it once. It can't be help. Love is a curse, Your highness!" Myeong stated her last words and Yoongi just rolled his eyes before grabbing her hand and dragging her to a corner. He softly pushed Myeong against the wall before closing the distance between them.

Myeong face immediately became so red that she has to close her eyes. But she didn't felt anything on her lips as Yoongi was whispering something into her ear.

"Princess?" San gently knocked the door of Lisa's room as the wedding need to take place soon. "Princess can you open the door-"

And he was pulled inside her room greeted by her revealing outfit. She was wearing a blouse that wouldn't cover her shoulder and cleavage area. And her skirt which was long yet started with her lower stomach making so much skin to reveal.

San felt embarassed and turned around. "P-princess can y-you get ready first? Everyone is waiting for you in the venue." He spoke avoiding staring at her while Pranpriya let out a sad chuckle.

"Do you think I have my will in this marriage?" Princess spoke while San felt bad for her hearing her sad tone but he couldn't do anything. He's just a knight of the royal family.

"It cannot be helped, princess. Sometimes we don't have choices..." San stated while Pranpriya started to tear up.

"B-but I have.." she stood infront of San again who just looked down at his feet trying to respect her as he should. "You can help me with it"

San's head snapped upwards as his soul nearly left his body. He shook his head,"I can't. I can't help you to escape, my lady, I am loyal to our highness the king."

"I am not telling you to help me escape." She said as she started to step closer towards him while he just kept backing up. His back eventually hit the leg making him fall on the bed. Pranpriya also crawled on top of him. "Take my purity." She muttered while caressing San lips.

San's eyes widened as he pushed her away, straightening himself up. "HAVE YOU GONE MAD?" He shouted feeling extremely anxious by this woman's acting.

"What do you expect from a girl who is forced to leave her nation after everyone made her taught to be a worrier for her own Nation. They told me a girl can't rule!" She cried out while San pitied her but eventually find her plan stupid.

"But...you can't just-"

"Fine! You don't want to help me do you? Then I will...will ..." She looked here and there but couldn't find something when her eyes fell on the sword attached with San's waist. She tried to take it out while San immediately pull it back with his force. "give it to me that's the only way I can...can...be independent!" She cried while San had no idea what to do. He sighed and embraced Pranpriya and she kept weeping onto her chest.

San, who was dedicated to his work, first time felt this much helpless. His heart was telling him to help her out but he couldn't.

Pranpriya, who was born in the royals and taught the lessons of a ruler but is now a bargain for another estate as she is the "Daughter" of her kingdom, Siam.

These feelings of the same pitifulness maybe the reason they find peace in eachother's embrace.
