Chapter 11: Bones
"To thrive in life you need three bones. A wishbone. A backbone and a funny bone."
-Reba McEntire
You ran a hand through your h/l, h/c hair, a tired sigh escaping your lips as you stared at yourself in the clear mirror that was before you.
You had changed out of your robes from earlier into something more...liberating.
You now wore baggy, black trousers that Hoseok had lent you, they were entirely too big for you, but you managed to fix that small error by wrapping a long piece of material around your waist, keeping it secure.
Your top half was covered by a thin, white shirt that wrapped around your waist, tying in the front. You were definitely relieved that Hoseok had thought to lend you these clothes, as you certainly would not be able to train with heavy robes weighing you down.
You smiled to yourself, humming a quiet tune as you pulled your hair back from your face.
Today had been an amazing day.
You rarely ever had days like this...Days when everything seemed to go just right..
First, you woke up to find that Grace also existed in this realm, and from what you could tell, she liked you...Then you met Taehyung, who was not at all like his stupid brother, you got to play in the water with Jin and laugh like you haven't laughed in a long time...And if that wasn't enough, you finally got to meet the Namjoon of this world, who was especially understanding and nice.
And now you were about to go and meet Hoseok so he could begin to teach you more...
The perfect end to a perfect day.
A sudden knock on your door interrupted your train of thought, smile widening as you approached the sliding entrance.
It was probably just Hoseok coming to see if you were ready for your lesson.
The two of you had agreed that you were to learn combat in secret. Hoseok didn't want anyone to know of his past, and he surely didn't want anyone to find out that he was now tutoring a woman on the art of battle. You respected his wishes, you didn't exactly want everyone in your business either... So both of you decided to only practice under the cover of night...keeping yourselves hidden from the rest of the world.
Your smile never left your lips as you slid the door open.
"Alright, I'm ready H-"
"Oracle."
Your heart jumped in fright at the deep voice that filled your ears, blue eyes slowly scanning over the man in front of you as you swallowed hard.
Jungkook glared down at your form, his arms crossed over his chest as his nostrils flared in anger.
Uh oh.
"Y/n...Actually." You corrected him, smile falling into a stern look at you returned his glare.
He quirked an eyebrow before pushing past you and walking into your room, not even sparing you a second glance.
Your eyebrows furrowed in annoyance.
"What are you doing?" You snapped. "Get out."
He only raised an eyebrow at that, his arms uncrossing as he suddenly gripped your wrist harshly, forcing your body closer to his.
"You dare to give me orders?" He growled angrily. "After the way you behaved?"
You rolled your eyes, pulling your wrist away from his grip and taking a step backwards.
"Yes." You deadpanned. "I do. Now, get out."
A gasp escaped your lips as your body was suddenly pulled forwards with brute force. Jungkook spun you around, until your back slammed against the front of his body. His right hand gripped both of your wrists, keeping them bound behind your back as he free hand wrapped around your waist, keeping you pushed up against him.
"You will not talk to me that way." He whispered into your ear.
You shuddered at the dangerous tone in his voice, body going rigid under his harsh touch.
"This attitude that you insist on having is becoming bothersome." He stated.
"I could say the same for you." You countered with darkened eyes.
Jungkook squeezed your wrists tighter, his grip becoming very painful very quickly.
You bit your lip to keep yourself from whimpering at the feeling. You could swear that you could feel your bones beginning to snap under the pressure he was applying.
"You disobeyed me today." He growled in your ear. "I looked like a fool in front of everyone."
"So-So nothing out of the ordinary?"
You knew that talking that way to him was not at all the best thing to do, considering his current state of anger, but you couldn't just allow yourself to be walked all over. You were done being a doormat.
A strangled cry left your mouth as his grip only tightened further. You could feel the bones in your wrists beginning to separate from his uncontrolled strength. If he wanted to...He could snap your wrists in two and break your hands.
"You will learn to shut that mouth of yours, or I shall shut it for you." He snarled. "My patience with you is wearing thin...Next time I summon you, you will come...or I will break every bone in your body...one by one. Do you understand?"
Your chest heaved as you struggled to contain your emotions, tears of anger already beginning to cloud your vision over.
"N-No. I'm not your servant and I am certainly not your pet!" You roared. "You- Your empty threats don't scare me-"
Your words were cut off as a pain-filled scream left your lips, body shaking in panic and agony as Jungkook finally lost all his composure, squeezing harder and harder...until your left wrist snapped, the bone removing itself from the joint at the insane amount of pressure.
You couldn't stop yourself from letting out a pained yelp. The pain was almost unbearable.
The young Emperor released you, tossing you onto the floor as he glared hard at you.
Your chest heaved as you instantly moved to cradle your broken wrist, hot tears flowing down your cheeks as your blue eyes scanned over the bruised flesh that had already begun to swell.
Jungkook only smirked, lowering himself to your level, eyes glistening with amusement as he watched you instantly try to scoot away from him, kicking your legs desperately.
He gripped your hair, pulling your back to him.
You hissed in pain, doing your best to keep weight off of your injured hand.
"I can assure you..my threats are anything but empty." Jungkook spoke into your ear. "Consider this a warning, Y/n."
You shivered as your name spilled from his parted lips.
"I will not be disobeyed again." He growled. "When I summon you...You come...or else next time I will break your legs to keep you from running away from me."
You swallowed hard, as he slowly pulled away from you, dark iris' finding yours as his hand gently moved to lift your delicate chin, thumb gently stroking the apple of your tear-stained cheeks.
"Do you understand?"
Your eyes hardened at his words.
dO YoU uNdErStAnD?
Please.
You tamed a dragon, you defeated a freaking god and you looked fabulous while doing it. Who did this boy think he was talking to you like that? You were not going to be weak anymore. You were not going to submit to the psychopath that stood before you.
You have been through too much to let this child defeat you. You had endured worse things than a broken wrist...You had endured dragon fire, an undead army, and a psychotic, perverted king. And yet this moron thought that you were going to throw all of that away just because he broke a bone?
You almost snorted.
Yeah right.
You raised an eyebrow at him.
"Screw you."
Jungkook's eyes widened at your words and the tone in which you delivered them, clearly he was not expecting such an answer from you, especially after the injury he had already delivered to you.
His look of surprise quickly faded back into his hard glare.
"What did you just say?" He snarled.
Your face hardened into a look of determination.
"I said: Screw. You."
The Emperor before you instantly moved forwards, hand already reaching for your other wrist.
"I guess I'll just have to teach you another lesson, Y/n."
Yeah, That'll be the day.
Without hesitation, you raised your hands, ramming your elbows into the side of his neck as hard as you could, trying to push to agonizing pain in your wrist to the back of your mind.
Jungkook let out a pained yelp as his body fell forward onto the wooden floor.
You moved away from him, instantly standing to your feet to get the upper hand on the man who had just caused you so much pain.
The dirty blond tried to regain his composure, not wanting you to have any power over him.
But you beat him to it, reaching under one of the numerous pillows on your bed and grabbing the small dagger Hoseok had given you to defend yourself.
Jungkook's eyes widened as you climbed on top of him, straddling his waist as you held the cold metal of the dagger against his throat.
He struggled underneath you, but you didn't care, watching as the blade began to slide his skin.
He instantly stopped at the feeling of his flesh being severed. Clearly he didn't think you would have the guts to actually hurt him...But you did.
"This-This is treason!" He screamed from under you. "You-You'll be put to deat-"
You delivered a hard smack to his face, wincing at the pain in your wrist.
"If you don't shut up, I will kill you." You growled angrily, trying your best not to let your wrath over-take you.
Jungkook swallowed at your words, remaining silent as you continued.
"Now you listen to me, Jeon Jungkook." You said slowly, leaning your face closer to his. "Whatever crap you're used to pulling with women....It isn't going to work on me. I am not like other women...You cannot even begin to fathom the things I have seen-the things I have experienced... If you think that you can just push me around and walk all over me you are terribly mistaken."
You chest heaved as you ranted, eyes watching as Jungkook blinked in surprise.
"I have no allegiance to you, Jeon." You spat. "You may summon me all you wish, but I will come when I feel like it."
You pushed the blade harder against his throat, causing him to wince.
"You remember this." You silently demanded. "Remember how you were bested by a woman. Remember how I held your life in my hands, and remember how I spared you. Let this be a lesson.."
You stood to your feet, sheathing your blade away in your trousers, eyeing the man on the ground.
"Stop acting like a child every time you don't get your way. Grow up and learn to take it like a man...That is the only way you can truly rule your people.. If you continue to act like this, someone else will rise against you..
And they will take everything away from you."
