...Flower of Evil...

Rumour, something very dangerous. It can wreck you,crush you and destroy you. People never know how their words affect someone else until you yourself have to experience the mental torture. One word can give the pain of thousands of years.

The war was almost done with the help of his highness Yoongi. The victory was surely in their hands and everyone worked very hard every passing day. The seven Princes and the princess went to the war and fought with their lives. During the war,Iseul showed her vicious and murderous skills. Everyone feared her blade. A cursed blade which had no limit.

When Queen heard about her vicious skills,she was anxious. Various political parties were already trying to talk to the King about revealing her true identity to the people. She was even more angered when she saw King's pleased expression hearing Iseul's actions in the battle field. King even had paid a visit to Iseul's sick mother which was a red flag to the Queen.

Queen was inside her bed Chambers, thinking how to pull Iseul's leg. She couldn't let her King to reveal Iseul's true identity. If Iseul was to gather force and claimed the throne,then everything will be over. Everyone will die according to the prophecy. The throne belonged to her son and no one else. She never wanted to give up on her dream.

She sighed in frustration. She needed to do something. Something which might tarnish Iseul's character.

"Servant Hong,come in",she ordered.

A woman in her mid forties entered. She was bowing her head like an obedient Servant. "Your highness"

"I need you to do something"

"What is it,your highness"

A sinister smile crept into Queen's lips. "Spread a rumour"

.......

That day,Iseul had gone to the market for a little change. She had been fighting nonstop and her mind was filled with those deaths she caused. She needed some fresh air.

As she was walking passed few shops ,she heard some mumbles coming from people. Initially, it had been very bustling and lively but as soon as she stepped in to the area,everything seemed to quiet down. She looked back but everyone looked away as soon as she looked. She shrugged her shoulders and walked ahead.

But the feeling of being stared wasn't leaving. Everyone was talking behind her back. She tried to hear what they were murmuring.

"Is it true?"

"Yes,I heard it from a Palace guard"

She frowned. What did they hear? Is it about her?

"Disgusting"

"How can she still show her face?"

"How disgusting can she be?"

Iseul was dumbfounded. What did she do to be called disgusting? Did she miss something? It didn't seem like a small matter. Whole market was staring at her. It was gradually getting uncomfortable for her. So,she decided to leave immediately.

She turned around to leave but something hit her head. She froze.

Who dared?

The nerve!

She slowly touched her hair and felt a sticky liquid. Egg yolk? With wide eyes,she turned around. "Who did it?"

No one answered. They only stared at her with disgust in their eyes.

"I ASKED WHO DID IT?!", She yelled.

Her hair on her neck rose up and instinctively, she raised her hand and caught something. It was another egg but fortunately, she caught it in time. Her eyes turned dark. This time,she saw who did it. A man in mid thirties. She didn't think twice before walking to him and grabbed him by his collar.

She raised her fist but paused. With a sigh,she threw a hard punch on that man's face. One punch was enough to make him bleed.

"AAHHH!", The man was screaming. "You whore! How dare you to hit me! Do you have any shame!"

She widened her eyes hearing him cursing her.

BAM!

Another punch landed on him.

"You low peasant. Do you know who I am?", her voice went to an octave low bringing chills to anyone who heard her.

"Let him go! If you can't bare the truth,why did you even come back!", A woman screamed. "Let my husband go!"

Iseul's deaf like eyes went to her. "Do you have children?"

The woman was dumbfounded by her question. Nevertheless, she nodded subconsciously.

"Good. Then tell them they won't have a father anymore", she pulled out her sword and placed the blade on that man's neck.

The man immediately begged. "I'm sorry! It's my fault!please,don't kill me!! Have mercy!! Please"

"AAAH PLEASE DON'T KILL HIM!HAVE MERCY!"

Iseul scoffed. "Why would I? You didn't hold back when you threw an egg at me. So,why should I show you mercy?"

The man knelt down and cried. "Please! I have kids! Please! I won't do it again! I will never speak for the rest of my life!"

Iseul released him. "Then don't speak", she pulled away her sword and walked away. She was furious. What the hell was happening? She immediately jumped onto her horse and rode it towards their war territory.

Entering the tent where meeting are hold,she kicked a table. This took Seokjin's and Yoongi's attention. They stood up in worry. They were shocked seeing what was on her head.

"FUCK!", Iseul cursed loudly and looked at her two brothers. "You see this?! Your beloved people did this to me! Those ungrateful disgusting peasants!"

Seokjin,"Hey,I told you not to look down on people. Don't call them peasants. Now calm down and tell us what happened?"

Iseul scoffed. "I will call them whatever I want. Look clearly! Do you know what they called me?! They called me disgusting! They called me a whore!can you believe this?!"

The Princes widened their eyes and looked at each other before looking at Iseul again.

Yoongi,"They called you what? Are you sure you heard them correctly?"

"Yes! Be happy that I didn't kill them", she crossed her arms and sulked.

Yoongi,"This is outrageous. Who dared to do such a thing?"

Iseul nodded vigorously. "They said I did something disgusting. How can I do something without me knowing?"

Seokjin walked to her and patted her shoulder. "First,go and have a bath. I'll send someone to find out what's happening"

Iseul sighed and nodded. As she was walking out,she stopped and looked at Yoongi. "Your highness, I didn't kill them"

Seokjin and Yoongi were puzzled. Why would she say that to Yoongi? She was eagerly looking at Yoongi as she was expecting something.

Seokjin somehow understood and smiled. He leaned towards Yoongi's ear and whispered something. Yoongi couldn't help but to smile. He looked at Iseul and said, "Good job. I'm proud of you"

Iseul smiled widely and ran away.

"In these days,she is trying her best to impress you. You have to praise her", Seokjin said as he went to his table.

Yoongi,"Oh,I didn't know"

"I'm sure that she will call you 'brother' soon. Go easy on her,will you? "

Yoongi pursed his lips as he felt offended. It was his personality to be cold. It couldn't be helped.

Just then the curtains of the tent was opened again. Jimin had entered and his expression was really ugly as he had a bad news.

"What's the matter?", Yoongi asked.

Jimin was panting heavily as he tried to speak. "Not good! Iseul ——",

Seokjin again walked towards Yoongi and both of them faced Jimin.

Seokjin, "What?"

Jimin,"A terrible rumour is going on within the kingdom!"

Seokjin and Yoongi expected this.

Yoongi,"What is it? Is it serious?"

Jimin nodded. "Yes! It's outrageous! They say our Iseul is a whore! When she was held hostages few months ago,she was the only girl with a lot of men around her. So,people had made a rumour saying she had sex with those bastards to escape!"

Yoongi and Seokjin widened their eyes. They didn't expect such a thing!

Jimin,"What should we do?! "

Seokjin, "Calm down,Jimin. This is just a rumour. We all know it's not true. It will fade away soon"

Jimin was still nervous. "Are you sure? This might affect her marriage in the future"

Yoongi, "Let's hope nothing like that will happen. First,we need to focus on this war. When it is over,the rumour will eventually fade away. Let's not trouble Iseul for now"

Little did they know what is going to happen. The rumour didn't stop spreading. More over,it even spread within the army. Soldiers started giving weird stares to Iseul. They no longer looked at her respectfully. Her words were not respected and almost everyone looked down on her. Sent petitions to make her step down from her position.

Iseul silently endured everything. She understood something. Someone is deliberately trying to destroy her character and that someone is not letting her climb up. She didn't need to send anyone to search about this. There is only one person in this world who would do such a thing. Only she knew it. She had been silent whenever it was related to the Queen because it was her brothers' mother.

That day,she was patrolling around to make sure everyone is safe. She saw some Soldiers drinking while chatting around a fire. She decided to walk towards them and ask to quite drinking so much since she didn't want to take any risk.

Just as she was about to speak,she heard her name being mentioned. She immediately hid behind a tent and eavesdropped.

"Who knew our all mighty general is capable of something like that", one soldier said.

"Isn't it obvious? She looks domineering. I bet,she will be the top!"

Everyone burst into a laughter.

Another one spoke. "Let me tell you a secret. She is not a top"

"How do you know?"

"Because...I saw it", that man said with a proud smirk.

Others became more excited.

"What did you see?"

"I saw her underneath me,begging me and woah! She was no top but a submissive one"

Iseul widened her eyes. When did she ever had sex with him? The lies were dripping like honey. No one tried to see if it was true or not. They just wanted the drama.

"You had sex with her?!!no way!!"

"I'm telling you the truth! She begged me so yeah! Huh! She was such a slut! Let me tell you! Her skin was milky colour and her bosoms were —",he stopped in the mid way,feeling a chill near his neck. A cold blade was placed next to his neck.

The rest of the soldiers stood up in fear.
It was none other than Prince Taehyung. Not only Iseul,Taehyung also had been listening to them secretly.

"I dare you to finish that sentence", he growled.

The soldier immediately knelt down and bowed in fear. "Have mercy! I –I didn't know what I was saying! I must have been drunk!"

Taehyung tilted his head. His eyes weren't showing any mercy. "Who gave you permission to get drunk? And what were you saying? What did you do with General Iseul? Go on. Tell me. What did you do with her?"

The soldier was tongue tied. He was sweating furiously. He knew he fucked up. He cursed himself for going ahead of himself to entertain his friends. "I –I was joking! I didn't mean it!"

Taehyung, "It surely didn't seem like a joke to me"

"Your highness"

Taehyung snapped his head and widened his eyes seeing his sister. He suddenly became anxious. Did she hear what they said? He didn't want her to get hurt.

"What are you doing?",she asked as if she didn't hear anything.

"...nothing. Just teaching a lesson to these trashes"

Iseul sighed. Earlier days,she was outrageous and wanted to kill everyone. But now she was tired. She knew that she couldn't stop the mouths of people so it was better to keep quiet. But it wouldn't hurt to beat some trashes like them,right?

Iseul nodded. "Let me beat them"

Taehyung shook his head. "You go and rest. I will do the job"

Iseul nodded and turned around to leave. She could hear their screams and bone breaking sounds.
