Jin wasn't in the palace so Y/n had to go back to her room with a disappointed face. They said that he'll be back after three days as he went with the palace staffs to buy medicines.

Now she have to plan to escape again this night. The tea that she wanted can't be sold anywhere but on a specific place only. That specific place is the slums. You can never find a single noble living there as the people were all poor.

They used black dolor to control their population and not cause more poverty. It's the only place where you can buy illegal stuffs like poisons and many more.

As Y/n and Min Seo walks back to her room, two sharp eyes were following them, watching and observing her moves.

"I thought that you want to be with her, young master? Why are you just observing?" the shadow guard whispered, completely confused.

"Be more nosy and I'll cut of your tongue." Jimin smiled and happily admired the girl of his life.

The guard immediately shut his mouth, looking at his deranged master.

"She's planning something. I just knew it." Jimin muttered. His smile never faltering.

That familiar emotion and gestures is clear to Jimin. He had been by her side for so long that he could sometimes read what's going on her mind. Her look when she passed by where he's hidden clearly shows that she's thinking something risky.

A normal person wouldn't notice this but Jimin and her husband.

"I'll follow and observe her while staying hidden for now. I feel like I can get an advantage if I do so." Jimin explained to his guard despite his threat earlier. "Understood?" he said.

"Yes, young master." the guard quickly muttered and didn't dare to be curious again.

"Min Seo, I will sneak out later." Y/n declared to her maid.

Min Seo, halts on her steps and looked at her master who sat on her bed.

"Young miss, you might get into trouble this time! The emperor is already here in the palace." Min Seo said worriedly.

"He's mostly busy so it's not really a problem. I might have to borrow Hoseok's clothes again." Y/n said nonchalantly, ignoring her panicked maid.

She had been building a plan when they both reached her room. Once Jungkook takes Jihyun as his concubine, Y/n will fake her death and run away.

It will be hard for her feelings but she believes that it'll make her family and friends safe. Jihyun will attack her no matter what happens since Jihyun saw her as a rival. She still don't know if she's smart enough to retaliate so leaving is the best option.

Once she fakes her death, her family will have no connection to the royal palace and they'll be safe. Jungkook will also have no excuse to search for her. As for Min Seo, Y/n will have to find a good man for her before she leaves.

Jin can survive for himself. Hoseok also. She knows that they have the capability.

Jimin, her other best friend is also capable of surviving since he's a son of a noble. She hadn't seen him for now but she believes that he'll appear soon. She haven't really paid attention to Jimin in her past lives as she was too busy chasing Jungkook.

Her other friend, Namjoon will be also safe since she had the queen dowager promise to her before to take care of him. Namjoon was an orphan she saved and he was one of the people who tried to fight for her innocence in her past lives. He was like her brother that she never had.

And then there's Yoongi. There wasn't really much in him. He randomly shows up and says the weirdest things like,

'Believe and trust him.'

'Reveal the true secrets Y/n.'

'Every story have different sides. Don't believe it after just seeing one side.'

And many more that she already forgot. She met Yoongi when passing by a road where he lays. He was and still a drunkard who pops in her life saying some phrases he told her to remember. Everytime she met him, she would automatically buy food and will sit with him to talk for a while.

Upon remembering the pale man, Y/n suddenly stood from her seat.

"What is it young miss?" Min Seo asked after being startled by Y/n's movements.

There was something weird with Yoongi but she couldn't figure it out.

"Min Seo, do you have a man that you fancy right now?" Y/n randomly asked her maid.

With that question, the maid blushed and meekly shook her head.

"I haven't fancied one yet, young miss." Min Seo retaliates.

Y/n nodded and pats her head.

"Once you have one, tell me ok?"

"Are you planning to send me away?-" Min Seo whined.

"Not in a bad way. I want to find you a good man for you to have a happy life, but I want to choose the one that you fancy. I don't want you to be married to someone I randomly pair to you." Y/n cooed to her while smiling.

"Young miss might just be flattering me because you want to sneak at the middle of the night but thank you." Min Seo thanked with gratefulness and looked at her young miss with shining eyes.

Ah~ Her young miss is truly kind and beautiful.

At the other side of the room, Jimin raised his brow after hearing their conversation.

Sneaking out, you say?

Seems like something fun is going to happen. He wouldn't miss this chance and use it to his advantage. Maybe threaten Y/n with it? But as far as Jimin knows, this fact is already making him excited.

Bonus since y'all have been showering me with love in the last chapter and this book is about to hit 1k♡

"Guk, wear this." a young Y/n giggled while she held a flower crown.

The two had been playing on the imperial garden but were hidden from the adults. It was like a routine for the two, sneaking out in a specific time to be each other's companion.

The little prince sat away from her. He had been salty about the fact that he just figured out that she had another friend. Isn't he enough?

That small boy with pouty lips is now his pet peeve. He gets irritated even with the mere mention of his name or if something or someone reminds Jungkook of him.

Jungkook glanced at her and muttered a small, "No."

With that response, Y/n pouted and plopped beside him. He had immediately turned his head away from her when he declared his answer, not wanting to see her reaction since her sad face is his weakness.

"But I worked hard to make this for you." a sad voice mellowed.

He could feel his heart melt there and then but he wouldn't budge. He felt like he was betrayed when she accepted that boy who somehow always smile.

"Noona!" a squeaky voice called out.

Jungkook could feel his irritation spreading inside his body as he heard the familiar voice.

"Chim!"

Chim..

Chim?!

Wha-when did she had a nickname for him?!

The prince watched the interaction of the two. His face holding a sour look. He could see her hand patting Jimin's head and felt more bitterness in his mouth.

As a child, he was confused by his emotions but one thing that he knows is Y/n is his. Well that's what his father emperor had said.

He held onto that fact and believed that no one can take her away from him until this midget came. He surprisingly felt doubt for his father for the first time. He felt like Jimin could snatch her away in a blink of an eye.

"Jungkook didn't want this so I'll give it to y-" the flower crown had magically perished from her hands before Y/n could comprehend it.

"Who said that I don't want it?" asked the young boy who wore the flower crown and looked at the other boy.

The two stared each other down, one wearing a poker face while the other one had a sadistic smile.

"Your majesty, I believe that Y/n intended to give that to me." Jimin provokes.

"Y/n made this for me." Jungkook retaliated, his aura that's one like an iceberg not faltering.

"But she wanted to give it to me as a final decision." Jimin continued, touching Y/n's hand who looked confused at their conversation.

The gesture infuriated the young prince more and ended up grasping Y/n's other hand.

"Wait, calm down you two-"

"It was mine first." Jungkook nearly growled out.

"I don't mind pre-owned things. As long as it ends up mine." Jimin hissed. His hand clenching Y/n's.

"Don't test me Park." Jungkook hissed back.

"Chim n-"

"Well don't also test me Jeon." Jimin let out, making Y/n gasp and Jungkook smirk.

He fell on his trap.

"Chim!" she called out.

"What?" Jimin gently asked her.

No matter what happens, Jungkook is a part of the royal family. By that last statement of Jimin, he could receive a severe punishment as it was like belittling the royal family. A royal heir to be exact.

Jungkook had an excuse to punish Jimin as he wants.

"Since you've offended a royal heir, I'm sure you won't mind to stay out of this country once you start your training after your coming of age as a compensation." Jungkook declared triumphantly.

Jimin's head was in a turmoil but he didn't lose his smile. Not in front of his mortal enemy.

With this punishment, Jimin had to leave once his coming of age pass (teenage part of his life). He didn't know that by the time he would come back, Jungkook already took Y/n as his wife.

This chap is meh for me since I kinda rushed it. I wanted to update so much since I know the feeling of waiting for a chapter („ಡωಡ„)

Btw, here's one of Yoongi's sentence that Y/n forgot.

___________

'He loves you so much for him to cheat. Believe me Y/n.'
