Entering the office building, yn was greeted by her friend- Edward who smiled at her. "Hello there". Sharing a hug, she passed him a genuine smile. "How are you?". She asked while Edward shrugged his shoulders.
Edward: "What do you think? Now we are assigned to renovate a huge ass castle and it's no fun" A sigh escaped from yn's lips as she nodded, agreeing to his words. This is the first time they have been assigned such work and to be honest she wasn't concerned about it too. Like, who would go to such an outdated place?
Besides, the rumors about the castle being haunted made her scoff internally. "You are right, but again we don't have a choice do we?". She spoke while clicking her tongue in annoyance. The dreams which she were getting were making her exhausted and now this huge amount of work wasn't helping either. Placing a hand on her shoulder, Edward gave her a small smile, cheering her up.
Edward: "Don't forget some crackheads are also coming with us so it would be a hell of an experience. Alex won't let us get bored, besides we can also find the ghost who has been haunting that castle". She laughed when he made a funny face, her mood changing into a happy one because of him. Thank to God that in this small world of hers, there are some people who make it very beautiful and joyful.
But no one can take "his" place "
Sean looked down upon hearing the Mayor's words. He has to stay quiet , but deep down he was feeling terrible for risking those people's lives. If something happens to them then he won't be able to forgive himself, but getting rid of this castle and the ample amount of money which the Mayor gave him made him shut his mouth.
Mayor: "One more thing". He looked up upon hearing his voice. "There are equipments which will be coming by night for the renovation. Make sure to place them safely in the store room and make arrangements for those architects. Clean the rooms so that they can stay there and work peacefully".
Sean's eyes widened in surprise. "They will be staying in the castle? Sir do you think that" it" will let them stay there? They all will die!". He couldn't control himself as he raised his voice at the Mayor who looked at him with fuming eyes.
Mayor: "Tell me one thing Sean". He said while stepping closer to the young man who soon gulped because of his deadly eyes. "Do you want to raise your family and live a fearless life or not?" His gaze fell down on it's own upon hearing those words. The Mayor smirked before turning around.
Mayor: "Good, now do as I have said".
Alex: "How about we take Ouija board? What if it's the female ghost? I wouldn't mind being haunted by one". He laughed while leaning his back onto the chair while others glared at him. They all were sitting in their respective cabins doing work. "What? Come on it's gonna be fun". Edward scoffed while Alice chuckled before turning back to yn who was staring at the screen in surprise.
Alice: "You okay? Why are you so surprised?". She asked and yn looked at her before speaking. "Well there's an interesting thing. It is said that the king had a mysterious death. And after his death, the whole kingdom went through a downfall and was shut down". Everyone listened to her words curiously.
Alex: "No Ouija board then. I don't want any old guy's soul to come after me". A whine escaped his lips as Edward smacked his arm for being so chill about it, even if its just a piece of information. Tomorrow is the day when they will be leaving for the castle and start with their project. Yn shook her head and again concentrated on the computer with Alice besides her while the rest of them did their own respective works.
It was late at night and Sean wondered what took those workers so long to bring the required equipments. He was trying his best to stay calm and composed but his heart was pounding wildly inside its cage because of fear. What if something happens to him and those innocent people? He still remembers that day when he and the Mayor once found dead bodies inside the castle.
"There's a reason why no one steps inside this castle at night..."
A sigh of relief escaped his lips when he saw 2 trucks coming towards his direction. "They're here". Mumbling to himself, he took slow steps towards them until a man from the driver's seat came out following by other men to place the equipments inside the castle.
Sean: "Took you long enough". He spoke and the man nodded while sighing deeply. "One of the trucks got punctured in the middle of the highway, which is why we got a bit late". Nodding in agreement, Sean took out the keys which were given to him by the Mayor and looked at the Man.
Sean: "This way". He directed them and all of them made their way inside the castle.
The hallway was dark and there was a pin drop silence as all of them walked towards the required room where the equipments will be placed. Sean was sweating badly because of fear while the man next to him gave him a weird look . "You okay there pal? Why are you sweating?". He asked but Sean quickly shook his head and chuckled nervously. He didn't want to get into any kind of trouble at the moment.
Sean: "I am just exhausted, nothing more. Here... this is the room". He said before quickly opening up the door of the room. All of them started to get inside and as the last person entered the room, a loud bang startled everyone as the door got shut on its own. Sean shivered in fear and froze at his spot, praying to god to spare his life. Others were confused while some of them were freaking out because of the sudden unexpected act.
Man: "What the hell is happening, wait who is there?". He pointed towards the space next to the door and everyone looked over there. There was a shadow of a man, lurking next to the door as it stared at each one of them. His face wasn't visible but the aura around him shivered everyone. Sean was beyond terrified and a cry escaped his lips as the man looked at him.
"This castle is mine and hers... how dare you step inside it?"
The shadow spoke in a deep whisper and those men gulped hardly. Everyone screamed when the things started to shake, the surrounding turning dangerous in a second, and within a second, all of them were dead except for Sean who was on the verge of dying. He was bleeding badly but his gaze never left the shadow which soon stood in front of him. Before he could say something, his eyes turned heavy and darkness soon consumed him completely.
Aera: "All ready?". She asked yn who grabbed her small briefcase and smiled at her. "I'll be back after 2 weeks, are you sure you'll be okay till then?". Aera chuckled and nodded before giving her a warm hug. "Don't worry about me, and please do take care of yourself. Hmm...". Nodding at her words, yn smiled before going out of the apartment.
'His wait was now over as his love was coming for him... "
The Mayor stood at the hallway with a confused expression on his face. He didn't hear from Sean last night and deep down he was concerned. Making his way towards the room where the equipments were, he opened it only to find them safely placed there. A ray of hope sparkled inside his body when he found everything normal. Closing the door behind, he turned around but was startled upon seeing Sean.
Mayor: "God, you scared me! Where were you last night? I was waiting for you". Sean smiled slightly before speaking. His behaviour was quiet different than usual but the Mayor didn't pay any attention to it and listened to his words.
Sean: "They came late last night, which is why I didn't come predicting that you might be sleeping. Equipments are here, but when will our guests arrive?". A sadistic smile formed on his lips as he asked that question.
Mayor: "You are acting weird, anyways they will arrive by noon most probably. And their rooms?". "Everything is already prepared sir. They will love to be here". The Mayor nodded sternly before going out. Sean slowly turned around, his expressions changing instantly into a dark one while his eyes followed the Mayor's figure.
Sean: "Out of all them... you will witness the most horrible death"
King:'' Along with that, I would also like to announce My Princess YN - The Princess of The Kingdom Empyrean and Prince Zen of Kingdom Zarek to be bound in a relationship. The special reason for their arrival here is the wedding of the heirs of the two Kingdoms. The wedding will take place within ten days. All the preparations shall be done within the time."
As those words escaped his lips, Yn looked up with pure shock on her face. Tears started to form in the corner of her eyes but she held them back before looking down, trying to control her emotions. Taking a deep breath, her eyes followed the hall to look for that one person who will also be affected by the announcement made by her father.
She froze at her spot when her eyes landed on Jungkook who looked back at her with both pain and aggression. His chest was heaving up and down as he was breathing heavily, trying to control his aggression while his gaze never left yn's. She was hurt but also terrified as she has already anticipated that moment when they both will meet privately.
Alice: "Damn, this castle is huge". She spoke while her mouth wide opened, admiring the castle. Alex scoffed at her comment and spoke, he just cant live without bickering. "Of course it has to be Alice, its a castle not an igloo". She glared at him while others laughed before getting out of the car including yn who soon stared at the castle.
A stinging sensation occurred in her heart as her eyes observed the castle. It was too familiar, just like her dreams. "Why it feels as if I know this place already?" She thought to herself before looking around, observing the whole place carefully. Edward looked at her patted on her shoulder softly, earning her attention.
Edward: "You okay there?" Asking with a concerned expression, he waited for her reply while she nodded and smiled warmly at him. "Where's the mayor though? Sir said that he will be here to accompany us". He spoke before taking out his phone while yn again looked at the beautiful castle in front of her.
"I apologize for coming late"
A male voice caught their attention and all of them looked at the direction of the voice. There stood Mayor along with Sean who was staring at each one of them until his eyes landed on yn who stared back at him. He froze at his spot upon looking at the lady in front of him who soon shifted her gaze towards the Mayor who was talking to them.
"M-Ma Princesse"
He tilted his head while his eyes sparkled with happiness and joy. Finally, after 400 years of waiting he finally met his princess who came back just to complete their love which was ruined by those monsters.
"Soul has recognised the other soul..." She was his princess. It was her, the body is different but the soul is same.
Mayor: "This is Sean, he will be staying here to accompany you. If you need anything, ask him and he will get it done". A small smirk formed on Sean's lips upon hearing those words. The Mayor himself made his work easy, to make his princess his again, now no matter what happens, he won't let her go at any cost. They will unite, and they will complete their incomplete lovestory.
"With pleasure..."
That's all he thought before looking at yn again.
It was currently night and yn was sitting on the bed with her laptop on. The room where sean told her to stay was way too familiar and royal just like a princess's one, of course it would be since they are currently staying inside a castle but she was getting strange vibes from it. Even while having the dinner, that guy Sean never stopped staring at her which shook her to the core. She was wondering what the wrong she has done to him? He was staring at her as if he will eat her any moment.
Shrugging those thoughts, she again concentrated on her work, the screen in front of her displaying the places which need to be renovated. A gasp escaped her lips as she touched her chest upon hearing a loud thud all of a sudden. She stood up from the bed while grabbing the lamp in her left hand and made her way outside the room in that beautiful night gown of hers.
Yn: "Hello? Is anyone there?" She spoke, her voice echoed through the empty hall. Now this time she started to believe that there is a ghost here. "Come on yn, don't be so stupid to think like that". She mumbled under breath while consoling herself, trying to think rational and positive. Her eyes soon observed the interior carefully resulting in a small smile to spread across her face. It was indeed beautiful, and definitely will become an attractive tourist spot.
Little did she know that a pair of eyes were watching her, admiring her figure from the back. His gaze was full of love and possessiveness as he stared at her princess. She has become more beautiful, more lovely than before. That's what he thought while following her from behind. He observed the way her curves were perfectly fitted in that night gown of hers, almost begging him to rip it off and claim her as his again.
Just like the way he used too...
That memory soon flashed in front of his eyes when everything changed. When they were separated, when both of them begged for their love...
When he was separated from his princess...
Yn: "Jungkook... listen to me please". She cried while following him who was walking in front of her, ignoring her since afternoon breaking her heart even more. After the announcement, he got out from the hall and shut himself up, letting out his pain and aggression alone. The thought of losing the love of his life made him insane and crazy.
He cant live without her, and he cant tolerate any other man claiming her as his. But what a mere royal painter can do? He was in no position to revolt against the king, but he didn't want to give up at the same time. As he entered his room, he was turned around by none other than yn who looked at him with pleaded eyes. Her face was expressing nothing but pain which ached his heart, but his aggression was beyond limit.
She is his... only his...
Jungkook: "Are you seriously going to marry that prince?" He finally spoke while gritting his teeth in aggression. His eyes held possessiveness, and in a second he slammed her fragile figure against the wall, trapping her between his strong arms. She looked into eyes and gulped, she knows how much he loves her and is possessive towards her. Its not like she didn't like it, but calming him down at the moment was way more important.
Yn: "No Jungkook, I love you, I cant even think of marrying a man who is not you". As those words escaped her lips, Jungkook stepped more closer to her figure, decreasing the distance between the two in every possible way. His hot breath fanned over her neck as he breathed heavily, while his hands slowly grabbed her soft delicate ones, now pinning them on either side of her head. He bit on her skin harshly earning a yelp from her while he caressed her wrists with his thumbs.
Jungkook: "There is a reason why I call you Ma Princesse, yn..." She looked up at him getting slightly surprised when he called her by her name. For the first time she heard her name from his mouth and that too because of aggression. Moving closer to her lips, he whispered in his deep voice as his lips brushed slightly against hers.
Jungkook: "And the reason is that you are mine. I don't share my precious possessions and believe me love, you are the most precious one". His eyes showed nothing but love and fire, fire which expressed her importance in his life. Placing his forehead on hers, he closed his eyes before giving her a soft peck. "But I know..." He paused before continuing. "I know I can't stand against his majesty, but I don't want to lose you either".
Not wasting any minute, she pulled him into a sensual kiss and he responded immediately. Both of them got lost into their magical world, it was as if the time has stopped. "Then let's run away..." She said while breathing heavily as he did the same while staring deeply into her eyes. Placing her palm on his left cheek, she caressed it with her fingers as he closed his eyes, feeling the warmth of her hand.
Jungkook: "Are you sure... I won't be able to give a luxurious life-" "I love you Jungkook... please take me with you. I don't want a luxurious life, not a crown, I just only want to be with you till death do us apart". Hearing those words, Jungkook pulled her into a passionate kiss, expressing his approval through the it. She smiled when he unzipped her gown, his cold fingers made contact with her bare back making her shiver which was somewhat pleasurable.
Jungkook: "We will leave tonight Ma Princesse". She hummed in response and again kissed him making him smile. "I love you too" He whispered seductively before burying his face on the crook of her neck, sucking and biting on her skin and marked her. She moaned in pleasure while her fingers went through the locks of his hair, feeling him even more.
While the two souls were deep into their magical world, they didn't know that someone was watching them. Their secret was not safe anymore as the guard of the king turned around to give this news to his majesty, letting him know about a filthy painter who dared to touch the princess.
Her screams were getting louder and louder by each second upon seeing the love of her life getting beaten up brutally behind the bars, in the dungeon. "Father please, spare his life I will do anything". She begged while hugging his right knee, tears of helplessness were flowing from her eyes. But the king couldn't care less as he was beyond furious.
King: "Hang him". As those words escaped his lips, yn's eyes widened. She couldn't see her love dying in front of her eyes, and for what crime? Love? Jungkook slowly raised his head up and looked at yn who was still begging her father while crying. His heart ached upon seeing her this helpless, a sudden wave of rage rushed into his veins as he gazed intensely at the king.
Jungkook: "Y-You may kill me today... but not my love. The body will leave but the soul will remain until and unless it won't take her with it. She is mine and always will be..."
"Ma Princesse"
"I was executed in front of you... but see. I am still here and I knew that one day you will come back to me and we will be united. I missed you so much Ma Princesse... you are finally here".
While she decided to go back to her room thinking that she might have misunderstood, a small scream escaped her lips as her ankle suddenly got twisted. Closing her eyes in a reflex she was ready to feel the cold floor but couldn't as two strong arms held her tightly, preventing her from falling.
The lamp was still in her hand while she opened her eyes, feeling someone holding her in his warm embrace. Bringing the lamp closer to his face, she finally met his eyes which were staring back at hers intensely with so much admiration. He was utterly beautiful and handsome, he had a perfect face with pink plump lips.
Yn: "W-Who are you?" She finally spoke after their staring session. A smile spread across his face as he slowly stood straight, still holding her in his embrace. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw his angelic smile, it was so beautiful and familiar too. Being in his embrace made her heart warm and it felt just like the guy in her dreams. But it's impossible isn't it? How can a guy from her dreams be real?
Jungkook: "The name is Jungkook my lady". He introduced himself and she on the other hand stopped breathing. The same name it was... but how is this possible? She thought that her dreams were because of her sleeping disorder just like her doctor said then how a guy with the same name is standing in front of her? She was terrified and confused too.
"Or maybe it is just a coincidence?"
Yn: "Y-You can let me go" She stuttered while looking into his eyes which darkened a bit in a second. Her words made him insane but he hid it with another smile and slowly let her go. To get back his princess, he has to take every step with proper caution. She backed away from him and cleared her throat before speaking.
Yn: "Where is Sean? And what are you doing here at this time?" She asked and Jungkook chuckled before shaking his head which took her off guard. "My lady, I work with Sean. He has to leave due to some urgency which is why I am here. I just came here and then saw you". He bowed in front of her while she looked at him with suspicious eyes. This place is really strange and so are the people working here.
Yn: "Okay... well I will go. You should also sleep Jungkook... good night". She walked past by him and her heart pounded crazily inside it's cage. Again the same familiar feeling. Shrugging those thoughts, she quickly made her way towards her room, for a reason she wanted to get away from this guy. He was already intimidating her, and the feeling she was going through was making her crazy.
Jungkook turned around and smirked while looking at her figure. "I know you feel it Ma Princesse... I know your heart still beats for me. For your Jungkook".
The next morning was all busy. The four of them were looking at the blueprint and therefore decided to divide the work among each other. Yn's work was to look upon the garden. A smile crept upon her face upon looking at the beautiful garden. "There isn't need for much renovation here, only few parts. I should take the note of it". Taking out her notepad, she started scribbling on the paper when suddenly someone startled her by shouting.
Alex: "Just look at your face workaholic!" She placed her hand on her chest and glard at Alex who was still laughing. "What the hell Alex! I almost died! And what the hell are you doing here? Weren't you supposed to look after the interior along with Alice?". Alex scoffed and side hugged her before speaking.
Alex: "You know, Alice doesn't need me to accompany her. She is not that lucky, but you are. So I decided to help you instead beautiful". He pinched her nose and she glared at him. "Just go from here because you aren't that lucky to work with me!". She repeated his sentence making him scoff. "Yah! Yn! Please let me work with you Alice scolds me way too much- Yah! Don't ignore me like that!".
Little do they know that someone was watching them with raging eyes.
Jungkook: "He will be the first one to witness my wrath".
He watched Alex as he made his way inside the bathroom. Smrking he followed him behind. "Today was a tiring day, I hope this project gets over as soon as possible" Mumbling to himself, Alex got into the bathtub and closed his eyes, getting relaxed because of the warm water. But soon a frown formed on his face as his body started to get heavy on its own.
He felt as if someone was pushing him inside the tub, an eternal force. He tried to speak but words didn't come out of his mouth. Slowly his body sank into the water, and he struggled to breathe. As the time passed, his breathing stopped and his body float inside the tub. Jungkook smirked and cracked his neck before making his way outside.
"One down... two to go. And then I'll be with my princess"
