' So Jungkook...how did you befriend the Vampire prince?' Namjoon asked twirling the liquid in his glass

All of them were gathered around in the night court...bottles of wines scattered in between them...with Taehyung leaning against Jungkook's chest

' It's a long story' Jungkook chuckled... stealing a quick glance at Yoongi ' I...kind of tried to run away from this castle when I was nine and then me being me got lost in the forest'

' Why was I never aware of that?'Yoongi waa quick to ask

' Umm...' Jungkook scratched his nape sheepishly 'Just because'

' Shut up and listen Yoongs' Namjoon hushed

' Yeah so I got lost...and didn't know where to go and that's when I met the vampire prince of Astrella...' Jungkook explained ' I was scared...not going to lie.. but he was so caring...and took me back to the castle safely... told me that I will never feel alone in this castle again..that he will come visit me every night..'

' You should have asked him to take you away from here' Jin mumbled

' I did' Jungkook smiled ' I did..but all he said was that there might be someone who loves you back in Astraxus and all I could of was of eomma and you Yoongi hyung'

Yoongi's breath hitched at that as Jungkook continued

' Namjoon hyung wasn't back in this kingdom and all I had was you' Jungkook looked at Yoongi who was now staring wide eyed at him 'Then me and Vampire hyungie started getting close...he kept his promise of visiting me every night... but that stopped once Joon hyung came back'

' Why did he never agree to meet any of us?' Namjoon asked

' He wasn't sure of how you all would react after knowing that he is a vampire' Jungkook shrugged

' And yet he thought falling for Yoongi was a good idea?' Jin blurted out

' He didn't want to...' Jungkook mumbled...his eyes resting on Hobi who was listening carefully...way too carefully if you ask 'He... visited me when you all were here...wanted to make sure I am safe..and that's when he saw Yoongi hyung...and since then all he could think of was of hyung'

' W-when was this?' Yoongi asked... almost breathless..he never knew of this...Jimin never told him any of this till now

' This happened when I was twelve? Yeah twelve..it was my birthday' Jungkook remembered

' He has been in love with Yoongi for what? 11 years?' Jin asked flabbergasted

' Yeah' Jungkook nodded proudly

' How is that even possible?' Yoongi breathed out

' Why can't that be possible?' Hobi asked blinking ' I mean look around you.. Jungkook loves Taehyung ever since he was five even though it took him some years to realize what his feelings were....then we have Jin hyung and Namjoon...they also have been each other's childhood love....so why isn't it possible for the vampire prince to love you'

Yoongi looked down.... drowning himself in some thoughts....as everything Jungkook just told settled in him

' Hyung' Taehyung called ' Is everything fine?'

' Yeah' Yoongi looked up... mustering up a smile... ' I think we should get back to bed.. it's already too late'

Jin and Namjoon shared a concerned look as Yoongi mumbled a small good night before walking away

' Is he alright?' Jin asked ' Is everything fine between him and the vampire prince?'

' I think so' Jungkook trailed off...the question raising doubts in his mind I need to talk to hyung

' I'll go see him' Hobi stood up leaving as the chamber fell into a silence

'Koo' Taehyung called.. raising his head looking at him only to see Jungkook already looking down at him with the most loving smile making his cheeks turn red

' Whipped' Namjoon scoffed playfully

' Jeon Taehyung shi' Jin called..his voice dripping honey ' It's true that I absolutely adore you and my life remains in you my little brother...but I would appreciate it if you both stop eye fucking each and continue whatever you were saying'

Jungkook glared hard at his hyung..a pout on his lips as Taehyung melted into his husband's chest making both the hyungs laugh

' What were you saying Bambi?' Jungkook asked

' Kookie... what's that silver bird?'

' What Silver bird?' Jin asked

' Ah... about that' Jungkook chuckled sheepishly 'When I was young....I have seen appa sending these bird with his magic to eomma whenever he misses her with some message... It was the only trick he taught me.... If I ever miss someone or want to say something to someone who isn't with me...I can just use this magic and it will come back once that person sees it and it will turn into the color of that person's eyes'

' Is that how you talk to the vampire prince?' Namjoon asked as Jungkook nodded

' So that night in the forest.. it was the prince who saved us?' Taehyung asked bewildered.

' Yes' Jungkook smiled

' I..' Jin's voice caught their attention ' Didn't understand?'

' He will show you' Taehyung sat straight

' I don't think that's a good idea' Jungkook hesitated

' Come on Koo...' Taehyung turned towards him ' Tell him that we also want to meet him'

' Yes Kook...tell him that' Namjoon added ' I really want to see the one who got our Yoongs so smitten'

Jungkook thought for a while before nodding... his eyes glowing as he held his hand out...a beautiful silver phoenix forming mid air earning a gasp from Jin and Namjoon

' Hyung...we all want to see you' Jungkook mumbled before letting the bird fly off

' Woahh' Jin exclaimed ' That was so amazing!!'

Jungkook chuckled pulling Taehyung more into his chest... contemplating whether to speak what is in his mind for a second before slowly voicing out
'Umm.... remember the day we set this nightcourt on fire?'

Jungkook felt Taehyung going rigid in his arms while his hyung's smiles fell

'What about it?' Namjoon's voice hardened

' It was the vampire prince who saved us'

Taehyung abruptly sat up turning towards Jungkook with wide eyes filled with disbelief

'What?' Jin mumbled remembering a panicking Yoongi knocking on Joon's door that night

' Hyung was planning on meeting Tae for the first time....wanted it to be a surprise for me..but....' Jungkook hesitantly continued 'By the time he came Tae was already unconscious...even though I still was barely awake... Hyung helped us both out of there...he is the reason that we both are alive'

The other three of them sat in silence.. slowly absorbing in all the new information...

' I thought it was Hobi Hyung' Taehyung whispered

' So Hobi met him?' jin asked as Jungkook nodded

' Vampire hyungie wants to meet you all too...' Jungkook went on ' But when I asked he said he is waiting for the right moment'

🍁🍁🍁🍁

Many days had passed by after Jungkook had revealed a small truth about the vampire prince of Astrella... Even though the phoenix came back..in all its red shimmer no reply from the vampire prince came

Currently Taehyung was on his bed with a clingy bunny hovering over him

' What do you think you are doing?' Taehyung asked trying to be serious even though was failing miserably at the way Jungkook who was lying on his chest a while ago was now kissing his whole face......

' Am just loving my husband' Jungkook raised his head.. meeting his yes ' It has nothing to do with you'

' Is that so?' Taehyung asked teasingly as Jungkook nodded ' I didn't know that this is also a way to love'

' Of course this is' Jungkook declared ' I'll explain how..'

Jungkook leaned down kissing right on the lower lid of his eyes ' These beautiful eyes of yours...with which you make me burn for you'

Taehyung's heart skipped a beat..as Jungkook moved down kissing the tip of his nose

'This adorable nose of yours which you makes my heart explode at your cuteness' Taehyung giggled as Jungkook booped their noses before lifting himself up..his gaze falling onto Taehyung's pretty pink lips as he leaned down placing a lingering kiss on it ' These lips of you with which you make me crave for you...'

' And that face of yours with which you made me fall for you ' Jungkook placed a random kiss on Taehyung's forehead and cheek 'Every single thing about you Tae...every single thing makes me want to remain with you..in this life and all the ones that's yet to come....want to remain as my Estel's Smeraldo in every universe...every dimension '

Taehyung's eyes brimmed with tears as he pulled Jungkook down joining their lips together in a kiss full of love and longing.....

' It's said that moles occurs in places where your soulmate loved to kiss you in your past life' Taehyung said grinning...his eyes roaming over the handsome face of the younger ' Let's see if it's true when we meet in our next life'

Jungkook laughed at that before leaning in again closing the gap between them...but little did he know that he has to die the most painful death just so he could meet his Estel..in another life

🍁🍁🍁🍁

' Yoongi' Jin looked at the younger who was sitting in the garden bench

' Yes hyung?' Yoongi gave a weak smile as Jin sat down beside him

' Is something bothering you?' Jin frowned

' No' Yoongi was quick to answer

' Don't lie to hyung' Jin sighed ' Ever since that night..when Hobi-' Jin's frown deepened when he saw Yoongi's eyes slightly widening ' Ever since that night when Hobi asked you for a dance....I am noticing that you have been very... distraught...'

' I... don't know hyung' Yoongi looked down ' I honestly don't know...I mean...a lot has happened...in the past few days with all of us...and-'

' Did the Vampire prince hurt you?' Jin's voice held an unknown depth that made Yoongi's heart drop in fear making him quickly hold onto Jin's hand before laying his head on his only hyung's shoulder

'No Jin hyung' Yoongi mumbled' He didn't hurt me... not yet..but it feels like he isn't ready to accept me...or to take me to meet his family...said he needs time and that he isn't ready'

' It might be the truth Yoongi' Jin said softly ' Telling your family that you are in love with a human..that too a man from the enemy kingdom..it really is difficult'

Yoongi looked down... fiddling with his fingers 'Hyung'

' Hmm'

' I..am not sure...'

' That he loves you-'

'That I love him'

'Huh?'

' Hyung... I don't think I love Jimin'

The bunch of flowers fell down from Jimin's hand..his heart in his stomach as he stared at Yoongi who was now leaning on to Jin

Jimin had came to talk to Yoongi on how he was going to tell his family and hyung about him..but what he heard broke him to the core.... How was he supposed to digest this information when all along he thought that...that it was mutual... that Yoongi too liked him... His eyes brimmed with tears as he turned around running out of there....the shattered pieces of his heart scattered all over making his thoughts jumbled....his vision blurred as his tears made their way down his cheeks...the cold wind pierced through his skin like needles with only Yoongi's words echoing in his head

I don't think I love Jimin

🍁🍁🍁🍁

' Where are you taking me?'

' Somewhere'

' Jungkook!' Taehyung called exasperated as Jungkook kept dragging him out and towards a small cottage behind the palace

' Have some patience your highness' Jungkook winked at him before pulling out a key from his pocket

' What is this place?' Taehyung mumbled as Jungkook unlocked the door stepping in...

'This is my safe haven Taehyung' Jungkook held his hand taking him in...' My safe haven where I never allowed anyone'

' And you allowed me?' Taehyung looked away from the darkness of the chamber to the beautiful orbs gazing at him lovingly

'You my Estel...' Jungkook smiled ' You are allowed anywhere I go....You own everything that I have....my heart...my mind...my body...my love... You Taehyung... you own the entirety of Jeon Jungkook..and now 'He held his hand out...the torches getting ablaze at the snap of his finger lighting up the whole place 'And now my safe haven too'

A gasp left Taehyung the moment the chamber was lit up...his lips parted...words trying to slip off his tongue but his voice failed miserably..his gaze still fixed on the paper cranes hanging down the ceiling

' Am sorry Taehyung' Jungkook spoke up grabbing Taehyung's attention....' Am really sorry'

' Huh?' Taehyung looked confused....his frown deepening as Jungkook walked further into the chamber giving a chance for Taehyung to look around... It was a simple big hall...with some book shelves here and there...and a table on the other end..and also some canvases

' Taehyung ah' Jungkook looked at him... before pulling out a black book from the table which Taehyung instantly recognized to be his... ' Am sorry I read it without your permission....It accidentally caught my attention and I couldn't help but go through it..which I knew was wrong but...guess I was too curious to know what was in your mind and why you were rejecting me again and again...I know I should have confessed about this diary when you were searching for this but I had no courage....and then I saw how you wrote about making a thousand paper cranes with the one you love...so I thought may be you'd be less angry when I come out to you about it...am really sorry...I know you are angry at me and you have the whole right too for that-'

Jungkook's rambling stopped when he felt Taehyung's soft lips against his own...the warmth vanishing even before he could completely grasp the situation

Taehyung giggled seeing the dumbfounded look of the younger ' You are so pretty my Jungkookie...how can I get angry at such a pretty face?'

' Am not pretty' A small pout was quick to form on his lips ' But if it makes you less angry then am ok being pretty'

Taehyung laughed out at that... taking a step forward hugging his husband...' You are the prettiest cutest hottest husband of mine'

' That I am' Jungkook grinned hugging him back tightly ' Are you really not angry'

' No' Taehyung shook his head ' You are a part of me..and there is nothing that I'd want to hide from you... I guess it's fine that you read it...even though it's kind if embarrassing thinking of all the stuffs that I have written in there '

' It's not embarrassing' Jungkook chuckled ' It's rather cute'

' Shut up' Taehyung tried to sound angry but the little giggle that slipped past his lips said otherwise ' Koo'

' Hmm'

' Did you make all these cranes yourself?'

'Yes' Jungkook nodded pulling back ' I didn't complete it though...the thousandth crane is here'

Taehyung looked towards the table where laid a piece of paper ' Why didn't you make it?'

' Since making a thousand cranes would grant your wish I wanted to make and hang it with you beside me' Jungkook said smiling

' Then come let's do it' Taehyung said excited

' Not now' Jungkook stopped him ' Will do it tomorrow

' Why tomorrow-'

' Tomorrow we will leave here for good'

Taehyung's heart dropped ' Tomorrow we are leaving?'

' Tomorrow will bring with it the first snow of the year Tae....' Jungkook cupped his cheeks ' Time was really flying..but am glad we will be finally free... The hyungs will be here by night to discuss the plan'

' Oh' Taehyung was at a loss of words... He didn't know how to react or what to say.... he knew that there life was going to change forever with the first snow...but what he didn't know was if it was for the good or the bad

' Tae?' Jungkook called worried when he saw the elder's distant gaze ' Are you all right?'

' Yeah...' Taehyung shook of his thoughts...' Am perfectly fine...Now tell me why can't we hang it today?'

' Because I want to start everything anew with you tomorrow' Jungkook replied ' Before leaving we will come here and hang the thousandth crane and then we will wish for something together and leave Astraxus forever'

' We will start a new life' Taehyung mumbled...' We will live happily forever'

' We will' Jungkook pecked his cheeks ' There is also something I want to show you'

' So show me' Taehyung grinned as Jungkook pulled him to the other side of the room where many canvases were kept.... All of them had the portraits of Jungkook ' You look so handsome in even these'

' Joon hyung drew them all' Jungkook said proudly

' Woah' Taehyung exclaimed amazed

'I...also drew something' Jungkook mumbled sheepishly... rubbing his nape ' Actually...two..'

' What did you draw?' Taehyung asked excited

' You'

' Huh?'

' I drew you' Jungkook's cheeks and ears burnt as he lowered his gaze.... God this is embarrassing

' Y-you drew me?' Taehyung breathed out....his shock subsiding and eyes softening at the shy Prince in front of him... these are the moments that makes Taehyung realize how young Jungkook still is....that behind the mask of a rebellious prince is just a twenty three year old who had lost his childhood in the cruelties of the world and Taehyung was absolutely determined on pampering his bratty Prince beyond the limits

' Look at me Koo' Taehyung said stepping closer.. cupping his cheeks making the younger look at him... His heart filling with love at the pink cheeks and unsettling orbs of the otherwise brave Prince ' Look at you being all shy'

' Am not' Jungkook averted his gaze

' Look at hyung Jungkook' Taehyung demanded and who was Jungkook to disobey his dear husband... 'You are pretty...so pretty that I could die'

' Shut up!' Jungkook's heary fluttered even though he would never accept it in front of the elder ' Go am not showing you what I drew'

' Yaa!! Don't be like that!' Taehyung protested

'No'

' Ok I won't call you pretty anymore...now show me'

' Whatever' Jungkook looked at him..his lips still puckered out into an adorable pout ' I won't be mad even if you call me pretty...I don't want you to be sad or something just because I said no'

' Brat' Taehyung whispered rolling his eyes playfully realizing that Jungkook secretly likes being called cute and pretty even though he won't admit it

' So as I said' Jungkook began ' There are two portraits but I will show you only one of them.. the other one I will show you after we make the crane tomorrow'

' That's not fair'

' My canvases my rules' Jungkook sassed

' Oh really?' Something in Taehyung's eyes changed 'Your canvas.. your rules...whom do you belong to then?'

' Tae' Jungkook felt his gut churn... His heart beats raising with each step that Taehyung took towards him...

' Tell me my Smeraldo...' Taehyung's lips found their place on the Prince's neck... nibbling on his skin 'Whom do you belong to'

Taehyung gasped when he was abruptly turned around and pushed against the wall with Jungkook's arms caging him

' As much as I love you being all adorable' Jungkook's eyes flickered green ' I can't deny how hot you look when you take charge'

' Is that so?' Taehyung challenged...his hands circling the broad shoulders of his husband ' I still didn't get my answer though'

' There is nothing to answer' Jungkook pushed himself against Taehyung..their bodies flush against each other...his eyes darting between Taehyung's soulful eyes and luscious lips ' Whoever knows us knows that Jeon Jungkook has always belonged to his Taehyung... Who even knows our story knows that this Smeraldo has no life beyond his Estel...and there will come a day when people will sing praises of how this cursed Prince worshipped his Moon dancer'

Taehyung pulled Jungkook by nape joining their lips in a heated kiss... their teeths clashed as their tongues fought for dominance resulting with Jungkook submitting in front of his Bambi who now took his sweet time exploring his warm cavern...

A moan left them both as their clothed hardness rubbed against each other causing them both too pull back...a string of saliva connecting them... Jungkook's eyes darkened as he pulled his husband back into another hungry kiss... both of them moaning and grunting as they made out...only to pull back when their lungs screamed for air

'That was hot' Taehyung mumbled as they both chuckled.. still in each other's arms ' Kooo now show me the drawing'

' Yeah..okk...' Both of them turned around towards the two canvases which were hidden behind a white sheet
' Choose the one you want to see today'

' What if I want to see both' Taehyung grinning wiggling his eye brows

' You cheeky monkey' Jungkook laughed ' Either choose one or don't see any of them'

'Meanie' Taehyung scoffed before pointing to one of them ' This'

Jungkook's smile widened..his eyes gleaming with a hint of nervousness before he pulled down the sheet

Taehyung's heart stopped the moment his eyes fell on the drawing...He felt as if he was looking at himself in some mirror...the portrait was perfect and beautiful..so beautiful that Taehyung doubted if he really looked like this or if it was Jungkook's talents

His eyes wandered over the picture again.... taking in every detail..the beautiful crown...his grey orbs...blue hair which he dearly miss now....his pretty earrings and that's when something suddenly caught his attention... making him move closer and look carefully at the writings at the bottom corner of the canvas... reading which Taehyung's heart filled with warmth and an unknown ache...his eyes already filling with tears as he turned back towards Jungkook

' How is it Tae?' Jungkook asked expectantly

' It's beautiful' Taehyung breathed out...'This is so beautiful'

' How is the writing? Did you not like it?'

' I love it... it's so..it made me feel so loved and precious'

' Then Why are you crying my love?' Jungkook asked lovingly as he held the elder

' I don't know Koo...' Taehyung hugged him ' I feel so scared suddenly....I don't know why'

' Hey...you don't have to be scared' Jungkook assured him ' Nothing will go wrong'

' Hmm' Taehyung opened his eyes...his gaze falling on the writing again ' Jungkookie'

' Yes Bambi'

' I love you' He mumbled...his eyes traveling through each word again

Those eyes of yours
With which you made me burn for you
Those lips of yours
With which you made me yearn for you
That face of yours
With which you made me fall for you
That love of yours
With which you healed me
And that heart of yours
With which you made me love myself
Our fate is written in the stars of Astraxus my darling
You came as the cure to my pain
You came as the answer to my Hereath

And I promise
To wait for you
In every life
Just like how the
Shore waits for the waves
No matter how forbidden
Our love will be
In any of the lives to come
I'll happily destroy the whole world
just to keep you safe
my Estel
