✧16. Sister?✧
Author's P.O.V.:-
Duke Jungkook landed on the ground near their camp with Jimin on his shoulder and Amy in his other hand.
"Papa, yay!" Amy chirped. The Duke smiled at her and patted her head.
He put the younger down and he seemed so out of it, he staggered and felt nauseous, "Y-Your h-highness..."
Duke Jungkook held him as the other couldn't even stand properly. He hugged the elder tightly, "I-I... feel like t-throwing... up."
The elder rubbed his back and then broke the hug, Jimin was looking at him with a confused expression when the Duke leaned towards him.
"Y-Your...y-your h-highness..." Jimin stuttered and stretched his neck a little back but the Duke held his nape and pulled him closer.
"W-What-" Jimin closed his eyes shut and clutched his fingers tightly onto the Duke's shirt.
The Duke cupped the younger's face in his big veiny hands and moved further closer.
Jimin's closed eyelashes trembled as he felt the other's breath on his nose tickling his senses.
He tightened his grip on the Duke's clothes as his plump luscious lips quivered. He unconsciously wetted his lips with his tongue and gulped his saliva.
The Duke frowned a little seeing the Younger's reaction but then his lips curved upward a little, he leaned further as their noses touched.
"U-Uh..." Jimin gasped as he felt the touch.
Duke Jungkook moved his head upwards and touched the Younger's forehead with his lips. A white divine light spread through his head and calmed his nerves.
And the elder backed off leaving the younger as if he did nothing, "Now, are you still feeling nauseous?" The Duke asked, his lips raised on one side a little.
Jimin opened his eyes and touched where the Duke kissed him and then looked at the elder in shock, "Y-You..."
"I just transferred a little amount of holy power to you. In that way you won't feel sick," The Duke explained.
"Oh...you were just, um," Jimin felt a little disheartened and it was seen on his face.
Duke Jungkook's lips curled up a little more seeing the Younger's expression, "Why, are you disappointed?"
"W-WHAT? Why would I be disappointed?" Jimin's voice raised a few falsettos.
"I don't know. You should know," Duke Jungkook shrugged and looked at him in a teasing way.
"Hmph, I don't know too," Jimin stomped his foot and looked away, folding his hands.
"Mama, Papa!" Amy chirped, flying around both of them.
"Amy, come here," the Duke called and the little dragon landed on her father's shoulder and snuggled close to him who caressed her head.
"Let's go, Damon will be waiting for you," the Duke walked towards him and held his hand.
Jimin's rosy cheeks tinted pink as the warmth of the Duke spread through his palm, "Why...are we holding hands?"
"Just because I don't want you to get lost," the Duke answered and dragged him.
"Why would I get lost when the camp is in front of me?" Jimin was perplexed.
"Who knows, I don't want to take any risks and you don't want to get eaten by monsters, right?"
Jimin shook his head in a big 'No'.
"Then don't let go of my hand," the Duke smiled.
Jimin was astonished looking at him. He never saw the Duke smiling like that he had witnessed so many things about the elder today.
One, the Duke could get so furious if he was addressed as a monster, he will throw you off the cliff worst case he will just behead you if he doesn't like you.
Two, he knew how to tease, how to laugh, and how to argue ridiculously just like normal people. And he even knew to smile like an angel that would sweep your feet off the ground. You would question your identity, your gender, and even your existence by seeing his thousand-volt smile.
Three, never try to provoke him no matter in which situation you are in cause he will keep that in mind and will take his revenge on you later that too in installments.
Jimin was enjoying the walk when a worried Damon who was discussing something with commander Lee Soo-Hyuk ran towards him after seeing him.
"Jimin!" Damon hugged him, tightly.
Duke Jungkook raised his left eyebrow seeing his son all concerned about the smaller.
Amy saw Damon hugging her Mama and immediately flew to him from her father's shoulder to attack the person. She started pecking Damon's head with her sharp beak.
The Duke smiled seeing her all furious.
"Amy, stop, it's Damon, he is...um maybe your brother," Jimin tried to explain.
"What the-" Damon glared at the little dragon and was about to burn her with his purple flames.
But the Duke immediately came between them and held Damon's hand with his one hand and caught Amy with his other hand.
He glared at his son and put off the fire on his hand with his aura as his eyes shined red like a devil. All this happened in a second that Jimin couldn't even process what happened.
"You shouldn't use your aura on weak, Jeon Damon," The Duke was angry, so angry cause he would only call his son's full name when he was enraged.
The Jeon family's other motto was 'Never use your power to hurt the weak, women and children'. It's against their family beliefs. Their family was powerful for generations but they would only use their powers on the battlefield or when the King order them.
And to think Damon was going to use his aura flame on the newly born baby dragon was unacceptable.
"Maybe, you need to be taught of the family rules all over again, Jeon Damon," Duke Jungkook glowered at his son with his sparkling red demonic eyes.
Damon gritted his teeth and shook off his father's hand and bowed to him, "I apologize, Father."
Jimin saw how the Duke was furious, he got scared but if he doesn't do anything now, the Duke would do something to Damon.
"Your Highness, please calm down. Damon doesn't know about Amy," Jimin gathered all his courage and held the Duke's hand looking at him with pleading eyes.
As soon as Jimin's hand touched his, he closed his eyes, calming himself down, and opened them which went back to normal.
"Papa, waaahhh!" Amy started crying as she didn't saw his father being angry till now.
"See, Amy got scared," Jimin took Amy into his hands and hugged her, patting her back.
Duke Jungkook totally calmed down and looked at his son, "This is Amy, she is your sister from now on. Treat her well, if you don't want to die."
Damon's eyelashes twitched when he heard his Father, "What do you mean by a sister? When did you sleep with a dragon?"
Duke Jungkook was beyond furious when he heard that, he balled his fist and was about to show stars to his son when Jimin held Damon's ear.
"Yah, is that how you talk with your Father? And who taught you such insolent words?" Jimin questioned while pulling his ear.
"Ahh...Jimin..." Damon winced.
"Apologise to your father properly," Jimin demanded.
"Ack, sorry...Father," Damon apologized.
"She is your sister, Amy because she was imprinted by us as mother and father. And the mother dragon was on the verge of dying so she asked us to take care of her as our daughter and we agreed," Jimin explained.
Damon's eyes widened, "As mother and father? You mean you are that thing's mother, Jimin?"
"Yah, I told you her name is Amy. Why are you calling her a thing? And yes, she thought I was her mother as the egg hatched in my hands," Jimin explained again and pulled Damon's ear a little.
Amy looked up from Jimin's embrace, "Mama."
"Ah, yes Amy don't be scared. He is your brother, Damon," Jimin gave the little one a peck on his head.
Damon's eyes darkened witnessing the scene, he balled his fist and gritted his teeth, "When I asked you to be my Dada, you didn't agree but you are now that thing's Mama?"
Damon looked at Jimin with anger and shrugged off his hand and ran away from there.
"Damon! Wait, let me explain, Damon!" Jimin called out but Damon ran away without listening to him.
Jimin looked at the Duke, "Your Highness, what should we do?"
"Leave him, he will be back after getting his senses back," The Duke didn't show any interest in his son.
"Your Highness, you! You shouldn't talk with children like that," Jimin scolded.
"Damon isn't a child," Duke Jungkook deadpanned.
"How come? He is just seven years old, your highness," Jimin refuted but the Duke stayed nonchalant.
"Aish, you both. Take care of Amy, I will go look for Damon," Jimin handed the little one to the Duke and ran after Damon.
"It isn't necessary, though," Duke Jungkook mumbled and looked at Amy whose eyes looked droopy.
"Are you sleepy, Amy? First, let me feed you something then you can sleep as you wish," The Duke carried her inside his tent and called Lee Soo-Hyuk.
On the other hand, Damon took out his sword and was cutting down big mountain rocks and trees to let out his vexation.
Jimin was shocked to see him like that,
>>>Is he that hurt...because I scolded him?
"Damon," Jimin called softly and walked towards him carefully.
"Leave me alone, Jimin," Damon didn't look at him and was about to fly off somewhere else but Jimin grabbed his wrist.
Damon shrugged him off immediately and due to the impact Jimin fell onto the ground and his palm landed on a thorny bush.
"Ouch," Jimin shrieked in pain and Damon immediately looked back, seeing his hand bleeding due to the thorns he immediately threw his sword and crouched down.
"Sorry, I am sorry, Jimin," Damon instantly tried to pull out the thorny bush but Jimin yelped.
"Sorry, I will pull them out gently, you look the other side," Damon said looking tensed.
Jimin said as he was told and Damon carefully pulled out all thorns and threw away the bush afar, "It's done," and he took out the handkerchief from his pocket and wrapped it around his hand.
He then put his hand on the elder's palm and then closed his eyes, a green light illuminated and the wounds closed up as if it was never injured.
"Is it okay, now?" Damon asked looking at the elder with concerned eyes.
Jimin hugged him, "Sorry, Damon."
"Why are you apologizing to me? It's me that pushed you and injured you," Damon was baffled nonetheless, he hugged him back.
"I know it was too sudden for you to accept someone as your sister. And it was not that I didn't agree to be your Dada. You know it's not simple. I am just a no one and for me to take place as your Dada, your Father must acknowledge me and we should get married," Jimin tried to explain.
"I know it was not simple, Jimin. But that thin-...I mean that little dragon is calling you Mama and Father as Papa. Then why can't I call you Dada?" Damon sulked.
Jimin broke the hug and sighed, "Tell me, is it okay for you if I take your dead mother's place?"
"Of course, I don't mind cause I never saw my dead mother because she was not alive when I was born," Damon replied, nonchalantly.
Jimin was left speechless, "Aish, you. Alright, then you can call me Dada when we are together, ok?"
"What, really?" Damon's eyes sparkled.
"Yes, but only when we are alone. I don't want the Duke to misunderstand that I am doing all this to marry him. I don't want to become a gold digger who was using his son to climb to be by his side," Jimin's voice sounded serious.
>>>Well, Father won't think like that if he did he would have already kicked you out of the mansion the day you hugged him.
"Okay, it will be a secret from Father, Dada," Damon called while smiling like a bunny.
Jimin was astonished seeing his smile,
>>>It's just like Jungkook's bunny smile...
He cupped Damon's face and gave a kiss on his forehead, "You look so cute when you smile, Damon."
"Thank you, Dada!" Damon hugged him.
Jimin hugged him back and patted his back, "So, you aren't angry with me anymore?"
"No, Dada," Damon replied.
"Then are you going to accept Amy as your sister?" Jimin asked carefully not to hurt the boy again.
"If that's what you want, Dada," Damon snuggled closer.
"Really? And you won't talk back to your Father," Jimin asked again.
"Um...about that, I don't think I can do that," Damon honestly voiced out.
"Yah, Damon," Jimin gave a light smack on his back and smiled, "It doesn't look like your father cares about you, but Damon he loves you so much."
Jimin remembered how in the novel Duke Jungkook fought to the end to protect Damon and in the process, he died. If the Duke was heartless as everyone was saying then he wouldn't go to such lengths to protect his son.
Duke Jungkook was just a little proud man with so much ego. He was a typical tsundere and doesn't know how to show his feelings and was always misunderstood by everyone and was framed as the Villain when in reality if not for him this novel world would have been in ruins when the Demon's from hell tried to infiltrate and kill the humans.
"You are telling me this even after witnessing Father choking me to death?" Damon questioned.
"You must have said something to provoke him or else why would he do that," Jimin broke the hug and looked at him skeptically.
"Now, you are doubting me?" Damon tried to play innocent.
Jimin narrowed his eyes looking at him with suspicion, "Tell me the truth, you provoked the Duke, didn't you? What did you say?"
Damon sighed, "Alright, I admit my defeat, Dada. It's just that I said he was the one who killed the mother."
Jimin closed his eyes and facepalmed, "Aish, Damon how could you say that to your father?"
To Duke Jungkook, it was a sensitive matter. Even though he didn't show any emotion when Princess Aurelia died. It made a huge impact on him.
No one knew about this except the readers who read the novel that Duke Jungkook had always hated himself and thought that he was the darkness who consumed his parents and his wife.
It was planted in his mind by his uncle who was the King's right-hand man at that time. To prove that his uncle was wrong he raised a dog but it was just the same, it died in front of him after he showed it some affection.
After that, he got so insecure and thought that whomever he loved would end up dead. So, he stopped his feelings, stopped loving anyone, stopped showing any affection, and stopped his heart from showing any kind of emotion.
While dying too he was so desperate enough to prove that his uncle was wrong and that he wasn't the darkness who would take the lives of his loved ones so he tried his best to protect his son whom he loved with all his heart.
And when he died he smiled and was in peace that at least he protected his son and proved himself.
So, it was a sour point to the Duke and Damon just touched it. Now, Jimin can understand why the Duke tried to choke his son.
"Don't ever bring up your mother's death in front of him and it wasn't because of him that your mother died. The Princess was sick from her childhood and couldn't handle the pain of labor pains that's why she died, it wasn't because of you nor because of the Duke. The Princess was a wise person, she knew what will happen to her and even then she choose to give birth to you, in that way, your father won't be left alone again."
Jimin explained and looked at Damon who was amazed.
"Dada, how do you know about my mother and those things that happened way back? It's like you were there when it happened, who are you?" Damon asked.
And Jimin flipped a table in his mind.
>>>Ugh, in flow I told him everything. Now how should I explain about this? This little brat is also as suspicious as the Duke...what should I do now?
