Ch-19

"Hm here"

Amelia was weeping quietly in the balcony when Jin handed her a handkerchief. "Thanks" She muttered and wiped her tears off. He chuckled. She looked at him. "Why are you laughing?" She asked in confusion. "It's my first time seeing you cry, so it's funny"

She glared at him. "Yah!! Here i am crying and you are laughing at me" He looked at her with an amused expression. "Finally, you are back to yourself" She realized it and sat back. "By the way, I know it's disturbing you, but can i ask who was the woman? Do you know her?" Amelia sighed.

"She was my cousin. She was exiled years ago" she said while looking down. "Oh" Jin muttered and then looked at her. She was quiet and this just made his heart ache. Since it's his first time seeing her so quiet. So, he gently kept his hand on her, she looked at him in surprise.

"Well I am not good in comforting since I think it's cheesy but still I wanna try. Because i can't see you quiet like this."

She chuckled. "It really seems like this is your first time. You are so bad in comforting" she said while looking away. "So, what do you expect me to do? Hug you?"

"Yah! Don't you dare touch or come close to me. I will kill you"

He giggled. "As if I am gonna hug you" She rolled her eyes but then laughed too. A rare moment to see these two laughing together.

"Why didn't you let me come in front of you? I was just trying to protect you in case she did something wrong" Jimin said, disappointed. Luna kept her hand on his.

"I know why you did that but i was just trying to protect you since i know what she can do in just a flick of seconds" she said with a tone filled with concern. "But how do you know? Is she related to you?" Luna nodded. "You sounded so angry as well as your family. She must have done something wrong"

His words made her cry. He bites his lips and embraces her in his arms. And started patting her back gently. "She did something extremely unforgiving. And now seeing her after so many years, I don't know what kind of storm she is going to bring. I am so scared, Jimin" she said while coming face to face. He wiped her tears.

"Tears doesn't suit you, my dear. And don't be scared. I am with you; I will stay by your side forever. And I like you being confident every time, I can't see you crying and upset like this. So, stop crying now" He started wiping her tears, but she stopped him.

"You shouldn't do this. You are a prince" she said. "I don't care. I make my own rules" She chuckled, he too smiled.

Wong sighed while sitting on his bed. Then his wife came and sat beside him. "Are they all, okay?" She nodded slowly. "Thank god!" He muttered and looked down. She kept her hand on his shoulder. "Don't be worried. You should be glad that our sons are taking care of them"

"I just don't know how this all happened. I feel bad that because of my security, that person entered the palace without permission and created such chaos. I feel sorry for the Euphoria kingdom princesses. They were so stressed out."

"Don't blame yourself. It wasn't your fault. Maybe that girl just did something to enter the palace"

The king just nodded.

"We should go and continue the party"

"Anna, you knew that girl, didn't you?" Hoseok asked Annalise to which she nodded. "She is someone dangerous from euphoria kingdom's dark past. She was really close to luna and amelia. She was their cousin sister" Annalise said in a low tone and Hoseok looked at her with sympathetic eyes.

He kept his hand on her shoulder. She flinched with his touch and looked at him with widened eyes. "Are you okay? Your face looks so red. Are you feeling cold?" He asked in a concerned tone. She looks down, avoiding his eyes.

"I-I am-m f-fine" She muttered.

Hoseok chuckled seeing her. Annalise hides herself. "You look cute while blushing" He muttered which just made her feel more shy.

Daisy was glancing at the two lovebirds when Jungkook came to her and flicks his hands in front of her. She looked at him and then at his outfit. He noticed it and spread his hands to show her. She chuckled and gave him 👌 this sign. He blushed. She smiled.

"Taehyung, can you come with me for a second?" The emperor said to which Taehyung immediately responded. "Yes father?" He asked with his one eyebrow raised. "There's this friend of mine. It's been long enough since he came to the palace, and it seems like he lost his way. Can you go out to check if he is here or not? He told me that he would come with his daughter. You might recognize a certain crown made of leaves"

"Hm okay father." Saying this, he went out to check for them. He went out with some guards; on his way he found a certain someone in a beautiful red and white combination hanbok with flowers design. And his eyes were mesmerized by her outfit. Though he has seen her hair opened always, but this time she had tied them in a bun which just added more spark in her get up.

"Omo, your highness"

Her eyes lit up seeing him and her lips were curved into a smile, just made him feel more mesmerized by her beauty.

Then a man, in his 40s came there. Taehyung immediately recognized the leaf crown, his father talked about, and he made a gentle bow towards the man.

"We have been waiting for you" he said like a gentleman. The man smiled as well as the woman. Taehyung glanced at her and thought, 'she looks so breathtaking'. Feeling his gaze automatically brought a pint tint on her cheeks. He loved seeing her blush and it just made him look at her more.

Then he showed them the way and took them to the castle. "Oh god Austin, where were you?" Wong exclaimed in his worried tone. "Oh, I am so sorry Wong, i just lost my way" Austin said in an apologizing way. "Don't be sorry. It's great that you finally made your way here"

"Oh, it's all thanks to this gentleman right here" Austin said, referring to Taehyung. Wong, kind of got surprised by hearing 'gentleman' for Taehyung since he isn't one at home 😂.

"Oh! By the way he is my son, Taehyung" Wong introduced him and he again made a gentle bow, still glancing at 'her'. "Omg I didn't expect that. Well, here you see, is my one and only daughter, Aurora" She smiled and gave a bow to the king.

Wong and Austin started talking when Taehyung came towards Aurora. "Soo.. Princess Aurora, i thought you weren't coming?" He asked with his knitted eyebrows. "Look you are misunderstanding. I really had no idea that my father would be your father's friend" She explained her situation.

"Well, I am also surprised that he is friends with all the kingdoms in this country" he said while glancing at him and then moving back at her and then slowly moved his face closer to her. She was looking down in nervousness. He smiled at her nervousness and moved more closer, until his lips almost touched her earlobes. He then whispered in his husky and deep voice, giving shivers down her spine.

"You look gorgeous. So much" She slowly moved her eyes towards his and they were now extremely close to each other, literally ignoring everyone around them. They shared an intense eye lock. He gave a smile and pushed her bangs gently from her face. She smiled shyly; it just made him smile more at her.

He moved back on his place and smirked at her who was still blushing. "I didn't know I had this big impact on you" he said in his teasing tone. She looked at him and then glared when saw him smirking. He chuckled. She looked away, pretending to be angry on him. It just made him laugh more on her.

"Mr. Prince, you shouldn't laugh like this on a girl" Aurora said with her arms folded. "Okay then I won't laugh" He replied and started looking at her intensely. "Now why are you looking at me like that?" She asked with a pout. He chuckled seeing her cute pout. "Because you said I shouldn't laugh at you" he said, controlling his laughs.

"Yah!! Hajima!!" She said angrily and he again started laughing. "God! It's so easy to irritate you" he said while laughing. "You, you just wait" She looked around and picked up the nearest thing to hit him with. "Hey, hey wait, wait I am sorry" he said while running away to save his life. Aurora chased him.

For the first time, Aurora got a different feeling. All the credit goes to Taehyung. Though she is still unaware what to name these feelings, she gets whenever near him.
