AUTHOR'S POV

Y/n and Yeonjun turned their backs to them, going to leave, Minjun's laughter fading in the background as it blurred behind their backs.

Y/n hoped to see them in her life again, as this memory settled in her heart for ever. Although she wanted to stay there, and watch their every little step, she knew she had to go back.

"Let's go back."

Y/n's voice low in the silence between them and wind blew, making her hair flow like waves in the ocean. Her eyes closed at the wave of the breeze.

She got back onto Fury and motioned him to move to their palace. Fury picked up light pace, wind brushing against both of them and Yeonjun followed them on his horse.

Y/n breathed into the fresh air as Jungkook's face formed in her mind. This was the start of the new phase in their lives.

Y/n was returning while Jungkook was standing in his father's office, not knowing why he was called when he had work to do.

His father, Jeon Junghoon, who was sitting opposite on his chair, finally spoke after a small interval of silence.

"As you know son, you will soon get wedded to Y/n, I also want you to know one thing."

He paused for a moment, sinking back into the chair.

"The day you will be vowing to her will be the same day I'll be giving the Empire into your hands."

Jungkook stood still at that. He was told about everything, but this.

"I'll be giving it all to you and your fiancé, and it'll all be your responsibility, and you're smart enough to understand the rest."

"I won't disappoint you, father." Jungkook bowed fully, taking his father's words. After all, he has been doing this ever since he was born.

Living up to the expectations.

Jungkook sighed at his thoughts and closed his eyes for a moment, to think it all again, still bowing.

His father's lips curled upwards. 'He has grown so much.', thought his father. He stood up from his seat and pulled Jungkook into a hug. He patted him on the back.

Jungkook blinked rapidly and side-glanced his father. His eyes sparkled like stars in an instant.

"Don't take too much stress," said his father. 'I don't want you to not enjoy your life like I did.', the unspoken words of his father.

Jungkook looked like he would explode any second. He never knew that this type of affection had such a profound effect on him. He grinned widely like a bunny.

Soon, the moon cast its glow, and veiled the light blue sky with a layer of darkness and shimmering stars. The day ended with two beautiful moments that would be forever be etched in the past.
