Chapter: 1


Fuyu's pov

"Your Royal Highness, His Majesty summoned you to his court" One of my maids, Yubi told me.

"Get me ready" I said, closing the book I was reading.

I stood in front of the large mirror while the maids do their work. I stared at myself in the mirror.

After I died, I thought I was going to heaven since I saw that mysterious Angel. But I woke up in a bed draped with pure, red silk sheets and the chamber was very big enough to fit thousand people. I looked around until something caught my attention, the person in the mirror wasn't me.

Pale and soft skin, hazel brown almond-shaped eyes, rosy pink lips and long black hair till her hips, she was wearing a simple hanbok which is in light shade of blue. She's looks so ethereal and beautiful. But I noticed that I was looking at myself and then thought if I was dreaming.

While I was questioning to myself, three ladies came in and bowed down to me. I was flustered not knowing what to do or say. They were calling me 'your royal highness' which made me more confused about what was going.

Then my head started hurting, the body's memories starting flashing through my mind. Her name was Kim Fuyu which was same as mine, she lives as a Crown Princess in this kingdom called Imugi. Her mother passed away when she was young, has two elder brothers and a father who's always busy with his work as an Emperor. She was lonely and had no one to lean on.

Unable to live anymore, she decided to end her life by drowning into the lake. One of her brothers saw her jumping into the lake and saved her. My soul must've taken her body when she was under the water.

So, I have no choice but to live in her body and I'm reading history books to gain some knowledge about this place because the memories of the previous owner of the body shows that every royal descendants of the family seems to have powers and they could shapeshift which is quite surprising for me. But this body cannot use the powers as her powers are rare and could be harmful.

You might be wondering that if I was missing my modern life but I'm happy here because I was an orphan with no family, I had few friends but we weren't close. I barely had food on my plate and worked a lot.

But here I could just read books, eat whatever I want and I can sleep all day which is the best thing that ever happened to me. I also don't miss social media because it was annoying for me.

Me being addicted to historical dramas and novels, I'm already an expert on the etiquette.

"Your Highness, you're ready to go" Minji said.

"Oh wait! You forgot this!" The other maid, Yuri kept a golden piece on my waist.
Note: She has three maids - Yuri, Yubi and Minji.

I looked myself at the mirror and I have no words to say. This girl is so beautiful!

I walked out of my chamber with my maids and a royal guard leading us to the Emperor's court. It took a while because this palace is humongous. I stood in front of the giant doors and I heard some noises from the other side. I took a deep breath because I was nervous and scared. It's been a week since that incident. Will this emperor who is supposed to be my 'father' punish me? Cause committing suicide is a crime here.

The doors opened startling me.

"Her Royal Highness had arrived!" The guard announced loudly, causing people to murmur quietly.

Eyes were on me, but I didn't care about it and walked to the other end of the court, bowing down to my father who was sitting on his throne.

"Greetings to you, Father" I said, getting up.

He just stared at me with his golden eyes and didn't say anything which is nerve wracking for me. After few seconds, the people started leaving the court leaving me alone with the emperor and two guys who were really handsome and are my brothers.

In a flash, my father stood in front of me and hugged me, making me surprised.

"Fuyu! Are you okay? You almost gave a heart-attack to your poor old man! I was frightened when I heard that you jumped into the lake!" He said, with a worried expression. Is this my father? The one who never care for his daughter.

"Give me a hug, I almost got a heart attack too" One of my brothers said, pulling me into tight hug.

"I need a hug too!" The other brother said, pouting.

What the hell is going on?...I thought her brothers were cold to her from the start.

"Why would you jump into the lake? Are you insane?!" The guy with the dimples, Kim Namjoon questioned me.

"Uh...I didn't jump, I slipped and the lake happen to be there" I said, lying through my teeth. He look at me, not fully convinced.

"Really Fuyu? I clearly saw you jumping into the lake" Jung Hoseok asked me, raising his eyebrow.

"Don't question my little princess, she's still recuperating" My father pulled me away from my brothers. Little? I'm 20 years old...

"Are you hungry right now? Do you want me to prepare your favourite dishes?" He asked me. Well I'm hungry right now so why not.

"Yes father" I said.

"Very well!" He snapped his fingers and a table with full of dishes popped out of nowhere. All the dishes happened to be my favourites. I smiled out of excitement and sat down, taking the chopsticks in my hand and started gobbling everything. The three men also sat down and started eating.

The thing I found strange was that these men were being warm to me which was not what I saw in the memories. But whatever, it's a good thing.

Time skip

"Ah! That was so good" I said, patting my happy full stomach.

After that good meal, my father had to attend to his tasks while my brothers said that they have to find someone who apparently gone missing.

So I went to one of my favourite places which is the library.

I went to the side of the library where the history books are and selected a book which caught my interest.

I opened the book and started reading about this kingdom.

Imugi was the place where the Great Dragon rested till its last moments. There is a legend that the dragon gave its pearl and great powers to a man who was young, brave and intelligent. The man became a great emperor and protected his land.

Later, he fell in love with a kind woman, who was a healer. After courting her, they both got married and she gave birth to three sons. The sons were bestowed with powers. The first son grew up to be a brave and wise like the Dragon, the second son was courageous and sharp like Tiger and the third son was mischievous but also got his mother's nature as a healer like Gumiho.

As they grew up to a certain age, the emperor decided to divide the land into three parts:- Imugi, Beom and Yeou.

Then he retired from his position as an emperor and he crowned his sons as the emperors of each Kingdom. All three sons ruled their kingdom along with their companions and also maintained a peaceful brotherhood with each other.

I closed the book after finishing it and exited out of the library. I was walking to my chamber until I heard some cheers.

I looked to my side and saw a crowd in the sparring ground. I was curious to see what was going on. So I walked towards the area.

I tiptoed to see two people in a sparring match. One was a male and the other was a female. I couldn't see their faces as they were really fast.

"JEON JUNGKOOK! WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT NOT LEAVING YOUR TASK UNATTENDED?!" My brother, Namjoon yelled. Right! Jungkook, the prime minister.

Jungkook got distracted and his opponent took that as an opportunity and used her weapon to detached his sword from his hand.

"Ha! I won! Now it's a tie! 80 to 80" The female grinned, pointing her sharp weapon at his chest. I recognised her in my memories. Hwang Byeol, the General warrior who led the royal army in victory of the war with the rebels. Wah! She looks so amazing and cool!

"Ugh! Hyung! You made me lose!" He whines.

"I don't care! Now come with me, we have to go somewhere" Namjoon said.

He groans, keeping his sword in his scabbard and went with Namjoon.

The crowd dispersed, so I was gonna leave.

"Fufu Unnie!" Byeol exclaimed, popping in front of scaring the shit out of me.
