One week later

Fuyu's pov

"I want to go out of the palace again" I said.

"It's not possible at this moment" she said.

"Why?" I pouted.

"The emperor and the crown princess from the Beom empire is gonna visit for dinner, so we need to get your highness ready" She explained.

"Oh oka-what did you say?! Beom empire? The emperor is coming here?!!" I asked her, my eyes grew big as a golf ball.

She nods.

I read a book about its empire and all the emperors. The present emperor of Beom is a cold blooded and ruthless person. The previous princess even met him once and his aura is truly something. She was so scared and couldn't even look at him.

"Can I skip today's dinner?" I asked her.

"No, His Majesty stated that it's mandatory for you to attend today" She said, making me groan.

"I prepare a nice bath for you" she said.

"I don't wanna go!!" I whined, rolling on the bed.

"Princess! You have to get ready before they arrive" she said, pulling me up from the bed and pushed me into the bathroom. I sighed, removing my hairpieces and removed my hanbok, leaving myself in white garments. I stepped into the tub which is filled with warm water and rose petals floating on top of it.

Time skip

Yubi did my makeup, Yuri did my hair and Minji helped me get dressed.

"Did you know that this colour is the emperor's favourite colour?" Yubi questioned, grinning.

"Uh...no, why?" I asked.

"You'll know later" Yuri said.

"Minji, can you tell me what's going on?" I asked Minji, who was selecting some jewelleries.

"Be patient princess" she said, making me more curious.

Yoongi's pov (Imugi empire, in a palace for royal guests)

"Oppa, will the crown princess like me?" I heard my sister, entering into my chamber.

"No, she won't like your annoying ass" I said, jokingly. But my sister took it seriously, that she used her power on me. Now, I'm fully wet due to her water tricks, but I used my fire to dry myself.

"I'm just joking Yeona, of course she will like you" I said, looking at my sister who was glaring at me, her expression softened after I said that.

"Really?" She asked me, sitting beside me. I nodded, giving a small smile, patting her head.

"I'm worried about her impressions about me because I want to be friends with her" she said, fiddling with her sleeves. She usually do that when she's nervous.

"Excuse me, I'm the one who should be worried about her impression on me. The last time we met, she couldn't even look at me or talk to me" I said.

"Haha! Sucks to be you" Yeona snickered.

"I don't know why everyone thinks of you like a ferocious tiger but you actually act like a whining cub" She said, playing with my long hair.

It's because of that day, when I went insane and mad because our parents were assassinated. I went around killing every person who were part of the assassination although I didn't know who was the mastermind behind it. Everyone in the empire witnessed me killing people like a crazy person. Yeona doesn't have recollection of that day as I removed some of her memories.

"I do not act like a whining cub" I said.

"Yes you do" she said, sticking her tongue out.

"I do not!" I told her.

"I do not!!" She mocked me.

"Yeona, don't make me angry" I warned her.

"Okay okay...I'm sorry" she said.

"It's alright and get ready. We'll be leaving in an hour" I said.

"Okay" she said, standing up and exited out of the chamber.

I leaned back onto the wall behind me, closing my eyes, remembering the day when I first saw the crown princess.

"Hyung, My father summoned me to his chamber. So, I will meet you in the garden" Namjoon said. I nodded, turning my heels around and walked on the path which leads to the royal garden.

The weather was so calm and nice.

I climbed up the tree and sat on one of the branches, taking in the beautiful scenery in front me. The red leaves shedding from the trees, the big lake filled with water lilies and flock of birds soaring in the crystal clear blue sky. I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath of the nature's fresh air. I almost doze off until I heard someone singing a song, I followed the voice and it leaded me to a small pavilion beside the lake.

I jumped off the tree and landed on the ground. I quietly walked towards the pavilion and took a look inside it. I stood still, amazed by what I saw.

Inside the pavilion, there was a beautiful girl in white and blue hanbok, doing some embroidery work.

She looks so serene and pretty. Her voice was gentle and soothing, which I could listen to forever.

From that day, she was always on my mind. I just couldn't forget her face and her beautiful voice which I want to listen to again.

"Your majesty, you have to get ready" the eunuch said. I raised up from my seat and stood in front of the mirror, letting the eunuchs do the work. I got dressed and walked out of my chambers. I exited out of the palace and I got into the carriage and my sister was already seated, holding her fan. The carriage started to move, making its way to the main palace.

"Oppa, did you get the gifts?" Yeona asked me.

"Yes" I nodded.

"The wine?"

"Hmm yeah"

"Special herbs?"

I nodded, getting a bit annoyed.

"Jewelleries and silk cloths?" She asked again.

"I got everything, so can you keep your mouth shut?" I asked, giving a forced smile.

"Rude" she scoffed, rolling her eyes.

After a while, the carriage stopped and a guard open the door. I got out and lent a hand to my sister. She took my hand and stepped out of the carriage. The guards bowed down out of respect and got back up.

A female came up to us and bowed down,

"Greetings to your Majesty and your royal highness. I'm Hwang Byeol, general warrior of the imperial army. It's a pleasure to meet you both"

"Hwang Byeol? The general warrior who led the army of 1000 to victory by defeating 5000 rebel soldiers?! I admire you! You're my friend now!" My sister exclaimed.

"Ah..I'm flattered and honoured to be your friend" Byeol blushed.

"Great! Can you teach me some sword tricks? I really want-" I covered her mouth, stopping her blabbering.

"It's nice to meet you, General Hwang. Shall we go in?" I asked, still covering my sister's mouth. The general nods and walked in. I winced and removed my hand because my evil sister bit my fingers.

"Are you crazy?" I asked her.

"Yes I am!" She said.

"Byeol! Wait! I'm coming with you!" She called, running after the general. I sighed in frustration, but entered inside the entrance.

"Hey hyung!" Hoseok came towards me, spreading his arms wide apart to hug me but I avoided his hug.

"You're still the same as before" Hoseok laughed.

"How are you?" I asked him.

"I'm doing great" he said, smiling brightly.

"Let's go, my father, Namjoon hyung and Jungkook is waiting for you" he said, keeping an arm around my shoulder. I walked with him, inside a chamber to see Yeona already settled in her place, chatting with the general.

"Greetings to you, your majesty" I greeted the emperor, bowing slightly. I have a lot of respect for him because he helped me lots during the dark days of my empire and he was like a mentor to me.

"Don't be so formal Yoongi, call me Uncle" He said.

"As you wish, uncle" I said, sitting between Namjoon and Yeona. Hoseok and Jungkook sat across to us.

"Yoongi hyung, how is Tae hyung?" Jungkook asked me.

"He's been a little annoying, but besides that he's doing great" I said, making everyone laugh.

"How's with managing the empire?" Namjoon asked me.

"Quite tough but manageable" I told him.

"Uncle, where is Fuyu Unnie?" Yeona asked him.

"She's supposed-" The doors opened, our heads turned around to see her.

There she was....the girl who I was longing to see.

"I'm sorry for being late"
