Author's POV
Y/N, welcome to your kingdom." Jisoo said as she held Y/N's hand and gently led her towards the enormous glass walls.
As soon as Y/N's reflection hit the glass, the aura around them brightened as the soothing melody increased its volume. It was the sign. The lost queen had finally come back.
"I missed this place so much," Y/N said in relief as she took in her surroundings. Every corner of this realm was full of memories. She remembered walking around with her mother, observing and playing around at the same time. In her mother's eyes, everybody was equal, nobody was a master nor a servant. That's how Y/N thought she'd keep her people. She'd follow in her mother's steps and values.
"Let's go, you have to meet someone important. He's been waiting for your arrival." Lisa said as she took her hand and started leading her up the bridges to the highest elevation surrounded by gardens.
Walking up the steps, Y/N turned back and reached out for Taehyung's hand. "There are roses here, be careful." Taehyung lightly smiled at her actions. He was the one who was supposed to protect her but turns out that it's the other way around.
He slipped his hand out of hers and clasped his hands over hers. "There are thorns among the roses too. Be careful."
The four angels awkwardly looked at each other and tried to hide the embarrassment of the distraction their presence may be causing the two.
Rose looked around, not being able to handle it anymore, she loudly spoke out, getting the couple's attention. "Let's go, shall we? He must be waiting."
Taehyung was confused. 'Who's waiting for her so desperately?' As the doors to the grand palace opened up, the group was immediately welcomed in with a majestic view. The clear crystal floors glistered with the light and the large windows showed the ever-so-beautiful live portraits of Enchanta.
Taehyung's POV
This place is amazing. It's quite opposite to the Dark World, it has calming rays of light in every corner and this place is so quiet. Back in the Dark World, I realised that I was born into adaption of continuously hearing the screeching of the black crows and the gurgling of bodies in the lava. I never knew that I'd get to experience something like this ever in my life.
Walking further in, we were greeted by a man standing in the centre of the palace with his back facing us. They called him the Wisler or something. Hearing the clicking of our footsteps, he slowly turned in our direction when I finally got to see his face. His eyes were completely white, to some, it was thought to be a scary kind of white, however, his eyes were beautiful and captivating. It was an old man whose beard was almost twice his height.
'How does he even walk with a beard that long? Does he never trip on them?'
"Your Royal Highness Y/N." The old man spoke up, walking up to Y/N. "I've been anxious for your arrival."
'How did this dude know that it was Y/N and how did he know where she stood? Is he blind or does he think of us as idiots?'
"I see that you have finally gained all the knowledge of your life as an Enchantan royal and you've also found the truth of your parents. As per our rules and rituals, the next queen is crowned on the spot as soon as her mother dies however, you had a different case. You will have to unleash your powers and be rightfully crowned to be the queen of Enchanta." The Wisler dude reached out for Y/N's hands as he clasped them into his own. "I know that all this was difficult you have to hang on. I know and have seen how strong and dangerous you can be."
'Look at this dude... GET YOUR HANDS OFF HER!!!'
My mind kept playing imaginary battles between me and this old hag as I kept my calm composure and relentlessly killed him again and again in my thoughts. Yup, the evil in me was spiking.
"To unleash your powers, we will start when the sun starts to set. That is the best time to summon the powers out of you."

Author's POV
The moon hung low in the night sky, casting an eerie glow over the desolate landscape. Y/N stood at the centre of an ancient ritual circle, surrounded by the lingering scent of incense and the hushed whispers of the four angels. The air crackled with otherworldly energy as the final words of the incantation echoed through the cavernous chamber.
The Wisler, an old figure draped in robes adorned with arcane symbols, raised a silver vile filled with a potion that glowed with an ethereal light. Y/N's heart pounded in her chest as she braced herself for what was to come. This was the culmination of months of preparation, a journey that had pushed her to the limits of her physical and mental endurance.
As the potion touched her lips, a searing pain surged through Y/N's body. It felt as if a thousand flames danced beneath her skin, each one awakening a dormant power within her. She clenched her fists, gritting her teeth against the agony that threatened to consume her. The Wisler continued chanting, his voice a melodic hum that reverberated through the ancient chamber.
The transformation was swift and profound. Y/N could feel her very essence changing, evolving into something beyond human. Her senses heightened, and a surge of newfound strength coursed through her veins. When the pain finally subsided, she opened her eyes to a world that seemed both familiar and alien.
Her reflection in the mirror revealed a woman transformed. Gone was the ordinary Y/N, replaced by a figure of unearthly beauty. Her eyes glowed with an inner light, and a subtle aura surrounded her like a veil of enchantment. She touched her face, marvelling at the smoothness of her skin and the silken cascade of her hair.
The Wisler bowed in acknowledgement of the successful ritual. "You are reborn, Y/N," he declared, his voice resonating with ancient wisdom. "Embrace your newfound power, for it is the key to restoring balance to the realms."
The task at hand loomed large in Y/N's mind. Taehyung, her steadfast companion, stood nearby, his eyes filled with a mix of awe and concern. Together, they were destined to face Gong Yoo, the dark force that threatened to plunge the world into eternal night.
~Another Time Skipeu~
Taehyung stood by the large windows, throwing his gaze at the calming realm of Enchanta. It was quite different to his world. He missed his surroundings and his group members the most, he felt different here and homesick. In a matter of minutes in Enchanta, he realised how Y/N would have felt when he had taken her to the Dark World.
A weird feeling washed his colour away. It wasn't guilt. He knew that it wasn't guilty. He felt something that couldn't even be described, and that's how he felt. He leaned his head on the window in front of him as he let out a long sigh.
Two gentle hands wrapped around his waist as she buried her face into his back. A small smile crept up his face as he continued to enjoy the calming silence around them.
"You know, I'd be doing other things than standing here and waiting for you to cheer up right?" Y/N broke the silence as she shifted her head up, trying to tiptoe and place her chin on his shoulder.
"Like what?" Taheyung asked her as he turned his head towards her face on his shoulder.
"Oh, I don't know. Maybe slow dancing in the ballroom with someone I love."
"And who would that be?"
"You know..." Y/N quietly said as she let go and stood in front of him. "Kim Taehyung, can I have a dance with you? Will you be the one who fulfils my childhood dream of dancing in a ballroom?"
Taehyung smiled at her as he held her hand and bent to her eye level. "I thought you said that people grow up, that's why it's called a childhood dream? I mean like your words, not mine."
"Fine then, I'll dance with some other guy." Just as Y/N started walking away, Taehyung grabbed her hand and pulled her towards him, trapping her in his grip.
"Yes. Yes Y/N L/N, it'll be my absolute honour to have this dance with you." Y/N smiled at his cute claims
In the hushed stillness of the enchanted ballroom, Y/N and Taehyung found themselves alone, bathed in the soft glow of ethereal moonlight filtering through celestial windows. The air was filled with the faint strains of a celestial melody as if the very walls of the ballroom whispered secrets of forgotten dances and timeless romances.
Y/N, adorned in a gown that shimmered with the radiance of starlight, stood with Taehyung. The hem of her gown brushed the celestial floor, scattering stardust with each graceful step. Taehyung, in his dark regalia, exuded an otherworldly charm that resonated with both the shadows and the faint light that clung to him. As they embraced in the centre of the ballroom, a gentle celestial waltz played, carried by unseen instruments that echoed through the grand space.
The soft notes intertwined with the murmur of the cosmic winds, creating a melody that seemed to encapsulate the very essence of their union. The dance unfolded with an almost surreal elegance. Both Y/N and Taehyung moved in harmony, their steps guided by a celestial rhythm that transcended mortal understanding. Each movement carried a weight of unspoken emotions—love that defied the boundaries of their disparate origins, and a shared destiny that stretched across the celestial expanse. In the quiet intimacy of the ballroom, the world outside ceased to exist.
The echoes of their footsteps resonated with the timeless stories embedded in the ballroom's celestial walls. Y/N's eyes, aglow with the wisdom of her angelic lineage, met Taehyung's, where shadows and glimmers of celestial light coexisted in a delicate balance. As they swayed to the celestial waltz, the boundaries between the angelic and demonic realms blurred. The dance became a metaphor for their journey—an intricate weaving of light and darkness, a delicate basket of love amid cosmic discord.
In that ephemeral moment, the enchanted ballroom held the secrets of a celestial union, where an angelic queen and a demon king discovered the transformative power of a love that defied the very fabric of their enchanted world. The slow dance unfolded as a celestial testament to the beauty that emerges when disparate souls find solace in each other's arms, embraced by the timeless magic of the empty ballroom that bore witness to their celestial union.
Taehyung shifted his head closer to her ear.
"Whatever happens tomorrow, I want you to know that I love..."
