Y/N, the princess of South Korea, has to get married. Jungkook, your best friend, promises you that he will do everything in his power to marry you, but the problem was... it was a battle to the death.
two people working on this book, sorry both of...
Your father, the king, has chosen two of his loyal subjects to fight to the death in order to take your hand, and the worst part about it is that Jungkook was one of those men. Jungkook was your childhood friend, you and him have known each other since forever. He promised you he would do all in his power to marry you so you could be happy with him, but you were starting to get worried. He has only been practicing sword fighting for two weeks and this was life and death.
Your father had told you about the other man and he seemed to already have liking to him. He was a professional sword fighter and he had been training since he was... 15, I think? You weren't really paying attention to your father, you were terrified.
It was time for the fighting to start and you began getting worried about Jungkook. Your breathing was getting quicker and quicker by the second. You didn't want to loose Jungkook, just like your old friend

You were walking with him. You didn't really know his name and he didn't talk much, well he didn't talk at all, but he was nice.
He always made you smile , just by the little things he did. We would always go to the stands where they sold candied apples , and he would have this cute habit of smelling it first before he ate it. Or how he would always have trouble pealing the mandarins and you would have to help him.
You sat at bench with him, close to a lake where you would always meet up . You and him sat there for a few minutes with silence. Finally you spoke, "You know, I really want to know your name, do you mind telling me?" he just smiled and looked away.
You stood up and put your hands on your hips and said, "Well, if you're not gonna tell me I'm going to have to make up a name for you." You looked around and saw Jungkook walking by.
"Jungkook!" you yelled and started waving your hands around as everyone stared at you, but you didn't mind.
He came running towards you, " Hey, how have you been?"
"Good just here looking at the view with him." you answered and pointed at the boy sitting on the bench. Then you went back to what you were going to ask him.
" So I was thinking of giving him a name, since he won't tell me!" You looked back at the boy, but he only blushed and played with a leaf he had found on the ground. "What do you think we should call him?" You turned back to face Jungkook.
He looked up at the boy ,"Hmmm.... I'm not sure"
"What a help you are" you responded
"I know" he responded sassily
You look back at the boy then down to the leaves whom have been falling due to the season. "I know! How about August? Since we are in the season of Autumn".
'August' looked up at you and gave a beautiful smile.
"Ah, you like it?" you said, he just kept smiling.
"Well I think I better get back. I don't want my mother to get mad at me for not bringing her the ingredients she asked for. Anyways, see you later Y/N!" Jungkook said as he waved you goodbye.
"Tell your mother that I love her pies!" He looked back and gave you a bunny-like smile
"This better not be bribe for something you did!" He shouted back.
Ahh he knows me too well.
Jungkook left to go buy something at one of the markets nearby and it was only you and August. "You know what August? I really like you. Could you do me a favor, if it's okay with you?" you asked, he nodded.
You continued, "Please don't leave me. You are one of the few people that make me happy, a reason to wake up, and smile. So please, don't leave me. To many people have already hurt me." When you stopped talking, you realized that August had a single tear rolling down his face.
"Hey, don't cry. Y-you're going to m-make me cry t-too." You said as your voice started cracking up. You started to pat his back gently and stroking some of the loose hair hanging off his forehead.
Then, all of a sudden, a man came yelling for someone. August immediately stood up and ran to him, so you guessed he was calling for him. You went running after him and saw that there were some people attacking his clan. He went in to fight but you grabbed him just in time. He looked back at you and walked towards you. He hugged you. And then for the first time, he spoke. "I'll be back, I promise." He planted a kiss on your forehead and patted your head, and then, he was gone.
You screamed at the top of your lungs, "YOU BROKE YOUR PROMISE! I THOUGHT YOU WOULD NEVER LEAVE ME!" You said, as tears rolled down your face
You tried to run after him, but a pair of hands wrapped around your waist. You were hopeless.
After that, you waited for the news to see if August was okay. A woman stood at the door and you immediately opened it. She looked at you, and then spoke, "His whole clan died. I'm sorry princess, but... he is dead."
You cried. You cried so much that you thought the world was ending. It felt like you were in a dark room with no way out. Jungkook came and hugged you but it felt like he wasn't even there

You snapped out of your thoughts when a loud horn sounded. They were about to start.
You prepared yourself and watched the two men. You really didn't want to watch, but it was your friend out there, so you felt like you had too. The other guy just stood there with his face covered, you couldn't see his face at all, and Jungkook seemed to be very nervous.
They started. The fight only lasted a few seconds. His sword pointing at his chest. He didn't kill him. You were glad, but terrified of what your father would do. Before he could do anything you stood from your spot and walked toward the men. You looked at Jungkook downhearted, then took a deep breath. You looked at the mysterious man and bowed. You waited for him to say at least anything, but he just stared. Then his arm slowly went up to his face and took the mask down. Your eyes widened.
