Chapter 22: Striking Presence

Fast forward a month later, significant changes had occurred in the lives of Y/N and Taehyung. The legal wheels had turned, and Jiyeon, Minji, and Joon were facing serious consequences for their actions. They were in the midst of a lawsuit for the assault on Y/N. Jiyeon's father, the college principal, had tried to use his influence to bail her out, but he found himself unable to challenge the power of the royal family.

In the month since the assault, Y/N had focused on her college work from home, determined to continue her education while prioritizing her recovery. She was a symbol of resilience and strength, a testament to her unwavering spirit.

In the midst of the legal proceedings against Jiyeon, Minji, and Joon for their assault on Y/N, a highly anticipated press conference was scheduled to reveal the official date of the upcoming royal wedding between the crown prince and Y/N. The grand venue chosen for this momentous occasion was adorned with regal decorations, a backdrop that added to the air of excitement and curiosity.

Reporters gathered at the grand venue, their questions ready, as they anticipated the historic event. The air was filled with excitement and curiosity, for the public had never seen the face of the crown prince, as he had always worn a mask in public. The anticipation and buzz surrounding the event were palpable.

The moment had finally arrived, and the King and Queen, dressed in resplendent regal attire, entered the room. The rustle of their elegant garments echoed through the hall as they made their way to the stage. The Queen's gown shimmered with delicate embroidery, and the King's uniform was adorned with medals of honor, both befitting their royal status.

Their presence was commanding, drawing the undivided attention of the reporters. The Queen, with her poise and grace, exuded a sense of regal authority, while the King's dignified demeanor added a layer of gravitas to the occasion.

In the splendid setting of the Royal Palace, the King began, "Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed members of the press, we have gathered here today to make a momentous announcement. It is our great pleasure to officially declare that the royal wedding between our beloved crown prince, Kim Taehyung, and the remarkable Y/N, a cherished member of our nation, will take place on the 23rd of February next year."

The King's words hung in the air, met with a wave of anticipation and excitement from the reporters. The official date was now set, and the kingdom could mark their calendars for this grand celebration.

With a sense of unity and purpose, the Queen continued, "The upcoming wedding will be a joyous occasion for our entire nation. We are deeply grateful for the outpouring of support and well-wishes we have received from all corners of our kingdom and beyond."

The gathered reporters, their cameras clicking and recording, were captivated by the King and Queen's words. Their poised and composed manner set the tone for the event, and the anticipation in the room grew with each passing moment.

As the press conference reached its pinnacle, a hushed anticipation settled over the room like a heavy shroud. Reporters clutched their microphones, their cameras poised and ready to capture the historic moment. The murmurs of the audience grew more pronounced, their voices blending into a soft crescendo of excitement and curiosity.

As the crowd of reporters leaned forward, poised with microphones and cameras, the King stepped forward to address the audience. His deep, commanding voice resonated through the hall, and the room grew hushed with reverence.

"In the spirit of transparency and unity with our beloved people," the King began, his words carrying the weight of responsibility, "it is with great honor and privilege that we introduce to you the face of the future king, my son, Crown Prince Taehyung."

The moment had arrived. Slowly, with an almost ceremonious grace, Taehyung's gloved fingers reached up to his mask. It was a mask that had concealed his face for years, shrouding him in mystery. As he began to remove it, the room held its breath, the silence palpable.

The mask parted from his face, revealing the features beneath. His eyes, deep and soulful, met the collective gaze of the audience. The gasps that escaped the onlookers were involuntary, a reaction to the sheer magnetism of the crown prince's visage. The whispers that followed were a testament to the impact of his captivating presence.

Taehyung's face was striking, his features chiseled and regal. His eyes held an intensity that seemed to pierce the very souls of those who beheld them. A faint, enigmatic smile graced his lips, an acknowledgment of the historical moment he was sharing with the world.

Y/N, standing beside Taehyung, was a vision of grace and beauty that left the audience awestruck. She wore an elegant gown that accentuated her every feature. The gown was a delicate shade of ivory, with a fitted bodice that highlighted her slender waist and delicate curves. The gown's flowing skirt cascaded to the floor, trailing behind her like a river of silk, creating an ethereal aura around her.

Her hair was expertly styled, cascading in loose waves that framed her face like a cascade of dark chocolate. A tiara adorned her head, glistening with an array of precious gems, symbolizing her imminent status as the future queen.

Y/N's makeup was subtle and refined, enhancing her natural features. Her eyes, the heterochromatic marvels, were highlighted with soft, earthy tones that added depth and mystery. Her lips were adorned with a rosy shade, drawing attention to her warm smile.

The gasps and whispers that rippled through the room were a testament to their appearance. Together, they shared a few heartfelt words about their love and their dedication to serving the kingdom.

In the wake of the press conference, the media frenzy surrounding Taehyung and Y/N reached a fever pitch. The images of the newly unveiled crown prince and his radiant fiancée were splashed across newspapers, magazines, and digital platforms, captivating the public's imagination.
