Her armor was shinny and polished, hair tied up into a ponytail with wavy strands of hair curtaining her temples, eyes sobered with strength and determination instead of tears of redness, skin glowed under the glimpses of sunlight. Not everyone in the room knew of her true identity as the Great General Black Adam yet her aura had spoken for her. Strangely, the people would instinctively dip their heads when she passed by them as if she was silently demanding for respect.
"Xena....", Jimin said under his breath as he watched her strutted down the throne room as if she wasn't the new outcast of Fern Kingdom, as if she didn't crumble in his arms days ago, as if she didn't drench his pillows with sorrowful tears, as if she didn't just asked him to kill her which he didn't even get the chance to respond back when she passed out in his arms. Within three days, Xena managed to change and turned herself into someone even she wouldn't believe would be possible to turn into.
Her long proud strides halted in front of the lieutenant before her gaze tore from Jimin to look him, making him lightly gulped under her strong stare. "It's your job to recruit soldiers, isn't it? And it's also your job to make sure they are well-trained so they don't die like mosquitoes", this is definitely not how anyone should speak to an officer and most DEFINITELY NOT in front of the king himself yet Xena found herself narrowing her eyes at the lieutenant, not backing down on her words.
"Easy for you to say, you're the one who killed more than half our men, General Black Adam", the lieutenant recognized her within a glance, remembered vividly how she fought with Jungkook and Hoseok and that stunts she pulled that caused the entire field to stop and watch her. The people behind them gasped when they heard of her title, immediately recognized her as the General. She's definitely a head turner but not a good one. Stare for too long and you'll be her fists' next victim.
A smirk tugged on her lips, shocking Jimin since it's his first time witnessing her lips forming something other than frowns. "Glad you remembered so I don't have to do any introductions when I train you", now the young king is the one who gasped. His mouth gapped and posture straightened upon hearing her words. If he hadn't known better, Xena was indirectly accepting his offer of training his council member but she was offering to train his officers as well. What's happening?
As if Xena read his questioning mind, she turned to him and walked towards the throne. She stopped in front of the steps with face full of hesitation and second thoughts but suddenly dropping into one knee with an elbow resting one knee and other on the ground while lowering her head.
Jimin sat up in his throne, hands gripping tightly onto the armrests, eyes popping out and jaw dropping, just like the rest of the room. Seeing the General kneeling in front of his throne, in a posture of submission under the royal authorities had the young king's head spinning and eyes almost flashed sliver but his held back his power's excitement.
"Your majesty, if you don't mind. An outcast of Fern Kingdom came in peace, in hopes of renewing her name and life in your kingdom. Do you allow me, Xena Adam, to-...to serve you?", her voice almost cracked as she filed her words formally for the young king. She struggled against her last drop of loyalty towards the Ferns as she voiced before she fully drained it as she turned herself in under his authority. She had offered herself to his eager hands and a line of people witnessed it, there's no backing away up. Unfortunately, there's no road for her back away either. She's an outcast. And Inferno had became her only shelter while the rest of world is on the hunt for her.
Xena slowly stood up with a hand over her heart, positioning herself in utmost vulnerability just like how she presented herself when she first stepped into the castle of Ferns with her little wobbly legs which are now strong and firm, standing in front of her enemy who she had choose to serve because she knew, Jimin would never abandon her like the Ferns because he needs her. Knowing that someone power needs her gave her some sort of comfort that she wouldn't be neglected again. It's too messed up to even comprehend right now but who is she kidding, it's messed up since the moment she was forced into military camp when she's supposed to be playing in the garden.
The stunned face of the young king slowly uplifted into a bright yet dark expression as he stood up from his throne and walked down the steps towards her. Jimin was still in daze as to what had happened. It was unbelievable for him even when it was his plan all along to have her on his side but never expected her to submit herself willingly. She was an untouchable gem of Fern but now here she's in front of him with a hand over her heart as she offered herself to his authority. Fern really messed this up but who the fuck cares.
Jimin slowed down his excited steps as he closed in, trying to test her words. He took steps closer to her until he was invading her personal space which she would immediately swing at him but instead she stood still and unwavering. "General", he called out and she instantly glanced up with her soulless eyes. "Yes, your highness?", she responded with stern and sincere voice, addressing him with much formality that sent shivers down his spine and caused him to breath out shakily as insane excitement engulfed him.
He circled his arms around her shoulders, bringing her into a hug yet it was nothing close to affectionate skinship. It was out of pure submission and to boost his immense feeling of victory and pride. She had granted him the right and he was more than happy to accept it. He finally got what he wanted. The invincible element. Gifting him more power than desired especially when Xena was the one who gave in. His arms tightened around her shoulders as his eyes darkened, feeling the gushing power within him with the girl in his arms. His softly pressed his sinisterly smirking lips against her ear, feeling even more empowered when she didn't resist like she would.
"My General", he darkly whispered. Xena felt his recking power as their bodies connected and she knew she was the reason behind his thrilling energy yet she felt no regret because she doubt the Ferns felt guilty when fake announcing her death. She had no path, no life and no one if she continued down her down route so why don't she just open another herself in this kingdom by siding her with enemy. She might seemed like a devil for doing this but can blame her when her kingdom was the one who disowned her?
After all, Lucifer was thrown out of heaven by his creator.
