At what cost do you let yourself suffer?
To what extent will you allow things to be sacrificed for others?
You loved Jungkook.
Who knows if he loves you back?
You'd be damned to force him to prove it to you when Ella is already a strong evidence of what he really feels for you.
Your thoughts are jumbled but the moment Taehyung caresses your cheek, it's as if every answer you were looking for was right here infront of you.
Taehyung runs his thumb across your lips gently and inhales deeply but in a gentle manner. He stares at you lips, then to your eyes.
"I would love to own this,"
He looks back down to your lips.
"And your body,"
He looks back up again to your eyes.
"Your heart,"
"You, all of you,"
He kisses your cheek.
"And you'll own all of me,
including this country and everything I own,"
He breaths and then closes his eyes.
Mesmerized will be an understatement.
You are lost in him.
His promises, his reassurance, his words, his love
His touch
It wakes something that's in deep slumber.
Taehyung then leans in for another soft peck to your lips.
"Marry me love," he almost whispers.
You don't know what you were thinking but everything he said felt so solid and real. He knew what he wanted, he knew what he was offering. He knew what you needed.
"Yes,"
You nod gently.
"Yes I will marry you your majesty,"
Taehyung's eyes lit up. A beautiful smile spreads accross his face. He stands and lifts you off of the ground and hugs you so tight. You both spin, your skirt flying in the air and so does your hair and his.
He peppers your face with soft kisses and the room was filled with giggles and squeals.
You are both happy.
You might be stuck with the pain Jungkook has inflicted but your contentment overpowers it.
Taehyung is here.
He is always here.
The king himself, the one who saved you right from the start, will marry you. Being South's queen left your mind. All you could think about is that the king is going to marry you.
Taehyung puts you down.
"We'll announce and celebrate our engagement love I promise. But for now, we have to wait. Jungkook and Ella's should pass first," he said with a saddened tone.
You cup his face.
"It's alright my king, I understand," you reassure him.
This is the first time you ever touched his face and the king is floored. Your touch is warm and he already loves it.
"Thank you," he kissed your palm.
"A ring will be presented to you soon," he says.
You chuckle and shake your head.
"Nothing too fancy your majesty," you say making him want to give you something even fancier than what is in his head.
He only nods at that and hugs you tight.
"Do you still want to go back or do you want to call it a night?" He asks.
"We need to go back your majesty,"
"Please, call me Tae,"
You look into his eyes.
"It wouldn't be fair," you protested.
"I am not a king when I am alone with you, I am your lover and I will be your husband soon,"
"All the more that I won't be calling you that. You call me love, I shall address you as such as well," you reason out.
Taehyung realizes that you were against it because you just wanted to call him love too. Taehyung childishly chuckles and wiggles his brow.
"Come on, let me hear it," he urges you.
You smile at him and boldly say,
"My love,"
The king then blushes so hard, the tips of his ears turning red as well. He thought he could handle it but he can't so he tries to look around to busy his eyes.
You caught it and tease him more.
"My love, why won't you look at me?" He chuckles at your teasing but you cup his face to look at you.
Taehyung smiles so wide that his mouth seemed it could split in two.
"It sounds so good when you say it," he admits.
"It sounds so good too when you call me that," you say it back.
Taehyung knew you might still be hurting but he promised himself to erase everything his brother has given you.
Both good and bad.
He loves you too much.
He doesn't care what could happen next. Whether it's from his brother or Yoongi himself. You will be his wife and be the queen of his kingdom. Nothing will ever change his decision.
It is for his kingdom's best.
To have a loving and nurturing queen is what the kingdom needs. But you were not only that, you are also brave and intelligent.
Taehyung sees all that.
All he needs to do is to prepare you, equip you but most importantly, shield you from anything that could harm you. He will be a strong foundation for you.
And he intends to do that because you are his future wife and the queen to-be of his beloved kingdom. He needs to protect what he has and love what he will have.
All for his kingdom
For himself
And always
Always
Always
For you
