‡Winter's POV‡
"So.......care to tell me?"Yeri unnie kept on nudging me
I stopped eating and looked at her,she was smiling and waiting for my answer
"Get out unnie,I'm trying to eat"I said and she frowned
"No fair I was just gonna ask"she said and pouted at me before sitting down next to me
"What is it?"I asked and continued eating
"Didn't you see Karina yesterday at the woods?"Yeri unnie asked and I nodded
"Did she ever tell you about something beyond the woods? Because I can tell she's been there a couple of times"She said and I looked at her weirdly
"No? Not really why?"I asked and she sighed and at that same moment my father entered
"Minjeong"He called out and I immediately stood up looking at him
"Karina.........why was she at the woods yesterday with a woman? Didn't you say she was with her brother?"He asked frantically and I nodded
"She said she was finding her keys with her brother,what's the matter?"I asked and he looked worried
"A guard saw Karina,she was having a conversation with the Queen of Underworld and just earlier an invitation came to our castle"He said and my eyes grew
Karina? With the Queen of Underworld?......wait what is underworld?
"What is underworld father?"I asked and he looked at me
"Winter I haven't told you but beyond the forest is another island it is where Vampires live,our polar opposites.We established a wall in the forest as an agreement that they will never attack us once again after the Royal guard incident"He said and my heart beated fast
"The island is called the Underworld and only vampires and werewolves can come there but how did Karina enter? How did she go beyond the woods?"He asked and I didn't know what to answer
"Hey winter!"A voice suddenly echoed through the hallway and I rushed out of the dining hall
I looked at the gate and Karina was there smilingly waving at me as guards stop her from entering
"Let her in"I said and the guards let her pass through
She walked towards me and I suddenly felt an eerie aura around her........it felt scary and horrible.....
"Have you heard? The wall is gone from the forest"she said and I gulped
My father came out and looked at Karina,Karina bowed and my father came closer
"Karina.......who are you?"he asked leaning his head up and Karina held her head up high
"Sir do not look down on me.......I don't like people looking down at me"She said and suddenly my father was kneeling looking up at Karina
"Underworld is giving your people an invitation to our Island to have a gathering for what will happen next, between the islands as the walls have been destroyed"Karina suddenly turned black and she transformed into a guy
"Thank you for the service Miss Minjeong,I can see you have a very great connection with Miss Jimin.Don't worry you'll see her eventually once your father announces that you will be gathered at our Island"The guy said and in a blink of an eye he was gone
I helped my father stand up as he looked at our gates
"Choi Minho..........you're still as cocky as your best friend"my father Whispered and he looked at me
"Get the elysian's we need to make an announcement"he said and I nodded
I quickly ran off into the center of the island and released my fairy
"Belle tell NingNing and the Elysians to come to the palace,there will be an announcement"I said and my fairy flew off into the tall tree Infront of us
The elysians glided down and looked at me worriedly as it was a sudden call
"My father will be giving an announcement,You elysian's will gather the people of Cheongug in the castle for the sudden news"I said and they all flew to the houses of our people
My fairy came back into my hand and dissolved becoming a part of me again as I rushed back to the castle,many people have already gathered and I made my way through them and went next to my sister's
"Where's Karina?"Irene Unnie asked and I looked at her,I couldn't answer
"I........don't know"I said unsure and looked at the crowd trying to see if Karina was there
But to my avail......she was not,it's either she has been taken by the guy earlier or........she's not part of us
"Today I have gathered you,my people to give a sudden announcement"My father started speaking and everyone became quiet and listened
"We will be gathering at the Castle of Underworld to have a conversation between the islands as it seems that the border wall has been broken"He added and people started murmuring while others are just shocked
"Ah I see you have made the announcement"A guy in a black suit suddenly entered and walked towards my father
Guards tried to stop him but they all fell to their knees and with their heads looking up as the guy kept advancing towards my father,I quickly ran infront of him but he got a grip on my hand
"Your majesty it seems that your princess is a bit of an.......unwelcoming person"He said and looked at me
I looked at my father and he shook his head telling me to not do anything,the guy letted my hand go and went up to my father
"I am Kim Jong In of Underworld,Kai of the twelve Meticulous and I have been sent here by our Queen to tell everyone in your island to wear proper attires and a mask to hide your identity because the higher ups will be coming and they must not know about the commotion that is happening between our borders"The guy spoke
Suddenly wolves entered the castle but no one panicked as the wolves turned into guys holding a bunch of masks
"You will have to use these to avoid speculations on your identity and do not worry no harm will be done with your people as we just want to talk about the matter"The Kai guy said again before walking down and out the gates
The wolf guys settled the masks down before turning into wolves again and running off
I went towards the masks that they have left and one caught my eye..........it had my name in it
'Minjeong Kim,Princess of Cheongug'
I took it and went back to my place,my sister's took notice that it had my name on it and decided to look at it more
"Why is yours different?"They asked and I shook my head because I didn't know the reason either
"Everyone get ready we will be heading to Hagye" my father announced and everyone went out
‡Karina's POV‡
"Let me go!!"I yelled as I tried to remove the ties on my hands
"You lied Miss Jimin I thought you haven't been to the island? Why does it seem that the princess's father knows of you?"this dude who red my mind before asked me
"Fine I did lie so what?"I asked and he smirked before removing my ties
"I wanted to hear it from you,well done Princess now get yourself ready as the people of Cheongug will come here tonight for the talk of the Border wall"he said and handed me a mask and a dress
Before he went out he looked at me and raised his eyebrow
"If you don't want me to call you by your full name don't call me 'Dude' I'll have you know I am your uncle.I'm Choi Minho of the Five Prime"he said and went out
My jaw dropped as I realized who he was.........he's my father's best friend and my mother's somewhat of a brother.I've only heard of him from mom but I've never seen him before
"He's a dick of an uncle"I said to myself and I suddenly heard a laugh
"He is isn't he?"Teacher Kai suddenly entered the dungeon
"Karina do you know why Minho is keeping his eyes on a girl in Cheongug?"He asked and I furrowed my eyebrows
"It appears that he changed one of the masks that was given to Cheongug as the higher ups will also come for a grand ball that was settled by your mother a few days ago"He added and I shook my head
I bowed to him before going back to my house,I looked at the mask and it had my name on it
'Jimin Yoo,Princess of Hagye'
Why does this have to be indicated in my mask?
I didn't bother anymore and quickly got dressed,my heart beated faster at the thought of Winter coming to our Island and might find out who I am
"Calm down Karina it'll be fine"I said to myself and putted on my mask
I opened my door and suddenly the whole pack of my cousin wolves were all outside
"We were told to escort you to the palace as the Wanderer's of death will be released said by the higher ups"Jaehyun oppa said and I nodded
They made a barrier infront,on the side and on the back of me as if making a circle to protect me as we heard the wings of the Wanderer's
"Miss Yoo Jimin"The supreme suddenly flew towards us with his Wanderer and looked at me
"Would you mind if I take the princess to the palace?"Haruto said as he flew towards us and stopping next to his father
"I do mind especially when I'm not with her"Taeyong oppa said and I sighed
"Fine come with us then"Haruto said and helped me get onto the back of his wanderer as Taeyong oppa held onto the feet of the wanderer
"Be careful not to fall"I said and Taeyong oppa nodded at me
"Why does he have to come all the time whenever my brother tells me to get close to you"Haruto asked me and I was about to answer but I got interrupted by the yelling Taeyong below us
"I can hear you.You little dipshit I was assigned as a royal companion of the princess and as the leader of the pack that's why,so don't think you can just suddenly take the princess without my consent"Taeyong oppa yelled and Haruto didn't talk anymore
We arrived at the palace and I quickly got off before haruto escorted me down,Taeyong oppa immediately held my hand and we ran to the Ballroom
"Annoying kid"He said and I nodded my head as we made our way through the crowd
We reached the front of the ballroom where my mother and the supreme was standing at and suddenly horses could be heard from outside
"You've invited the people of Cheongug I see........you're getting along well even with the incident happening"The supreme said and looked at me
I took my eyes away from him and looked at the crowd,Taeyong oppa was still beside me looking at everyone who comes near
"We didn't even need the mask,he could already sense the people"I whispered to Taeyong oppa and I suddenly heard a chuckle from the supreme
"Smart Princess"He said and looked at the door
Haruto came in and looked at Taeyong oppa as if he was already stabbing him in his mind,Taeyong oppa looked back at him and growled which made him rush to his father
"Coward,he just hid behind his father"Taeyong oppa said and smirked
"Well his father has the power so..." I whispered and he laughed quietly
"Ah! The King of Cheongug! It's a pleasure meeting you here"The supreme greeted as Winter's father came in
My eyes immediately landed on her,she was wearing a white mask with her name on it.Her dress was glittering blue
"This must be your princess,It's a pleasure to meet you Miss Minjeong Kim.I am The Supreme,the highest of the islands"He introduced himself and winter bowed
She suddenly looked at me and I quickly knew she already knows since my name is on the mask as well
"We've met again"My mother said as the supreme walked away
"I didn't think we'd meet like this again"Winter's father said and my mother suddenly pulled me to her
"This is the Princess of Hagye,Yoo Jimin my descendant"She said and Winter's father looked at me coldly
"This is the Princess of Cheongug,Kim Minjeong my descendant"He said and pulled winter to her
Winter and I made eye contact but we both looked away immediately
"Don't hide it anymore Jimin,I've known everything since the start"My mother whispered into my ear which made me shiver
A/N:What do you think will happen next after this meeting and revelations of secrets?
