The Royal Concubine

Part 29

"Y/n has finally come here!", your aunt squealed in happiness. Everyone was treating you as a celebrity. Of course, you were. The rumours were widespread too. About yours and King's relationship.

Your mother came out of the house, you thought that she would once again boast. But you sensed softness in her eyes. "Mom!", you smiled. She hugged you tightly. Your dress wetted a little. You instantly pulled out to see her face.

"Mom! Don't cry!", You too teared up. "My baby! I missed you", she touched your face. You too burst into tears. "I am sorry for coming late", you said. "I am glad that you came, come let's go inside", she took you in.

She made you sit down. Your aunt gave some space to both of you. "How are you, y/n ah? Is everything alright?", she asked. "I am a good mother", you smiled. "Are you even eating properly, you look unhealthy", you pouted.

"I am more than happy and healthy", she said. You smiled at her. "Y/n ah, I am sorry. I am sorry for a lot of things", she rubbed your palm. "Why are you sorry?", You asked. "I always pressured you", she said.

"No mother, you were worried about me. "I understand you", you said. "Is it tough there? Also what about those rumours about the King marrying you?", she asked.

"It's true, he promised me marriage", you said. "Y/n, you will be okay, right? I am still confused about everything", she said. "Ma! Don't worry, also don't tell anyone about the wedding for now", you said.

"Where is Seo Ji? I couldn't see her anywhere", you said. "She was here before, check her in the room", your mother said. As expected she was in her room. "Hey! Where were you? I was searching for you", you said.

"Huh?!", he scoffed. "Finally you thought about me huh?", She said. You chuckled. "Hey, it's not like that", you hugged her. "I miss you every day", you said to her.

She too hugged you back. "I too missed you, I thought that you would never visit us", she pouted. "Hey!", You slightly hit her arms.

You both spoke about a lot of things. You stayed with her that night. Everything was shared. She was your sister after all. You said about some of the wildest nights.

Finally, you came to the important part. "Seo Ji ah! I want you to accompany me to the doctor tomorrow", you said. "What? Why?", She asked. "Don't freak out! Listen! I want to sterilize my uterus", you said.

"Are you out of mind? You know how painful that is! Also, you need to be healthy to be a trainer", she said. "I can manage, that's why I came out now! I want to gain complete trust", you said.

"You just need to prove over time, losing your ability to give birth is not acceptable. What if the King knows? He won't forgive you y/n ah", she said. You bit your lips.

"He already has a son. He would have pure blood sons as his princes in future. Also, he doesn't need to know", you said. "If it's your choice I will surely support you", she assured.

You had to persuade the doctor a lot. He was scared of consequences if the King knows. You assured that he would never be accused as you did it with your consciousness.

Finally, he accepted half-hearted. You and Seo Ji stayed there for a week. It was hell. The treatment was so painful. Somehow you managed to overcome it. The bleeding made you nauseous.

Seo Ji and the doctor took care of you. You left home before even your mother could process well. She seemed to understand well. Even if you give birth, the child would face so many hardships.

So it's better like this. She convinced herself. She told others that you went on a small trip with Seo Ji as you both were missing each other and wanted to have fun.

Meanwhile in the palace~

The royal families had already started to arrive. The Prince was to be named Taemin. The naming ceremony was also planned as a part of the celebration. A lot of mini and big celebrations happened every day.

As a token of restoring peace, King Lee, his son and daughter Siya too arrived at the palace. Siya was extremely frustrated because her escape plan was ruined before.

She made up her mind to escape before returning to her home. She just waited for a perfect opportunity. They were warmly welcomed even though they were one of the most despised enemies once. Jong Mi introduced herself to Siya. Siya was fascinated to see Jong Mi how much freedom Jong Mi has.

King Lee acted as if his daughter was so precious to him. She just internally scoffed. She was very introverted because she didn't have much opportunity to mingle with friends or whatsoever.

Yena and Jong Mi extended their friendship to her. In the beginning, it was a little awkward for her but soon she adapted. She played with the Prince or went to have fun with Jong Mi.

She was determined to escape and experience such freedom. Three girls were together happily chatting. Yena was taking care of the Prince, she preferred to take care of herself rather than giving him to the maids. "Am I the only one who is missing y/n?", Jong Mi asked. Yena smiled. "I miss her too", she said.

"Eonnie, you take some rest, I will take Princess Siya to the library", Jong Mi said and took her to the library. Namjoon was reading peacefully. "Orabeoni!", she softly called him.

Siya was admiring the library and her eyes finally fell on him. He welcomed the Princess and so she greeted him in return. They spent some time reading and talking about various stuff.

When the night fell, Siya got her clearance. A maid gave her the note that she could escape today. She was going to an island. A guard was waiting for her. She needs to reach the river and take a boat.

She carefully crossed all the odds. When she reached the forest to reach the river, she was stopped. "What are you trying to do Princess?", It was Namjoon and Jungkook. She attempted to run but Namjoon got her firmly.
