Not just any peasant ~Taekook

Chapter 1

AUTHOR POV

Before I start this book, a big thanks to Taekookie_Teakookies for letting me continue this story. I am going to be taking a lot of the basic set up plot with a few minor changes here and there. Hope you enjoy K00kies!!

~~~

 It was the month of December, the paths outside their house had been covered with snow. A boy was lying on the snow, enjoying the comfort it provided. Fear was all he had know since childhood so this gave him cover. The boy was ethereal with milk smooth skin and black silky hair. His mole on the nose made the boy look like a piece of art.

His simple and plain dress looked fit for the boy. A big white top with plain black bottoms.

"Taehyung-ah what are you doing? I have told you so many times, something could happen so don't go outside alone" his mother scolded him

"Mother, I want to live my life, I want to be outside and free. I am 18 mother, how long do I need to stay locked up" The boy whined to his mother.  

"I know my boy, but I am worried for you. Your condition isn't well" Taehyung's mother replied with a frown removing the hair from his eyes.

"Fine, I'll go and help up with the dinner mother" Taehyung sighed as he went inside

"I'm sorry my boy.." His mother whispered tears threatening to spill 

"Mother, look, its a letter from the king" exclaimed Taehyung brightly.

He had always envied the palace and king. The king was known for his generous and kind personality. Taehyung had always wanted to be like him. But sadly he was just a mere peasant and wouldn't be able to rule the kingdom even if he wanted to.

"Dear citizen of Jeonk,

You are invited to the special ball being held tomorrow for the choosing of Prince Jeon's husband. Bring your sons only.

King Jeon"

"This is a great opportunity Taehyung-ah, let's go shopping and find some dashing suits for you. You need to be his husband" shouted his mother with a big smile on her face.

"Mother, but- what if- but I don't want to bet married right now, not with what I have" Taehyung whined while pouting cutely.

"Taehyung-ah try to understand. I want you to live a good and happy life for as long as you will" Taehyung's mother pleaded

"Fine, but this is just for you. I want to see you happy and I will be by your side no matter what" Taehyung said sighing in defeat

~TIME SKIP AFTER SHOPPING~

Taehyung got back home and went into his room. After he brushed and showered he shouted "I'm not hungry mother, I will be sleeping"

"Ok Taehyung-ah"

Taehyung sighed and plopped on his bed thinking about the big day ahead. He didn't even know what the prince looked like. Taehyung hadn't been allowed out of the house a lot and was inside almost 24/7 so going out tomorrow would be a refreshing start.

On the same time he was scared that if he got chosen to be the prince's husband would the prince actually treat him nicely. What if he abused Taehyung.

'Is he hot?'

'Is he going to like me'

'Should I just run away'

'No, I need to stay by mother'

As these countless thoughts filled Taehyung's head he soon fell asleep thinking.

~NEXT MORNING~

Taehyung came downstairs after rubbing his eyes as his mother didn't let him sleep since they had to leave.

"Taehyung quickly freshen up and dress up. We need to leave fast and you haven't even eaten yet"

"Yes mother"

Taehyung did what his mother said and came back to eat.

"Mother what if I don't get chosen ?" Taehyung asks as he didn't want his mother to be said if he wasn't chosen

"Nothing then Taehyung-ah, we will continue our life normally"

"Ok mother"

"Get up now Taehyung, we need to leave palli(fast)"

To say Taehyung was happy was an understatement. He was feeling absolutely euphoric after getting out of the house. After they entered the castle area, Taehyung asked his mother

"Mother, can I go and explore a bit ?"

"Sure boy, but just don't get lost" 

Taehyung gave a quick nod as he hurried off to explore the grounds. 

"This place is amazing-" He was exploring when he suddenly bumped into someone

"I am very sorry sir, I wasn't looking ahead" Taehyung bowed as he apologized 

"Its fine" The other man grinned

"If you don't mid sir, may I ask why they are holding a ball of peasants" Taehyung asked innocently

"Ahh, its said that there was a boy- a peasant say so that caught the prince's eye but had disappeared"

 'So it was to find a specific boy. There is no way I will be chosen now. I hope mother is not too disappointed' Taehyung thought

"Oh how rude of me, my name is Taehyung good sir, what about you?" Taehyung replied bowing again

"Oh you have such good manners, I am Jung Hoseok, call me Hoseok for short" The red head man replied giving a bright smile

"Thank you its all thanks to my mother" the small boy said

"Well she taught you some good manners, it suits a beauty like you" The red head said grinning

"O-oh.. Thank you" replied Taehyung with a shade of pink crimson rising up to his cheeks

Suddenly a raven-haired boy intervened 

"Stop flirting Hoseok"

"Yes sir" replied the red head with a bow

The raven haired pointed at Taehyung and said

"You follow me"

Taehyung was confused but still followed behind like a lost puppy

"I didn't introduce myself, Hello my name is Kim Taehyung what's yours?"

"Jungkook, Jeon Jungkook"

'That sounds familiar, where did I hear that before?' Taehyung questioned himself

"We're here" said Jungkook

He pulled Taehyung besides himself in front of the crowd while the other seemed to be in a daze.

"This is Kim Taehyung, he is the chosen husband and he's mine. If anybody tries to touch him that person will be beheaded" Jungkook addressed the crowd in front of him

"Wai-wait what"
