His Queen [Taekook] ✓

Chapter 4

"Stop sighing, Tae. You've been sighing for the ninth time today! What's wrong with you?" Park Jimin, who stood beside Taehyung's throne asked.

Taehyung sighed again, rubbing his face harshly with his palm, "I kinda regret my decision. How can I lock my mate up?" He muttered, but still audible for Jimin.

"Yeah how can you-Wait what?! When did you find your mate?!" Jimin shook Taehyung's body furiously while the demon just pushed the crazy guy away.

"You ruined my shirt, midget," Taehyung growled while Jimin just shrugged, "I found him yesterday."

"Oh god its a He?! Is he handsome?!" Jimin asked excitedly.

"Yeah, beautiful too. But his health's condition wasn't that great-" "Bastard, you locked him up when his health condition wasn't that great?! I know both of us don't have a heart but your mate might be in danger!" Jimin smacked Taehyung's head as the king groaned in pain.

"I don't want to lock him too! But he keep on wanting to die, Min. He jumped out from the window right in front of my eyes! He'll commit suicide again if I didn't lock him up!" Taehyung explained, huffing loudly.

"That's sad...Did you try to talk to him?" Jimin asked, pity laced in his words. He exhaled a deep breath when Taehyung shook his head, "How about I talk to him?"

"I'm afraid he'll get panic attack if he saw you..." Taehyung stated.

"Do I have a face of Annabelle? How can he get panic attack when he saw me? Well if he really does, you know how much I'm capable of comforting people right?"

"Fine, you got a point there," Taehyung rolled his eyes when he saw Jimin was doing a small victory dance, "Just go now. Don't you dare to hurt him!"

Jimin scoffed at the protection action of the demon, "Says the one who locked his mate."

--------------------------------------------------

Jimin carefully opened the door of the bedroom, stepping inside the room with soft steps. He mentally squealed when he saw a boy sitting on the bed, pouting softly.

He closed the door but the clicking sound of the door startled the boy on the bed. Jungkook backed away, "W-Who are you?!" He trembled heavily as he afraid there's another person to hurt him.

"Hi there! My name is Jimin, what about you?" A wide smile plastered on Jimin's face as he asked the boy with his gentle tone.

"I-I'm Jungkook..." Jungkook gazed at the male cautiously, still doesn't trust the stranger in the room.

"What a nice name you have there!" Jimin sat on the bed, making Jungkook backed away immediately. He winced when he can't back away further because the chain around his thin ankle. The heavy chains were bruising his pale ankle but Jungkook could care less right now.

Jimin who noticed the distaste face of the boy quickly said, "Don't worry, I'm not here to hurt you or something! Please trust me!" He tried to unlock the chain around Jungkook's ankle but damn, only Kim Taehyung can unlock the chain.

"Stupid Kim Taehyung," Jimin cursed softly, "Are you okay?" He asked Jungkook.

"I-If I said I'm not, w-will you let me go?" Jungkook stuttered, staring the male with his wide bambi eyes.

"I can't. It's against the rule, baby. You're the king's mate, you're not allow to leave. If you leave, the kingdom will collapse and you'll get burned into ashes!"

"You m-must be mistaken! I-I'm not the k-king's mate!"

Jimin patted Jungkook's hair as the boy flinched at the touch, "You are, Jungkook. Taehyung might be dumb but his sense was never wronged. You're indeed the king of demons' mate."

Jungkook was stunned. He stared at the male in front of him in disbelief, shaking his head rapidly, "I'm not! I-I..." his lips wobbled, tears forming in his eyes, "D-Demons are not true-" "Alright baby, calm down. Demons are all fake, okay?" Jimin calmed the boy before he gets panic attack.

"Now let's leave the matter aside. Tell me, why do you want to die that desperately?" Jimin questioned.

Jungkook pursed his lips, debating whether he should said the truth or not. Seeing the hesitated look of the boy, Jimin continued, "I can help you in whatever you want, well of course if you want to leave, I can't help you but I can help you with other things."

"I-I..." Tears started to fall from Jungkook's eyes one by one, "My mother abused me, no o-one loves me in this w-world...Dying is the b-best way to end e-everything..."

Jimin's heart clenched as he looked at the depressed face of the boy, "Your mom is so cruel! How can she hurt an innocent soul like you?!" Jimin sighed deeply, "And dying was never the best way to solve problem. It's the most pathetic, most useless way! Look at you, you're barely 20 and you claimed that no one loves you? You still have so much time to live and you don't know your future! What if one day someone loves you, while you're already dead?"

The whole room went silent after Jimin finished his sentence, only Jungkook's sobbing sound could be heard.

"Y-You're right..." Jungkook wiped off his tears, sitting up, "But who w-will loves me?"

"That's left for you to discover, baby," Jimin winked at Jungkook, "But I know two person for sure loves you the most! One is your mate, the king of demon. And another..." Jimin hugged the boy tightly, "Another one is me! I'm gonna treat you as my baby brother from now on! You're damn cute!!!" Jimin squealed, squishing Jungkook's cheeks with his hands.

Heat rushes to Jungkook's face as he heard the compliment, "T-Thank you, Minnie hyung..." Jungkook's eyebrows creased to a frown, "But the king of demons hates me! He l-locked me up!"

"That dumbass just don't know how to express himself! He locked you up because he's afraid of you commit suicide again." Jimin stroked Jungkook's fluffy hair to his ears, "Forgive him and give him a chance?"

Jungkook give Jimin a hesitating nod, "A-Alright..."
