When Gods Became Evil (Twice and ITZY Yeji x Reader)

The Flashback: My Destiny, My Duty.

"Good day, my child." A woman's voice echoed throughout the large, quiet room. She was taking a meal at the large, rectangular table.

I was peeking at her, nervous.

It was because I wanna talk to her about something that she didn't want to like for the rest of her life.

She rarely got home, but I know her well.

I showed up as I walked slowly, trying to keep my posture as much as I can, not making a single mistake.

"G-Good day, Mummy." I replied. Shit, I messed up already.

"It's been six thousand years since you were born and you're still stuttering in front of the queen." She said, I was hearing some knife and fork scratching on her plate.

I hated her, not that she was very strict.

She and my father, they only got home every few decades, even a few centuries.

Even a millennia.

I can even barely remember when was the last time they have bonded with me.

"I'm sorry, mummy." I mumbled.

"Sit down, my child." She commanded.

"Yes, mummy." I sat down at the other side of the table and put the napkin on my lap as the servants put the dishes in front of me, removing its cloches out of the plates.

"We have something to talk to so please put all of your attention on me." She said as she was cutting the food.

"Well, actually... I also have something to-"

"Me. First."

I looked down, scared and nervous.

I couldn't stand my mom's presence, she was too scary and too intimidating to disobey her.

I was scared to get a punishment once again, like the last time I went against her way of thinking.

"Me and your father talked about something." She informed as she put the knife and fork on the side of the plate as she get the cloth and tapped it on her lips repeatedly. "And I think it's time for you to... get along with one of the royals and soon take my throne when the time comes. Maybe in seven to eight thousand years in the future."

"Ew, incest." I thought.

"Have you finished your statement, mummy?" I asked, trying not to stutter.

I thought it was really difficult showing some manners and discipline towards my parents.

I have been taught by my tutors since I was born and yet, I still keep forgetting how to be like a normal royal.

That was why I kept thinking I wasn't the kid they wanted me to be.

"I have finished, what do you want to talk about?" She asked as she looked at me with curiosity in her eyes.

I gripped the cloth on my thighs as I was still looking down, thinking how would she react if I said what I have been longing for.

But what about my dream of becoming an explorer of the cosmos if I didn't say it to her?

I will not become like Dahyun and be a queen of this planet instead unless if I give it a try, right?

"Mummy..." I paused for a bit as I took a deep breath to gain courage. "I think your throne was not meant to be for me, I don't fit to be a queen."

"What do you mean?" She was surprised, she was not gonna like what I was about to say.

"Well... I want to be something else, like travelling the universe." I mumbled but enough for her to hear it.
