Queen and her wolfgang

32

Yura's POV

(Next day)

"Queen Yun-yeong, the urn is ready" maid said from outside my room

I didn't answer and continued staring at my face. I finished getting ready so early and just stayed here in front of the mirror, staring at myself. I don't know what's gotten into me but I feel like something went wrong.

I got out of my room, as soon as I left the palace, cars are waiting to leave the palace. Others, who are part of the royal family or our relatives came, to give blessings and show their sincere condolence to Haneul. They found out about Haneul and rushed here.

In front of my car, is the car for Uncle Jacob who is currently holding Haneul's urn. He is already inside, yet I came out late. I got in the car and Uncle Jacob's car drove away, followed by us.

I already knew about Haneul's really identity and that he doesn't want to tell me about it. He thought I didn't know and I pretended like I really don't know. It was hard to pretend when I knew in myself he feared that one day I would know about it.

Uncle Jacob's fault wasn't considered as his. They are not related and he shouldn't be blamed or punished for that. Also, even if they are really related, he is not going to be punished for it. He didn't do anything wrong. It was all Uncle Jacob's fault.

As we arrived at the location where Haneul will be buried, we got out of the car and went to the part where the royal family was buried. We do all have our own place to be bury those who died.

Uncle Jacob went to the front and put Haneul's urn on the table where it will be bless first before we bury it. He stood there for a couple of seconds and went to sit down. The priest signaled me to go in front.

I hesitated, but I have to go. I went to the front and stood there with nothing on my mind. I am lost.

"You should say a couple of things for Haneul" priest told me

I nodded and faced the people who came for Haneul. I tried to wander my eyes around to see everyone, but I guess he never had any friends, except for me.

"I am speechless for what happened. I never expected anything to happen in a glimpse. I left the palace for something important. He even talked to me before I left. It was too sudden. I wasn't prepared to lose another person whom I adore the most. I lost my Mom, Dad is still unconscious, Haneul left me. Right now... I don't have anyone with me"

I looked down.

"I grew up having Haneul with me. We are in the same age. Can you all believe it? He is my personal security when were still young. Then, months after, I found out he is my cousin, whom Uncle Jacob adopted. Dad never trusted anyone when it comes to me, but when Haneul came, he gave his full trust. Things are hard for me now that I have to be alone for the next few days, and find someone who will do better than him. And I don't think there is someone who could do better. Haneul will always be the best for me, always"

I took the sword from the head of security and placed it on top of Haneul's urn.

"You are loyal and kind. Those words are enough to describe a great young man like you. I thank you for your honesty and service as my personal security. Thank you, young man"

I wiped my tears...

"From this day, you will be remembered as a hero"

___________________________

Everyone left, yet here I am, sitting where Haneul is. Staying here shouldn't be what I am doing, they said. Staying here wasn't enough for the service you did as my security.

You are not just my personal security, assistant or our loyal servant. You are my best friend, cousin and the knight of a princess' life. I wanted to watch you quit your job and create your own family, but I guess you will be watching me create mine.

"Are you happy?"

I guess you used the sky to answer my question. It suddenly started raining, even though the sky is blue. How can you give me a confusing answer.

"He is not" a voice said as someone covered me from the rain using the umbrella

"Chan?" I called and stood up

"It wasn't just me who went here. All the werewolves did. I just stayed, as someone who needs to protect the King, I assume I will have to protect you" Chan smiled at me

The rain slowly stopped.

"I assume he is happy now. He probably wanted to hear from someone, that you will be safe. He will be in peace now because you are safe. You just have to say goodbye and let him go" Chan messed up my hair using his left hand "The rain is not good for you. A Queen never take rest. You don't have day off. You will work everyday, even though it is holiday. It'll be different now, princess. You have to be healthy and strong"

"I am healthy and strong"

"But you are not okay" he faked a smile
