Rose stayed rooted on her spot. It was her first time witnessing a vicious side of an Angel before. And to pile up the layers of her agony, that Angel was none other than Jisoo.

Rose was Y/n's childhood friend; she was even Jisoo's bridesmaid on her big day. Rose always maintained a certain distance from Y/n's family. Being a commoner, she knew her limits and never engaged herself in the royal family's matters. Jisoo knew about this very well that's why she went to her house to personally invite her to her wedding. She even requested her to be her bridesmaid. That day Rose understood that Jisoo will be the one who will change the picture of Moonland. One day, she would be successful in eradicating the seeds of partiality, building a new Moonland.

A sad smile appeared on her lips. They all used to be so happy then, sharing each other sorrows and celebrating their joys. Those golden days today appeared like a dream to her as if they never even existed rather, it was all her imagination. Jisoo was like her elder sister but today she was ready to kill her baby, Nancy only because she defied her. Rose's glossy eyes then landed on Sunghoon who was smirking at her. The reality hit her like a whiplash, harsh and painful.

That means the yawning gap between them still existed. She was a fool to think of herself and Nancy as a part of Y/n's family. They were just like a use-and-throw item for them, a pawn to save Y/n. Only Y/n matters to them and for that, they were even ready to shed blood.

But the way Y/n matters to them, Nancy matters to her and for her, she was ready to sacrifice herself. She can't let these covetous, heartless monsters kill her only family. Moreover, her stubbornness will only risk her sister's life.

'Let's accept it, Rose. There's no way out now,', she convinced herself with a heavy heart.

Battling with her heart which was still deterring her from taking such a dangerous step, Rose looked at Sunghoon and spoke in a firm tone, "I am ready to marry you."

Her words were like an alarm that brought Y/n's numb mind back to motion. Y/n swiftly turned her neck and looked at Rose who was walking with Sunghoon back to Moria to complete the ceremony.

"No, Rose, stop. What are you-", she shouted in panic but was cut in midway by Rose who looked at her with glassy eyes.

"Let it be, Y/n. Jisoo Unnie is right. We all are bound to Moonland by certain laws and regulations. I was thinking immaturely before but Unnie is the future Queen of Moonland. She would always think for the benefit of our kingdom."

A scowl appeared on Y/n's face when she heard her fabricated words which didn't sound genuine from any aspect. It was as if she was stressing herself from praising Jisoo. Y/n strode towards Rose with heavy steps, "Your worries are only because of Taehyung's threats, right? Then let me help you. I will talk with Jungkook regarding this. I am sure he'll make him understand. There's no need to get married to Sunghoon.", she spoke while passing a glare to Sunghoon. His jaw instantly got ticked by her words.

Now that was his last straw.

Sunghoon was controlling his rage only because Y/n was once his friend. Hurting Y/n would ruin his plan and also, he didn't want to vandalize his image more in front of Rose. But Y/n's continuous provocation drove him to the edge of losing his calm.

With a jerk, he pulled Rose behind him and looked at his guards. Y/n kept staring at him with confusion but her eyes widened when she was dragged back by the guards away from Sunghoon and Rose. Not only her but they also captured Nancy who started shouting and screaming in fear.

Rose was horrified. She looked at Jisoo who was staring at everything emotionlessly.

"NO!! YOU CAN'T DO THIS SUNGHOON!! UNNIE, TELL THEM TO LEAVE ME!!", Y/n yelled and tried to free herself but her hands were tied behind her back and she was forced to sit on the ground. Finding no other option, she closed her eyes and tried to mutter a spell but her heart jumped in fright hearing Sunghoon's furious voice.
