Mashiho tried standing up but Junkyu held his neck pushing him back

"You clearly said that you would anything, if I let you go right? I'm sure you don't want to mess with me" Junkyu said with an intimidating aura

Mashiho gulped and stared at Junkyu

"From now on, you are in my custody, you won't leave this room or let anyone see you, if any of that happens...I'll kill you" Junkyu said and let go of his neck

"W-What? I don't even come from here! This-This is too much!" Mashiho shouted in disbelief

"Then where exactly are you from?"

"I'm from the south! I'm not a northerner" Mashiho said and Junkyu leaned back frowning

"If so, you're a northerner from now on" Junkyu said

"What?! How can you just–argh!
Junkyu immediately took out his sword and slew Mashiho's arm

"Don't speak when I don't tell you too, you're in no position for your opinion to be important" Junkyu said looking at Mashiho who groan while holding his bleeding arm

"You will be my queen and your opinion is not needed, do I make myself clear?" Junkyu asked, Mashiho did not reply

Junkyu got angry and pressed his thumb into the cut on Mashiho's arm

"Do.I.Make.My.Self.Clear?" Junkyu asked through his gritted teeth

"Y-Yes-argh" Mashiho groaned in pain, Junkyu removed his thumb from the cut and wiped his hand on Mashiho's cloth

"Good. I'll be back in the evening. I'll leave someone to watch you" Junkyu said and stood up

He was about to walk to the door but

"W-Wait, p-please inform the..the royal seamstress that I've been held, I came with her here" Mashiho said hissing as the cut kept stinging

Junkyu looked at him and walked out without replying him.

Mashiho tore out a part of his hanbok and tied around his cut

"What have my life turned into, I don't think I'll be here for days...It seems like I'll be for..years" Mashiho said to himself

The door slid open and a person walked in with his head held low

"Greetings your majesty" He said softly

"M-Majesty? Don't call me that! I'm..I'm not yet the..queen" Mashiho said in disbelief

"My apologies your majesty but it's a custom to call our queen that title" The person said still with his head low

"Mm Whatever, rise" Mashiho said and the person raised his head up

"You must be the person Prince Junkyu sent"

"Yes, your majesty" he said looking down

"Yah look at me when I speak to you" Mashiho said

"My apologies your majesty, I'm a lowly servant, I dare not look into the eyes of my queen" he said still looking down

Mashiho was already frustrated with the formality

"Then as your queen, I command you to look at me when I speak or else..." Mashiho threatened

The boy immediately knelt down with his head on the floor

"Your majesty! Forgive this servant for angering you! I don't deserve to live your majesty!" The boy shouted startling Mashiho

"S-Stand up, you don't have to do that" Mashiho said
and the boy stood up

"What's your name?" Mashiho asked

The boy hesitated before looking at Mashiho

"Asahi, your majesty" the boy softly spoke

"Alright Asahi, how old are you?"

"I'm 20, your majesty" Asahi said and Mashiho immediately smiled in happiness, he hurriedly walked to Asahi

"I'm 20 too, my name's Mashiho" Mashiho said happily

"Alright your Majesty" Asahi said

"Call me Mashiho"

"But your majes–

"Or I'll kill you" Mashiho threatened him

"Alright Mashiho" Asahi said uncomfortably. Mashiho smiled and sat back where he was

He patted beside him and Asahi slowly sat down

"I'll teach you some cool tricks, watch" Mashiho said and brought out his knife startling Asahi

Mashiho taught him how to throw knives and how to paralyse someone by stabbing them with a knife at a particular spot

Asahi was still uncomfortable with how informal he was forced to be, he's always been formal to the royals but now he's suddenly forced to be informal

"Next one, you're almost good at it" Mashiho complemented him and patted his back

Mashiho's stomach growled catching both their attention

"Ah the whole drama's made me to forget to eat" Mashiho said rubbing his belly

"I'll get you some food your majes- er Mashiho" Asahi said and slightly bowed before leaving the room, he got back with a tray in his hands

He placed the food in front of Mashiho and was about to step back but Mashiho threatened him to sit down and eat with him by showing him his knife

"Does anyone here know about my presence?" Mashiho asked and Asahi shook his head

"Only the prince and I know" Asahi said

"I heard kings usually have concubines, does the prince have a harem?" Mashiho asked

"No, he refuses to have a harem, he says it would distract him from his work as the king" Asahi said

"He's the next in line to the throne right? When's the coronation?" Mashiho asked

"Tomorrow" Asahi said and Mashiho spat out his water

"T-Tomorrow?"

"Yes, everyone's been getting ready, that's why the queen called for her seamstress today for her hanbok, oh and the prince plans on announcing you as the queen tomorrow" Asahi said and Mashiho immediately stood up

"What?!" Mashiho shouted

"Everything's happening so fast!" Mashiho shouted

"All will be well" Asahi said as he stood up and carried the tray of used plates

"I'll be back tomorrow morning, I and some maids will be here to prepare you for the announcement" Asahi bowed and left

Mashiho fell to the ground and looked at the ceiling

"What kind of punishment is this? What have I done to deserve all these badluck?" Mashiho asked frustrated

"Ah...I get it now...I'm a thief" Mashiho said and chuckled

He sat back up when he heard the door open

"Prince Junkyu" he mumbled
