A/n: I will mention that I'm making this out to be almost fantasy, it's set in a modern period so they would have suits and phones but I'm making out that they are in a different world completely. So some things will be unique and different. So just don't question anything, it is all correct within this alternate world.

Yes, Your Majesty

My eyes stayed closed as I awoke and my body turned as my hands felt something warm and soft which felt nice to the touch. When I stroked it once more, in my horror it moved and I realised where I was and who I had just rubbed and stroked.

"Hyunjin, I'm so sorry, I was half asleep."

"Maybe you're right, a kingsize bed isn't big enough." He mumbled angrily in his sleepy voice and he pushed my body back to my side and lay on his back as I did the same.

"Make sure you collect your things, our journey to the castle starts today."

I got out of bed clutching to my nightdress and I went into the bathroom to change into some travelling clothes. Carefully, I brought my wedding dress out of the bathroom and went outside to put it into the carriage.

—————————

When I returned inside, Hyunjin grabbed some clothes, then he entered the bathroom as I sighed. Life was going to be an interesting thing from now on. Just then I remembered the letter that Minho had wrote for me and I quickly fumbled for my bag, I would read it on our journey to the castle.

"You ready to go?"
I nodded and he lead the way back to the carriage, after we had put all our luggage safely in the back. We asked if the driver had ate and he told us that he had ate plenty.

Hyunjin stared out of the faded window while I unfolded the beautiful letter Minho had carefully made for me. The contents brought a tear to my eye.

Arim,
this I guess is what a goodbye letter is, I'll miss you, your laugh, your kindness, your beauty and everything special we ever made of this world. If these kingdoms weren't so strict we could have lived a different life together. But now you're to be married, it's time we said our final goodbyes. You won't visit this kingdom anymore and you'll be gone like leaves in the wind. But I'll always keep a place for you in my heart and I hope I made your last days here memorable.
Goodbye Arim, I had always loved you.

I closed the letter quickly wiping the tears that were now pouring with my sleeve. Hyunjin was never going to be a husband to me, only by legal name. I knew this and it pained me. To think I'd never be happy or never have a touch of another man ever again. He'd obviously have mistresses that he would have relations with.

I closed my eyes for the rest of the journey and let the dreams take me to a place far more beautiful to me.

"Wake up, we're here." Hyunjin's distant voice called out awaking me from sleep.
