Alpha King's Mate

11.

Jungkook: WHAT?? Don't think so low about me.!!! Yes, I am the king. And yes, I can have any girl I want. But I am not like that. My heart, body, and soul belong to... only one girl.

You: I am so sorry king-

Jungkook: Jungkook.

You: I am so sorry, Jungkook. I didn't think of it like that.

You in your mind: Can he hear me speak in mind or what?

Jungkook: I know exactly what you thought of. Your facial expressions said it all.

You: I am really sorry, Jungkook.

You in your mind: Oh, so it was just a guess looking at my stupid face. I could have dodged it easily. But I need him to forgive me for now. King or not, I swear he gets on my nerves at times.

Jungkook's face hardened at your thoughts again. Looking at his changed facial expressions, you spoke.

You: I am sorry. Really... it was just a random thought. It won't happen again.

You in your mind: Why is he so intimidating? Why do I feel that he hates me? Is he doing this to get back at me for being the only one who got hurt under his rule or something? Did I actually blot his name as a king? Asking for forgiveness also seems difficult... I just hope he lets this pass.

You bowed your head down and your eyes were filled with tears. You were on the verge of having a breakdown because of the outburst you faced from Jungkook.

You in your mind: How can you think so stupidly y/n? The king cares for all his people equally. He is showing extra care for you since you were attacked more than once. All he wants is your safety and you thought cr*p like this. Shame on you. I just hope he doesn't sentence me to death or punish me with endless work with no food or water.

Jungkook felt guilty at screaming at you when he saw your tears. King also scolded him.

King: Imagine you are a beautiful girl and a powerful person or rather, a king is asking you to sleep in his room in pretext of protecting you, how would you feel? Her thoughts were natural and simple. She is a female. She has to be guarded and foresee the most obvious things. Plus, they were just her thoughts. You didn't even let her finish thinking. You and your short temper will leave me mate-less here.

Jungkook quickly gave you a reassuring hug which took you by surprise, but you didn't stop him. You were relieved that the king wasn't angry on you any longer and you also didn't feel any kind of perverted motives in his action. You felt his concern in the hug. You smiled and spoke softly.

Jungkook: Don't cry.

You: Thank you, Jungkook. I'm sorry that I had for just a fraction of a second mistook your-

Jungkook: I didn't mean to yell at you, young miss. I am concerned about your safety, since you are in my castle under my rule and I prioritize my people to be safe and happy at all times. I feel bad.

King: Yeah...i feel bad... like saying 'SORRY' is an impossible word for your egoistic a**.

You: No, no. Don't feel bad about it. I thought wrongly about you. I'm sorry. 

Jungkook: And you were not wrong either, because you are a very pretty girl.

You blushed and then it hit you that you were still in his hold. He sensed you feeling uneasy and released you quick, yet gently.

King: Why aren't there sparks like last time?

Jungkook: May be because I didn't directly touch her skin. I had my arms over her clothes. So, no direct skin contact means no sparks, I guess.
