Two Kingdoms | Park Sunghoon

CASTLE OF SILLA.

Aeri sat on her throne, bored out of her mind. It was the rare moments she felt active however whenever she magically feels like doing something, there's nothing to do. It was this feeling and situation that drove her most mad.

Just then, the door flung open, revealing a tall male, dressed in a black velvet jacket and black trousers, touched with accents of gold. His hair was jet black and silky smooth, parted in the middle. It was him. Park Sunghoon.

"Missed me love?" His innocent smile formed on his lips. Bowing down before her, he must keep his honour of course.

"Of course, my heart aches deeply without you." Aeri shot back sarcastically. She really didn't want to deal with him, however at least she was having a proper conversation; she doesn't get that privilege often.

"That's wonderful. I was getting bored and decided to visit the Queen of my new army." A smirk creeped on his face, "You really need to get me a throne, I'm tired of standing. It's not giving a very good impression of you, seeing as I'm your guest. I should be entertained."

Aeri felt like giving him a beating for that. As much as she secretly loved him, his egotistical attitude triggered her annoyance deeply.

"So you think you're that important? I'm afraid I have to be the one to tell you: you're not worth anything. Plus, I'm the Queen here, not a lousy prince who relies on his father to make decisions for him. Sad." Aeri grimaced at him, watching his smile drop at the last sentence.

"I'll have you know now; one more word about my father, and consider this alliance an enmity. Now, where were we?" Sunghoon spoke sternly with his gaze sharp and piercing through Aeri's eyes.

"I see how it is." Aeri whispered to herself whilst caressing the sheath of her sword, which was leaned against her throne.
