Queen (JK X Reader)

Coronation

It was my coronation day of becoming the official Queen of Angelhale. I was very nervous because I thought I would trip and fall on my very long and heavy dress that was absolutely not necessary. My mother was very harsh on me, saying that this is my dream. It really wasn't. I just wanted to be a traveler and meet new people. Not a stuck up prince that wave money around like they are gonna buy me. Hell no. I didn't want that.

I put on my necklace that my dad gave me for Christmas before he died. It was always hard on us when he died. We lost a lot of our income. And he was with me when it came to duty. I always remember me asking him when I was little if I could go on a hiking trip with him, and we would wait for always Mom to leave so we could. I was around seven or eight at the time and I loved hanging out with my dad. But since he died, nothing has been the same.

I walked out, making sure my shoulders were set back and trying to make myself look regal. If my mom walked out of her room and saw me not standing or sitting up straight, she would immediately walk over to me and force me to sit up. It actually used to hurt, but now it's just second nature. I mean, isn't that what being a princess was all about? Looking pretty next to a pretty boy who would do nothing good for a country?

I can't stand the way the system is set up. There were castes based on how much income you got when you first started working. And if you were born into a poor family? Low income, low caste.

I was lucky. I was born in the higher up castes, actually part of the royal family. My aunt was the queen, but she and her husband (the king) and her children were poisoned by one of the maids. She was executed.

I don't blame the people who are in the lower castes. They have next to nothing and the upperclassmen just treat them like dirt. It's so sad. I hate watching it on the news on our large screen TVs. Houses being burned down from both sides of the caste, and it's like the lowerclassmen are all the ones to blame. When I become queen, I'm going to do something about it. I wonder how Mom feels about it though, because she is very reserved and cares only about the things that she wants and needs, and nobody else (well, except for maybe me. But what's in it for her? Riches. So yeah. She really is thinking about just herself.)

I really wanted to show people that I am something else. I want to help the people on the streets and come up with charities to feed the hungry, especially the children. They are the ones that are going to shape our future after all. Why not help them?

I walked out of my room with my big dress ((picture above)) and shoes and watched all the maids bowing down to me. I smiled at them and said good morning. They really liked me, because they thought that I could help them with the caste disputes and all that. And I knew I couldn't let them down.

I walked into the room where I would put on my finishing touches on my hair and makeup.

I just stood there, looking at myself in the mirror with a blank expression. It was hard seeing myself as queen. I can't do this. But I had to to make my mom happy. Maybe, she would start to love me more than her money. Pfft. Who am I kidding? That will never happen.

I could hear everyone in the Great Room talking and having a great time. That's where the coronation is happening. Then I heard the announcement.

"Welcome, everyone! Today is a very special day, as we all know because our princes is now going to be crowned queen. Please stay quiet as she walks out as beautiful as she is. I present to you, Y/n L/n, your soon-to-be queen." Then the the violins started playing. I walked out with a smile and walked slowly and saw everyone looking at me. I was used to that, and I kept a smile in front of my angered personality. There were only rich people. I wanted to see people who were poor, but I guess the guards wouldn't let them in. Ugh. My mom's doing.

I came up to the altar and stepped up on the steps and bowed down before the former queen, my mom.

She started to speak.

"Y/n L/n is going to be your new queen. She is a beautiful girl that has been through a lot and has a very high intellect. She's kind and loving and will do everything in her power to do the right thing and enforce the laws to keep the people safe. I now present to you, Queen Y/n L/n of Angelhale." She put the delicate crown on my head and gave me a tight smile. I stood and turned around. Everyone stood up and started to applaud. I smiled.

Soon, the celebrations started. I stood in the ballroom looking over all the people. There were some people that didn't have as nice clothes as the others, so I guess some of the lowerclassmen did get in. I smiled, thinking Yes, this is good.

Lots of people came up and congratulated me about my rein and many thank you's and your welcome's.

A young man of around 23 came up to me and greeted himself as Prince Jungkook of Aline. Ugh. He just wants to be king of more and more kingdoms. No. Not happening.

"Would you like to walk with me in the gardens?" he asked me.

I smiled and said yes. I took his arm and we walked to the gardens. It was honestly the most beautiful place I liked to go to when I needed to just blow off some steam. We walked through and sat on a bench. I put a strand of hair behind my ear and looked at him. "So, you need to talk to me?"

He looked a little embarrassed. "Yes, and this was not my decision, but my parents were hoping we could get married to strengthen our countries' relationship. They have been quite tight and tense so..." I blushed a fierce red and he scratched his neck. "Just letting you know, because I didn't want to do in public and have people listening."

I simply nodded. I looked up at him and smiled. "No worries. Actually, thank you for going into a private setting." Then I had an idea. "Instead of marrying, why don't we make a peace agreement? Of course, when you become King---"

"My parents won't let me become King until I specifically marry you. Oh, and sorry I interrupted you, your Majesty." He blushed a tomato red.

I nodded again. "Okay...We can figure something out then."

So we just sat there in awkward silence. "How about you and your family stay for a week and we can work something out, ok?" I say.

He smiles and says, "Thank you. So kind of you." Then he stands up and holds out his arm. I smile to him and we walk back to the celebration. Everyone rejoices when I come back and come over to me and starts telling me how beautiful I am and whatnot. I say thank you and Jungkook let's go and bows. I curtsy. Then we walk away from each other.

Finally, the celebration has stopped and I was just ready to go to bed. Tomorrow will be my first day of reign and I wanted to have a lot sleep before making decisions.

Especially that one decision where Prince Jungkook basically asked for my hand in marriage. I don't know if he was lying to me, but I will find out if his parents actually asked him to. I'll think about tomorrow after I finish my protocols. Then I will talk to him over lunch with my mother. I'm just nervous about how it's gonna go...
