In the wake of that day, Taehyung took it upon himself to attend to his well-being, a responsibility Jungkook willingly shared. Although a sense of guilt lingered within Jungkook for the unconventional method employed, he acknowledged that it stemmed from her desire to aid her own spouse.
As the days unfolded, a palpable closeness enveloped Taehyung and Jungkook. Amidst the caring gestures, Jungkook sensed emotions blossoming within Taehyung. Perhaps, the intricate tapestry of love between them was weaving a story beyond the boundaries of one-sided affection.
The inquiry into Queen Jimin's poisoning persisted, shrouded in mystery. Although she had awoken from her coma, her presence remained undisclosed, known only to Commander Hoseok and King Taehyung.
In a benevolent gesture, King Taehyung, inclined to grant his second Queen a chance at love, opted to share a tranquil moment in the palace garden. Seated within the gazebo on plush carpets and surrounded by cushions, a small table adorned with snacks and tea awaited them. Meanwhile, an artist diligently captured their regal presence on canvas.
As Queen Jungkook rested her head on King Taehyung's shoulder, basking in his masculine scent, an exchange of tenderness unfolded. The King, in a moment of affection, bestowed a sweet peck upon her forehead. However, the delicate proximity was disrupted when an inadvertent mishap occurred, causing hot tea to spill on Queen Jungkook's hand.
Startled, both were drawn from their reverie. Jungkook attempted to cool her scalded hand, but King Taehyung intervened, personally tending to the burn. Maintaining their privacy, Lady Jane, the vigilant personal maid, swiftly approached with ointment.
In a display of duty, she offered, "Your Highness, let me take care of Her Majesty." The King, mindful of potential complications, nodded, ensuring the delicate balance of romance and well-being of the Queen.
Commander Hoseok entered King Taehyung's view, drawing a stern gaze from the monarch. "Have I not expressed my displeasure at being disturbed during moments of quality time with my wives?" The King's tone carried a regal authority.
The commander bowed respectfully. "My apologies, my King, but the matter is of utmost importance." Leaning in, he whispered confidentially into the King's ear, revealing the urgency.
A sigh escaped King Taehyung as he turned to his wife. "Sweetheart, an important matter requires my presence. If you don't mind, we'll have to postpone our time together." The joy on Queen Jungkook's face faded into a frown, though she nodded in understanding.
"I'll be in my chamber then. Don't forget to visit me," she said, leaving a tender peck on the King's cheeks before departing, leaving a bittersweet atmosphere lingering in the garden.
