The King's Obsession

12.

A strong force made you kneel on the expensive floor, the Queen sauntered towards her throne and took a seat with a wide smirk.

Soon young: Queen, I request you to let her go-

Rebbeca: That's why you couldn't become the king, Soon.

Soon young clenched his fists tightly while his smoldering eyes pierced through her soul.

Rebbeca: *smirks* You should learn to control your emotions.

Soonyoung: No wonder the villagers like my mom, Queen Yuna more.

-Rebbeca got up, her sharp eyes staring against his gaze.

Rebbeca: I'll deal with you another time, Soon.

She turned around towards you.

The ministers, servants, other princes, and princesses stared at you already knowing the scenario as the news of a Queen's stolen necklace was all over the palace.

Rebbeca: Princess Y/n, why did you steal my necklace?

Y/n: You already know the answer, Queen. Stop with your nasty drama.

Rebbeca: That necklace which was a gift from my husband is more worthy than your little kingdom, Y/n. And you think I am being dramatic?

Rebbeca: If you surrender yourself, and accept the truth, then I might show mercy on you.

Y/n: Why I should beg for mercy for such a fictitious blame?

The Queen raised her eyebrow and looked at one of the guards. The guard nodded his head and came near you.

You let out a loud gasp when you felt a strong stinging pain across your back when the guard whipped you.

Rebbeca: Think princess, I might have mercy on you.

Everyone looked at you with an unsure gaze. It felt wrong. And this wasn't the first time. Queen grabbed Soonyoung's hand as he was about to walk near you. Her anger boiled up when she felt your sharp stares at her.

You slowly stood up, your back was still stinging.

Rebbeca: You think I don't know about you and Prince Soon Young hiding in the dark tunnel that night? Huh?

Rebbeca: Being the royal servant, you made a great mistake having a friendly relationship with Prince soon-young, disrespecting Prince Wonwoo. You don't know what sins we made in this hall while punishing the fools like you.

The guard again punched you making you fall to the ground, you let out a cry when he punched in your abdomen. You could've fought back to them but something was stopping you.

You have to bear the pain if you want to find him. You were this close and now you are not losing this opportunity by getting kicked out of this palace.

You again slowly tried to stand up.

Rebbeca: Daegu is ruled by ruthless authorities where execution is the only penalty for those who disrespect us.

A strong force on your leg made you fall which made you wail.

Soonyoung: Stop this, Queen Rebbeca! This is unnecessary.

Rebbeca: Strip her off.

-A loud gasps and whispers filled in the courtroom.

Rebbeca: Y/n, you still have time to beg for mercy. Surrender yourself and beg for it!

Y/n: No!

Suddenly a guard came towards you and tore your dress apart.

Rebbeca: Beg for it-

???: What's going on here?

Everybody stood up from their seat with fear on their face when they saw their almighty King entering the courtroom.

The guard who was beating you froze for a moment and started to shake violently when the King's icy stares fell on helpless you on the floor.

Seungcheol: HOW DARE YOU TO TOUCH HER?!

-The king roared in complete anger making everyone in the room scared of his aura.

Suengcheol: Seize that bastard!

-The guards seized the poor man and dragged him to the corner.

White knuckles from clenching his fists, his furious eyes stared at his mother, jaws clenching to remain quiet as he spit out some disrespectful words, his hunch form exuded an animosity that was like acid burning in his heart.

Rebbeca: Seungcheol, she is culprit-

Seungcheol: It's Majesty, Queen Rebbeca.

He glared at her

Seungcheol: Who gave you the authority to punish someone...someone that I own?

Seungcheol: Nobody should dare to touch WHAT'S MINE!

-The King warned everyone.

The King walked near shivering you. He removed his cape and covered you. Your eyes were half closed, feeling woozy and weak.

You felt your body being lifted. He picked you up like a bridal way and started to make his steps towards his chamber.

***

He laid down your weak body on the bed.

Seungcheol: Yeah! Wake up.

-He said with his raspy tone.

You slightly opened your eyes and saw Seungcheol in front of you. You tried to get up but in contrast, he hovered above you making you let out a soft gasp.

Seungcheol: You know why I saved you?

-You slowly shook your head.

Seungcheol: Because I don't like someone torturing what's mine.

-He pinned your hands beside your head as you struggled under him.

Seungcheol: It's my job to do that.

Y/n: Let me-Ah~

-His lips slowly sucked on your bruised skin making you whimper.

Seungcheol: I HATE you so much.

Seungcheol: But still nobody can hurt you, dove.

Seungcheol: How much you try to control yourself, you'll end up being mine.

-He spoke against your neck.

Seungcheol: He took something special from me.

Seungcheol: And I'll take something special from him.
