When the army of Voreion returns from Ohkta, the people of Voreion cheer and throw white roses into the air in celebration of the victory.

"Long live Emperor Jeon! Long live Empress Jeon!" The people cheer and dance in the streets.

Children happily chase behind the horses and scurry between the legs of the many war horses. Jungkook and Taehyung smile as they watch the joy of their people.

"Your people love you." Taehyung smiles and reaches his hand out to his husband.

"Our people love us." Jungkook hums as he holds his dear husband's hand.

As they near the castle, a large group of children runs over to them with two crowns made of flowers. Jungkook and Taehyung stop both of their horses and smile down at the adorable children.

"For Your Majesties." The children shyly bow as they lift the two flower crowns to their Emperor and Empress.

"Did you make them?" Taehyung asks as he dismounts from Thana.

"We did." A girl answers and looks up at Taehyung.

"Thank you very much." Taehyung hums and bows his head to let the children place the flower crown on his head.

When Taehyung looks over at Jungkook, Jungkook feels his breath run away when he sees his mate's beautiful, ocean-blue eyes smiling at him. The emperor quickly dismounts from his horse and kneels next to his gorgeous mate and lets the children place the flower crown on his head.

The children sing and dance in excitement when they see the flower crowns that they made on the heads of their smiling Emperor and Empress.

"You look absolutely gorgeous," Jungkook whispers and presses a loving kiss on his husband's cheek.

"You look rather dashing yourself." Taehyung smiles as he enjoys his mate's soft kiss.

"Jin!" Namjoon shouts as he runs out to welcome his mate home.

"Moon!" Jin quickly dismounts from his war horse and runs over to his mate with open arms.

"I have missed you so much!" Namjoon cries out as he wraps his mate in his arms and hugs him close.

"I missed you too." Jin hums and buries his face in the crook of his mate's neck and breathes in the comforting scent he has been longing for.

A small hand touching him startles Namjoon. The large alpha smiles when he sees the pup that is safely strapped to his mate's back. "Is this Taemin?" He asks as he quickly pulls the pup from the sling on Jin's back.

"He is." Jin smiles as he watches his mate cradle the omega pup in his arms.

"He is absolutely beautiful." Namjoon lovingly whispers and kisses his pup's forehead.

"Alpha!" Jimin and Hoseok both shout and run over to Yoongi who is patiently waiting for them.

The moment that Jimin and Hoseok reach Yoongi, the large alpha wraps them both in his loving embrace. "I have missed both of you," Yoongi whispers as he holds his two loves in his arms.

"We missed you too." They both hum and relax in Yoongi's comforting embrace.

That night, the entire Empire of Voreion is filled with celebrations and festivities as the people welcome a new beginning to the young empire. As the people celebrate, Taehyung and Jungkook rest in their room together. Taehyung happily snuggles in his mate's embrace and breathes in his mate's comforting dark forest scent.

"How are you feeling?" Jungkook softly asks his mate as he slips his hands beneath his mate's shirt.

"I am feeling perfect." Taehyung hums and slips his shirt off.
