A PENDANT That United The Souls

38. CANDLELIT

At this point, Y/N was feeling quite anxious. She was shying away from meeting Taehyung. However, upon stepping outside the mansion and being greeted by the sight of twinkling lights everywhere, she got a slight confidence boost. A path made of rose petals was laid out in front of her, and stepping on it, she couldn't help but feel a bit special.

She slipped off her shoes, her bare feet carrying her across the floral carpet. The sensation of cool, supple petals against her feet was soothing. Y/N stopped after a few steps, as an image sparked in her mind. It was a room with candles everywhere, a pathway of rose petals leading to a hot water bathtub. There were balloons, and Robin standing in front.

???:- Y/N? Y/N?

Robin called out, bringing her back to the past.

KTH:- Y/N, what's wrong?

Taehyung asked, concern drawing his brows together.

Y/N:- T- Taehyung,

Y/N whispered.

KTH:- Yes, are you alright?

Taehyung responded gently.

Y/N:- Yes. I'm okay,

Y/N reassured him.

KTH:- Y/N, you look incredibly stunning. I don't think I've ever seen anyone quite like you. Being around you makes me forget everything else. I'm lucky to have you,

Taehyung said, his eyes sparkling with sincerity. He then extended his hand for her to hold.

KTH:- Come.

As they walked together, Y/N could see a charming pavilion in the distance. Beneath it was a small table with two chairs, an idyllic candlelit dinner awaiting them by the seashore. Taehyung then pulled out a chair for her to sit.

KTH:- Please, have a seat,

Taehyung encouraged, a smile on his face.

Y/N:- Thank you, my dear.

Then they both began digging into their dinner.

Y/N:- This tastes absolutely divine!

KTH:- So glad you're enjoying it! What do you think of the setup, Y/N?

Y/N:- It's just as wonderful as I appreciate you, Tae! Flawless, truly.

Suddenly, Taehyung popped open a bottle of champagne and poured it into their glasses, placing the filled glasses smoothly onto the table. Taehyung rose from his seat, made his way towards Y/N, and knelt down on one knee. He pulled out a ring box from his pocket, revealing a sparkling ring to Y/N.

KTH:- Y/N, I'm deeply in love with you. Will you marry me? I promise to fulfill any wish you have. To protect you, I'd combat death and fight off any threat. I'm committed to your happiness till my last breath. What's your answer?

Y/N, surprised and elated, stood up. She hadn't expected Taehyung to pop the question tonight, and her happiness knew no bounds.

Y/N:- Yes! I love you too.

KTH:- R-really? Oh my God!

Y/N:- Please stand up.

With a broad smile on his face, Taehyung rose from his kneeling position and slipped the beautiful diamond ring onto Y/N's finger.

Underneath the twinkling stars, Taehyung tenderly took Y/N's hand, their fingers intertwining effortlessly as if they had always belonged together. With a warm smile, he guided her closer, their souls inching toward a shared beating rhythm. Elusive in those captivating eyes of his, she found refuge, a sanctuary where time seemed to cease.

As their bodies drew nearer, Taehyung's perfect lips delicately brushed against Y/N's tender ones, an electric spark igniting a torrent of emotions within her. A shiver of anticipation raced down her spine, swelling her heart with an indescribable thrill. With the utmost care, his arms enveloped her waist, pulling her closer against his frame, proclaiming his love with a fierce yet gentle passion.

Lost in embrace, their lips danced in sync, a symphony of desire unraveling in the space between them. With her arms draped over his broad shoulders, Y/N entwined her delicate fingers in Taehyung's silky hair, a tangible reminder of their union.

Time stood still as their lips meshed rhythmically, their breath whispered secrets of eternity.

Taehyung picked up champagne glasses, offering one to Y/N as he drew her close, toasting the class with a light clink of their glasses. After swiftly emptying his glass, he guided one of Y/N's hands to rest on his shoulder as they started moving rhythmically, their dancing illuminated by the soft tune playing in the backdrop, their gazes intertwined in an intimate bond.

Y/N:- Taehyung, you look nothing short of striking. I can't think of a soul more beautiful than yours in this entire world. How incredibly fortunate I feel to have you in my life. You've been the subject of my admiration even before I got to know you personally. From an idol in my eyes, to standing here with me - it all feels dreamlike. Taehyung, I see the love in your eyes as you look at me.

Following her words, Y/N leaned in to kiss Taehyung, who reciprocated warmly. As he slightly lifted her up to compensate for their height difference, he further bent down, scooping Y/N into his arms in a romantic bridal style. Y/N supported herself with one hand on his shoulder, the other affectionately touching his cheek. Maintaining their warm eye contact, Taehyung gently carried her to the bedroom.
