"She's not yours to have." Taehyung sneers at him.
"Yours. Mine. Ours." Jungkook shrugs as he fixes her hair tie on his wrist.
Taehyung's eyes stare at the tie in his possession before glaring at him.
"Either way, we both know I'm not going anywh...

"If it's a boy, what should we name him?"
"Leo." Genesis suggests. "I quite like that name."
"Leo?" Taehyung questions. "What about Emilio? I like that name."
"Oh, I like that one, too." She smiles up at him. "I also really like Giovanni. Gio, for short."
"Giovanni Emilio, Emilio Giovanni." Taehyung tries them out. "I think the first one works best."
"Me too." Genesis grins.
"What about for girl names? What do you like?" He rubs his hand over the round of her stomach.
"Mmmm." Dramatically, Genesis puts a finger to her chin. "I dunno. Let me think on it a little more."
Taehyung chuckles deeply before kissing her head. "Okay, my love."
Genesis goes silent as she thinks of what life will be like for them. It saddens her deeply that she'll never have the support from her side of the family for being with Taehyung.
She hopes that there will be a change of heart. She hopes that her father will understand their love and let them be together.
Genesis hopes their baby will bring out a better side of her father.

"Her father never liked you much either, huh?" Jungkook asks as he, Jimin and Taehyung watch Genesis on the large field.
Deciding that staying in the hotel would cause too much unnecessary attention, Seokjin had everyone moved into a private resort home with a large backyard.
It's perfect for training and away from prying eyes of the locals and other covens.
Genesis and Seokjin are standing in the middle of the field as he talks to her. He heard word of her bringing the garden of dead flowers to life with her presence and grew curious.
He found it interesting that that very same garden didn't die again after she wiped out that coven.
But then again, nature always has to find a balance somewhere.
"Not particularly, no. He hated me, in fact. Threatened me more times than I can count on both hands." Taehyung replies to Jungkook as they sit at the table for lunch.
They're joined by the rest of their coven for infused grilled chicken tacos and margaritas.
"All because you weren't rich, huh?"
"Genesis and her family were of royal blood. It was customary, mandatory for royals to marry and have heirs with other royals. It was completely unheard of in our village to do otherwise. Other villages had 'options if the royal blood wanted to marry down'. They'd have to give up their royal status and cut ties with their entire family. They'd be choosing to be exiled from the royal family."
