⚜️3:Beautiful Responsibility ⚜️

Silence! The king's chamber was in a deep silence not even the noises of crickets were audible.

After knowing the revelation about Jungkook being a special male, Taehyung was in shock.

When he got the marriage proposal from Alvania he thought it was a coverup as the commoner disappeared or may be eloped.

But now knowing that Jungkook is a special male and he needs an heir, he is completely aware of the intentions of the king.

Just like everyone in the world he also thought special males were weak and defective. Don't get him wrong he was brought up in those environments and fed all the lies about special males.

However now knowing that Jungkook, the most powerful king is a special male then how can they be weak. And how can he call his husband defective, his heart won't allow it.

" Taehyung" Jungkook called.
"Yes " Taehyung answers.

" Do you not want to perform the wedding night ceremony?" The king questioned

" ummmm- - it's not like that I was just taken aback a little bit , I am sorry"

"Oh, I am afraid that even if you deny, i have no other option, I hope you understand what I am trying to say"

"Yes, i understand"

Taehyung replies and the room again falls into an awkward silence.
Jungkook looks at Taehyung standing in the same position fiddling with his bracelet.

He sighs and stands up from the bed he was previously sitting on.
He takes the rose filled sheet off from the bed and keeps it aside.
Then starts walking around the chamber and blows every candle one by one, then he starts taking out the lanterns one by one with the help of a stick.

" What are you doing?" He asks, conflicted about his husband's sudden demeanour.

"I don't like roses and these candles are giving a strong stench of them, and besides I would much rather prefer darkness"the king replies curtly.

The room is now enveloped in darkness.
Taehyung feels uncomfortable, he has never been in such stark darkness, and the whirling of harsh cold winds is doing nothing good in calming him down.
It takes him a minute or two to adjust to his dark surroundings, he deciphers that Jungkook is standing in front of him as his built, visible silhouette provides Taehyung with a little bit of warmth due to how close Jungkook is standing.

"Can you, -- can we now start I am tired and just want to sleep." Jungkook's cracked voice pains Taehyung's heart like no other, he has never in his entire life heard Jungkook sounding this low, and even though he can't see Jungkook properly he is sure that the king has tears in his eyes.

"Y-yeah" Taehyung replies, half heartily, he doesn't want to do this, but what other option does he have, what other option does Jungkook have. They both are puppets in the hands of destiny.

The rustling of bed sheets indicates that Jungkook is settling himself on the bed.

"Hyung...i can't see anything" Tae voices out and Jungkook beats himself for ignoring this aspect, he is familiar to the chamber's surrounding but Taehyung is not.

"Wait a minute..." Jungkook walks up to a lantern, placed on the table  and ignites it, filling the chamber with a soft dim golden hue.

Now that he once again can see Jungkook in the chamber sliding the canopy to enclose the bed completely from the sight of anyone, Taehyung's heart beat starts accelerating as he weighs down the gravity of their situation.
"Hyung....can we not find any other way...?"  Hope filled eyes of Taehyung meet with despaired ones of Jungkook and unconsciously Taehyung eyes also fills with similar despair.
