"I hate this" she whispers,
"I hate this feeling" she whispers again,
"I hate how he makes me feel," she says,

What could happen if the prince met a beautiful and poor young woman? Would their meeting be a...
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Jeon quickly looks around and follows everyone's gaze to see her son smiling and walking down the stairs with San behind him who was also smiling wide. Jungkook looked around the crowd and bowed, smiling along with San.
"Thank you all for accepting our invitation!" Jungkook says as everyone claps their hands while Jungkook chuckles and nods "Please, enjoy the ball. This palace is yours for the night!" Everyone cheered and got back to their business as Jungkook exhaled heavily and turned towards San who wasn't even looking at him "San" Jungkook called out but no reply was heard. Jungkook followed his gaze as his eyes stopped on Wooyoung making him chuckle
"She looks pretty." Jungkook compliments as San nods "I know," Jungkook smiles and hits him on the arm making San hiss in pain "What was that for!?" "For not listening to me." San hissed and glared at him "As if you would if Jimin nuna would be here." Jungkook smiled before he could even stop it as San noticed and shook his head "That's not true" "Hell, as if I will believe you." Jungkook laughs and wraps an arm around his neck as they walk around
"Where is she, tho?" Jungkook shrugged "Probably getting ready." "For that long that even Wooyoung is not with her?" Jungkook nodded "Jin hyung is there so.." San looked at Jungkook confused "She let Jin hyung inside and not you?" Jungkook frowned "Why would she even let me in?" San dramatically gasps and pushes Jungkook away "My brother, those are signs of love." Jungkook rolled his eyes, resisting the urge to brush his fingers through his hair
"I am not desperate for any." San exhaled heavily "And here I am, dying to get married with Wooyoung." Jungkook shook his head, smiling "Well, that is just... you." Jungkook says as San is about to defend himself when someone comes and hugs Jungkook so suddenly that he backs away from San. Jungkook looks down to see Lia resting her head on his chest, squealing like a mouse "I missed you, oppa! You look so handsome!" Jungkook moved his face to the side
"Oppa, how do you always manage to look this good? And I love the smell of your perfume!" Jungkook exhaled and removed her arms wrapped around his neck as he backed away "Lia, you should be calling me Prince not 'oppa'. And touches like this aren't appropriate." She exhaled and stepped closer to him as she ran her fingers down his chest and she bit her lip "You don't have to be shy, prince" She said in a seductive tone.
"Okay, enough," San says and moves her away, pulling Jungkook towards him "You are disobeying the demands of the forthcoming monarch, Lia." Lia rolled her eyes and looked at Jungkook "Do you mind me touching you, prince?" Jungkook quickly nodded his head "Of course, yes." Lia was about to speak when Mrs. Jeon approached them with a wide smile "My son!" She hugged Jungkook who smiled and hugged her back. Mrs. Jeon broke the hug and scanned his outfit

"He looks damn good, right Aunty?" Mrs. Jeon nods as Lia rolls her eyes and walks away. Mrs. Jeon playfully hit Jungkook on his arm and glared at him making Jungkook look at her confused "Why do you look so good?" She complains making Jungkook frown eyebrows as San chuckles which gets Mrs. Jeon's attention to San as she does the same to San "Seriously, you two will literally get all the women here, how am I supposed to choose which one's perfect!?"
"Well..." San stood beside her and looked at her teasingly "You already know whom to choose." He whispers, loud enough for both Jungkook and Mrs. Jeon to hear. Jungkook looked at him confused as Mrs. Jeon let out a giggle and gave a peck on his cheek "This is why I like you more than Jungkook." Jungkook's eyes slightly widen as he lets out a dramatic gasp "Excuse me, mother?" His mother shrugged her shoulders "I wasn't lying" Jungkook rolled his eyes
"Thank you so much for your fake love, Mother" She hissed and hit him on the chest "So dramatic" Jungkook and San chuckled as Jungkook bit his lower lip and took a pause before asking "Umm mother.. Where is Jimin?" San and Mrs. Jeon glanced at each other, smiling secretly as Mrs. Jeon looked back at him "Probably getting ready." Jungkook nodded slowly as San laughed "He's missing her already" Jungkook glared at him "Shut up"
"Enough, enough." Mrs. Jeon waves a hand between both of them, smiling wide. "I will take Wooyoung and go upstairs to her room to check." Jungkook and San nodded as Mrs. Jeon smiled and walked away, towards Wooyoung. San wiggled his eyebrows at Jungkook "So, how's it going between you two?" Jungkook shrugged "Friendship?" San hissed as he gave Jungkook a look of frustration "What the hell, man? It should be more than that-" "It will never be more than that, San." Jungkook says dryly
"Why? Because of Is-" "Shut up, San." Jungkook glared at him as San looked at him and put his hands up in the air in a way 'You will never change' "You need to get over it. You are a man, Jeon." Jungkook's breathing gets heavier as he shakes his head "I don't want to talk about this. I am here, today because my father wants to choose a partner for me-" "What?" Jungkook nodded "Fucking hell, does he have no tolerance?" San says and exhales in frustration
"Of course, he doesn't" "So you will have to select a woman here, today... In front of Jimin?" Jungkook looked down and fixed his tie "Jimin agrees with them" San's jaw dropped as Jungkook covered his mouth with his hand "Don't get too comfortable, San." San closed his mouth and shook his head "You are fucking with my head right now, kook" "Go question her yourself then" San groaned "This is aggravating" "Nothing I can do"
"Well, shit-" San was cut off by the sudden silence of everyone. Jungkook and San frowned their eyebrows and looked around as the light turned off and the light hit the staircase where no one was standing. Jungkook looked around and saw his father who was also confused, "What happened..?" Jungkook whispers to San who shrugs his shoulders "How am I supposed to know?" Jungkook exhaled and looked around the crowd to spot the maidens but none were there
"Fuck" San curses, catching Jungkook's attention "Jungkook look" Jungkook quickly looks at the staircase as his eyes widen and he stumbles but San held his shoulder. Jungkook's eyes trace where she's coming down.. Jimin.. "Perfection..." He whispers. Jungkook felt his breath hitch as he scanned her from head to toe

"Fuck, she looks gorgeous," Jungkook murmured as San looked at Jungkook amazed but San kept looking at Wooyoung who was coming along with Jimin and Jungkook's mother. Jungkook saw his mother stop them as they nodded and Mrs. Jeon turned to face the crowd "Our new guests!" She shouts as everyone claps and shouts "They look like goddesses!" "Who are they!?" Jungkook gulped as he licked his lips, not taking his eyes off her
"They work for us but I just love them so much as my own family." They clapped again as Jimin looked around nervously but her eyes stopped on someone making her smile a bit. Jungkook. Jungkook's breath hitched before he let out a shaky breath before smiling and looking away. He looks down and closes his eyes, biting his lower lip as he curses under his breath. He looks down at his outfit and then at Jimin's gown as he realized his mother got them matching colors "Oh fuck this" Jungkook curses and chuckles to himself.
