Jungkook's pov

I hear the door open behind me. I look back to see my mother enter in a beautiful lavender dress that makes her look like a queen. she walks to me and shakes her head disappointed. 

" you haven't done your makeup yet. your eyes are looking puffy. just wearing the suit is not enough. why don't you ever listen to me?" she says as she picks up a makeup brush and starts applying makeup on my face.

I sit quietly and let her do whatever she wants. today is my wedding day. yes, it is supposed to be the happiest day in my life and yet I am dreading it. my parents forcefully fixed my marriage with 'Kim Taehyung' for their business deals. he is known for being cold and ruthless. I am being transported from one hell to another. At least I'll get away from my parents. I just hope he is not abusive. 

I am wearing an expensive white suit with white trousers and a matching tie. the suit is studded with 7 real diamonds to make me look classy (apparently). A white rose is clipped to my chest pocket and I have been bathed in expensive perfume. my hair has been styled to make it look fluffy yet classy. 

my mother starts instructing me as she does my makeup, " You better follow what I am telling you. you are going to be Kim Taehyung's husband from now on. you will do as he says. he tells you to clean the house, you do it, he tells you to do anything, you do it. he tells you to cook, you do it. he wants to fuck you, you follow his wishes. Do you understand? your only job is to keep him happy. I don't want a frown on his face for a single day. this deal means a lot to our company. and start being responsible and don't expect too much from him. he is not going to give you princess treatment. now come on, he is waiting at the end of the aisle"

my mother got up and walked away in her high heels like the model she is. tears were threatening to fall out of my eyes but my family would kill me if I ruined the makeup. I look towards the ceiling and blink them away. just then, my sister enters the room. I sigh in relief seeing her. She walks up to me and sits on her knees before me, holding my hands.

" Are you okay, kookie? I know this marriage is forced and all and you hate our family at this moment. but remember that I am going to be always there for you. forget our parents who don't care about anything other than their company. I'm there for you. call me whenever you can. if your husband mistreats you, just give me a call. I'll help you run away. and try to be happy. there is a chance that your husband will be a nice guy and will make you happier than in this hell hole we are living in. he won't abuse you, hopefully. try giving him a chance, okay?"

I wipe my tears and nod at her while taking her in a tight hug. this was my sister Aera. She is the only person in my family who loves and who cares about me. She has always supported me in everything. when I wanted to become a writer instead of inheriting my parent's company, she was the only one who supported me. She came with me to every book signing and always supported all my decisions.

as I and Aera are having our moment, the father comes in and looks at me with a frown. he then scolds me and Aera for crying right now. he says that the makeup would get ruined and I would look ugly in front of the groom. Aera quietly nods and walks out of the room with her head low. he makes me get up and go outside with him. 

I am standing at the start of the aisle, holding my father's hand. all eyes are on me. I nervously look forward to seeing the great 'Kim Taehyung' standing at the end of the aisle looking at me. he is dressed in a black suit and a white shirt underneath. his hair are slicked back. he looking at me with a very sharp gaze that could make me melt. 

I take a deep breath and walk down the aisle with my father while trying to smile. at the end of the aisle, my father gives my hand to Taehyung and I stand in front of him. he looks into my eyes and the corners of his lips turn upwards. I look at his best man. a beautiful guy with silver hair and sharp amazing features. my maid of honour is Aera since I don't have many friends. the priest starts reading the scriptures. then it is time for vows.

Taehyung speaks, " I Kim Taehyung solemnly swear to take you Jeon Jungkook to be my husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until parted by death."

I take a deep breath and repeat the vows in a shaky voice. the priest  then says, " you may kiss the groom"

fuck... I didn't think about this. but if he is going to potentially take my virginity forcefully tonight, I might as well kiss him just for the rituals even if I don't want to. he leans forward. I am so nervous. I let out a shaky breath trying to calm myself and brace myself for the kiss. I close my eyes since I can't watch it without breaking down.
