✔The First Female [Taennie Adaption]

13

I whirled around to face the king, startled and
horrified. This is not how I wanted my first
introduction with the royal family to go and I doubted he would help me after he just heard me screeching like a mad woman at his very own guards. But when my eyes settled on him I felt an amazing sense of relaxation waft over me, it wasn't because he had gentle features and he looked genuinely concerned- because he looked beyond furious- it was because he made Hobi's crazy theory correct.

He looked just like Taehyung.

"Oh my god." I breathed, placing a hand over my
pounding heart.

"What have you done to my guards?!" he demanded,

"Who are you?!"

"We need your help, please!“ Hobi yelled, sounding
just as desperate as I felt.

"Guards!" The king yelled, his vibrant green eyes
flashing around in hopes of back up. He visibly relaxed when a dozen more men came trampling out of the castle, armed with weapons, but someone else joined in the march as well.

"Jimin." A woman called.

The queen raced down a set of stone stairs, bundled
up tightly in a robe with her hair a mess. She might've just woke up but she looked far more regal than I could ever hope to, even when she was stricken with panic. Within a matter of seconds she was beside her husband and guards were surrounding both of them."We aren't here to hurt anyone." I said, raising my hands in surrender. Part of me knew I couldn't win.
even if I was somehow able to defeat these guard I
was certain that the king would yell again and more
would come rushing to his aid, "We need help and we
didn't have time to waste, please, listen."

"That's enough out of you!" The king shouted. He
wrapped a protective arm around his queen and
narrowed his eyes, "Guards, take them to the
dungeons."

The guards all loomed towards Hobi and I at once,
moving with a slow, steady grace that terrified me. I
was weak and exhausted, I wasn't ready for more
fighting or even more arguing, but I wasn't about to be thrown in the dungeons willingly either. I didn't come all this way to give up because my eyes drooped. So I sucked in one more breath, raised my hands and shouted, "I command you to stand down immediately!"

The guards fought their bodies like hell. They tried to pursue Hobi and I. they tried to stand on their own two feet. They tried to keep eye contact. They simply couldn't do it. They dropped down onto one knee, bowed their heads and remained silent as well as immobile.

"What are you doing?!" the king yelled, distress clear in his voice."She's too strong." One of the guards wheezed, still
trying to get to his feet.

"My God, she must have royal blood in her." The
queen whispered.

I opened my mouth to ask her what she meant but
my body couldn't handle the strain anymore. The
exhaustion had finally defeated me and mu eues drooped closed as my body collapsed to the ground.

I woke up slowly, my body fighting me. I needed
more sleep, every muscle in my body ached and I
could hardly keep my eyes open. But my mind was
racing madly, moving too quickly to keep me asleep
and I knew that my mind would always be far
stronger than my body.

"She's waking up." A man whispered. It took me a
moment to place the voice to the king, but when I did
all of the memories came flooding back and I sat up
instantly.

I gave out a moan as the dizziness hit me and I
swayed a little, but remained upright regardless.
My eyes darted around the room, trying to identify
where I was. The first thing I noticed was that
guards were everywhere and my beloved beta was
nowhere to be found which made my chest tighten
slightly. Then I realized I was in a very grand room,
one much larger than my own back home with
extravagant details and structure.
"Where am I?" I whispered, placing my cool hand on
my forehead to ease the vertigo.
