✔The First Female [Taennie Adaption]

16

Taehyung took a few more weeks to recover before he was able to do the majority of things he used to. I wanted him to be gentle with his body, worrying that he would end up hurting himself, but he ignored all of my complaints and warnings. He would grab my hands and drag me outside for runs around the packlands. He would stay up late and watch movies with me until midnight. Even though I worried about his health frequently I couldn't help but be thrilled with the change in him. It was like his fear of losing me had flipped a switch in his mind and he suddenly became the mate I had always wished for.

"What are you thinking about?" Taehyung asked, tracing a finger along my jawline, his head resting on my lap.

"How lucky I am." I murmured back with a tiny smile. I hated to admit it, but with Taehyung being so kind and gentle towards me I had become soft myself.

Taehyung gave out a small sigh, closed his eyes and
grabbed my hand, giving it a strong squeeze.

"So, are you prepared for the trials tomorrow?" Taehyung asked.

Itensed. I had been trying to avoid these thoughts
all night. I didn't want to think about the fact that
tomorrow I would be deciding the fate of several
men who had harmed my mate. Some people didn't
give me anxiety, like Jaden. I knew that he should be
locked up for life, no questions asked, but then men
like Suga made me hesitate. I wanted to do what
was fair and reasonable, but I worried that fair and
reasonable would not be easy to achieve."No, I'm not ready, but I think your parents are." I
said.

"We get the results of my DNA test tomorrow too, are you ready to find out if you're a princess?"

"No." I scoffed, scrunching up my nose.

"Oh? Why not? Doesn't every girl want to be a
princess?" Taehyung asked, his voice teasing.

I rolled my eyes, "I was never raised in that
mentality. I was always raised with the idea that I was to be a ruler, and not the kind that wore massive ball gowns and a crown. I worry about what it will do to my reputation if I'm suddenly crowned as a princess and I worry about other things as well."

"What is there to worry about sugar?" Taehyung's green eyes stared up at me with concern, "You know we can get through anything together, right?"

"Listen, you don't have to worry about me, I think this is going to be much harder on you. I don't want tobcomplain about it." I said.

"I think this is going to affect you just as much as it
is going to affect me, okay? Tell me what's bothering
you, I don't like knowing you're upset and not
knowing why." "It's just going to be hard." I admitted.

"What's going to be hard?"

"All of it."

"Jen, come on."

I began to nervously play with Taehyung's fingers,
"everything is going to change, and I'm not sure how
I feel about it, but if it turns out you're not the princethen that is going to cause some dilemmas too."

"What's going to happen if I'm not the prince?"

"Well, for starters, I told your parents they could kill
me." I said, "I think we're beyond that at this point,
because, even if you're not the prince Jaden broke
several laws in the kingdom so it wasn't a complete
waste of time, and if the king and queen aren't
your parents we are going to at least find out what
happened to your real parents."

"My parents will always be the people who raised
me, no questions asked." Taehyung said proudly, "My mom and dad did so much for me, even the king and queen can't compete with them. If it turns out the king and queen aren't my parents I'll be happy to go back to my mom and dad. So now, what are the problems if I do end up being a prince?"I glanced down, ashamed of myself. It was so selfish of me that I didn't even want to admit it.
