JIMIN POV

I'd never heard prettier words.

And Jungkook was apologizing too? To me?

When he first walked into
the formal room behind
Father, he was still in shadow.

I wasn't sure what I would
see, what I was actually
getting here.

But when he came into the
light I felt it.

More than instant attraction.

It was a feeling I'd never had before, like suddenly I had a future.

Every cell in my body
became transformed.

A filter lifted from my
thoughts, my eyes.

I focused hard to be steady
and calm.

Living in this household, I'd learned how to be the demon
doll my fathers raised at an
early age.

When I was younger, I cried a
lot because I was often sick.

The world had rejected me.

My fathers tried everything
from over-indulging me in
luxury to hiring nannies.

No nanny lasted because
they were of the faith.

The promise of a high wage
to look after me could not overcome their fears of
helping to raise a demon.

The church offered no
alternative assistance and sometimes I felt sorry about
that for my parents sake.

All of those feelings came
back to me in quick succession as the alpha walked into the room, introduced himself with wide eyes at my appearance
and began to assimilate the
full picture.

My parents had outright lied
by omission on my profile.

That couldn't be argued.

My hopes rose and fell so
many times in mere minutes,
I was nearly swooning.

This alpha was beautiful to
me, like a dream.

My body went hot at the
sight of him.

My heart thrummed as my
inner omega bloomed for the
first time.

The conversation was weird because of my fathers' lies.

My compulsion with Jungkook was not to lie.

When I told him I was a
demon, I was being sarcastic.

Partially.

But who could know what superstitious mumbo-jumbo
also ruled an outside world I could only see slices of online?

So many contradictions flew through my mind.

I wanted to get up and run straight to Jungkook and beg
him to take me.

I wanted to fall onto the floor
in a puddle of tears and
tell everyone to leave.

But I had to stay calm.

And tell the truth.

I blurted out. "I wanted to
marry you when you first
walked into the room."

I could feel the sorrow
welling up inside me.

Greater than the darkness I
lived in.

It was slicing through me
like knives.

This moment was life and
death for me.

When Jungkook casually
said."Yes, I'll marry you." and apologized for not bringing a ring, everything went blurry.
