--300 Years Ago--

"किसे धूंड रहे है राव?" [ Who are you looking for, Rao?" ]

Taehyung turns around and abruptly averted his gaze, his heart raced with the awareness of Bela's presence. "I- I was..." He was struggling to find the right words but soon he was cut off by Jimin.

"Your highness, mangoes are here." Jimin said while approaching Taehyung and Bela with a basket in his hand.

Bela's eyes sparkled with delight upon laying eyes on the luscious mangoes nestled in the basket. "Mangoes!" Unable to contain her excitement, Bela's gaze shifted towards Taehyung. "If you don't mind can I take a mango from the basket?"

In response to Bela's request, Taehyung's lips curled into a warm smile. "These mangoes are for you."

"Really?" Bela asked in excitement, to this Taehyung simply replied with a nod, fueling her excitement further.

Jimin courteously passes the basket to Bela, who eagerly accepts it from his hand and promptly retreats into her chamber to eat.

--Present--

Seokjin takes a seat on the bed and looks out of the window. "Since that day, Prince Taehyung has covertly followed Bela everywhere. And one day, he decided to confess to her."

--300 Years Ago--

"Bela I want to talk to you about something. Can I?" Taehyung asked hesitantly.

"Rao, you are the prince; you don't need my permission to talk about anything."

Taehyung smiles and bites his bottom lip. "Before we go into that, could you just tell me why you keep calling me 'Rao'? What exactly does 'Rao' mean?" Taehyung inquires Bela who is caressing the back of her favourite white horse.

Bela smiles as she looks at Taehyung. "Rao means someone who is auspicious. It also means 'Raja'. A king."

"But I'm not a king. I am the prince of Silla." Taehyung said in confusion.

"Rao, you are the king." Bela approaches Taehyung with a gentle smile on her face. "The king who rules my heart." Taehyung's cheeks flush with a rosy hue upon hearing Bela's words.

He again delicately inquires, his voice laced with a hint of shyness, "What do you mean by that? Does that mean you like me?" He asks as he gazes at Bela, a mixture of curiosity and hope, lingers on him awaiting her response with bated breath.

Meanwhile, Jimin stands at a distance. Fingers crossed in anticipation. Jimin offers his silent support to Taehyung, rooting for a positive outcome at the moment.

Bela shook her head. "No! I don't like you."

Jimin sighs heavily.

"Oh!" Taehyung lowers his head in disappointment.

Bela chuckles at Taehyung's crestfallen expression. Without missing a beat, she envelopes him in a warm embrace, causing him to flinch slightly. Amidst the playful banter and teasing, she gently whispers, "I don't like you, Rao. I love you with all my heart."

Taehyung found himself on cloud nine upon hearing Bela's heartfelt confession. Overwhelmed with emotion, he wrapped his arms around Bela's waist, basking in the sheer joy of the moment. he lifted her slightly off the ground and gently spun her around,

Meanwhile, Jimin stood witness to this heartwarming scene, his own heart brimming with happiness for his friend. Unable to contain his excitement, he couldn't help but jump up and down with joy.

Taehyung, on the other hand, leans in to affectionately kiss Bela's cheeks making Jimin, grin from ear to ear and playfully covers his eyes.

--Present--

"What happened after that?" Taehyung asks Seokjin as he takes a seat next him.

Seokjin sighs, "The king found out about them. The king didn't like how his son fell in love with a dancer."

"But she cured his son. So he shouldn't feel that way." Taehyung said angrily.

"However, that did not change his mind. He first warned Prince Taehyung, saying he would expel Bela from the Silla kingdom. But Prince Taehyung stated that..."

--300 Years Ago--

--King's Chamber--

"KIM TAEHYUNG, YOU BETTER LISTEN TO ME OR I WILL THROW THAT DANCER OUT OF THE SILLA KINGDOM BY HUMILIATING HER IN FRONT OF EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN SILLA." Kim Jae Wook roared in anger.

"If you do so, I'll follow her. Because I vowed to follow Bela's every step in this life. I shall be there where Bela will be." Taehyung said coldly.

"You have gone crazy over that dancer." The king gritted his teeth in anger.

Taehyung makes a fist and says, "Call her Bela. I don't like it when you call her a dancer."

Kim Jae wook scoffs looking at his son. "Why not? Isn't she a dancer?"

"Yes, she is!" Taehyung replied. "But the way you addressed her as a dancer feels offensive."

Taehyung takes a deep breath before adding, "Appa, Bela will not leave the palace. If I find out that you forced her to leave, I will never sit on Silla's throne." After saying this, he leaves the king's chamber.

--Present--

"So did the Silla king approve Bela and Prince Taehyung's love?" Taehyung looks at Seokjin curiously. "Did they both have a happy ending?"

Seokjin shakes his head. "They were bound to have a sad ending."

"Why? What happened to them?" Taehyung asked anxiously.

Seokjin stares at his brother with a sad expression. "They died!"

Taehyung let out a gasp. "H- How?"
