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

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

Seokjin let out a heavy sigh before saying, "One day the king said to Taehyung that the neighboring kingdom needed some help from them. So he told Taehyung to go to the neighboring kingdom along with a few guards and solve the problem instead of him. Prince Taehyung found this suspicious, so he took a promise from his father that he will not do anything to Bella after he leaves the Silla palace."

"So the king didn't keep his promise, right?" Taehyung was disappointed as he sought clarification from Seokjin.

Seokjin's response was solemn as he nodded in confirmation. "Indeed, after Taehyung left the Silla palace, the king summoned Bela to the royal court..."

--300 Years Ago--

--Prince Chamber--

"Miss Bela please don't go to the royal court." Jimin requested. "I suddenly feel uneasy. I have a feeling that something horrible is going to happen."

Bela smiles sadly, "It's bound to happen."

Jimin frowns, "What? What are you saying?"

"My time has come, Master Jimin." Tears escaped from Bela's eyes. "Tell Rao that it's not his fault."

Bela wipes away her tears and is about to walk away but Jimin blocks her path. "I will not let you go. Please don't go for the sake of his Highness."

"Miss Bela!" A guard called her. "Are you not going to obey the king's orders?"

"I am coming." Bela spoke to the guard before returning her attention to Jimin. "Don't get in my way, Master Jimin. You have Rao's swear."

Jimin's eyes filled up with tears. "His Highness cannot live without you. Please don't go!"

"No one can change my fate." Bela responded and followed the guard who came to take her to the royal court.

Meanwhile, Jimin wipes away his tears and quickly writes something on a small piece of paper before calling Haru, his white pigeon.

Jimin rolls the small paper and ties it around the pigeon's leg, "Haru, you must deliver my message to his highness at any cost."

.

Taehyung, on the other hand, crossed the boundary line of the Silla kingdom.

After a few minutes, Haru approached Taehyung and sat on his shoulder.

Taehyung halted his horse and untied the tiny paper tied around Haru's leg.

"What message did you bring for me, Haru?" Taehyung carresed the pigeon's head with his index finger before unfolding the paper.

Taehyung's heart stopped beating for a second after reading the message written on the paper. He immediately switches direction and dashes for the Silla kingdom.

--Royal Court--

"Welcome, Miss Bela. I hope you're doing well." The king asked, forcing a smile.

Bela takes a deep breath and nods.

The king scoffs, "Of course you will be, after all, you have my son wrapped around your little finger."

Bela looks at the king, her eyes filled with rage.

"Lower your eyes Miss Bela." The king ordered.

Bela looks down and asks, "Why are you wasting time standing behind me?" She spoke, widening everyone's eyes in the royal court.

Bela smiles and turns around to see the king's minister standing in front of her, holding a sword.

"I am not only gifted with healing abilities." Bela smirks, "Aren't you afraid that if you kill me, something will happen to you after I pass away?" She questioned the minister, and he immediately dropped his sword.

Bela turns around to face the king. "Your majesty, you must know everything about me. But no one knows who my parents are. Nobody knows where I belong. Everyone knows only one thing about me that I was found at the feet of Goddess Kali's idol. I believe I have her blessing. And I think of her as my mother." Bela walks towards the king and says, "What if anyone tries to kill me, and she wants to avenge her child's death?"

Everyone in the royal court shivers after hearing Bela.

The king rose from his seat, enraged. "Why are you all so scared? She is simply messing around." He looks at Bela, "I must protect my son from this wench."

"अपनी जुबां पर नियंत्रण रखीये, किम जेवूक!" [ Hold your tongue, Kim Jae wook! ] Bela shouted.

.

.

Taehyung, on the other hand, rushes through the palace gate and gets off his horse before going inside the palace. On his way to the royal court, he bumps into Jimin.

"Jiminaa, where's Bela? Is she still in the Royal Court?" Taehyung asked, breathing heavily.

Jimin nods, "Your highness, we need to hurry up!"

Taehyung nods and sprints to the royal court, followed by Jimin.

As soon as they reach the royal court, a few guards stop them at the door. "Your Highness, you cannot go in." One of the guards spoke.

Taehyung grabs the guard's collar. "YOU CANNOT STOP ME! OPEN THE DOOR! IT'S MY ORDER!"

Meanwhile, the king roared in anger,"HOW DARE YOU ADDRESS ME, THE SILLA KING, BY MY NAME?" He pulled his sword from its scabbard and shoved it into Bela's stomach.

"AHHH!" Bela's scream echoes throughout the palace.

"Just die, and leave my son alone." The king said and pulled his sword from her stomach before thrusting it back into her stomach.

On the other side, Taehyung heard Bela's scream and pushed through all of the guards to enter the royal court, where he saw his father aggressively withdrawing the sword from Bela's stomach.

"BELA!" Taehyung rushes towards Bela and catches her in his arms before she falls to the ground.

Bela looks at Taehyung with a bitter smile, "I'm sorry, Rao. Sorry for leaving you behind."

"N- No!" Taehyung shakes his head, crying his heart out. "Please stay by my side. I can't live without you, Bela."

"I'm sorry!" Bela's voice came out as a whisper, and she slowly closed her eyes.

"NOOO!" Taehyung screams in pain. "YOU CANNOT LEAVE ME, BELA!" He hugs her tightly.
