♛Royal Fates ♛

CH-22

Current senario:

Jennie and Dahyun are gossiping in the garden as they were getting bored (ofc they dont have anything to do right?)

Dahyun: well u know recently when I went out I saw a lot of rebels on the street and i guess the royal army was there too .

Jennie: Rebels?

Dahyun: yep dont know the reason tho cuz i was here for the past month so all my sources have been a bit mild. But you stay safe as i guess there would be some attacks even in the castle.

Jennie: you too stay stafe, bye.

She went back to her chamber thinking " but why would there be rebels know? i mean there can be some disputes regarding this marriage but on such a big level? i dont think so. "

but then something clicks in her mind. she had overheard one when yoongi and bohemian were fighting bohemian say"why even marry me just go marry that lisa if you like her so much"

Can it be her? i mean it could cuz they know how she was from the starting .

Its the third time she again saw him outside the window today, vanishing at her sight but creeping back right back. She knows hes there she can feel it. The Stalker. The Assasinator. yup he would attack maybe not today maybe not tomorrow but surely someday. its quite common royal people having assasinators at that time and she belives he is related to the reellion to Lisa

Time skip 2 nights later

The private chambers of Princess Jennie, adorned with luxurious fabrics and delicate furnishings. A large window overlooks the moonlit gardens, and a soft glow from a few candles provides dim illumination.

The palace is quiet as the night deepens. Princess Jennie is seated at her writing desk reading a book.A soft breeze rustles the curtains as the window, slightly ajar, allows the cool night air to enter the room.

Unbeknownst to Jennie, a shadow moves silently across the garden below. The assassin, dressed in dark clothing and equipped with a small, lethal blade, climbs the trellis with practiced ease, reaching the window without a sound. Inside, Jennie pauses her reading, feeling an inexplicable sense of unease. She stands and moves toward the window, looking out at the tranquil garden.

As Jennie turns back toward her desk, the assassin slips into the room, closing the distance swiftly. Jennie catches a glimpse of movement in the corner of her eye and spins around, her heart pounding. The assassin lunges, aiming the blade at Jennie's heart. Jennie instinctively grabs a candlestick from her desk, using it to deflect the initial attack. The blade grazes her arm, drawing a thin line of blood.

Jennie, though frightened, fights back with determination. She swings the candlestick, landing a blow to the assassin's shoulder. The impact is enough to stagger the attacker, buying Jennie precious moments. Remembering a hidden dagger given to her for protection, Jennie dives toward her bedside table. She retrieves the dagger just as the assassin recovers and lunges again.

Despite jennie's tries he ran away. The assassin mutters cryptic words about the rebel faction, hinting at a larger conspiracy against the royal family.
