There is a fire between them. Even Jungkook was a devil. He used Y/N for his benefit, but still, his heart desired her. After marriage, he never forced himself, just small interactions or kisses. Jungkook got busy handling the king's position. He was a great king but also cruel. He ended the enemy with his raven, firing the whole village. Every other enemy started to fear him; they already knew Jungkook was the most powerful and cruellest man in the world. He never hesitated to kill anyone. Meanwhile, his mother was angry, still thinking that the king's position deserved to be Lucas's. On the other hand, Lucas was planning something different.

Y/N was sitting on her bed and reading a book. She flinched when the door opened with a loud thud. She looked at him; he seemed slightly angry. He started to come toward her, threw the book away, and buried his head in her neck. She started to process what he did. Her fear was gone because she had accepted this life with him. She began to see him as her husband, but sometimes her heart clenched when she saw him killing people and being angry. In these five months, she never felt like something was missing. He was always there for her. Her heart was always filled with one question: did he love her or not because she was falling for him? Her thoughts broke when Jungkook tightened his grip around her waist, squeezing her in his arms and sniffing her neck. "What happened?" she asked curiously. He hummed, "I need to rest, let me relax," he said. Y/N nodded and caressed his head while his eyes started to close. She made him lie down and got up to prepare something for him.

She came toward the kitchen area where every maid was working. Seeing the queen, they bowed to her. “No, it's okay,” Y/N said with a soft smile. “Do you need something, queen?” one maid asked. She shook her head no. “You already know I always prepare food for your king with my own hands,” she said with a smile. “Let me put all the ingredients here, queen,” the maid said. Y/N nodded, tied her hair in a bun, and started to prepare the food until her eyes landed on the previous queen, Jeon's mother.

“Do you need something, mother?” Y/N asked politely. She wanted not to involve herself with his mother but still talked sometimes, maintaining her distance. “Nothing, I wonder why you are working in the kitchen. It's the maid's work to do,” she said, taking a glass of water. “I feel like doing it for my husband,” Y/N said. “Husband? Don’t get yourself close to him. What if he kills you too?” his mother said. Y/N's smile faded as she looked at her. “Why do you hate him so much?” she finally asked. “Hate? Hate is a small word. Even though he is my son, he is cursed,” his mother said. Before she could say more, Y/N interrupted, “Enough. I'm sorry, I don't know why you hate him, but that doesn't mean you can say something wrong about him. He is my husband and the king,” she said. She didn't like to hear bad things about him. Her heart clenched, seeing his mother hating him.

“King, husband, and also killer,” his mother said. “I feel like I'm talking to a wall. Martha, please send the food to the room,” Y/N said to the maid and started toward her room, not wanting to talk with his mother anymore. “Don’t you  want to know what he did? Why do I hate him?” his mother said, signalling the others to leave. Y/N turned back to look at her, waiting to hear. “I was happy when I gave birth to him, but suddenly, when he was 7 years old, he did something which I can't forget and made me hate him,” his mother said, wiping her tears. “What did he do?” Y/N asked..

"His power killed my parents and also put Lucas life in risk as well. When I reached home, I saw Jungkook standing in the room while my parents were already dead and Lucas was unconscious. When Lucas woke up, he told me how Jungkook tried to kill him and killed my parents. I'm telling you, Y/N, before it's too late, leave him or run away. He is not worth it," his mother said.  "No," she said. JK's mother looked at her. "I don't know why, but maybe you got a misunderstanding. Why would he kill them without a motive? Did you ever try to ask him? And maybe if he did, it was unintentional. He was just 7 years old. How did he know what was bad or good? Maybe his power was out of control, but that doesn't mean you should live in the past and still hate him," Y/N said.
