Prince's Spell

Cold Interaction

Ch-26

"Yoongi stop whining like a kid" Wong said to Yoongi, "You are grown up and I am thinking to make you marry after Jin" Yoongi's jaw dropped, "What? Marriage? Hell, no!!" Wong rolled his eyes in disbelief at Yoongi's reaction and chuckled. "Yes, marriage. You're not a child anymore. Jin is already getting married soon, and as the next in line for the throne, it's time for you to consider it as well." Yoongi sighed heavily, his usually stoic expression shifting to one of disbelief. "Marriage, really? I thought I still had some time before having that burden shoved onto me."

"That's not a burden, it's a responsibility. I am already handling your mother" Wong said, not scared since his wife isn't here. Yoongi rolled his eyes and sighed again, running a hand through his hair in frustration. "I mean, I know it's a responsibility, but still, marriage? Can't I enjoy my freedom for a bit longer?" Wong chuckled, unfazed by Yoongi's protest. "Enjoy your freedom? Son, you've been enjoying your freedom for years. It's time to think about the future, both for yourself and the kingdom."

"Now don't say I will be a king as well. Because your heir is Jin hyung not me" Wong chuckled at Yoongi's remark. "Correct, Jin is indeed the heir to the throne and your older brother. However, it doesn't mean you're completely off the hook when it comes to responsibilities. As a prince, you still have duties to fulfill, even if they are less burdensome than being a king."

"Even if I agree to do the responsibilities, don't expect me to marry and get kids" Yoongi said in disinterested way. Wong sighed and gave Yoongi a knowing look. "I understand your reluctance, Yoongi. But ultimately, marrying and having an heir are crucial for the stability of our bloodline and the kingdom. It's not just a personal choice; it's a duty to our people."

A guard came to Wong, "Your highness a letter has come from Crystal Kingdom for you" Wong smiled at the mention, "Yes give it to me" Wong took the letter from the guard and read it. A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth as he scanned the contents. Yoongi looked at the letter as well and his jaw dropped, "you fixed my marriage??" He turned to Yoongi, "Yes, son, Ed has proposed a meeting to discuss an alliance between you and Diana."

Yoongi's disbelief turned into a mix of shock and irritation. He groaned, "Are you serious? An alliance with Diana?" Yoongi couldn't believe his father did the same with him as Jin. "Father, I told you I will not marry anyone right now" Wong sighed, his expression showing a mixture of understanding and determination. "Yoongi, I know you're hesitant about marriage, but this is not just about you. The alliance with Crystal Kingdom can greatly benefit our kingdom. It's a strategic decision, and as a prince, you must consider the bigger picture."

With a resigned sigh, Yoongi followed his father's lead, mentally preparing himself for the upcoming journey to the Crystal Kingdom. He couldn't help but feel a pang of annoyance at the thought of being thrown into yet another potential commitment. Meanwhile, Wong went to his room to get ready for the trip. Yoongi and Wong set off on their journey to the Crystal Kingdom, each riding their horses and accompanied by a few guards who rode alongside them. The horses trotted along the path, the sound of their hooves echoing in the air. As they rode, the landscape around them slowly began to change, transitioning from the familiar terrain of their kingdom to the more rugged and mountainous surroundings of the Crystal Kingdom.

Meanwhile in the Crystal Kingdom, "What?" Diana asked, arrogance evident in her tone. The maid who informed her, stepped back in fear. "What did you just say?" Diana asked again. "T-the e-emperor fixed you a-alliance with the prince of Rosefall kingdom" the maid said, stuttering. Diana's expression shifted from arrogance to disbelief as she processed the maid's words. She couldn't comprehend why her father would even consider such an alliance with the prince of Rosefall. "My father did what? An alliance with the prince of Rosefall?" Diana repeated, her voice laced with irritation.
