Chapter - 34

Listening to Taehyung, Jungkook cast a sidelong glance at him. Taehyung began to speak again, saying,

--" There was this one ray of light, the Empress of the King's heart, who made him feel something different for the first time. His heartbeat pounded harder and harder, so much that he felt it echo within. The King had never heard his heart beat this way before. He first saw him at a wedding, his elder brother's wedding, where he didn't want to be. The King hated crowds and found no joy in the presence of people. He was furious that day, overwhelmed by the noise and unwanted faces around him. Had he not come, love would never have found him. He would have taken his last breath without knowing love.

Taehyung finished with a sigh, lost in thought. His words made something stir in Jungkook's chest, almost as if the final sentence had struck him deeply. Taehyung wrapped Jungkook closer to him, as he continued to gaze at the sky and speak once more.

--" He wore a blue dress, his hands filled with flowers, his ankles adorned with some flowers too, and his long shiny hair swaying over his forehead. His big eyes fixed upon the King, hitting him right here." he said, pressing a finger to his chest. "His round, rosy cheeks were sweet as candy, I almost wanted to take a bite." he added with a soft chuckle.

--" He was like an angel from a magical land, and in that brief time, he made the fierce King feel love for the first time. Looking at him, he felt he was meant to be his, and only his. No one else could have him. His possessiveness over his little angel grew, and for the first time, fear entered his heart-the fear of losing him. Yes, even the ruthless King was afraid, afraid of losing his angel. He became more possessive, but he didn't want his angel to know this side of him, didn't want his sunshine to fear him. But fate had different plans, and the angel did learn of his darker side, and yes, the little angel feared him. The King could not bear the thought of anyone looking at his angel, let alone daring to touch him. To protect him from prying eyes, he had to become fierce, and for him, the King would always stay fierce.

Taehyung ended firmly, looking intently at Jungkook.

--" That day, as the King was busy admiring his angel, his gaze fell upon a waiter who dared to look at him with vile intentions. The King's inner rage burned like a wildfire. He, who had not allowed anyone even to look upon his beloved, could he let that beast get away? Tell me, Jungkook.

Taehyung gently turned Jungkook's face towards him,

--" how could the King ever let that filthy hands touch his angel?

Shocked, Jungkook whispered softly,

--" He tried to touch the angel?

Taehyung, bringing Jungkook close once again, replied gently,

--" Yes, he tried to TOUCH!

--" The innocent little angel, who was busy hiding himself from the King behind his elder sister, unaware of his protective gaze on him, didn't notice as a waiter intentionally spilled his drink on his beautiful blue dress. While he didn't understand, the King, deeply infatuated, saw it all. As the waiter repeatedly offered to 'clean up' the drink from his clothes, trying to touch him. The King's anger and ferocity only grew. The waiter's lustful glances at the angel's innocent form made the King's blood boil. The waiter had planned to harm him if he went alone to the washroom, but how could the King ever allow that to happen? He would sooner tear off the arm that reached for his heart.

Swallowing hard, Jungkook looked at Taehyung and asked,

--" What happened after that?

Taehyung looked at Jungkook with a smile and said,

--" Then what happened? The princess had witnessed the King commit murder, and since then, fear grew in his heart for the king. He tried to escape from the king but couldn't, and was caught right in front of him. The king threatened to force him into marriage. Everything seemed fine until then, but suddenly the princess's childhood friend became desperate to marry him. Out of fear, he couldn't tell anyone. He had had a bad eye on the princess since childhood and wanted to take him far away from the king, but the king eliminated him before that could happen. Anyone who disrespects his love or casts an evil eye on him will meet a terrible end. The King will do anything for his princess, but if anyone looks at his angel with bad intentions or tries to harm him, according to his law, they will face a harsh death, and it will be a horrible one.
