Prince of RAVENTHORE |•KTH•|

34. Dream

The newlywed royal couple ascended the stairs of the royal palace together. The folks were still radiating joy at the back. The bride-no, the regal wife of Kim Taehyung was feeling sensational giddy. Through the white veil, Y/N looked at King Gwanjong and Queen Cheorin who were standing at the grand entrance, there were soldiers lined up along the stairs, she could see some noble women standing behind the royals, and a few noble men were also present.

Standing before the royals, Y/N felt Taehyung's hand loosening his grip on hers, he didn't pull it away, probably waiting for her to do it. 'If it's on me, I would never leave this contrasting warmth of yours' , nobody could see her crimson cheeks when she pulled her hand from his.

"Greetings to his Majesty and her Majesty." Both Taehyung and Y/N uttered in unison while joining their hands on their front gracefully, bowing their heads in respect. It was such a soulful blend of their voices-one's having depth,the other's having softness.

Cheorin was having a big toothy grin, "We've been impatiently waiting for you to arrive." The Queen placed her fingers under Y/N's chin subtly before looking happily at Taehyung. She took a plate of flower petals before showering them upon Taehyung and Y/N, a loving gesture of welcoming.

A few petals reached Jiyeon, Jimin and Yeonjun's hair too as they were standing behind the newlywed couple. Taehyung's dark hair adorned the pink petals which he brushed away subtly while shaking his head silently. And a pink petal gracefully sat on top of YN's head before slipping down her smooth veil.

Cheorin then kissed Y/n's head before kissing Taehyung's. Her ecstasy was boundless and the Princess was ready to giggle, already showing her teeths.

Gwanjong held his head high, the crown shining as he looked at his subjects, he raised his hand to calm them down before speaking loudly, "In the honour and celebration of my son's marriage, I announce the biggest feast for tomorrow. Please be a part of this huge celebration."

The announcement brought loud cheers from the folks again. Gwanjong looked at Taehyung, smiling so wide, patting his shoulder before the royals stepped aside.

Y/N looked at the red carpet spread for them on the floor, a few steps and she'll enter this palace as Taehyung's wife, Kim Y/N. Her heart fluttered in her chest.

But before she could step forward, a woman interrupted, "How can the bride enter simply like this?" There was a hint of tease hidden in her tone. The Princess looked up, finding the source of voice among the noble women. Taehyung's eyes raised too at the interruption.

Feeling everybody's eyes on her, the noble woman chuckled, "Your Majesty, this was a completely unexpected marriage, Taehyung really stole her from her parents, so he is supposed to bring her in with some dignified and sweet gestures.." She trailed off, looking at Cheorin respectfully yet hinting at something.

The Princess smiled at the words, 'stole her from parents'. Jiyeon would be highly agreed though, he literally dropped in Ruwana only to steal Y/N. "So what do you want? Should he carry her in his arms?" Another woman suggested before laughter followed.

Someone's heart did a gentle flip while someone's face twitched subtly. Jiyeon bit her lips behind the Princess while Jimin and Yeonjun suppressed their smiles. Cheorin looked down, secretly smiling.

"Look at the bride, you all will make her beetroot red." Someone among the pretty ladies teased loudly while laughing and Y/N almost gasped with big eyes, 'is the veil not hiding her?' ,The Princess couldn't help looking down, which made everybody laugh in awe. And she indeed turned adorable red.

"Your highness, you're free to choose any gesture you want to bring her in by, but you've to do it otherwise we aren't letting you in today. Your bride may sleep outside." Another teaseful voice was raised and even the royals laughed visibly now.
