Chapter 10: Marriage?!?

*Play song while reading***

Seo Yeon's P.O.V:

"2nd Prince, Prince Min Hyuk and 4th Prince, Prince Young Jae are going to be wed to two

beautiful and lovely women who I consider my daughters." The king says. I look at the king

with wide eyes and so do the princes along with Hae Eun. "Your majesty you did not speak

of this to your jury." I say. "I know, but this was a personal matter so I didn't discuss it with

the jury." He explains. "But Appa, I do not want to marry someone else. I'm sorry but I cannot

marry." Young Jae says as he bows. "I have to agree with Young Jae, I love someone else, I

can't marry." Min Hyuk says as he bows as well. "Lady Hae and Lady Yeon are the two

women you both will marry." The king says. Both Princes stop talking and stand up straight.

"Who will I marry your majesty?" Hae Eun asks. "Lady Hae you will be marrying The Second

Prince and Lady Yeon you will be marrying The Fourth Prince." The king states. I feel happy,

is it because I slowly began to learn how to love Young Jae? I turn to face the Princes, Young

Jae looks happy but Min Hyuk looks both angry and sad. "The wedding will be held in a

week, now I will leave so you can continue the picnic." He says. We all go back to sitting

in silence. "So we are getting married in a week." Hae Eun says to break the silence. We

look at her. "Are you okay with this, if you are not, I can tell the king to break this marriage."

Young Jae says to me. "I'm fine. I'm okay with marrying you." I tell him. He smiles. "Welcome

to the royal family sister in laws!!" Han Sung says. He comes to both Hae Eun and I, he hugs

us. She happily hugs him, I put on a fake smile and hug him.

Memory:

"Learn to love him, you will marry him anyways." She tells me. "Why though." I ask. "Your

mother asked for this to be granted, so now, learn to love Prince Young Jae." She says. "This

is what you had to tell me, Princess." I say. She nods. "I'm sorry cousin, but we had to, this

marriage will also grant peace between Goguryeo and Silla." She says. I just decide to not

look at her. "Do this for us, for your mother." She pleads. I look at her. "Why do I need to

learn to love him... If I will eventually lose him. I don't want to get too attached." I say. "You

are know what might happen, we don't know if that villager may be right, but he did have

this." She say as she hands me a scroll. "It's ripped..." I say. "It's the picture of the future king

of Silla." She says. I look at the scroll. My eyes widen. "I think the other part of this scroll is

supposed to be the queen." She says. I take out the scroll I have. "This is her." I say. We put

both scrolls together and the slowly fixed itself. "You are the future queen of Silla." She says

surprised. "I don't know if this true, but it says I am." I say.

"Take the scroll, and try to protect them, this is how you will pay me back." She says as she

hands me the scroll. "I will." I say as I bow. I then grab the scroll, turn around, and leave.

Present:

"Hopefully I will keep that promise." I say in my head. "Shall we continue this picnic as a

celebration for the new couples?" Hyun Min says. We all nod.

One Week Later:

It was the day of the wedding, I was extremely nervous. I was heading to my room when

someone held my wrist. "Min Hyuk, let me go." I say as I try to pull away. "Tell me you

love me, we can go away from here and be together." He says. "As much as I would love

too, I can't do that, or else I may become Hae Eun and Young Jae will become the most

feared Prince in the Silla Kingdom." I say in my head. I pull away. "Leave me alone." I say.

I begin to walk away. I walk inside to my room and see Hae Eun.
