We talked for a little bit before she had to leave. The plan was set. My tailor guided me to the fitting room as the boys waited outside for me to finish. "You will look elegant as always my lady" the worker said as he helped me with the dress.

"Thank you, I always look amazing due to your gowns, Sunho" I said looking at myself in the mirror, examining the gown. "Sunho, what you think about this announcement? I know my mother has told you"

"Yes your highness, she did. I think the law is clearly stupid... you shouldn't have to have someone rule by your side. You are a great leader and can do it without a king" he began to pin up the dress. Sunho, always voice his opinions around me because I don't like to sugarcoat things. I think the law is stupid too and to just hear about it makes it more idiotic.

But as I said, I wasn't going to give up my throne because of this. After a couple of hours passed, the dress was completed. I thanked Sunho and went on my way to meet my mother back at the palace. Jin saw how unhappy I was, so he stopped me. "My lady... would you like to get ice cream real quick?" He asked. Jimin face was freaking out, he knows we have to be somewhere, so doing this would make the queen upset. But I agreed to his offer, as ice cream cheers me up.

When we enter the shop, guys around me stare with lust. Jin went to get my ice cream as I sat with Jimin. "Don't worry Jimin, my mother will understand why I'm late. Just tell her that the fitting went a little long"

"You know I'm not obligated to lie my lady, but I will try for you" he bowed. When winking at him, Jungkook came to have a seat next to me.

"Hello your majesty, nice to see you here" he smiled brightly.

"My lord, shouldn't you be heading to the palace for the event?" I asked. Then he told me that he was waiting for Namjoon to arrive before going when that name came up I blushed. Jimin fans me down to calm me, that's when Jin came back with the ice cream. I snatched it and placed it on my cheek. Jungkook laughed at my actions and said I was cute.

We talked a bit little before I had to leave to head back. When entering the throne room, I see the guys lineup to talk to us. My mother had a smile on her face "Why are you late my daughter?"

"Fitting when a little long your majesty, sorry for any convenience" Jimin said. I nodded at Jimin, then I sat down on the throne next to her. There was a long line of guys waiting to speak... I was nervous.

One after another, the nobles introduced themselves and explained why they what to become my king and what they would change when chosen. I was impressed by some but not all, I spotted Jk, behind him was Namjoon... looking handsome than ever. I tried to control myself as I pay attention to the noble that was in front of us.

When it was Jungkook's turn, he made a statement that he didn't want to become king as it was not his place to do so. That he was not ready to rule by my side, but if he was chosen, then he will step up as king. I was proud that he said that because I didn't want him as my husband— I wanted him to stay my friend. My mother shooed him away with a gentle smile.

Next was Namjoon... oh my god. He bowed to us, then bowed to my servants as well to show they are there. "Your majesty's, my name is Kim Namjoon, I'm the proud son of Mistress and Lord Kim of llsan. My family is the highest of nobles from that town... the reason why I came all this way to this kingdom is that I fell in love with the beautiful princess. If I'm chosen to become your groom, then not only I would rule by her side but also care for her deeply"

My mind was blown how well he put that together. The fact he expressed his love for me was puzzling as I just met him the other day. Then explain stories about me and how he loves my personality... my mother was highly impressed by him and so was I. The meeting ended. Yawning, I turned to my mother.

"What now mother? Do we choose now or wait for a little longer?"

"The ball is in three days, then your coronation is in two months after. We must pick at least five nobles today, on the day of the ball that's when we picked your groom. That will give you time to know your groom before the coronation"

"How supposed to fall in love with that person unless then for two months? It's impossible..." I whined, sat back in my throne.

"Who said you had to fall in love with him, once he is picked then that is your king. Whether or not, you fall in love. Those are the laws sweetheart"

The distraught in my face, once the person is picked, he is picked to become my groom. But I didn't let that get to me as he won't be for long. I agreed with my mother and walked out of the room. I went to my bedroom to rest for a little. Plopping down on the bed, Jin, and Jimin when to go sit down next to me.

"Remember what lady Momo said your highness, so it shouldn't matter who the queen picks" Jin mentioned.

"That's right my lady after the wedding drops him like a hot tamale... you are the rightful ruler of this kingdom, he is just there," Jimin said with a smile on his face. I should have Jimin around often... probably steal him from my brother. Speak on my brother, he came in sniffling.

"Dear sister, can I have Jimin back please..." he said with puppy dog eyes.

"Jimin has his orders, he supposed to be with me Hoseok. You have him tomorrow" I teased him.

He says that it's boring without Jimin as he got new servants who don't know what to do with him. He begged again and got on his knees... "Please! I will do anything Mia!"

Laughing at his cuteness, I told Jimin that it's fine to be with his original owner. Jin can handle me by himself. Bowing, he went to help Hoseok up from the ground. When they left, another knock was at the door. Jin went to go open it... "Lady Mia, you have a letter from your majesty. Here is the list of guys she has chosen" the messager bowed and handed Jin the list.

He thanked the messager and closed the door. He sat back down beside me and read the list "Sir Mark, Lord Jinyoung, Lord Sunjae, Sir Felix, and Lord Namjoon... those are the five that the queen has picked"

A huge smile appeared on my face, because all of them were handsome, and one was a good friend of mines. When I heard Namjoon was in here, my heart began to race with anxiety. Why is this person the one that makes me nervous??
