: I am What You are :

"You are going where?!"

Jennie pursed her lips into a straight line and Seokjin's limbs went numb.

He was worried about Taehyung's reaction to his planning the most.But,he definitely hadn't thought about a scenario like this.

"I am going back to the North,Oraboni. I mean....we are.... And....since I am going there, Jisoo is joining me too.",the alpha tilted her head,her expression conveying a lot of emotions, guilt,concern and a hint of disappointment.

She must be upset with Seokjin,upset with his decision and the way he had chosen his mother even after knowing the whole truth.

A sudden wave of nausea hit Seokjin and he clutched the desk infront of him for some support.

Taehyung's declaration has earned a number of unacceptance from the peasants on the very first day of Seokjin's reign.

And well,Seokjin was not at all surprised. He knew this would happen.Breaking the norms were never easy,anyways.

He knows that he needs to keep patience and faith in himself. If Taehyung had believed in his abilities,then why can't he do that?

He was still not sure though. But he would try. He would try his best to gain his kingdom's faith. And he knew that he has a long journey to accomplish.It was the first day only.

And in midst of all these thoughts that were stressing him out, he just learned that his sister and her mate is leaving the kingdom!

And Jennie even mentioned "we",didn't she? Did she want to mean that.......

"Oraboni.....",Jennie's voice cut off his internal monologue.

"I don't have anything against you.Trust me,I never had and I'll never have.But.....I don't trust your mother. I don't feel my mate and my child to be safe under the same roof with that woman.And....besides that,even the Northerners want to go back since Tae is not the ruler anymore.So I thought..... we should go back with them too.Princess would be safe there,I promise you."

"Eomonie is house arrested, Jennie.... I promise you that everything will be fine.Just...",Seokjin heaved a sigh.

He couldn't even ask the younger to trust him after the way he played with their trust.

Seokjin knows this helpless feeling way too well.

"Oraboni, I understand how you're feeling right now.But,believe me,I...... I don't have any grudges against you.I don't have any complain with you. Its just that..... My family is my first priority. And I...I can't risk any of them.I believe that they would be much safer there. Please try to understand...",Jennie looked at the older with sad eyes.

Seokjin averted his gaze,gulping down the suffocating lump in his throat before the Younger Prince stormed inside the office room.

"Hyung,they have arrived!"

Jeongguk's doe eyes sparkled as Hoseok climbed up the stairs of their palace.

The older alpha beamed at him before engulfing the younger into a bear hug.
