Kingdoms [A Jimina Story]

[Bonus] TaeSana

Stick around for an announcement at the end :P This story isn't proofread, sorry.

Taehyung has finally finished his training. Being on top of his class and exemplary in his physical combat, he was sent straight to the palace. As he walks the halls, he starts to imagine the different jobs he could be assigned. He could guard the Myoui Mina. He could adventure along with Chaeyoung or Suga on their secret missions. Maybe even get a solo mission or two. His expectations rise as he takes a step.

He's in front of Suga's office and inhales then exhales. Taehyung knocks on the door and as he hears Suga say, "Come in." he walks in. As he enters the shorter man's office for the very fist time, his eyes widened at the various trophies on his shelves. Suga then says, "Have a seat and some tea, Mina will be here soon." Taehyung stutters, "M-mina? The queen?" He nods and in a few seconds the door opens once again. 

Mina walks in with Chaeyoung with a blank expression on her face. She eyes Taehyung and says, "Who's the newbie?" Taehyung sits straight and looks forward with a stern expression. Chaeyoung says, "Ahh, he's that guy who just finished his training. If my memories are correct, then he's about our age maybe a little bit older." Taehyung nods and Suga says, "So why'd you call us here?" Mina stretches his arms as she just woke up from a nap and says, "I'm thirsty and I've been craving watermelon smoothies."

Taehyung looks at her questionably as the other two sigh knowing what she's about to say. Mina says, "Get me some watermelons, please." Suga and Chaeyoung walk out grumpily and as Chaeyoung scoffs, "At least she said please." This leaves Mina and Taehyung in the room. She gestures him to stand and he obliges. Mina says, "Wow, you're handsome. She's gonna like you a lot."

Taehyung blushes and waits for her order as she says, "My friend is visiting for a few days. She's kind of important to me and the country so I'm entrusting you to... erm... guard her." Taehyung bows and says, "It will be my pleasure." Mina dismisses him and he starts to walk out. As he's under the door frame, Mina says, "Wait!" He turns around and she says, "She'll arrive in a few minutes. Good luck." Taehyung thanks her and makes his way out.

A few minutes later, a small carriage brings over the guest. Taehyung clears his throat and straightens his clothes as he waits for her. A beautiful bubbly lady walks out of the carriage feeling energetic. His eyes widened at the energy she emits and the shining light from her smile. She makes eye contact with him and pouts. Taehyung becomes confused and she says, "I swear, Mina doesn't trust me to do anything here. She always assigns a babysitter, at least you're handsome." 

Taehyung stands there confused and she says, "I'm Sana. I guess you're stuck with me for a few days, get ready we're leaving after I unpack." Taehyung questions, "Leaving?" Sana nods and says, "The black mambas are in breeding season and we need some snake eggs. Tonight is the best time for it, so help me unpack." Taehyung follows her to her room flustered as she rushes through the halls. Taehyung feels excited, confused, and disappointed. He feels excited because of his sense of adventure. But confused because of this mysterious figure before him. However, disappointment is also felt because after all his training, he's stuck on babysitting duty.

As they make their ways through the halls, they run into Suga and Chaeyoung. Chaeyoung looks at Taehyung concerned while Suga chuckles. As Sana goes to greet Mina, Chaeyoung says, "Poor thing. His first job is to guard Sana." Taehyung raises an eyebrow and says, "Why? Is it that bad?" Suga nods and says, "But don't worry, if you make it back alive then you get to guard Mina." Taehyung stutters, "M-make it back alive?" Sana then rejoins them and holds his wrist.

She drags him away as Chaeyoung and Suga wish him good luck. A few minutes later and they're deep in the forest. Sana has a small lamp as Taehyung follows behind. She turns and glare at him and he asks, "Is there something wrong?" Sana points at his armor and says, "Take it off." Taehyung looks at her confused once again and she says, "It's too noisy and heavy. I don't want to scare anything away because you're too scared to get bitten." 

He sighs and takes off his armor. Sana then stops and says, "Shhhh." Taehyung pauses and she whispers, "I need you to distract the mama snakes so I can take her eggs. Don't get bitten, you'll die in a few seconds. Okay?" Taehyung asks, "Wait, what?" Sana then says, "Three... two... and go!" Taehyung panics and picks up a stick to pull away the mother snake. As he does it slowly, Sana sneakily takes all four of the snake eggs. Taehyung throws the snake away as the two run off to a safer area.

Sana high fives him and says, "Good job, only a dozen more and we're done for the night." After several life threatening attempts, they finally finish taking all the eggs. They soon rest on a beach with a broken down port. They lie on their backs taking a rest from all the scares and attempts. Taehyung asks, "So why did you need the snake eggs?" Sana yawns and says, "I'll tell you tomorrow." Sana hands Taehyung her small bag as she moves to the lake to wash her face. Teahyung asks, "Do you have water?"

Sana nods and says, "It's in the bag." Taehyung takes a bottle and fully chugs it. As Sana dries her hair, she looks at him worried and yell, "YAH! THAT'S NOT WATER!" Taehyung spits out what's in his mouth but is too late because he swallowed most of the liquid. He says, "W-what did I just drink?" 

Sana wipes her forehead and says, "That was experimental coma potion. Once you fall asleep, you're never going to wake up." Taehyung panics and says, "There's no antidote?" Sana says, "No, but a sudden change in body temperature could lessen the effects. I need you to take off all your clothes and jump in the lake." Taehyung hesitates and says, "What?" She yells, "RIGHT NOW!" 

He takes his clothes off and quickly jumps into the freezing lake. Sana dies of laughter on the shore and he says, "When do I get off?" Sana then says, "NOW GET ON THE SHORE AND START DANCING!" He yells back, "What?" Sana says, "YOUR BODY TEMPERATURE WILL INCREASE FROM THE SUDDEN MOVEMENT! HURRY!" He quickly follows what she says and Sana dies of laughter. Taehyung quickly catches on and says, "You're lying to me aren't you."

She nods in the middle of her laughter as he quickly dries up and puts his clothes on. He starts ignoring her due to his anger as she tries to get his attention. Sana says cutely, "Taehyung~ Taehyungie~ Taehyungie~ Taetae~ Teahyung oppa~" Taehyung fights his urges and chooses to ignore her. Sana then pouts and says, "Whatever, you drank my love serum so you can't ignore me forever. I also have the only sleeping bag, so good night." 

Teahyung starts to panic, "Love potion?" Sana falls asleep in her comfortable and warm sleeping bag as Taehyung drifts to sleep at the foot of a tree. The next morning, he wakes up to an angelic feeling. It's warm.

As his eyes flutter open, he can feel a sudden breathe on his neck and he shivers. He looks around and quickly notices that he's inside Sana's sleeping bag. He feels her limbs wrapped around his body and tries to break from her embrace. Sana complains, "Yah! I'm tired, let's sleep for a little longer." 

Taehyung blushes and she says, "Wow, did you fall in love with me already because I can feel your heartbeat." He continues to blush as she says, "It's good if you fall in love with me, I like the feeling." She falls asleep again as Taehyung lays shocked with her exact words replaying in his mind.

As they pack up and ensure the snake eggs are safe, the two go back to the palace in a silent and awkward walk. Taehyung suddenly asks, "So that was a love serum I drank?" Sana stays quiet then says, "Why? Did you fall in love with me?" He says shyly with his head bowed down, "Maybe, that's a really strong potion." She giggles and says, "It was water." He looks at her shocked and she flashes a genuine smile and says, "Don't worry, I like you too." Taehyung then says, "Water?"

Sana nods and says, "You're Taehyung right? I'll tell Mina good things about you but you have to promise me..." She stops walking and so does he. Sana closes the distance between the two and Taehyung stands still. Sana places a deep kiss as she tiptoes to meet his lips. Taehyung's eyes close as he returns the kiss. She breaks away and says, "Promise me that you'll guard me whenever I come back." Taehyung says, "I'll protect you with my life."

the end

{Remember when I said my next book won't be a Jimina book? Well, I lied. I'm currently working on two books with one of them almost done. The first one I will upload will be a high school romance book containing several rookie groups, such as Stray Kids, Izone, Everglow, Itzy, TXT, and Gidle. The second one will be a murder mystery book where Jimin and Mina are couple investigators investigating on the murder of Jihyo's husband, Kang Daniel, who is also a CEO.}
