The Heir

♛ Previously on The Heir ♛

"Jimin will now announce the first contestant to get disqualified."

Jimin's eyes scanned through all the contestants and his eyes solely landed on me.

Oh shit.

"Choi Areum"

~ Areum's POV ~

Everyone's eyes were on me as I continued to fidget in my seat. What was I supposed to do now? Was I supposed to leave, or maybe go say goodbye to him? I looked in Jin's direction to get some advice but he seemed as shocked as I was.

I quietly got up from my seat and walked over to Jin wanting to say goodbye to him before leaving. However before I could reach Jin, Jimin had taken me by the hand and pulled my body towards him. I was startled by the sudden action as was everyone else. My cheeks turned a red hue due to the closeness of our frames. I reluctantly met Jimin's gaze and noticed that he was smirking down at me causing me to blush even harder.

He slowly started to lean forward until his lips were beside my ear

"Congratulations on making it to the next round.... princess."

What?

"I guess Prince Jimin wasn't listening when I said this was the elimination round. Haha but it's okay! Choi Areum has progressed to the next round! Congratulations!"

Park Jimin was full of himself.

After the scene he had made in front of everyone not to mention in front of the entire kingdom, he nonchalantly continued with the elimination round. He was ruthless with the elimination, he had no emotions at all. One of the girls was so hurt that she started to cry however Jimin was having none of it so he had her escorted out of the castle because she was "disturbing the peace and quiet".

After that fiasco, I was ready to leave myself, but I refrained from doing so. This competition was being aired throughout the entire kingdom and I didn't want to ruin my family's image by doing something reckless.

Jimin had eliminated five girls and his reasoning was repulsive. Contestant two: Kim Min-jung was too quiet, contestant six: Song Aecha was too loud, contestant seven: Dong Dasom was really boring, contestant twenty-five: Song Woong had a weird name, and lastly contestant twenty-two: Lee Bomi. Lee Bomi's elimination was probably the only proper elimination made since she was drunk.

After the elimination Jimin took his leave, causing all of his psycho fan-girls to shriek once again. I mean these girls were crazy. They were taking this competition very seriously, and oh my god the drama was unbearable. Hyuna had accidentally bumped into one of the twins; Kim Nari and she lost her shit. Nari had started to accuse Hyuna of almost breaking her arm and she had even threatened her, telling her to watch her back. It was the first night and it was already jam-packed with drama, mom and Jungkook must have been having a blast at home.

I yawned, it was already past midnight and all I could think of was sleep. Jin had told us that there would be two girls in each room however since there were twenty-five girls left, one room would have three girls. My feet had started to hurt so I had taken my heels off and I started to trudge over to my room. The servants in the castle had already taken our bags to our rooms thankfully, so I didn't have to lug them up the many flights of stairs. I was assigned to room six, so when I finally saw the big golden number six I let out a relieved sigh.

I opened the door and shut it quickly and sighed in relief, I threw my heels off in some random corner and fell onto the nearest bed, and before I knew it I had fallen asleep.

~ Time Skip ~

A pillow hit my face and I instantly got up. I huffed and grabbed the pillow and angrily looked around for who the culprit was. I noticed Eunha snickering in the corner and I turned to look at who she was pointing at. There stood Hyuna clad in Kumamon pajamas, and she had an innocent smile plastered on her face. I growled and heaved the pillow in her direction which smacked her right in the face.

Eunha giggled and jumped on the bed and hugged me "You really aren't a morning person Areum."

I rubbed my face trying to wake myself up since I was still a bit groggy "No I am not. Why'd you wake me up? I was having such a good dream."

Hyuna smirked and joined us on my bed "What is perhaps about Jimin?"

I blushed and smacked her thigh "No way! Uh, I was dreaming about the actor Min Yoongi, yeah Min Yoongi!"

Eunha gushed "Lucky! I'd love to have a dream about the gorgeous Min Yoongi. Ugh, he's so dreamy."

I giggled at Eunha fangirling, her eyes literally turned into hearts when I mentioned Min Yoongi. He was probably the most well-known actor throughout the kingdom, I mean his fanbase was massive. I think my mother even had a poster of him hidden in her closet.

"But back to my question, why did you wake me?" I asked seriously looking over at Hyuna

Hyuna jumped off my bed and headed over to her suitcase "Seokjin said that they were announcing the theme of the next round at breakfast, which starts pretty soon so we need to get ready. Now get your ass into the bathroom and change!"

~ Time Skip ~

I had thrown on a blue sweater and tucked it into my black jeans and Hyuna had decided to tie a bandana in my hair claiming I looked really good. After waiting for an eternity for Eunha to get ready we left the room and went in search of the dining hall.

The castle itself was humongous and since it was our first time here, we had gotten lost. Thankfully one of the maids quickly escorted us to the dining hall. I followed behind Hyuna and Eunha as they opened the doors to the dining room and saw all the other girls huddled around the far wall.

We quickly ran over to see what all the commotion was about. I craned my neck to see what everyone was looking at and saw a piece of paper stuck to the wall and on it read:

Theme:

Bulletproof Girl-Scouts.

Your Host,
