Not proof read!!

The palaquin reached the palace. Yunjae helped you get down, raising the umbrella above the two quickly. Both of you made your way to the entrance.

"Move." You shout at the guards and try to pace in with your big belly. Entering the palace grounds and briskly walking towards the palace harem chambers. The rain pour was hard, drenching you. Yunjae brought the umbrella for you but you could care less. The anxiety of lossing your title to her again only had it added to the burning fire deep inside you.

Your hands sweating as you clutch onto your belly, fear and despise evident in your expression. If you ever to give a chance, not thinking twice you could assign an assassin for her.

Your hatred towards her was just as the lightening bolt, dangerous enough to burn anyone who is struck with. Little did you know that you had a surprise.

Meanwhile in the queen mother's chamber, the old lady quietly read some journals, handling the state affairs. "Your majesty, Miss Y/n has arrived." A maid bowed to her. She paused her actions with a small evil smile playing on her lips. "What about the other?" She asked as she closed the book. Just then another maid rushed in, bowing to her, "your majesty, Consort Hayun has arrived and is on the way to throne chamber."

"Wonderful. Things are going as planned." Her hands clasped with joy. "Prepare rooms for both of them. Make their stay comfortable." She commanded as she stood up to head out. "When will his majesty arrive?" Her joyous yet stern voice asked them. 

"Tomorrow noon, your majesty." One replied.

On the other side, Consort Hayun walked towards the throne chamber. "Your highness, why would you come to the royal palace to meet that crazy witch?" Kirin; her personal maid asked for the last time getting disturbed to the fact of setting off to meet you after receiving a note from you saying that you wanted to sort things out. Hayun kept her calm posture, as she gave the umbrella to Kirin. Afterall the bugging made her sigh to know how impatient Kirin was.

"Kirin.." she took a breath in, "Y/n has hurt me...... always but it does not link to the fact that I must return it with rage. I follow Lord Buddha and so I shall only show kindness to my enemy." She smiled to Kirin to which she rolled her eyes internally. "But -" she was interrupted by Hayun. "She is pregnant with my lord's child which means her child is mine as well." She smiled again looking at the ground as she walked, happy and excited to meet her child. This was a thunder shock to Kirin. "No!!" She gasped out loud catching Hayun's attention. Her wide eyes gapped at her mistress. "No. You must have a child of your own with his majesty and not accept that wretched woman's child. Who knows if that child will have the same manners." She shook her head not wanting her master take care of that child.

Hayun drew a expressionless face to her. "Any child of my lord with anyone is my child. That is what i truly believe. As far my knowledge is right, my lord will not look up to me as he does to Y/n but it does not bother me anymore. His happiness is my happiness, his sorrow is my sorrow. As his honourable and recognised first wife, he is my priority and that is a true wife's duty." Hayun replied as they walked through the corridor heading to the throne chamber to meet his highness. At that moment Kirin felt to shake Hayun like she used to do in their childhood to knock some sense to her thoughts but she pouted wondering what they have to face now. The last incident did not leave her mind, all she knew was that the accusation was pinned by you but never had anything to prove Hayun's innocence. It was a set up drama. She was getting more worried for today's drama and how would it end.

As they were nearing the chamber, they saw a wet figure paddling to them in a hurry but was slow. "Is that Y/n?" Hayun mumbled. You walked as fast as you could when you saw Hayun the other side. But your steps were pretty slow because of your big belly and drenched clothes. Yunjae was getting worried, your drenched self would cause you catch a cold which will be dangerous at the last stages of pregnancy especially.

The only aim for you now was to question Hayun based on the small riddle. As you near her, your voice rose "Consort Hayun!" which resonated in the palace. Hayun was taken aback for a while. "What do you want?!" You shouted again, eyes wide glaring at her as you breath in and out like a furious dragon. Hayun gave a quzzicial expression not capturing the situation. "All I want is to stay with Jungkook. Don't blame me for you getting dragged between us." You huffed. "Y/n, calm down. We can discuss your matter after you have dried your drenched self. It is not good for your health especially in the last stages. It is bad for the child." She took a step to give you a hand. "Yes, miss Y/n." Yunjae took a step forward to help you.

But you smacked away Hayun's approaching hand, eyes still glaring at her. Kirin's eyes shot you a glare but you could care less of the servant girl. "Since when have you begun to concern about my child." You scoffed. She felt hurt but didn't let it out. "Y/n please." She begged getting more worried. Looking at how she was faking to be nice to you made even more angry. "To hell with your behaviour consort Hayun! Look at you. You are worried for this child?!" Your voice mocked her. "The child that you were so desperate to kill." You laughed at her. "Wow!" You support your back with your hands. You looked at the floor scoffing. "I am very sure you must have planned another way to kill us. Now that you are acting even more sweet and concerned to me, do you think I am going to accept your hospitality?!" You glared at her.

"How dare you mock me with your letter?" Yunjae held you as you almost lost your balance. "Enough!" A familar voice rumbled. "Any moment you are ready to claw on my daughter." Queen mother walked to both of you with vexed face.

Consort Hayun bowed to her while you stood there with your back facing her. "Y/n, remember you are going to be a mother. Act to the accord rather than fighting with Hayun like you are still young." She began to taunt you. "Royalties do not fight like street dogs. Your behaviour is enough to prove anyone where you come from. How come his majesty adore your vulger behaviour." She pulled a disgusted expression.

You rolled your eyes. "Do I, the consort carrying the king's child bear humiliation from you, queen mother?" You question. "I do not intend to talk any futher with you." She beckoned her hand to you to move away. "Tomorrow his majesty is arriving from a tour. I want both of you to welcome him. Your rooms are prepared, stay for the night." She turned with her regular prideful manner heading to the throne chamber. But her tracks stopped, "It is better for you dry yourself Y/n." She peered over her shoulders. "Or else do not. It will actually spare my hands from killing that filthy thing that you are carrying in your womb." She scoffed before disappearing from your sight.

"Y/n, do not -" Hayun was interrupted by you, feeling your emotions errupt from your aura and how your head weighed down. "Do not. I know none of you here has ever accepted me. I am not getting any attention from Jungkook which gives both of you the time to hunt me as much as you like. But not this child. If anything happens to him, I will not hesitate to agonize each one of you." Your trembling self made it clear to Hayun that no one could hurt the child; a reflex to protect one's child.

"Y/n. Stay for the night. I promise you I will not harm you through anything. Your maid can look after you through everything, just do not stand here in the cold. Warm your body." Everything around was spinning, a uneasy feeling running all over your body. Even so you took a glance at her, she looked fretted. "You-" even before you could complete your body slumped onto Yunjae. "Y/n!" Hayun shouted rushing to you. "Miss Y/n!" Yunjae cried out, tapping your face.

"Hurry! Take her to the chamber." Hayun shouted at the guards near and had the Queen mother's maids lead the way. Hayun took your right hand and began to rub to keep the cold hand warm, so did Yunjae. But on the way Hayun was pulled aside by Kirin. "What are you doing your highness?" She questioned her mistress's actions. "Kirin! Now is not the time for another justification. She is in danger. If anything happens to her and her child, I can never forgive myself." Her voice threatened Kirin. She rushed to catch up with you.
