He glared at me with irritation. "Come inside!" ...And I did. He pointed to the stack of books on the floor. "Pick them up and arrange them the way they're supposed to."

With trembling hands, I did what he asked quickly. Fret in the way I moved, picking up the books into my arms and lap one by one only for them to fall back on the floor over and over. I was a mess, upset, and it was obvious. This wasn't the kind of first meeting I dreamed of.

The second prince was mean, and he was irritable. He had no clue who I am which made me resent it even more.

He scowled as he watched me made mistakes after mistakes and after a while, he grew frustrated and bent over, picking the books himself.

"Forgive me, I didn't mean to snarl at you the way I did. I'm not used to being distracted. No one ever walks in my office unless they have my permission. I don't even know how the guardsmen let you in." 

I wanted to say because unlike you, they recognized who I am. But I kept my mouth shut in fear of aggravating his anger. 

His voice took a lot gentler tone, I imagined he must've realized how upset I was and felt bad about it.

I said nothing.

When we're done, I rose up to my feet, couldn't wait to get out of this room. This man was so impolite to me that I couldn't wait to get away from him.

"I apologize, your highness. I didn't mean to distract you in your private office." I stepped back getting ready to leave when a sliver of sunlight struck highlighting my face. 

"Wait!" He murmured and I turned back to look at him.

"You're beautiful." He said breathlessly.

I would have blushed, but he was so mean and rude to me that his compliment lost its impact long ago.

"I need to go," I told him.

"Wait." A wave of panic rose in the tide of his voice. The prince was afraid to lose me. "What's your name, girl?" He asked quickly. 

"Jasmine, my name is Jasmine, your highness."

"My Jasmine?" He murmured hopeful.

"Hey! She already said she was sorry. What more do you want?!" I screamed loudly in his face. His face turned from angry to shocked. No one had ever yelled at him that way at school before. He narrowed his eyes at me."She ruined a very expensive shirt so she needs to be punished for it," he responded, his green eyes lit with hate and anger. "So?! You probably have a million other shirts just like it. You spoiled rich boys have no respect for others. You think you're better than everyone else. Well, let me tell you, you are the worst of the worst." I said. I couldn't believe what I had just said. I realized I had given myself a death sentence as the words flew out my mouth. Duke was quiet for a few moments then he finally replied. "You better watch what you say girly," he said as he brushed past my shoulder. His two buddies following him from behind.

Y/N pov: As usual, I was sitting in my room with tears in my eyes from seeing my husband in the arms of other women who were having fun and laughing with him. There are moments when I question what I did to merit my husband's severe treatment. I heard a loud thud from the door and opened it, causing my blood to run cold. He starts talking while keeping his gaze on my face. "You think you are the right person to slap Samantha?I do not recall granting you permission to beat up people in my palace." He looks at me icily with emotionless eyes. "I have the right to slap one of your concubines, of course. I am, after all, the queen of this palace and your wife. He chuckled while examining me from head to toe before saying those words that broke my heart into a million pieces and made me want to turn it into stone right then. "You are nothing more than the daughter of our rival, and if it were not for the palace and my people, I never would have married you in the first place.You are insignificant in comparison to the woman I adore and desired.I would not have married a woman like you if it were not for the throne." I rubbed the tears from my eyes, laughed harshly and sarcastically, and said "A woman like me? After spending the night with other women, who are you to say this? Unlike you, at least I put effort into this marriage.You only cause me sorrow and regret; you have never shown me any concern.You are not even deserving of the titles of king, spouse, or partner." As he spoke, his eyes were laser-like. "When your own parents did not even give a damn about you before sending you to me, why should I?" As he concluded his statement, he grinned. "So, Jeon Jungkook, let us get a divorce and call it quits on this marriage." He looked at me right away, and I could feel his surprise because, after three years of marriage, he never imagined that I would say this. ___________________________________________________ The book is currently being edited.

A twisted smile spread across his face as he leaned in closer, his hot, alcohol-laced breath over her. He pressed his nose to her neck, inhaling deeply before pulling back slightly to growl in her ear, "You can't run away anymore." he slurred, his voice a sinister whisper. His eyes bore into hers with a mix of anger and possessiveness that made her blood run cold. Her mind raced, desperately trying to think of a way to escape. "Let me go!" she cried, her voice trembling. She tried to pull away, but he only tightened his grip, his other hand moving to her waist to hold her closer. "You're mine," he growled, his lips curling into a cruel smile. "And no one gets to take what's mine." ____________________ "If you really want to stop me, tell me will you ever be able to love me?" She asked, her voice trembling despite the smile she forced. Hurt was evident in her eyes, knowing what his answer would be. He looked at her, his face a mask of turmoil. She was no one to him, and he , a fragile in a world full of chaos. Every day, she had been grateful just to be near him, to share his space, even if it meant living in the shadows. She had accepted that they were living a lie, but it had been a lie she could live with. His silence was a dagger to her already wounded heart. "I was never supposed to be in your life," she whispered, tears spilling over despite her efforts to hold them back. "But you found me, and you saved me. You've been my rock, my safe place. How can I just let you go now?"

You kept walking without looking back. Your shoulders were slightly shaking because you tried to hold your tears. Yoongi followed you quietly. You unconsciously walked too far from the gathering room. It wasn't the resort area anymore. His best guess was that you didn't even realize where you went. "Shut." You stumbled by your own feet. You were prepared to feel the ground and realized it wasn't coming. A pair of strong hands steadying you. "Yo.. yoongi?" You fluttered. You wiped your tears, "Why are you here?" "That will be my question." "He likes someone else.." You turned around and awkwardly hugged him. Yoongi hesitantly patted your back, you snorted on his shirt. "Why do things like this always happen to me?" You cried. "Because you are stupid." He answered. "I think he was in love with me." The boy treated you nicely. He was always around, who knows that he wants someone else. "That explains the stupid part.." You pouted and wiped your messy tears with his shirt, "Oh, God.." he sighed. "I'm done with all this relationship shit." Yoongi frowned to see the smeared mascara on your face. You looked awful. "Yeah, I'm sure after this you won't get any." You could see his bitter expression. "I'm crying.. why are you so mean ..." "Ck, bothersome." He mumbled as he wiped the mascara stain with his thumbs, he just made it even worse, "Stop crying already." Out of many people, you met him. He wasn't the first person for comfort.. but he was here..

Before I begin, I just want to say that this story does include some mature themes. I will also give out a warning a chapter prior to these scenes. Getting that out of the way, let's go onto the story description... *This book contains explicit content* *EXTRACT FROM THE BOOK* I stared at him, cooking and whistling, something that I could not do, or should I say, wasn't bothered to do. I decided to move away and to try and find an exit but I didn't even take one step back when I heard his voice. "Princess? Is that you?" I saw him raise his head before shooting his eyes onto me. The sudden gaze caused to heart to race while it froze my body as if I have turned into ice. I felt the fear engulf my body, eating me inside out. "You aren't scared of me... Are you?" he asked me, I sensed the envy in his voice. That mixed with his harsh tone caused a wave of goosebumps to course through my body. I wanted to begin by asking him where was I? Why was I here? Why was he here... I wanted to ask him, but I couldn't, the fear was just all too much for me. "Come on... Speak to me... Ask me..." he began. "Ask me 'why am I here' and all of that crap... Entertain me with your fear." I saw him slowly gripping a knife that was on the countertop, with his eyes still on mine. The sides of his mouth slowly began tilting upwards. All the bitterness and the cold, it was all so visible in his eyes. I looked at him in horror, noticing him as he took his first steps towards me. "Talk to me... Because this might be the only time you will ever be able to talk, " he said this sentence in such a calm tone, it caused me once again to shiver with goosebumps. "W-what do you mean...". Never in my life have I stuttered, until then.
