Dark Devotion | Jikook | Ongoing
They loved each other so deeply that even time and death could not separate them. Their souls were tied by a bond that neither fate nor centuries could break. Jeon Jungkook was a warrior of warriors, a hero known for his strength and courage in 1200 AD. No one could face him in battle for more than a minute. He led thousands of soldiers with unmatched skill and often won wars single-handedly. His name was feared across kingdoms, his bravery unmatched. But when the mighty Turk army - the strongest of that era - challenged him, Jungkook faced an impossible choice. His empire was weakened by a deadly pandemic, and even his unmatched power couldn't save it. That was when the devil himself appeared, offering Jungkook help in exchange for his soul. Desperate to protect his people and his love, Jungkook accepted the deal. The devil gave him power beyond imagination, and Jungkook fought the Turk army alone, crushing them with strength no mortal had ever seen. But victory came with a cruel cost - in the chaos of war, he lost the love of his life, his beautiful mate, his omega, Jimin. Jungkook's world shattered. Though centuries passed, his heart never healed. The fire of love continued to burn inside him, waiting for the day they would meet again. Six hundred years later, in 1800 AD, destiny gives Jungkook another chance. He finds Jimin once more - the same soul, the same love, reborn. But will his Dark Devotion, fulfill this time? Or will history repeat itself and tear them apart once again? ⚠️Inspired by the movie Dracula: Untold. Only a few scenes will be inspired by or adapted from the movie, not the entire book.
