The Favoured Servant | VKook

In 1721, the Joseon palace was a place of silence, obedience, and absolute rule. King Taehyung had mastered all three. His throne was secure, his marriage political, his heart sealed shut.

Then he noticed a servant who should have meant nothing.

Jungkook moved quietly through the palace halls, unseen by most - but once seen by the king, impossible to forget. One look became scrutiny. Scrutiny became temptation. And temptation became a threat.

A king cannot love a servant.

As shadows lengthen and whispers coil through the court, a single forbidden connection begins to unsettle the throne itself. In a world where desire is treason, and love is punishment, one mistake could cost a kingdom - or a life.
