You immediately pulled out. "I am sorry. It's just I was scared", you mumbled. "Yeah. I understand", he muttered. You pulled out even before he could hold you. Both of you wanted to stay in each other's arms but something was stopping you both. "I think the people have already sensed about Taehyung's arrival.

We can't keep worrying about them. It's better to take him to the capital", you said. Jungkook nodded. "Jimin Hyung already sent a message to the Crown Prince. I hope they won't arrest him", he said.

"They will not. The generals àre receiving a huge backlash. So decided to revoke the order", you said. "They could have done that earlier", he sighed. "It's good. They need to know the public opinion and Taehyung's power. They are thinking that we are some joke", you said.

Jungkook nodded. "Where is Yuri? Did you see the Prince?" he asked. "She is with Taehyung. I came to meet you first", you said. Jungkook smiled. Both of you walked towards Taehyung's room silently. Jimin and Yuri were inside the room.

To your surprise, Mina was also there. You and Jungkook looked at each other. Yuri kept wiping her tears. "Thank you, Mina. Thank you for bringing him safely", she held her hands. Mina bowed at her. "Oh! Y/n", Jimin said. You glared at him.

"Y/n", Taehyung stood up. "Sit down. You need to rest", you made him sit and sat beside him on his bed. "Look at you. Acting all strong, while being weak", you brushed his hair. He smiled.

"Is everything fine?" he asked. You nodded. "Don't worry about that. I will take everything", you said. You looked at Mina. "Thank you, Mina", you said. "It's my duty, your Highness", she said.

"How come you are not even sick a little bit?" Yuri asked Jungkook. "Are you not happy that I am in good condition?" he asked. "It's not that but it's unfair", she pouted. You chuckled. Taehyung was amused to see the bond between Jungkook and Yuri.

"Y/n ah! The head minister sent me a message that it would be better if we all reached the palace as soon as possible", Jimin said. You looked at him, still emotionless. "I am sorry", he chuckled. "Don't be mad. It's all because of your brother. He was stubborn", he whined.

"I am mad at both of you. I am letting it pass just because he is sick", you said. "Ah! Jungkook ah! I feel like my head is splitting. I am sick", Jimin faked, making everyone burst into laughter. Jungkook just played along.

"You suck at acting", Mina said. "Not more than you", Jungkook said. You shifted your gaze at her. She went silent. Jungkook and Jimin just did something to cover up the uneasiness. Taehyung's gaze was fixed at her.

"We are going tomorrow", you said. He agreed. "Take rest", you patted his head. "Am I still a child in your eyes?" he asked. "Even though we are twins, I am still an older one. So better listen to me", you said. "Yes sister", he chuckled.

You went to a room to take a rest. You couldn't even think about Jungkook and the things that happened earlier between you both. There was always something to keep your mind busy. On the other hand, Jungkook lied down and smiled looking at the ceiling.

He couldn't take your eyes off his mind, how it was when you saw him. He placed his hand on his chest. It was almost evening. You were sitting on a platform and just admiring the sea. Your heart was not calm just like the crashing waves.

"Y/n", Taehyung sat beside you. "How are you feeling now?" you asked him. "I recovered completely", he smiled. "What's next?" he asked. "What else? Namjoon's coronation is next.

Before that, I don't know what kind of game Chang Mi is playing. I believe there is something more that happened in the past to her. Namjoon might know but he is not ready to share", you said. Taehyung nodded his head. "Then?" he asked you.

"Then?" you questioned back. "Shouldn't we strengthen our relationships with other smaller kingdoms for that?" he slightly bit his lips. You smiled. "We should do that. But I think most of the powerful kings are on our site including our grandfather and Yuri's father", you said.

"Y/n, about that", he scratched his eyebrows. "About Yuri, I am not sure", he was nervous. He was ready to listen to your tantrum. "Are you sure about Mina?" you asked. "Y/n, that's what I can't understand.

Yuri and Mina, I am confused", he said. "I have good memories with Yuri. Of course, she is sweet. Mina is different", he said. "I try to explain but-" "Do whatever you want to", you said.

You smiled genuinely. He was a bit taken aback. "I have no interest in your love life. All I want now is a strong leader for our country. Once Namjoon rightfully claims it, I will be done with my work", you stood up.

Taehyung was surprised. He never expected you to let go easily. Jungkook came in search of you and ended up hearing everything. You smiled at him while going back. He smiled at you. He was quite proud of you. You came to a few steps down from your pride.

"You were cool", he said. "I am worried about Yuri. How will I console her?" you asked him. In the meantime, Taehyung went in search of Mina. She was talking with Jimin about something. She was laughing at Jimin's jokes.

As Taehyung approached them, Jimin took his leave. Her smile disappeared completely. Once she used to smile brightly just by looking at him. ''Why do you keep running away from me?" he asked.

"That's my boundary, your Highness", she said."Mina, you have a special place in my heart", he said. "I am honoured, your Highness. You are a Prince whom we all love unconditionally. We would always support you", she said. "That's not what I mean", he said.

"Your Highness, I don't know what you are trying to say. I have no intention of keeping my hopes up or trying to get closer to you", she said. "I can't wait every day for you to come to me. I can't compete with other Princesses you would marry in the future. Don't tell me that you won't.

I love you. I love you so much but not in a way that I want to have you all to myself", she said. "Mina", he came close to her. "My feelings towards someone else keep going back and forth. Once I find, how they feel towards me, I will stay with him or go back", she said.

Before Taehyung could react, he heard a muffled sob. Yuri listened to everything. Taehyung closed his eyes. "Are you giving up on me?" he asked one last time to Mina. "I never intended to start.

I planned to love you by myself. I never expected anything in return. I will keep loving you as this country's Prince or even a future King of the island", she said and walked away. Yuri cried hard lying on the bed.

Once you went into the room, she cried more than before. "I am sorry", you whispered, pulling her into the hug. You hugged her while she kept sniffing. "Am I hard to love?" she asked you. "Yuri, it's not your fault. It's my fault. I should have known better", you wiped her tears.

"It's okay if he has many women in his life but it hurts when I realize that I was never one", she said. "He never said that '', you said. She shook her head. "He never saw me the way he saw her. He sees me as an annoying and clingy person", she said.

"It hurts' ', she couldn't hold her cry. For almost all her life, she kept hearing about him and her family discussing the possible wedding with him. Right from the moment, she saw him for the first time, no one ever caught her heart like that.

Little did you know, Taehyung was outside the room listening to everything. You asked her to rest a bit. You once again went back to the garden. Jimin sat behind you. "I heard everything that happened", he said. "What should I do now?" you asked. "What do you mean?" he asked.

"How will I convince the court that Taehyung likes Mina and he might even want to marry her", you said. "Princess", Jungkook came. "I heard something as well", he said. "Mina said to our Prince that she likes someone else and not interested in him that way", he said.

You and Jimin looked at each other. "You mean she rejected him", you asked. He nodded. "Where is Mina?" Jimin asked. Before Jungkook could answer he went. "Shouldn't he be meeting Taehyung?" you questioned.

Jungkook explained everything that Mina told him. You smiled. "She gave up because she didn't want to be an obstacle for him in his royal life. She didn't know that he would even throw away everything to the person he truly loves", you chuckled.

"Can you throw everything, Princess? This life and luxury for someone who is not a Prince?" Jungkook asked. You saw him deeply. "I can't, instead I will make them a Prince. That's how I am", you said, leaving Jungkook speechless.
