《The Retribution Contract》46.
Advertisement
"What is this hyung?" Jungkook questioned looking at the older with his confused doe eyes. "A will." Ji-ung informed. "Tae was scared that he might not make it through the baby's delivery process. His heart condition couldn't be trusted. So he wrote and legalised this will before Haneul's birth. He wanted to make sure that Han-Gyoel does not get the thing for which he destroyed so many lives. He wanted to make sure that you and the others were safe from his clutches. This will states that after him all his property will be yours."
Hearing him Jungkook looked towards the floor. "He always thought about me. Didn't he?" His voice was low and full of emotions. He missed Taehyung so much. He so badly wanted to embrace him and take in his addicting scent. "Yes he did. This is why he also wrote you a letter." Ji-ung said handing him a smaller envelope. "I'll look into the property transfer and you can go now Jungkook. Empty up your mind and read this letter. It might be the cure to your pains or a way to find that cure."
The ravenette looked at the letter in his hand intently and nodded. Mouthing a small 'thank you' he quickly walked out of the cabin. A few minutes later he was inside his car all alone. With shaking hands and glassy eyes he opened the envelope. Gently he took out the letter and started reading the message his love had left for him.
Hey Kook!
If you're reading this then I'm definitely not there with you anymore. (Oh my god. Writing a letter is really awkward Kook). It's just how things sadly turned out to be because if I was given a choice then I would have stuck to you for eternity.

When I was on the verge of losing myself you miraculously came to me with that book in your hand. That meeting was so random but after that my life just got better and better. The love you gave me was priceless and eternal. The way you held me. The way you looked at me. Everything filled me up with a new warmth of compassion. You were the missing piece of my soul and I was lucky enough to find it.
Our love has gone through so much. So many misunderstandings. So many problems but it never faded. We both know it. Our minds might have had some other thoughts but our hearts always knew the reality. We were just too dumb and adamant to listen to it. But it's okay because we are humans after all. Mortals that make mistakes all the time.
Our time together might have come to an end now but our love is eternal. I might not be with you in person but I'll always be there with you in your heart. Losing someone is not easy. I know that Kook. We both know it. It makes you feel empty. It makes you feel as if you have no happiness left in your life.
But is it fair Kook? Associating our happiness and our entire life to that feeling of despair? No it's not. Happiness shouldn't be stereotyped. It's a beautiful feeling that can come in the most unexpected way. It's already there around you. All you have to do is open your eyes and identify it. It might be difficult in the beginning. It's not easy to come out of your sorrows but you'll definitely be able to do it. I trust you Kook.
And as far as I am concerned, I have so much to apologize for. Sorry for not being with you. Sorry for giving you pain. Sorry for not being able to embrace you and wipe your tears. Sorry for every bad decision I took but it was our fate. Something that we couldn't control.

But was it sad? Nah! Not even a single percent. We might have had some sad moments in our life but just think about it Kook. Think about all those amusement park dates. Think about all those nights together, those celebrations we had and the happiness we felt. Think about the laughs, tears and smiles we had together. All those beautiful memories are so much more than those few bad days.
It's okay to cry for sometime. It's okay to feel sad but don't dwell on it. Don't let me be a painful memory in your life. Instead celebrate me. Let the memories we created together warm your insides and make you feel small tingles of happiness. Remember me as a beautiful chapter of your life. A chapter that might be over now but will always be a beautiful memory to you. A chapter that doesn't make you weak but stronger instead.
You will do that for me. Right? I have full faith in you. You are my Jungkook and you can do anything.
Always remember this: I will never stop loving you.
Bye love.
Jungkook leaned back on the car seat with tears flowing freely from his eyes. A sudden warmth had spread through his body. Those words felt like a warm hug from Taehyung. Those words gave him a sudden sense of relief.
It was as if his heart had been waiting for those words of comfort. And Jungkook would never be able to forget that feeling. Not now and not even in the future.
The feeling that everything will be alright.

The Exiled Villainess Returns
(Please heed the warnings above before reading) Reborn into the beautiful but deadly world of Ethetia, she comes to a sudden awareness that she is now Livia Katrina Valentine, a character of a game of a reverse harem she once played on Earth called Aster Academy: The Feuding Houses. But this revelation comes a bit too late. You see, Livia wasn't just anyone. She was not given the anonymity of being a background character, or even the blessing of being the heroine. Instead, she has bestowed the role of being the atrocious villainess. And that is exactly what she had been. As a result, Livia triggers her own death flag event at her debutante. Her memories of her past life have the grace to come only minutes before she is accused of poisoning the heroine, Amelia. But all is not helpless. Via last-minute intervention, Livia successfully manages to avoid having her head decapitated. Being exiled was a small price to pay for retaining a pulse. Plus, at least this way, Livia can finally start to live her life, to become more than just a cruel folly. Her exile should have been a new but unusual beginning to her story. But pitiless reality comes knocking. Ethetia had once only been a background setting in a game. A pretty and still picture that mostly went disregarded as the even prettier characters on the screen unloaded their dialogue, but now, it was Livia's world. As real and wonderous as planet Earth once had been, filled with small creatures with their own wills, ambitions, and needs. Such one creature decides that exile was not enough of a penalty. That Livia, the bullish and jealous tormentor of the heroine, deserves a fate more befitting of her past deeds. One worst than death. Livia's fate is ripped out of her hands. She is forced into a collar, sold to an empire rotten with greed, and placed inside a harem where she is expected to wither and die from the inside out. But Livia refuses to be forgotten. Burning with a deep rage against those who only wish to see her fall into her own grave, Livia makes a twisted promise to herself. A promise that pushes her through the darkest moments of her life and brings to light a newfound power rooted deep inside her. So keen to discard her as the villain she has once been, the little creatures in their own ignorance brought forth something they could never dream to fathom. A beacon of darkness.
