"Do you want to fall behind? OMG!!!!!
“You bastard!!!!!!!!!!!!”
"I didn't do anything."
"Why are there two of you!!!!!!!
It's stuckeeeek!!!!!!!"
"Because Ms. Kim Yeo-ju was injured,
"I couldn't help it."
What? You're hurt? At Jungkook's words, Yoongi suddenly approached me with a serious expression, grabbed my hand, and stared at me intently. Honestly, Jungkook said he was glad he hadn't done this in front of Yoongi, so I swallowed hard, wondering if he was really reacting to human blood. However, contrary to my worries, nothing happened. Yoongi's expression only grew more serious.
"It's okay. Just a little
"It's just a vein."
"What should I do to make it bleed...
be careful."
"··· yes."
I looked around, embarrassed, and saw that Jeongguk was already gone. When did he leave? I sighed as I saw the slightly open, already broken door. Jeongguk will fix it again... I wondered when he'd break it again.
Yoon-gi went to the kitchen and examined the remaining vegetable scraps. He looked at me, holding two knives in each hand. I nodded, confirming that it was indeed the wound. Yoon-gi cleaned the vegetables for me. When I told him to step forward and do it, Yoon-gi asked what I was doing when I was injured and sat me down on the sofa.
"Haven't you eaten yet?"
"Yes, not yet... It happened
Not long after."
"Don't cook from now on.
I'm so scared."
What?! Dododo ran over and lightly slapped Yoongi. Yoongi, with a look of no pain, held the area he'd been hit and groaned, "Ah ...
"Lady, wake up."
"Just a little... really just a little...
"Just five more minutes, Yoongi..."
"If you do it for me, I'll give you 10 more minutes."
"······."
"Quick."
"··· Mr. Yoongi."
"wake up."
I couldn't bring myself to call him "oppa," so I put him on. Yoongi, perhaps upset, figured I wouldn't even have time to lie down, so he picked me up and carried me to the living room. "Sigh." I automatically got scared. Could he be trying to throw me on my back? But contrary to my worries, Yoongi gently sat me down on the sofa.
"Why, why? Scary."
"The two of us have something important to do."
"What is it...?"
He seemed rather serious. I felt compelled to listen carefully, so I opened my sleepy eyes wide and looked at Yoongi.
"You are not yet fully my bride
It's not official because it's not done
"I have to go make a presentation."
"What does that mean?"
"So, to put it simply, it's a marriage registration."
Wow, everyone, congratulations! Kim Yeo-ju is going to file for marriage to a man she met at the tender age of twenty-five, without even her parents knowing! She looked dumbfounded and shook her head slightly in disbelief, but Yoon-ki ignored her and told her to hurry up and get ready so she could wash up and get dressed.
"No, you can just be my bride!" Wasn't that the end of it? This was so sudden. I went into the bathroom to wash up. I was dumbfounded. And then, all of a sudden, I regretted it. Why did I say I wanted to be a bride then, and then create this mess? Ever since I was young, I'd been determined to think things through carefully, whether it was dating or marriage, but I never imagined that would be completely shattered.
"I know. You
"It's confusing right now."
"······."
"If you don't like it, kill me.
And meet a better person."
He said those words so earnestly and sincerely that I couldn't help it. I figured I'd be free someday, so I got in the car. This time, I asked if Jungkook wasn't coming with me, and Yoongi grumbled jealously. "This is a fun way to tease."
I couldn't see where I was going because I was dozing off for a moment. But I could tell from the atmosphere that this wasn't an ordinary place. Yoongi shook me gently, and I looked outside in a half-asleep state. The people passing by had a similar aura to Yoongi's. While I was wondering, a thought struck me: Ah, they weren't human.
"scared?"
"··· A little bit."
"Don't worry, nothing will happen.
Because I will protect you."
As I got out of the car, a building with a castle-like atmosphere came into view in the distance. I figured they might be registering their marriage there. I resolved to hold onto Yoongi's hand until we got there. Of course, Yoongi didn't seem to have any intention of letting go. Judging by his grim expression, I had a feeling something was about to happen.
There were no other cars passing by here besides us. It felt like we'd entered another world. Or was it really another world? Perhaps that's why the vampires passing by whispered to me and Yoongi. Yoongi tried not to pay attention. The more vampires we went to, the more intense the whispering became. Some even laughed or spoke without even noticing.
"Jeon Jungkook's words were true, up to here
If you look at what you've come across alive, it's usually
"I don't think it's human."
"How long will it take? I'll explain the procedure later.
"I vote for "definitely kill by stepping on it."
"I see. What's going on? It's Min Yoongi, right?"
I was feeling bad and tried to go to them to say something, but Yoongi stopped me.
"But this isn't it."
"Hold on, I'm okay, heroine."
"······."
Seeing him calmly try to soothe me made me even angrier, and I clenched my fist. Yoongi lightly patted my shoulder. "Yes, they weren't worth dealing with anymore." With a firm resolve, I continued on my way.
As I walked, enduring the whispers, I found myself in front of the castle. But it seemed like a grand building, a place to register a marriage. Thinking it might be some kind of provincial government building, I followed Yoon-gi inside. There was a gatekeeper at the large gate, but he let me in easily after seeing Yoon-gi's face. Something felt off...?
The interior felt truly ancient. Climbing the stairs to the second floor, I came upon a large room. Inside, a woman of high status sat, her chin resting on a large, high chair.
"Have you checked now? I'm
"It's always been sincere for a year."
"At best, I can only watch from afar
Because it was just that. Now the bride
"How can I trust you then?"
"···Your Majesty, I
"Are you that incapable of believing?"
"Even knowing that, you still do this
What is the reason for doing it?
"This is already the fifth time."
What on earth is this...? I cautiously watched Yoongi, who was trembling. What had happened in the past? What did the fifth word mean? I was filled with curiosity. I wondered why the vampires here were giving Yoongi such a negative gaze. Suddenly, Jungkook's words came to mind. He had said things like, "You never know when things might change."
"I can replace that child.
Just give up on the idea.
Then let me think about it too."
"I'm going to kill you this time too
"I see you're thinking about it."
"Then right here, right now
Prove it. You
So that you can see how sincere I am."
The Empress Dowager pointed at me with her chin. Then, one of the guards lifted my arm and cut it with a sword. Blood immediately flowed from the wound. The sword was held directly in front of Yun-gi's eyes. Yun-gi's pupils began to turn red. Ah... no... In the end, Yun-gi ended up picking up the sword.
"Come on, Yoongi.
Are we going to get beat up by these guys again?"
"······."
"No matter what I do to Yoongi
It doesn't matter. You said you loved me."
"······."
"··· Mr. Yoongi···. Please···."
"··· You are not Yuna."
Yeon-ah...? Without even a moment to think, Yoon-ki held the knife to my throat. Tears flowed incessantly. I closed my eyes tightly, wondering if this was the end. The Empress Dowager merely chuckled, saying she knew it.
I'm back after being away for over half a year hehe..
