Third person's pov

As Vantae entered the palace with Jungkook cradled in his arms, the entire atmosphere seemed to crackle with tension and relief. Everyone Rushed towards him, their eyes wide with curiosity and concern, bombarding him with questions.

"Where did you find him, Vantae?"

"Is Jungkook alright?"

"What happened to him?"

Vantae's eyes blazed with a fierce intensity as he held Jungkook closer, protecting him from the prying eyes. 

"Call for the royal physician immediately," he declared, "I will explain everything later "

In the chambers, Vantae gently laid Jungkook on the bed, his hands still cradling him with the utmost care. His eyes never left Jungkook's face.

As Vantae gently laid Jungkook down on the bed, he could feel the heat radiating from his mate's body.

His heart clenched with worry as he brushed a strand of sweat-soaked hair away from Jungkook's forehead.

"Quickly, bring cold water and a damp cloth." 

The maid hurriedly scurried to fulfill his request, returning with a basin of chilled water and a soft cloth. Vantae took the cloth in his hands, soaking it in the cold water, and then gently wringing out the excess.

With the utmost care, Vantae placed the cool cloth on Jungkook's forehead, hoping to alleviate some of the fever's discomfort.

He leaned in closer, his warm breath brushing against Jungkook's skin, as he whispered soothing words.

"My love, I'm here," Vantae murmured, his voice a gentle balm.

After sometime......

Vantae carefully undid the clasps and ties of Jungkook's hanfu, his touch gentle and cautious. He wanted to make sure he didn't cause any discomfort to his unconscious mate.

Vantae chose a fresh, soft, and lightweight hanfu, one that would provide comfort and allow Jungkook's body to breathe.

Jungkook's body stirred slightly as Vantae adjusted the fabric, but he remained deep in his fever-induced slumber. Vantae couldn't help but brush a gentle kiss on Jungkook's forehead.

As the physician entered the room, Vantae and the rest of the family waited anxiously outside, the physician carefully examined Jungkook, checking his vitals, and all.

Time seemed to stretch on endlessly for Vantae and the others, they exchanged concerned glances, silently praying for positive news.

Finally, the physician emerged from the room, his expression a mix of surprise and excitement. Vantae's heart skipped a beat as he anxiously stepped forward to hear the doctor's report.

"Well?" 

The physician smiled warmly, his eyes shining with joy. "Congratulations," he said, his voice filled with happiness. "Luna is pregnant."

The words hung in the air for a moment, as everyone processed the joyful news. Vantae's eyes widened.

"Pregnant?" Vantae repeated, his voice tinged with disbelief.

The physician nodded, confirming the wonderful news.

Vantae's emotions surged like a tidal wave. Tears of overwhelming happiness welled up in his eyes, and a smile stretched across his face. He couldn't contain his joy and excitement any longer.

Without a second thought, Vantae enveloped everyone around him in tight, joyous hugs, his heart brimming with love and gratitude. He hugged Jin, Namjoon, Jimin, and Yoongi one by one, their faces mirroring his happiness as they exchanged tearful smiles.

Vantae's heart felt like it might burst with happiness, his love for Jungkook and their unborn child radiating from his very being.

He couldn't wait to share this moment with his Luna, to hold him close and tell him of the incredible gift they had been blessed with.

Jin, Namjoon, Jimin, and Yoongi exchanged stunned glances before their faces broke into smiles of pure joy. Tears of happiness welled in Jimin's eyes, and Jin wrapped his arms around his son, pulling him into a tight embrace.

"Congratulations, my son," Jin said, his voice filled with pride and love. "You're going to be a father."

The entire kingdom would soon know of the wonderful news, and the joy would resonate throughout the lands.

"However, I must also inform you that Jungkook is quite weak at the moment."

Vantae's heart clenched with concern, and he nodded, his eyes never leaving the physician's face.

"First and foremost, Jungkook needs plenty of rest and proper nourishment,"the physician explained. "His body is going through significant changes, and it's essential that he takes it easy to preserve his strength."

Vantae nodded, absorbing every word, already making mental notes of how he would ensure Jungkook received the best care possible. His Luna's well-being was his top priority, and he would spare no effort to make sure he was taken care of.

"Keep him hydrated," the physician continued, "and make sure he eats nutritious meals to support the growing life inside him."

"Of course, doctor," Vantae replied.

As the physician bid farewell and the rest of the family extended their warmest congratulations to Vantae, he made his way back to the room where Jungkook lay, still unconscious.

With a deep breath, Vantae shifted back into Taehyung,

Taehyung's heart still racing with the joy of the news. But as he looked at Jungkook, his excitement tempered, replaced with a tender worry for his Luna's well-being.

Taehyung's eyes shimmered with emotion as he placed another kiss on Jungkook's cheek, feeling the warmth of his skin beneath his lips. He tenderly cupped Jungkook's face in his hands, his thumb brushing against Jungkook's cheekbone.

"We're going to be parents," Taehyung repeated softly, as if affirming the incredible reality that lay ahead.

Taehyung's voice was filled with love as he leaned down and pressed a gentle kiss to Jungkook's slightly swollen belly. 

"My little one," Taehyung whispered to the tiny being, his voice a hushed lullaby, " We c-can't wait to meet you, to hold you in our arms and shower you with all the love we have."

Taehyung shifted his head, resting it gently on Jungkook's womb, as if trying to connect with the precious life within.

He spoke softly, sharing his dreams and hopes for their future as a family, promising to be the best father he could be.

After an hour......

Jungkook's eyes fluttered open, and Taehyung's heart soared with relief. He immediately moved closer, offering a tender hand to help Jungkook sit up.

But as Jungkook's tear-filled eyes met Taehyung's, his emotions overwhelmed him, and he clung to his alpha with all his might, seeking solace and safety.

"It's alright, my love," Taehyung whispered gently, his arms wrapping protectively around Jungkook. "You're safe now. Arick can't hurt you anymore. I'm here, and I'll always protect you."

Jungkook's breaths were shaky as he continued to cry, "H-He to-ouch-hed me, T-Taeh-hyung," he choked out, "I fe-ee-el d-dir-rty "

Taehyung's heart ached for his mate, his own tears threatening to spill. He held Jungkook even closer, his touch soothing and reassuring. "You are not dirty, Jungkook," he said firmly, "You are pure, and you are mine, I will always love you no matter what."

Taehyung's words were like a lifeline to Jungkook.

Taehyung wiped away his tears, pressing soft kisses to his forehead, cheeks, and lips, pouring all his love into each gesture.

"Jungkook, breathe," Taehyung whispered urgently, his voice filled with love and desperation. "Try to take deep breaths, my love. I'm here with you. You're safe."

Taehyung's thumbs brushed away the tears on Jungkook's cheeks as he tried to guide his mate in calming breaths.

Despite his best efforts to calm him down, Jungkook's distress seemed to intensify, and the fear in his eyes was heartbreaking.

He could feel Jungkook's grip on his hand weakening.

His heart ached as he listened to his mate's broken and uneven words. Each mention of Arick's name only deepened Taehyung's anger and sorrow for what Jungkook had endured.

He gently brushed the hair away from Jungkook's forehead, trying to calm him down, but it seemed that the traumatic memories were haunting him.

Shh, my love," Taehyung whispered soothingly, "I'm here with you, and I won't let anyone hurt you ever again. You're safe now, Jungkook. I promise."

As Jungkook continued to mumble about the painful incident, Taehyung's concern grew exponentially.

"Quickly! Bring the physician!" Taehyung shoued out as he saw Jungkook closing his eyes in his amrs,
