{ LOVE IMPOSSIBLE }

Jimin hugged him back tightly, inhaling his fresh citrus scent at every breath.

He was literally drowning in it as he continued staying in his arms for what seems like forever. He never wanted to leave.

They stayed like that for long before Jungkook was able to break it, then he held his face again.

“Promise me you won’t cry anymore” he said softly, and Jimin smiled.

“I promise” he said, and Jungkook smiled again, his lips forming a thin line in the process.

His smile is pretty.

“It’s the first time I’m seeing you smile, and I love it” Jimin whispered, still holding him.

“Really?” He smiled again.

“Yes, can you keep smiling like this anytime we’re together?” He asked, and Jungkook creased his brows knowingly before replying.

“Sure, granted” he said, and Jimin hugged him again.

“Wanna take your bath?” He asked, breaking the hug gently.

“I want to bath with you” Jimin replied.

“I already took my bath” Jungkook replied, and his eyes went down.

“Oh….” Jimin said slowly, and Jungkook held up his face.

“But I’ll grant your request anyways” he said, and Jimin smiled before yanking off his pink robe right in front of him.

He was wearing just a transparent garment Jungkook suddenly lifted him off the ground, and Jimin gasped sharply.

“Kookie!….

“Shhh” he replied, and Jimin smiled as he took him into the bathroom.

It’s more like Jungkook bathed him, and as he scrubbed his back softly with the tender sponge, he started counting his scars.

They’re in every space on his back. Just uncountable.

He tried to imagining the pains Jimin went through while getting the scars and marks, and his anger started growing, so much that he stopped imagining.

How could his mate be used like an object? Treated like trash and tortured like an animal???

His eyes almost flashed gold, but he quickly closed it and stopped scrubbing.

“Kookie” Jimin called when he couldn’t feel his movements again, and that was when Jungkook opened his eyes.

He hugged Jimin from behind, resting his arms on his chest.

“Are you ok?” Jimin asked slowly, rubbing his arms.

“Sorry I didn’t come for you earlier, sorry for the ten years of suffering, I feel so guilty” he whispered, and Jimin blinked.

“It is not your fault, please stop blaming yourself” he replied, and Jungkook opened his eyes, then he kissed his hair before continuing the scrub.

They were done in the next twenty minutes, so he carried him out of the bathroom just the way he carried him in.

He dropped him on the bed after wiping water off his body, then he got a lotion which he started rubbing on his skin.

“What’s it’s work?” Jimin asked.

“It’ll clear the spots and marks in a week” he replied, and Jimin eyes widened.

“Really?”

“Sure” he replied and resumed rubbing.

When he was done, he got a transparent undergarment from his wardrobe, slitted on each sides.

It’s colour red. He put it on and let down his hair, then Jungkook got the same and put it on too.

They climbed the bed at the same time, and while he sat up, Jimin sat between his legs and balled himself on his chest like a puppy.

“You’re so warm” he said.

“You too” Jungkook replied.

Jimin looked up at him, and Jungkook kissed his eyes.

“What do you like?” He asked.

“Painting and drawing, then horror novels” Jimin replied.

“Horror?” He said, and Jimin nodded.

Almost immediately, over ten horror novels from the library appeared on the bed, and Jimin eyes widened.

“Whoa!”

Jungkook picked the first one he could reach, then he read out the title.

DEATH’S VENOM

“Should I read it for you?” He asked, and Jimin nodded.

“Once upon a time….” Jungkook started, and he cuddled closer to his chest.

He began reading fluently, and it was so interesting that they almost finished it, but maybe tiredness from the tears he shed made him sleep off early.

Jungkook was reading one of the last few pages when he slept off.

He stopped reading and looked at him, then he stopped and dropped the book.

He made him lay comfortably on his chest, then he covered them as their body warmth circulated.

“Whoever tries to hurt you from now on will die like a dog….” He muttered, closing his eyes.

Yoongi has been sitting under a tangerine tree since he arrived there in the afternoon, he hasn’t moved an inch, and luckily he got the solitude he wanted, no one came in.

Hoseok’s words earlier got to him even when he tried not to let it. It hit him hard.

He can fight against any other insult, but not against the one involving his bald middle hair.

Since Lin slashed him with the sword right there, he has been hairless on that spot.

He fell into coma for three years after the slash, and he survived miraculously.

When he remembered that fateful day, he started crying again.

“I hate you so much Lin, I hate you!!” he muttered hurtfully, and he suddenly felt a lump in his throat.

He grabbed the throat tightly, and blood escaped his two ears.

“What’s this?” He mumbled, touching the blood with his fingers.

“Is it because I cried?” He said again and quickly wiped the blood, then he felt a presence behind.

He quickly looked up, and he sniffed when he saw it’s Namjoon.

“I’ve been looking everywhere for you, had no idea you’d be here” he said, sitting beside him.

“Go away, else I’ll bully you again” he said, and Namjoon smiled.

“You can go ahead and kick me like you always do, I’m used to it” he said, and Yoongi looked at him.

“You’re so annoying” he said, and  Namjoon smiled again.

Yoongi felt his heart beat fast again.

“Stop smiling!” Yoongi yelled.

“Don’t let others words get to you, and don’t let the past affect your presence, live your life the way you want, you own it” Namjoon said calmly, and Yoongi looked at him.

“You’re Yoongi, the son of Jeon Jungkook, not Lin, you’re different from Lin so stop being a villain, stop arguing with your father at every chance, stop hurting others Yoongi, but you can hurt me. like I said… I’m used to it” Namjoon continued, and Yoongi kept staring hard at him.

“I think I should leave you now, before you start kicking me again” he said and made to stand, but Yoongi suddenly held his arm, stopping him.

He interlocked their fingers and looked him in the eye.

Namjoon sat back and patted his shoulder with his other hand, then Yoongi placed his head on it.

Hyunjin is still out, so only Rose is in the room.

She’s sitting on the bed, and when she dipped her hand into the drawer beside the bed, she brought out the book she vomited.

VOLUME 2 was written boldly in front of it, and she opened the first page.

Though she can’t see, but she has read the book before she went blind.

The first few pages contains the pictures of the story owners, then the next page continues the story.

Circle gave birth after labouring for twenty nights and days, she had two baby boys…. Non-identical twins.

Kangmin appeared immediately the babies were given birth to, but unfortunately, Circle has passed her evil powers to one of the twins.

“I know this is my end, but even if you kill me now, one of my babies will do more harm than I did! He’ll be the death of many humans and supernatural beings! He’ll wreck havoc! He’ll be Nimon! god of Destruction!” Circle shouted happily.

That was her last words before Kangmin sliced her head off, then he fed her body to the wild vultures and left with the two babies.

“Mother” Hyunjin came in, and Rose quickly hid the book.

“You aren’t asleep yet?” He asked, and she smiled.

“Was waiting for you”

“I’m not sleeping yet, so you should sleep, ok?” He replied, and she smiled again as he put her to bed, then he covered her.

“Did you fight with Felix? He hasn’t been coming around” she said.

“We’re fine, he has just been busy” he replied.

“Don’t roam for too long, it’s too dangerous alone in the palace” she said, and he nodded before leaving the room.

He went to the silent training ground and found a wooden sword from one of the rookie trainees.

He picked it and started swordfight, but he failed woefully because he fell immediately.

“Ouch!” He whimpered.

“That’s not how to do it” Felix’s voice said in front of him, and he quickly stood to see him standing there, staring at him.

He turned back and started leaving quickly, but Felix rushed after him and blocked him.

“Felix…”

He interrupted with an hug, and Hyunjin eyes widened a bit.

“I’m never gonna let you go tonight, never” Felix said.

He forcefully unlocked his fingers from himself and started leaving, but Felix hugged him from behind.

“I don’t want to die, please leave me alone” he whispered.

“I love you” Felix replied.

“Felix please….”

“I love you…I love you crazily, Hyunjin” he interrupted, and Hyunjin’s eyes suddenly calmed.

Hyunjin gently removed his arms from himself and faced him, then before Felix could get it, he slammed his lips on him, shocking Felix to the core.

Felix was quick to hold him tight and respond, his lips moving in sync with his own.

The kiss was fast and rough, but sweet and affectionate as they kept devouring their lips on the spot.

When he finally broke it slowly, Felix couldn’t blink as he stared deeply into his eyes.

A gentle breeze was blowing, transporting the flowers from the peach tree to them.

“I love you too” he said, and Felix eyes brightened.

“But….” He said, and Felix held his face.

“Tell me what’s wrong, please Hyunjin” he said.

“I was threatened” he said.

“What!”

                               †

Jisung and Felix’s room are just beside each other in the warriors chamber.

After Hyunjin told him everything, he came back to his room to get his sword since he left it in, but he heard the sounds of Jisung’s cries as he was heading out.

He entered his room curiously and was shocked to see it’s really him.

“Jisung!” He rushed to him, but Jisung stood and stepped back from him.

“Don’t pretend like you care about me when it’s obvious you don’t” he said.

“What are you talking about?”

“I’m like an outcast here, no one listens to me or talks to me, no one wants me, Minho only looks at you but not me” he cried, and Felix blinked.

“You like Minho?”

Jisung continued crying without replying, and Felix smiled.

“I can help you get his attention” he said, Jisung looked at him.

“Huh?”

“Trust me, but I need to settle something first” Felix replied and patted his shoulder before leaving the room.

He went to the males chamber and barged into Gowon’s room.

He was having sex with another person!

He pulled out of the person, and the warrior rushed out of the room.

“Felix, he’s just my fuck mate, that was nothing” Gowon quickly said, pulling up his pants.

Without warning, Felix transformed into a nine-tailed fox that he is, his nine tails glittering with his white eyes.

“Felix no!” Gowon’s eyes widened, but he pounced on him immediately, and his screams filled the whole room as he started hurting him.

Cobra slept off in the middle of the butterflies earlier, but he finally woke up when a gangster came to call him out.

His visitor is here again.

He wasn’t smiling as he walked out of the room to meet the visitor in the corridor.

“Here again?” He said when he saw the masked man.

“Jungkook found the truth about how that slave was used already, and you should know it won’t be advisable to use him anymore. Right now I need to destroy Jungkook using Nimon, he’s the only one capable of killing him” the man replied.

“Nimon? god of Destruction is hiding right now, he hasn’t been revealed” Cobra replied.

“I can find him if I read the volume 2 of the book, but I only laid my hands on the fake”

“Then find the real” Cobra replied.

“I need your help” the man replied.

“150 bags of silver” Cobra said.

“Done”

Taehyung was already on his knees in the resting room when Jungkook came out of the bedroom.

He sat on his favorite chair and never spoke, till Taehyung looked up.

“Please forgive me my sins, I know I’ve crossed my limits your majesty” he said, and Jungkook sighed.

“If you’re here to talk about what happened at the orchard, then I’m not ready” he said, and Taehyung stood quietly.

“I’d love to stroll the city today, your majesty” he said.

“Permitted” Jungkook replied, and he left the suite.

Almost immediately, Jimin came out of the bedroom, looking effortlessly beautiful despite the fact that it’s still early.

He smiled when his eyes met with Jungkook’s, and he rushed to him.

He sat on his laps, and Jungkook kissed his eyes as usual before Jimin dipped his face into his broad chest.

“Did you sleep well?” He asked, stroking his hair.

“Yes” he replied cutely.

                               †

<10AM~WOODS>

Just like the other time, Jimin followed old Gantzo to pick herbs, and they’re almost done right now.

Old Gantzo dropped the herbs basket and faced him.

“Need to ease myself, wait for me here” he said, and Jimin nodded.

He left hurriedly, and almost immediately, butterflies filled the place.

It came in doubles till the whole place became filled up, and his eyes widened.

“The butterflies again, Whoa!” Jimin said happily and caught one easily.

“I see you like butterflies a lot” a voice said behind, and he quickly looked back.

“Namgil!” He gasped when he saw the feminine man.

He smiled, and Jimin rushed to him.

“Good to see you again! Did you call out the butterflies for me?” He asked.

“Yes, want more?” He asked.

“No that’d be greedy” he replied, and Namgil smiled again.

“But… Are you really a male? You look too much like a female” Jimin said, staring at his long dark lashes.

“Believe anything” he replied, and Jimin held the hem of his robe, then he touched his long hair.

“It’s silky” he said, and Namgil began staring at him so much that Jimin noticed.

“Is there something on my face?” He asked.

“Oh!… No” he replied awkwardly.

“Can I call you Namgil hyung?” He asked, and Namgil smiled.

“Sure” he replied, fixing a red flower in Jimin hair.

“See you soon!” He winked and vanished.

“He’s gone” Jimin smiled.

Numerous boats are on the water, and fishermen are on it, fishing happily.

It’s a bright day, so the fishes came in multitudes, and the boats are almost full.

“It’s been a while since we caught a lot like this!” One of the fishermen said excitedly.

“I know, right? I hope it continues like this” another one replied.

“The gods of the supernatural beings are finally having pity on us, I can’t ask for more!” Another said, and they all laughed heartily, but that was their last laughter because an heavy wind began blowing immediately, taking the fishing nets away from them.

The boats began tumbling and tossing into the water, and the men landed in.

The worse happened when a mighty fish appeared on the surface of the water and started swallowing them alive till the last one.

The fish transformed into a man immediately.

He’s wearing a crown of horns, looking so satanic, but when he smiled, he’s cute.

“Finally I’m back to Goguryeo, and I had a large meal” he said, rubbing his tummy slowly.

“I’m back!!!”

                               †

Jimin went straight to Rose’s room when he got back, and he met her knitting.

“Knitting again?” He said, sitting beside her.

“I’m done with this cloth, try it on” Rose replied, and Jimin pulled off his robe, then he put on the low v-neck robe which looks so good on him.

It’s colour cream.

“I love it mother! Thanks!” He gushed, and Rose smiled.

Jimin pulled it off and dressed back in the robe, then he sighed and sat beside her again.

“Mother…” He held her hands.

“Is there something you want to tell me?” Rose asked.

“What does it feel like to fall in love?” Jimin asked.

“You’re in love with the king, right?” Rose replied, and his eyes widened.

“How did you…”

“You have to erase your feelings for him Jimin. Make your heart stop beating for the beast” Rose interrupted seriously.

“You know he’s a beast?” Jimin’s eyes widened again.

“That’s not important right now. The most important is that you can’t continue falling for him, it’s dangerous!” Rose snapped.

“Why is it dangerous? Why can’t I fall for him!” He snapped back.

“Because he’s destined to kill you!” Rose shouted before realizing.

“What!” Jimin gasped.

“So stop falling already, I can’t lose you” Rose said and started shedding slow tears, shocking him more.

“Jimin dear…. just please…” She cried.
