"You may now kiss the bride" - Priest

Author's P.O.V

As the days cascaded like petals in the wind, a fortnight had swiftly passed. In that time, a bond had blossomed between BTS and Ri-El, one that was tender and true. Ri-El discovered the warmth of family, a feeling that was both foreign and comforting. Mr. Kim's heart swelled with joy at the sight of his daughter's laughter mingling with that of BTS, a sound as sweet as music to his ears.

The Maknae line of BTS found a sister in Ri-El, vowing to be her shield against any storm. Yet, there was one who watched her from afar, his gaze lingering a moment too long. Ri-El, aware of his watchful eyes, kept a careful distance.

Today marked the day of union, the wedding day. The air buzzed with anticipation as Ri-El ensured the security was tight, BTS fine-tuned the arrangements, and Mr. Kim stood at the altar, his gaze fixed on the horizon for his bride.

The guests had gathered, a sea of faces bright with cheer. Blackpink, adorned as bridesmaids, fussed over their mother, ensuring every detail was perfect.

The moment arrived, and Ms. Jeon, escorted by her father and flanked by her bridesmaids, made her way down the aisle. Ri-El, poised between Taehyung and Jungkook, watched on with a serene expression.

"I entrust my daughter to you, take care of her," Mr. Jeon implored Mr. Kim, his voice laden with emotion.

"Fear not, Mr. Jeon, she will be cherished and protected," Mr. Kim assured him, taking Ms. Jeon's hand in his.

The priest beckoned the ceremony to commence. "Let us begin the wedding," he announced.

"Do you, Kim Joong-Ki, promise to love, honor, and cherish Jeon Yeo-Bin, in joy and in sorrow, in health and in sickness, for all the days of your life?"

"I do," Mr. Kim affirmed, his eyes alight with admiration for Ms. Jeon.

"And do you, Jeon Yeo-Bin, promise to love, honor, and cherish Kim Joong-Ki, in joy and in sorrow, in health and in sickness, for all the days of your life?"

"I do," Ms. Jeon echoed, her voice steady and sure.

"Exchange the rings," the priest instructed, and with that, they were bound, ring to ring, heart to heart.

"You may now kiss the bride," the priest declared, and Mr. Kim did so with a passion that spoke of endless love. Applause erupted in the hall, a celebration of the love that united them.

Amidst the celebration, Jungkook's eyes searched for Ri-El, only to find her indulging in her sixth bowl of ice cream, a picture of serene contentment. The Hwang siblings' arrival was a pleasant interruption, their greetings echoing warmly.

In-Yeop, caught in a moment of hesitation, was brought back to reality by Ri-El's commanding presence. "Guys let's go and greet Mom and Dad," she urged, her voice cool yet compelling.

"Ri-El," In-Yeop murmured, his heart whispering her name.

"Let's proceed," Namjoon encouraged, and the group moved to offer their congratulations.

"Speak," Ri-El prompted In-Yeop, her impatience evident.

"You look... gorgeous," he managed to say, despite the tremor in his voice.

"I am aware," Ri-El replied, her expression unreadable, yet In-Yeop sensed the flutter of her heart. He smiled, knowing well her stoic facade.

As he looked up once more, Ri-El had vanished from sight. Searching, he found her moving gracefully towards her father. In-Yeop knew, beyond her icy exterior, she was his cherished princess, and soon, she would be his queen.
