chapter twenty

" Kang Minwoo! Why would you betray me? The king?" Namjoon roared, standing up on his place.

" I—I?" Minwoo trembled in fear, this was never the part of her plan.

" Jeongguk wouldn't lie! I trust him more than you!" Her husband's eyes burned with rage, disgust and hatred .

Being humiliated in front of numerous kings and queens was the last thing she wanted, but there she was. Exposed.

Her posture changed from fear to cold.

" You were the reason I had to do this!" Minwoo roared back.

Jeongguk sighed, " I'm sorry that y'all had to witness this but let's call it a feast, apologies."

No sooner Jeongguk announced, the dining hall was empty with only the Jeongs and Kims.

" hyung, peace." Jeongguk hushed the elder who was trembling with rage.

To him, Nari was like an younger sister who he used to adore. Apart from Jeongguk, it was only Namjoon who could command Nari and she would take it, ofcourse Jin was one of the authority too.

But the eldest couple was still in state of shock, not ready to accept that someone from their own family could do this.

" I knew it the day Nari passed away and doctor said that she was fed cashews and groundnuts." Jeongguk muttered quietly.

Namjoon stood there, balling his fist to gain a control over his rage.

" kang Minwoo, why did you do this?" Namjoon asked. Just by the voice, one could tell that he was about to explode his anger. No matter how calm and sane the middle one was considered, yet the loss of his loved one because of someone he loved, was unacceptable.

" for Youn-jae. My child is eight now, once the king's child would have come, all the attention would have gone to him, and you know how much attention Youn-jae is used to. Also, even tho being the youngest, he's the king and now Seokjin oppa, the tradition would have continued.

Now if the king has no son, Seokjin oppa has a daughter, only Youn-jae would get the throne. I wanted him to be the king!" Minwoo admitted leaving everyone is shock except the king, leaving Namjoon in tears.

" s-so you killed them?!" Namjoon roared, flinching everyone in the room.

" you didn't only look out for your selfish reason but also you killed one happy family! The king, Jeongguk was so happy and eager, waiting for the little one to come in this world, Nari was excited too! You didn't only snatch away their love but also his own lover! I've never seen a cruel homewrecker like you Kang Minwoo! I dare you to stay in this kingdom and come close to my son or me ever again!" Namjoon announced, everyone's eyes going wide at his conclusion.

" hyung, no. Banishing is not the solution." Jeongguk interrupted, looking up with all the unsaid emotions in his eyes.

" Kang Minwoo should be forbade from meeting Kim Youn-Jae for her life along with the punishment of life imprisonment. This is my order. The custody of Kim Youn-Jae belongs to his father and his only guardian, Kim Namjoon." Jeongguk announced.

The sin of separating a child from his mother and a husband from his wife could never be forgiven but punished.

The same night, king was found deceased beside his lover, Jeong Nari's grave will assumption of possibly heart attack.

" YN no!" Taehyung pulls you back from the stove, switching off the gas.

You were right now in the kitchen, making coffee for yourself since you had to stay awake for another hour, or maybe more ; until Jungkook woke up.

" wh— where are you even lost?! You could have burnt yourself for god's sake!" Taehyung exclaims in panic.

" oh— sorry! I—" " Jungkook woke up!" Misoo dashes in with a flabbergasted expression, breathing heavily as she ran all the way from one end of the palace to the other.

" Jungkook, oh my god!" You don't care about your coffee anymore but your love, who finally chose to wake up.

You rush to your room, slamming the door open.

" Jungkook! " you grin heartily, your eyes shinning with tears of relief.

" you're finally awake " you approach him.

" mi casa, is that you? "
