I quietly sat on the bed of the old room and let my eyes travel around. My fingers caressed the white dress on the bed that Taehyung's grandmother gave me to wear because it was not comfortable at all walking around this small house with gown I must in the castle.

I slowly undid the corset, which always made it difficult for me to breathe in while wearing it all day around the castle, although it was nothing compared to what Jugyeong had to wear.

I put the corset on the bed and took a deep breath before I slipped the dress off my shoulders, down my body and let it slowly fall on the ground.

I shrieked when the door was suddenly opened while I tried to put my dress back on.

"Ssh it's me Princess" He chuckled and I could feel my cheeks redden at the sight of his dark stare.

"All mine" He said with a smile and I chuckled while looking away.

"Come here" He said and opened his arms. I immediately ran into his hold and rested my head on his warm chest as he protectively wrapped his strong arms around my body and locked us into the silence of the nature around us.

"You okay?" He asked me after a while and I lifted my head from his chest to look at him. The sunlight was caressing his dark eyes, painting them a shade lighter than I was used to seeing.

"I'm okay, just really happy..here, with you, in your arms, with your family." I smiled and rested my forehead against his beating chest. A deep chuckle vibrated through his chest as he held me tighter "Me too."

"Taetae?" The knocking on the door made me flinch in his embrace. He laughed deeply in my ear before cupping my face with both of his hands and giving me a kiss on the forehead before pulling back.

"We will finish this talk later, princess" He said before pulling away. "Im coming little brat" He shouted back and I pouted while wrapping my arms around my own body.

"Missing me already?" He teased me while tilting his head to the side and watching my chest raising and falling heavily. I nodded with a laugh and he couldn't help but smile.

"Very" I answered him as the warmth of the room radiated on my skin, making me feel dazed.

He took a step in my direction and towered me with his height. I blinked nervously up at him while he placed a strand of my hair behind my ear but another knock on the door made him growl.

"It's okay Tae" I smiled at him and he nodded, before running a hand through his hair. "I guess destiny has the words annoying kids written very big for us" He shook his head and I couldn't help but chuckle, seeing the visible vein decorating the side of his neck.

With a last glance at me, he left me alone in the suddenly cold room. When he closed the door, I breathed out before placing my hands on my face and screaming happily inside my hand while twirling around on the bed.
