When Jimin arrived at the scene, he was terrified to see Joon strangling
his wife. He became so angry that anger boiled inside his body. The backup team
arrived too at the same time. Jimin hesitated no second; he pointed the gun at
him and just shot.
Unfortunately the bullet hit his shoulder. Lee
Joon fell on his back under water.
Jimin ran towards them and got into the water
pool as well. He made his way to Myeong Jo who was unconscious. Half dead you
can imagine.
"No!" Jimin yelled as soon as he saw
her poor state.
Her head was bleeding and her neck had the marks
of that bastard's fingers. Jimin carried her and took her out of the water. The
backup team captured Joon; hand cuffing him.
Jimin laid her down on the ground. He placed his
ear over her chest. There was no heartbeat.
"No.....no! Myeong Jo-ah.....No!" he
began doing CPR on her chest. Well he had basic medical training. He kept doing
that and blowing air in her mouth. The Minister called the ambulance fast.
"No.....please.......not her...please God
not her! Myeong Jo.......wake up....... please........" he didn't know he
was crying at the same time doing countless CPR.
Jimin never stopped for a second and kept
blowing air inside her mouth, then back to CPR. Again blowing air then CPR.
"Please....please......please......"
Yet there was no sign. She was........
"NO! NO! NEVER! PLEAE GOD! NO, MYEONG JO! DON'T LEAVE ME.....
PLEASE......!" He cried so loudly that his voice echoed along the falling
water from the mountains.
The guards kept staring at their King. He had
never been so weak. He had never cried in front of others. He was so strong and
kingly. But now, their King was broken like glass.
Knowing there will be no use of keep doing CPR,
he still didn't stop. His face was getting red and sweaty. And his eyes were
undescribable. The mixture of pain and guilt overflowed inside his eyes.
"I-I'm so....sorry....Please.....Wake up!
Myeong Jo! Please........ Don't leave me like this........God Please!"
There was no hope. She was gone.
That was what the others thought.
Suddenly Myeong Jo gasped and opened her eyes! Water flowed down from
her mouth and she breathed again.
Jimin jumped out of surprise at first. Then he
knew she was coming back to life. He held her hand tightly and looked at her eyes
that were opening and closing repeatedly, "Myeong Jo-ah, it's okay. I'm
here. Nothing happened to you. I'm right here..."
Myeong Jo at first couldn't see anything. Her
vision was completely blurry. Her neck felt much pain and her heart was beating
really fast. But she heard a peaceful voice that sounded lullaby to her.
She knew. She knew her Jimin was here. Right
beside her. He saved her.
"J-Jimin?"
Her voice cracked and Jimin; ignoring everyone's
eyes just took her whole body in his lap and hugged her. He was so relieved. He
almost felt he was going to die.
The others including guards and poilices just
averted their eyes but smiling and blushing; seeing their King's valuable love
for their Queen.
Jimin still didn't stop crying. He was sobbing
softly and feeling her wet body that was the only thing he wanted now. A minute
ago, she was half dead and now she's breathing and protected. Her hand slowly
moved to his face and she turned his eyes to her.
He looked at her directly with those red eyes.
"T-thank you.......I love you,
J-Jimin......" her voice was no louder than a whisper just made his whole
body shook.
This was the first time she expressed her love.
Well, Jimin planned that he would be the one to say those three words first to
her. But looks like, the table turned.
Though he was still not over the fact she was
almost dying; he burst out into chuckling and hugged her more tightly.
"I Love You too....Myeong Jo......so never
ever leave me." he whispered into her ear.
She nodded really slowly and smiled.
[Flashback ends]
Myeong Jo didn't realize it was already afternoon and her cheeks had
those tears again. After hearing such a tragic story of their........no. Jimin
and Myeong Jo's real love for each other was indeed a story to remember. She
now realized that she's been doing a great sin all these months.
Jimin cupped her cheek with one hand and using
his thumb, he brushed the tears away.
"Joon got life imprisonment. For attempted
murder of The Queen. But now....after all these years....he managed to escape
prison." Jimin softly said, trying not to scare her.
Myeong Jo's eyed widened, "E-escaped?"
"The whole Kingdom has been notified about
him. They are all searching for him and I put Special Tight Security around the
castle in case he is coming for you."
She felt a bit scared. After all, that man tried
to rape her in the past and strangled her to almost death. It wasn't her but it
was the real wife. The same woman with the same body and everything. Except for
the memories.
She was lost inside her own thoughts.
"Hey, don't worry. I'll never let anything
happen to you. I promise." he leaned closer to her face and kissed her
lips soflty.
"You're safe until you're mine. Don't be
scared. I'm here with you." he let her rest her head in his chest.
Myeong Jo was silent. The thought how both of
them loved each other in the past just made her feel so much more guilty. If
Jimin gets to know this girl here is not his wife.........she's afraid he might
just lose it. She just breathed heavily and closed her eyes; just resting
inside his body.
-----------------
"Jimin, I'll be fine. You know it seems
really weird that both of us are in a room more than 4 days. The household
maybe thinking we are doing something......." Myeong Jo crossed her arms
over her chest; looking at Jimin who is playing on his phone.
"What do you mean doing something?" he
smirked.
She tried hard not to blush but said, "You
know.......things...they do after..... Marriage......."
Jimin chuckled at his silly wife and sat
upright.
"Yah....I just want to make sure you are
safe. Lee Joon hasn't been caught yet. So let's just be in one room till
then." he laid back down on the bed.
Myeong Jo seemed pissed off right now.
"Are you crazy?! I am super bored in this
bedroom. There's nothing for me to do." she walked to his side of the bed.
He didn't look at her as his eyes were fixed on
his screen.
"I want to chat with Ji Eun. She seemed
pretty sociable." she wondered.
"Yah, give Jungkook and Ji Eun some time
alone. They are newly couples. We shouldn't bother them." his eyes didn't
move.
Myeong Jo frowned and went to take a seat in the
small balcony they had beside their room. She sat on the chair and closed her
eyes. The sun was on its way to set down.
"Damn, that was close!" he kept
shouting at his car in the video game. "Ppalli, ppalii! Go fast!"
She got annoyed with his voice screaming like that so she stood up and
walked towards his side. She crossed her arms again, staring at him.
It took him 3 minutes to realize she was
standing right beside. His game was finished so he was about to laid back down
when he finally noticed her existence and jumped in place!
"God! You scared me." he muttered.
"Scared you? Jimin, stop being a bodyguard
and let me be out of this room at least."
He sat upright and cleared his throat. Myeong Jo
began pouting and lowering her head.
"I'm so bored. There's nothing to do
here." she whined a little.
Jimin turned his eyes to her, "Nothing to
do here?"
Before she could look at him, he pulled her by
her hand on the bed; her back facing the bed, her head resting over the pillows
and Jimin on top her.
(A/N :
Think of these Min Ho & Ji Hyun as our Jimin & Myeong Jo for now)
Myeong Jo's cheeks turned red within a second.
She was flustered and also surprised by his sudden actions. Her eyes widened
and she bit her lips.
Jimin smirked slightly and caressed her face for
a while then made her completely comfortable by pressing his lips on hers. She
couldn't refuse so she held his nape and kissed him back slowly.
Jimin pulled away and smiled lovely. She
couldn't stop blooming a smile on her lips too.
"We can do so many things inside one room,
you know......." his voice began to sound heart fluttering.
She blushed and hid her face inside her palms. Jimin held her hands and
interlocked his hands with hers, putting them aside on the bed. He stared at
her eyes for a long time then she felt embarrassed so she began blinking.
"Can you let me admire your beautiful face
for once?" he pouted a little.
Myeong Jo stopped blinking, "I never said
this but I feel like you are a man with duality."
He smirked and raised his eyebrows,
"Really?"
"Like a second ago, you were being like a
man and the next second, a cute baby and now back to man mode." she
pinched his nose and smiled.
Then Jimin suggested, "So I am cute and
sexy?"
Myeong Jo thought for some seconds, "You're
cutie, sexy and lovely." and ended up blushing and smiling again.
Jimin chuckled and kissed on her forehead for a
long time. Then his lips went to her lips again; devouring her inside his.
"Knock, knock."
Their kiss eventually broke because someone was at the door. Jimin
sighed cutely and went to answer the door. Myeong Jo sat upright; fixing her
hair.
The door revealed the Secretary of The Minister.
She looked a bit worried.
"My Lord, I'm sorry to disturb you but
there's a fire in the kitchen...." she panicked while saying.
Both Jimin and Myeong Jo became surprised.
"F-fire?" he asked to be sure.
"Nae. Please you have to get out of the
castle. The fire is spreading everywhere."
"Call the fire brigade right now." the
secretary nodded and ran away.
Jimin took some necessary things from their room
and put them inside a bag.
"Myeong Jo-ah, come on. We can't stay
here."
He walked out of the room. Myeong Jo was about
to but she found herself in a normal dress that just covered her thighs a
little. She looked down and then at Jimin.
"I'm coming. You go first." she turned
back to change herself.
"Yah, you don't have to...."
She looked at him again, "And let the
others see their Queen's bare legs while her husband should be the only
observer?"
That was the only way to make him agree. He
blushed like a girl and fell in love with her deeply again.
"Go! I'll be there in a min." she
urged him so Jimin just went out of the room towards the hallroom.
Myeong Jo came out from the washroom after changing into long dress. But
when she came out, the whole room was dark. She was sure the lights were turned
on before she went inside. Maybe the electricity became loose because of the
fire.
The balcony door was open wide, the wind was
blowing the curtains. She somehow didn't feel alone in the room. As if she
could sense someone's presence in there.
The room was so dark that she couldn't see
anything. She tiptoed inside and was about to open the door.
It was locked.
Strange who would've locked it? She reached her
hands on the lock. It was locked from inside. She was sure she didn't lock the
door.
Suddenly she felt a hot breath behind her; on
her neck.
"Annyong, Myeong Jo."
