The Vengeful Mistress's Scheme
ᵒⁿᵉWhispers Of the Past³
The Guzheng's music dances with beauty, yet its shattered strings possess a piercing edge that can wound as deeply as a honed blade.
Jungkook
In Jiseang House [Jiseang is a type of entertainer in Korean dynasty time]
Jungkook took a deep breath as he picked the Guzheng.
The beautiful instrument gleamed in the soft light of the room, and he couldn't help but feel a mix of nerves and excitement.
This was his first day at the Jiseang House as an entertainer, and he hoped to make a good impression.
Jeon Jungkook \ Past Life
💭 I can Do this (encourages himself)
The room was filled with a hushed silence as Jungkook began to play the guzheng.
His fingers moved effortlessly across the strings, coaxing a beautiful melody from the instrument.
As he played, he began to sing, his voice soft and haunting, fitting perfectly with the music.
The other courtesans and patrons in the room watched him with rapt attention as he played.
They were captivated by his performance, by the way he moved as he played, his graceful and elegant gestures adding to the enchantment of his music.
As Jungkook left the stage, he was immediately swarmed by the guests, many offering him tips and compliments on his performance.
Unimportant Person
That was incredible (one guest said) You're the most talented musician we've had here in years.
Another guest stepped forward, a sly smile on her face.
Unimportant Person
You must be tired after such a beautiful performance (she purred) Why don't you come and rest with me in my room? I'm sure we could find plenty of ways to... relax.
Jungkook graciously accepted the compliments, but shook his head at the offer from the woman.
Jeon Jungkook \ Past Life
I appreciate the offer, but I'm afraid I have to decline (he said respectfully) I'm exhausted and need to rest.
Unimportant Person
(She pouted, clearly disappointed) Are you sure you won't change your mind? (she running her hand lightly over his arm) I can assure you, you'd have a better time with me than on your own.
Despite the woman's insistence, Jungkook remained firm, gently pulling away from her touch.
Jeon Jungkook \ Past Life
I'm sorry, (he said firmly, maintaining a polite smile) I really must decline. Thank you for your interest, though.
Jeon Jungkook \ Past Life
The woman sulked, clearly used to getting what she wanted.
Unimportant Person
Your loss (she muttered, giving him a final, frustrated look) You don't know what you're missing, my dear.
Jeon Jungkook \ Past Life
Perhaps someday I'll change my mind (he Replied, still maintaining his composure) But tonight, I simply need my rest.
With a final polite nod, he excused himself from the group and made his way to his room. Pushing open the door,
He breathed a sigh of relief, glad to be away from the relentless advances of the guests.
Jeon Jungkook \ Past Life
💭 I'm Glad I could Do as Jimin Taught me. (smiles to himself)
Being relaxed, as Jungkook was in the process of undoing the ties and fastenings of his hanbok, sighing in relief as the restrictive garment loosened around his body.
The soft silk of the fabric slid over his skin, providing a cool, soothing sensation after his performance.
Suddenly, the sound of a window opening abruptly interrupted his moment of relaxation.
He jumped, his hands automatically grabbing at the hanbok to cover himself.
His eyes darted around the room, searching for the source of the sound.
Then, he spotted the man who had come through the window, standing in front of him.
The man was tall and imposing, dressed in clothing that spoke of wealth and power.
His face was hidden in the shadows, only his eyes visible, glowing with an enigmatic light.
The tension in the room was palpable, and Jungkook felt a shiver run down his spine. Despite his fear, he tried to maintain a veneer of bravery.
Jeon Jungkook \ Past Life
Who are you? What are you doing in my room?! (He demanded, attempting to sound firm and authoritative) You must leave at once, or I'll call for the guards!
The man took a step forward, and Jungkook instinctively pressed his back against the wall, trying to put as much distance as possible between them.
？？？
I've been watching you (his voice low and smooth, as if he was merely stating a harmless fact) Your performance earlier was quite enchanting. I felt the need to pay you a visit.
Jungkook's heart raced faster in his chest as the man's words sank in.
He had been watching him? For how long? And why had he come to visit him like this, in his own room?
