The Duke & His Haughty Fiance ((~Taekook~)) Madame Jeon

......

✳️

Most people in the Mythara (cultivation world) respected their parents.. Taehyung understood that much..

But he had always thought this world was different from the cultivation world.. Over the past few days, he’d seen many strange things he’d never encountered before.. So he hadn’t expected to witness something so familiar..

Kim Taehyung

🗯️How did these two get along..?

He studied the woman—elegant, fragrant, dressed well but not overly so.. If she hadn’t looked so mature, he might’ve thought she was Jungkook’s sister..

When she entered, she didn’t even glance at the chair Jungkook had pulled out.. Her eyes were cold and distant, landing straight on the little fox in the bed..

Jeon Ye-ji

Small...

She mumbled coldly and Taehyung blinked.…

Kim Taehyung

🗯️Huh..i could understood her..?

The words were crystal clear, cutting through the haze like a blade..

Taehyung hadn’t understood most of the people around Jungkook, even when they talked directly to him..

But this woman’s voice — cold, sharp, and laced with emotion — landed straight in his mind.. It wasn't just her words.. It was the way she looked at him.. Like she saw him, judged him, and dismissed him all in a breath..That kind of focused, spiritual energy… it broke through whatever veil still lingered between him and this world..

But Taehyung quickly forgot about that because after scanning him from head to tail her expression turned more sharp as she repeated in an icy voice..

Jeon Ye-ji

Its eyes are so small...

Taehyung lying on the bed..

Kim Taehyung

🗯️......!?Is she looking down on me!?

He was a white fox.. A rare being with ancient blood.. Capable of turning human.. Able to charm others with beauty..

Kim Taehyung

🗯️How could she say my eyes are small..?!

Jeon Ye-ji

This is the one Suga let you form the contract with..?

The woman asked, still staring down at Taehyung.. She was slim, but her presence was overwhelming and heavy..

Jeon Jungkook

Yes mother..

Jungkook replied..

Jeon Ye-ji

He picked something this useless!?

Madame Jeon frowned coldly..

Jeon Ye-ji

Then he might as well have let you die two days ago..

She said and the room fell silent..

The words “useless” and “thing” made Taehyung’s claws itch.. He had always shown patience toward women, but this time, it was hard to hold back..

Still, the second half of her sentence stopped him..

This wasn’t the kind of mother Taehyung knew.. His own mother, a simple fox, had given him warmth he could never forget, even after a thousand years..

He had a special feeling toward the word “mother”.. And now, for the first time, he heard a mother wishing her own child dead..

Taehyung turned his head toward Jungkook.. But Jungkook’s face didn’t change at all.. Like he’d heard it too many times before..

Jeon Jungkook

We will leave for the Capital Star the day after tomorrow..

Jungkook said, calmly moving past it..

Jeon Jungkook

The scans showed the poison and energy storm have been stabilized..

Mrs Jeon paused.. Her fingers stiffened slightly, but her expression stayed cold..

Jeon Ye-ji

What’s the point of that..? Are you giving up the war..?

Jeon Jungkook

No..

Jungkook answered firmly..

The conversation ended as Mrs. Jeon threw out one last sentence..

Jeon Ye-ji

You can't live without the capital star and the war!!

Then she turned and walked out.. The door slammed shut behind her..
