Broken Promises ( Bts X Yn ) 2. Behind the Door

At the south wing of the palace footsteps echo..

Yn said to her self

He owes me an explanation. Not as a king. As the man who held me in his heart once..

She approached the king's chamber quite

It's already late at night

The door is slightly ajar.. Candle lights flickers inside

From inside she heard

Jihyun

You did well, Jungkook. The entire court now bows to you alone

Jungkook

It had to be done. The council needed assurance.

Yn freeze behind the door

Jihyun

If you let her take the power it will be a humiliation for you..

Jungkook didn't say anything..

Jihyun

Now Euphoria belongs to you.. Power suits you my king..

Yn stumbles back, breath caught, heart racing

So I was only the key to his rebellion..

She runs back to her chamber..

A few minutes later she heard a knock on her door.. And a servant entered..

unknown

My Lady, I have urgent news.. It's general Jimin..

What? What happened?

unknown

There was an attack in the prison. But—he escaped. Somehow.

He escaped?

unknown

Yes, he disappeared beyond the palace wall.. No trace..

Thank the stars... He is safe

She collapsed on bed

He’s alive. My brother is alive. Maybe we still have a chance to make this right.

Next morning

In throne room

One soldier came

unknown

Your Majesty… We recovered a body near the border.

Tension hangs in the air like smoke

Jungkook

Did you identify the body?

unknown

It was him. General Jimin was shot with three arrows. He was trying to cross the borders..

no..

She dropped on her knees..

unknown

he was wearing the same clothes as he wore before escaping.. And also his face isn't recognisable any more.. It must be damaged in brutal combat..

No it can't be possible.. He never loses any hand to hand combat before

Jungkook

Clear the room

Jungkook order.. And everyone leaves quietly

Did you order it? Tell me, Jungkook. Did you kill my brother?

Jungkook

No..

He said softly kneeling in front of her..

He can't take her tears..

Jungkook

I didn't order this Yn.. Trust me.. I don't want this to happen..

He tries to touch her cheek..

But

Don't.. Don't you dare to touch me.. I don't care if it's you or not.. All I cared about was my brother.. my only family who cares about me..

You order him to rot in prison..

Jungkook

It was never meant to end this way.

But it did. And now the only man who ever protected me is dead—because of you.

She leaves the room with a hollow heart.. Yesterday she hoped for a chance but all of it was taken in a blow..

The war may be over.. But she is still fighting on her own..
