Chapter 7 - Spend time together

Ari: "Yn! Let's buy this!" she said excitedly at a food stall.

Yn: "I've never had this before, Ari. Let's try it!"said Excitedly We bought it and eagerly took a bite…

Only to scream in horror the very next second.

Yoongi and Jungkook rushed toward us.

Yoongi: "What happened?!"ask worriedly

Ari: "It's so spicy, Alpha!"said hurriedly

Yn:Tears welled up in my eyes..It was so, so spicy but Suddenly, someone gently took the stick from my hand and replaced it with cotton candy.

I took a bite without even seeing who it was.

The moment the sweetness touched my tongue, I sighed in relief..Then I turned—and my heart skipped a beat

JUNGKOOK..!!

He gave one to Ari too but I was just looking at him..!!

Yoongi: "Who told you to eat that?! Do you two not know how spicy that was?" He scolded the both Omegas

Ari: "We've never seen it before… we were curious."So we buy it..said with a huge pout

Yoongi sighed and wiped the tears at the corners of Ari eyes and said

"Don't be sad… eat this." He pulled her into a side hug.

Yn pov:

I looked at them, smiling softly.

And then… I wiped the tears at the corner of my eyes..I didn't have anyone like Yoongi Hyung.

Ari was Indeed lucky.

But I suddenly felt a presence beside me. Not suddenly…he had been there from the start.

I widened my eyes and coughed softly—our secret signal.

Ari caught it immediately and pulled away from Yoongi. They stood apart instantly.

Yoongi looked confused but then understood.

Jungkook didn't know about their relationship…

Ari was just the head chef's daughter.

Yoongi was the royal advisor's son.

If anyone found out… it would be dangerous.

But Jungkook… he stayed quiet.

Yoongi: "Jungkook, don't—"

Jungkook: "You have my word. I won't say anything." said calmly with his Cold Voice

We all sighed in relief.

Yn pov:

I looked at him…He really has a good heart, I thought.Then why… why does he only behave this way with me?

Then I moved a few feet behind him. I knew he didn't want me near..It was better this way.

Yoongi and Ari were lost in each other again.

Jungkook walked ahead, silent… but always checking the surroundings.

Yn pov:

I walked behind him, watching his back.

Sometimes that's all I got to do…Just see him from a distance.

Then Ari stopped at a shop filled with shiny stones and bracelets.

Ari: "Alpha, I want this!"said excitedly

Yoongi: "As you wish." smiled at her softly

Yn:I looked at them fondly.

Then… I turned my gaze to a little jewellery shop nearby.

And my eyes landed on a pendant—a beautiful chain with a red stone.

I picked it up carefully.

"Grandma, how much is this?"

Grandma: "Huh… 50 gold coins, dear."

Yn: "50?!" I was stunned.

Grandma: "It's a rare stone, sweetheart."

Yn:I placed it around my neck and smiled at the mirror. It looked… pretty.

Grandma: "You are glowing, Dear."

Yn:I smiled brightly. But when I checked my pouch—my heart sank.Only 20 coins..!!

Grandma:Do you want to buy it !?

Yn:I showed a forced smiled at her and said "No, I don't want it… I was just—"

But suddenly Someone interrupted

Jungkook (suddenly): "No. We're buying it."

He handed over 60 coins.

Yn:I froze in my place..He… bought it? For me?

I smiled… but then scolded myself. Don't be stupid, Yn. He probably bought it for Princess Aera.

Why would he buy it for you?Then the grandma said—

Grandma:"I see you love your Omega dearly. Buying her something with extra gold coins, then wear it around her neck yourself. She'll be happy."

Yn:My eyes widened in horror.His Omega…?

We're not mates!..I panicked to stop.. Before Jungkook kill us any one of us..!!

"No—No, we are not—" But stopped when Jungkook took the pendant from her hands

My breath hitched hitched when He stepped behind me.His fingers gently moved my hair aside.His chest brushed against my back.

I clenched my fists..I literally forgot how to breathe.He clasped the chain gently around my neck.And when I turned slightly…

My lips brushed the corner of his lips..I froze on my spot

He looked at me with his dark doe charcoal eyes

I dropped my gaze, trembling.Now He'll hate me even more now…

Then He stepped away without saying anything.

I opened my eyes again…First thing,I saw my reflection..I was glowing..My eyes were teary.

But I looked beautiful..Just for a moment.

Grandma: "I think it was made for you." said smiling

Yn:I looked at her, stunned. Then at him.

He was just silently watching. Then Our eyes met.

His gaze pierced through me—dark, unreadable.

But I could feel it… he didn't do this willingly.

He only did it because of Grandma's words.

I smiled sadly..Still… it was the best day of my life.

The First thing I get from his hands..And I wiped away my tears quietly.

Grandma:You both are looking like you made for each other..!! Enjoy Your day and take care of your Omega..!! Said smiling

Yn:I widened my eyes at her..I am crying internally

I don't even wondered if JUNGKOOK kill me here

Jungkook: "Let's go."

Yn:I nodded immediately then We started walking again.I noticed Yoongi and Ari still at another shop..Something came over me…

I reached out and held Jungkook's hand.He halted on his spot and turn towards me..His Dark eyes was staring at me and our hands then I pulled away immediately.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness. But please… don't go to them. Let them be together. They rarely get time like this… let's not disturb them."

He just looked at me and at them

His gaze made my heart race.Then… he nodded there is no rush in his actions

Jungkook: " Let's go this way."

Yn:I nodded my head and we both walking beside each other and I called him softly "Your Highness…"He turned back again slowly

I showed him my little pouch.

"I only have 20 coins… please take them. I'll repay the rest later."

But he stayed silent with his unreadable expression but suddenly he raised his eyebrows and said

Jungkook: "I don't need it." then he started walking..

Yn:That hurt more than I thought it would.

But still… I held his hand again.

He looked down at our hands again..I let go again quickly.

"Please…Take this..if not that, then let me buy you something..I know it's not much… but please… take it as a small thank you."I looked at him with puppy eyes.He didn't say anything.

Then finally… he nodded.

I smiled brightly and jumped in happiness.

"Let's go!" I pulled him to a jewellery shop.

I check everything then I immediately something caught my eyes..A ring..!!I smiled fondly and ask

How much is this..!!

Shopkeeper: "20 gold coins."

Yn:I smiled brightly and paid quickly and turned towards him with a big smile.

I took his hand in my hand slowly..I hold the ring with fingers about to slide it but then paused.

What was I doing?I look at him nervously..who already looking at me..I gulped and I placed the ring in his palm and said

"This is for you. I know it's nothing compared to royal jewellery… but whenever you see it, I hope you'll remember this day…

how we all spent time together here in the markets."

But he didn't say anything.

Just placed the ring in his pocket.

I smiled… sadly.I know He'll probably throw it away.Still… we explored side by side.

Sometimes…our hands brushed.

Butterflies formed in my stomach.

This night…It became the most beautiful memory I ever made.Even if my heart ached for some reasons..It was the best day of my life.

And I'll never forget it.
