Chapter Text
The sun is setting and the music has started, some drums to accompany his steps to the arc where he will meet his soon-to-be husband, Ice Territories' weddings were not emotional at all, they will say their vows to each other and that was all but the Ceremony of Power Unification was totally different, magic combined was always something to celebrate, most of the noble families had at least one heir of magic, in the Kim line all the Kings had a fair amount of magic power so they wont be challenged in their positions. Either the manipulation of water in his liquid state like Kim Junmeyon The Great or the ability to froze a person’s body with a single note of his voice like Kim Jonghyun The Eternal, all the Kim Kings had always something to assure the realm it would be protected.
Seokjin was nervous, his hands were sweating and the paper that he was given with the vows he had to say was already wet in them. His mind tried to find an explanation for what was about to happen, he had plans even with the arranged marriage with the Earth Empire heir, he still had some time to do what he wanted to do but now, he had nothing.
The drums were changing the tempo, he had to walk straight to the arc, say the vows and then everything will be over, his dreams, his hopes and himself. Seokjin even had to give up his surname, his bloodline, the pride of his Father and ancestors will disappear from him, as he was about to take a surname he knew as to be the enemy’s name. What a joke, this wasn’t the enemies to lovers stories he liked since he was a teenager, where the villain would fall for the hero. This was a nightmare he couldn’t wake up from.
Music stopped, it’s his signal to start walking and do what’s expected of him. The Prince’s feet have started to move at their own will, no matter how much his inner voice is screaming to not do it, his body is walking towards the arc where Seokin can now see, the man with who he's bound to tie his life, forever.
The hair is cut short, but some rebel hairs give the man a relaxed image. The skin is white not as the snow, not that cold but as the warm milk Seokjin used to drink after he got bad dreams. The eyes resembled something feline, the lips were thin but what grabbed Seokjin’s attention was the hands: long fingers and perfect cut nails, those hands were veiny and manly but at the same time delicate and they seemed soft.
Seeing the Min’s heir hands reminded Seokjin that he still had to manage the Power Unification ceremony and he wasn’t sure how to do that.
Once Seokjin was facing the Iciem Heir, he noticed he was a bit taller than his future husband but that didn’t make him not notice the waves of power coming from the man in front of him, his only existence was enough to send a message and that made Seokjin happy, maybe this is what his people needed: someone to rely on, someone who could protect them for real and not just do charity work like him.
‘We are all here, in this historical day to unify our clans, our nations and our people’
The man speaking was someone Seokjin didn't know, probably from the Iciem Kingdom, the man was speaking about the time where the Ice territories where united and every family was happy and together, a past that might hopefully repeat itself once the Ice Territories become one, with this marriage.
Seokjin lost track of the time while watching the floor, he started to hear nothing but his breathing, his blood pulsing in his ears, feeling his corporal temperature drop…
‘Your vows Prince Seokjin, if you may…’ Seokjin was still with his eyes fixed on the floor ‘Prince Seokjin…’
A boot touching his feet put Seokjin out of his mind and the first thing he saw was the Min Heir's face, he had a half smile and nodded in the old man's direction.
‘Sorry…ehem…’
‘Your vows Prince Seokjin, please’
‘Sure, of course…ehem’ Seokjin took a deep breath and in the middle of it, he gathered the strength he needed to be done with this ‘ I, Kim Seokjin Prince of Glacia vow to be your shield and your sword, to advice you wisely and to be your support in the good and bad times, to protect our people and protect you from any enemy we may face. I pledge you my love…’Seokjin swallowed hard at the mention of that word ‘ my love and my companionship for as long as I live. You are mine and I am yours, always and forever’
Seokjin drank the wine from the cup the old man offered and took the ring from the cushion, a silver one and he put it on the forth finger of his husband’s left hand.
‘Now it’s your turn Heir Prince Yoongi…’
The Min Prince took a step ahead to get closer to Seokjin. His eyes were trying to find Seokjin’s but the Glacia Prince just fixated his sight in a point above his equal’s head.
‘I, Min Yoongi Heir Prince of Iciem vow to be your sword and shield, to hold your sorrow and affliction away, to protect you, our people and our land, to take your advice as law for my actions and to…’ Yoongi closes his eyes and his fists ‘to love you and honour you every day of my life, because you are mine and I am yours, always and forever’
Yoongi took the other ring that was resting on the cushion and put it on Seokjin’s finger, his hands were cold so Seokjin reacted taking his hand away from his now husband’s hand.
‘This is the time we have been waiting for, as the Princes of the Ice Territories are now together, so is our land united again as it always was: one’
All the people were standing and clapping their hands, some of them had teary eyes and Seokjin saw his Father nodding in approval.
‘You may kiss your husband’ Seokjin looked at his husband who took his hand and placed a chaste kiss on his knuckles ‘Of course our next King is so respectful with his husband’ the old man laughed along with all the people in the garden ‘ May all Boreas blessings fall into you, our realm, our land and our people”’ the old man took the hands of the newlyweds and raised them as one.
‘Always and Forever’ he said and his voice was echoed by every person present at the wedding ‘Always and Forever’
Seokjin left his hand on his new husband so everyone could see the unity, It was important to present the unity for the now united realm, even if he was shattered into a million pieces.
‘King Min, your Majesty…’
The voice came from a man who looked around their age, Seokjin didn’t recognise him so he must be from Iciem.
‘Yes Kihyun?’ his husband said holding his hand tightly.
‘The Ceremony of Unification will take place a bit later as we have to wait for the right time for the equinox’ The man took a look at Seokjin who was still trying to compose himself from the wedding ‘Would you and your husband come to the hall so you can rest a bit and wait?’
Seokjin felt his hand being pulled.
‘Do you wanna come with me and have some rest? I think we both could use it’ his husband’s voice was calm. Seokjin nodded and left his husband to lead the way.
He found himself sitting in a coach, next to his husband who put something warm between his hands.
‘You are, ice cold Seokjin’ The man in front of him was worried, smiled and in front of him with a cup exactly the same as the one he had between his hands ‘Drink up, it’s gonna get cold if you don’t’
Seokjin drank, it was sweet and warm, and the door of the hall opened again. It was Senior Advisor Byun, who was smiling brightly.
‘Hello, I just came to say that the ceremony will take place very soon so I hope you had some time to speak…’ Yoongi smiled and Seokjin pursed his lips ‘I take that as a no, well you will have to speak because you know, you are married’
Seokjin moves in his place and Yoongi gets up, puts the cup on a table and looks at Seokjin while Baekhyn takes a seat. He’s walking around biting his fingers, Seokjin knows Yoongi knows about his lack of power, he must have felt it while holding hands.
‘If I may…’ Baekhyun starts, ‘I think you both know the situation you will face soon, you both have to show our people your powers. It is known Seokjin lacks that, well that’s not fair because he can you know light up’
‘Light up? How?’ Yoongi said ‘My people told me about your lack of powers, so I was aware even before holding hands with you, don’t worry about that, we will make it’ Yoongi sat next to Seokjin, ‘How do you…light up?’
Seokjin does not say anything, he moves his fingers and sparks go out of them as little fireworks.
Yoongi smiles and his gums are out. ‘Cute’ he pats Seokjin's back ‘I think we can make it, leave it to me’
Seokjin is not talking, this man investigated him, learned about his lack of powers and still said ‘Always and forever’ to him.
‘Very well, Lord Glacia, Lord of Iciem, do you find this…agreement amicable?
‘I do’ Seokjn speaks for the first time since the wedding vows.
‘Sure, why not’ Yoongi said ‘but I think my lord, you are addressing us wrong’
‘I am very sorry’ Baekhyun bowed 90 degrees ‘You Majesties, I’ll see you soon’
Baekhyun went out of the hall, and winked at Seokjin while walking through the door. Yoongi finished his cup of tea and sighed.
‘Are you okay?’ Seokjin asks ‘You seem, tired’
It was very obvious Yoongi did not have a minute of sleep since who knew when, he had a light shade of purple under his eyes and his face was actually looking tired.
‘I’m fine, I just…’ Yoongi looked at Seokjin ‘May I be honest with you?’
‘Well I guess that would be nice as we are, you know, married so honesty should be part of our lives’ Seokjin said taking the empty cup from Yoongi’s hands and placing it on the table along with his, still half full.
‘I am tired. I came here thinking I would marry your brother because that's what your Father actually told mine, suddenly in the middle of the trip I learned it was you who I had to marry…’
Seokjin felt his heart going all the way down to his feet, of course, the powerful heir Min Yoongi wouldn’t marry the useless, powerless firstborn of the Kim clan…
‘I know what you are thinking, and it’s not like that’ Yoongi reached his hand but Seokjin was already standing far away from him ‘Seokjin, it’s not like that…please’
‘It’s okay, I know who I am and what I lack but I swear on my clan and ancestors that I might not have powers in these hands but I want my people to be happy and cared and if I have to give every single spark in my body to achieve that I will…’ tears were forming in Seokjin’s eyes, it was always the same the humiliation of not having any real magic running in his blood. ‘I will prove it to you, to everyone’
Yoongi looked at him, sighed and put his head between his hands.
‘If I may finish, I was gonna say that a lot happened so I couldn’t sleep and I like sleeping, when I don’t sleep I get angry and irritable and then I had to memorise the bloody vows and Kihyun wouldn’t shut up’
Yoongi rested his head on the couch and he looked really tired. Seokjin pursed his lips, maybe he was mistaken in his thoughts about Yoongi’s thoughts.
‘Was it disappointing?’
‘What?’
‘Learning that you will be marrying me instead of Taehyung?’ Seokjin closed his eyes, he prepared his mind to listen to the same answer he had been listening to all his life.
‘It was actually a relief. I could never be with someone like your brother, too much energy. I like calm’ Seokjin opened his eyes and found Yoongi standing in front of him. ‘I promise you won’t regret this, let us be…friends’
Yoongi offered his hand, and Seokjin hesitated a bit but took it in the end.
‘So the Unification…’ Seokjin starts
‘Oh yes, just use your sparks I’ll do the rest you don’t need to worry’ Yoongi smiled ‘But we have a bigger problem about the ceremony’
‘Bloody hell, now what?’ Seokjin raised his voice tired of surprises
‘Well…’ Yoongi giggled ‘we have to kiss’
‘Really? Like…you avoided it last time’ Yoongi frowned ‘No, I mean of course we have to kiss but maybe when we know each other better’
‘I will take a little peck from you in the end so everyone will buy it okay? Nothing more, do I have your consent?’
Seokjin bit his lips, he had never kissed anyone, how would it feel to have Yoongi’s lips on his?
‘You have my permission’
The knock on the door breaks the little bubble.
‘Let’s finish this. Light it up Seokjin’ Yoongi smiled ‘We have something to do’
‘Oh shut up, Yoongi’
Yoongi offered his hand and Seokjin took it, for the first time in the whole day, Seokjin released all the air in his lungs, relieved.
The time for the ceremony has come, and Seokjin has changed his robes into white ones while Yoongi is wearing black ones. Light and dark as one said Sehun while finishing his job. Both men were looking at each other while the people started to gather around.
The priestess was already there, her blue nightgown and her silver crown all to make the ceremony succeed.
Seokjin was nervous, Yoongi had told him to just release his sparks but it was not like his sparks were a shooting star, they were just sparks, tiny and insignificant little lights from his fingers.
Yoongi was calm and tired of Kihyun who was all around the place yelling at everyone.
“He’s a perfectionist I take it?” Said Seokjin while smiling
“He’s also my best friend, I don’t know what would I do without him” Yoongi smiled “Do you have a best friend Seokjin, maybe they can come with us”
“He can’t, he’s a member of the Royal Guard he’s vowed to this land and my Father” Seokjin hadn’t thought too much about how he had to leave everything he knew and loved behind him because the grieve was not part of a wedding celebration. “I will say goodbye tonight so we can go tomorrow morning”
“I’m sorry Seokjin” Yoongi said and squished his hand “It’s gonna be good I promise, I will be good too”
“I know”
And that was the most sincere thing Seokjin had said all day.
The priestess gave them both a goblet, once they both drank from it. She started to sing while holding hands with her sisters so Yoongi and Seokjin’s union would be blessed by Boreas.
Seokjin was shaking and Yoongi held his hands tighter to offer some comfort and support.
“It’s time your Majesties” the priestess said and Seokjin held his breath. Yoongi closed his eyes and the air started to feel colder, the trees stopped singing with the wind and a bubble of glass started to form around him and Seokjin.
“Light it up Seokjin” he whispered and Seokjin started to show his sparks on his fingers, he closed his eyes wishing this would end quickly.
The bubble started to shape a nice flower form around both of the now Kings, and every part of it was lighted too, it looked like a crystal, an illuminated one so Yoongi took the bubble and with some help of the wind made the flower float above their heads.
Yoongi was so concentrated on keeping the flower above him frozen that he did not notice anything until someone left a soft whimper. Seokjin was glowing and so was he, the flower above him was now like a star falling from the sky, and all the forest behind them had lights in every tree just as if Christmas had arrived early.
“Seokjin…”Yoongi called his husband in an attempt to show him what was happening but his husband had his eyes closed and his lips pursed. Yoongi saw Seokjin’s Father expression probably thinking this was Yoongi’s doing but it wasn’t. “Jin…”Yoongi hugged his husband and everything lost the light.
“Yoongi…” Seokjin fainted in Yoongi’s arms.
Everyone was still looking at the star above the newlyweds, no matter the darkness the flower was glowing and Seokjin’s fingers were still showing some sparks, so Yoongi thought maybe it was too much energy for Seokjin and broke the flower into millions of crystals that went directly to everyone in the audience.
“A gift from me and my husband, may this light stay with you forever” Yoongi carried Seokjin out of the place they were and Kihyun was ready with some other guards to take both into the security of the castle.
“That was amazing Yoongi, I never knew you could manipulate the light too”
“It wasn’t me Kihyun…”
“You mean Seokjin, but everyone said he did not present any power just…”
“Sparks, are still light” Yoongi places his husband in the bed and put some blankets over him “Please let everyone know we will start our wedding night right now, so I don’t want anyone near this room”
“Sure, I’ll send our healer you know, just to check on him”
“The first time I touched my magic, I slept for a week”
“Nothing will bother you my King, rest well” Kihyun closed the door and Yoongi lay down next to his husband.
The first light of the day was touching his eyelids, he felt and heavy but for some reason he was not cold. Seokjin notices something next to him and smiles to see Yooni sleeping, he’s covered with the blankets but not the same as Seokjin, he probably thought it would be disrespectful to sleep under the same blanket without asking judging by how he asked his consent for a peck. A peck that did not happen if he recalls correctly, the last part of the ceremony is a bit blurry in his head.
A knock on the door made Yoongi open his eyes.
“Good morning, how are you feeling?”
“Tired I guess, I fainted right? I’m sorry it must be due to all the stress of the wedding and Taehyung’s runaway…” Yoongi is looking at him very confused “What? Let's talk later we have to go, if I am correct I have little time to say goodbye”
Seokjin is out of bed and Yoongi puts on one of the robes that were left for them, Seokjin rans his hand on his hair to try to put some order and once he’s ready they both go out of the room.
“Do I have to say something about last night because…”
“You don't have to say anything you don’t want, you are now the King of the Ice Territories” Yoongi said “You will do as you please”
“You mean King Consort,” said Seokjin “It’s different from being a King”
“I meant King Seokjin, you aren’t just my husband you are a King”
Seokjin stopped his steps, Yoongi did not hesitate in what he said, Yoongi did not stop walking until he noticed Seokjin wasn’t with him.
“Are you coming?”
And for the first time Seokjin felt like someone was really there for him, waiting for him to take a step towards the future.
“Yes husband, I’m coming”
Carriages were already loaded, horses rested and ready to go back to Iceman where Yoongi would be officially coronated and Seokjin would be by his side. Yoongi offered Seokjin a nice horse white as snow to ride together and Seokjin thought the horse was from a fairytale.
“His name is Moon, you can have it if you want” Yoongi said while going up to his own saddle a black stallion called Snooze.
“Oh husband, I always wanted a horse” Seokjin was so happy he hugged Moon and felt in his nose the scent of fresh snow and pine so he was helped to go up on the saddle.
Seokjin turned his back to see for the last time the castle that he grew up in, full of memories but also full of pain. The pain of being never enough no matter how much he tried, the pain of having to sacrifice everything for everyone else…but now he had a chance to make things right. His husband started to walk and all his people with him so Seokjin followed Yoongi and didn’t look back.
By the time the night was above them, Seokjin felt his legs numb although Moon was a fantastic horse he wasn’t used to riding for a long time so he was getting tired of his tights feeling like burning.
“I think I will take the carriage if you excuse me Yoongi”
“Are you feeling alright?” The man asked while pulling Snooze’s reins “Kihyun…”
“Yes, Your Majesty” Kihyun was two horses behind them so he came quickly “Ah, are you tired Your Majesty” Seokjin nodded “Don’t worry I will send for the carriage, it will be here in no time”
Kihyun was right, Seokjin dismounted Moon and went inside the carriage.
“Aren't you coming?” Seokjin asked to Yoongi
“Don’t worry about me, I’ll keep riding. Stretch your legs and get some sleep” Yoongi urged his horse and Seokjin lost vision of the King.
Once inside the carriage, Seokjin was given some food and water and he took off his boots and his cape. Seokjin wanted to speak to Yoongi about last night to fill his memories but didn’t find a way of doing it, even if Yoongi was an understanding man he still felt that line that separated them into the strangers they were.
Getting to Iciem took them three whole days and nights, the wind gave them a hard time and the cold hit them the whole way back to Yoongi’s home. Seokjin was freezing no matter how many robes he put on, Seokjin was always cold, the reason why Yoongi tried to not touch him as his skin was cold to touch almost always. Seokjin got bored and Kihyun gave him some books about the new realm he will be living in, everything was so organised and easy to read so Seokjin learned about the people, the needs, the history of Iciem and how the Mins have had the held of the monarchy for centuries almost as long as the Kims had Glacia but with the difference that Iciem was in the frontier of the Fire Nation so its people had their fair share of tragedies: burnt forests, flames devastating entire towns, all the horrors that Seokjin could imagine were already suffered by the people of Iciem.
Once they got to the castle, Seokjin was introduced to the Min King's court, who said the arrangements for Yoongi’s coronation were already done so in a few days King Min would step down from the crown and his son will become the ruler of the Ice Territories. The Court did not pay a lot of attention to Seokjin or ask anything about him so the newly arrived King went to his room alone, as Yoongi had some matters to attend to.
“If you need anything, Your Majesty, please let me…”
“Oh Kihyun enough with that. Your Majesty this and Your Majesty that, just call me Seokjin… it's gonna be better”
“I can’t you are the husband of our ruler it would be disrespectful and my honour and vows don’t allow me to call you by the name your parents called you” Kihyun was indeed a well-educated man
“I just need a friend here and I know you are Yoongi’s so maybe you can be mine too?” Seokjin asked and Kihyjn softened his gaze “Call me Your Majesty in public but if we are alone call me Seokjin”
“I can do that, do you need anything Seokjin?” Kihyun smiled and Seokjin moved his head in response “Alright, I'll leave you to rest” Kihyun felt nervous as he was trying to say something
“What is it Ki?” Seokjin already had a nickname for Kihyun
“Just to tell you, Yoongi will not be coming to your room tonight or any other night he knows you want to be respected and he will give you enough space. You are free to see the castle but please let your guards know you will be out so they can keep you company or at least have an idea of where you are”
“I will”
The door closed and Seokjin went to the bed, took his robes off and cried until he fell asleep.
Some weeks passed and Seokjin barely saw Yoongi, Kihyun was always the one who accompanied him to his meals and gave him a castle tour it seemed Yoongi was too busy before the coronation to at least attend his new husband.
“He’s not a bad person, he’s just you know, a very private person…he doesn’t have brothers or sisters so he was always by himself,” said Kihyun while walking through the gardens with Seokjin
“Until you became his friend”
“Even with me, he’s very reserved but I am his right hand it is my job to know what’s he up to” Kihyun smiled and picked up a rose from the garden “For you, Your Majesty”
Seokjin sighed and took the rose from Kihyun’s hand.
“What happened in the Unity Ceremony, I remember the priestess singing and Yoongi making an Ince bubble around us I felt the sparks coming from my fingers but the next thing I remembe is that I was in bed” Kihyun touched his hair nervous “Come on just tell me”
“I think it would be better if you talk about this with Yoongi, it is really not my place. If you excuse me I gotta see the Real Guard now. Have a good day Seokjin”
Kihyun almost ran from Seokjin and left him with more doubts and questions. Seokjin kept wandering until the garden became the forest and then when the sun was setting Seokjin knew he was lost.
The forest was dark and cold, his eyes weren’t able to see much further and he did not recognise anything around him. At Glacia he knew every single tree in the forest behind the castle but here everything was unknown.
Seokjin sparked some light from his fingers but it wasn’t enough to see in the dark, Seokjin thought it would be better if he just sat and waited until he was found by the guards as he did not think his husband would go for him personally.
He sat in the forest, he was tired, he tried to light some sparks but his efforts weren’t successful. Seokjin gave up and then a white light started to shine in front of him, Seokjin thought it might be a firefly but the light started dancing, going forward and returning to Seokjin.
“Oh you want me to follow you?”
The light danced again in front of him and went to his feet and then again to his face. Seokjin followed it, around the trees and passed a little river, he saw some stones with runes standing tall in a plain field.
After some minutes of walking the light was off and darkness trapped Seokjin again.
“Great, yes Yoongi I followed a light through the forest that's why you couldn’t find me” Seokjin sighed and then his eyes saw a little cabin, with light inside “Oh Boreas I’m saved”
Jin ran toward the cabin and knocked on the door. A girl opened the door, Seokjin noticed she was blind so he just...
“Hello, I’m sorry to disrupt you I am…”
“I know who you are Kim Seokjin, I’ve known you since you were born. I knew you would come to this land because that was your fate”
Seokjin felt insecure about entering the place, this child spoke with the voice of someone older.
“Don’t worry what you see is what it is, don’t be afraid Your Majesty you are safe here. I will send a word so your husband knows where to find you, please have a sit”
The girl was as tall as to reach Seokjin’s chest, she was fast and put some bread and water in front of Seokjin which the king devoured in minutes.
“What’s your name?” Seokjin asked
“Do you ask me as a friend or as my King?” The girl asked back while sitting in front of Seokjin, her feet swinging with our reaching the floor
“As someone who would like to know you so I can call you by your name and say thank you" Seokjin said and smiled
“You can call me Shadow, it’s what people call me” the girl replied
“Do you live by yourself here without an adult?”
“Don’t worry about me Seokjin, I may look like a girl but I have lived more than all your family has been sitting on the throne of Glacia”
Seokjin just went silent, maybe she was one of those creatures in the forest that the fairytales mentioned. Kihyun gave him several books about them.
“I am an Oracle Seokjin, I exist here as long as there is something to say about someone and their impact on the future of this land. I saw you lost and trying to light some sparks and I sent for you so you won't hurt yourself”
Seokjin was amazed, he knew about the Iciem Oracle but he thought it was more like a fable to entertain children.
“You will stop feeling the way you feel with time. You are destined to do greater things in this land and for its people. Back in the day the Crystal Snow went lost because it was used for violence, what people don’t know is that once the time is right the Crystal Snow will come back and the light will sit in our realm again”
Seokjin was confused, the Crystal Snow was a legend but there was no trace of it being real, nothing more than the hope of the people.
“You might not believe me right now King Seokjin but you will know what to do once you free your heart of worries and burdens you will be free and happy. This land and its King will bring you what you have seek all your life”
A knock on the door interrupted Seokjin to ask more, the girl opened the door and Yoongi was there with seven more guards.
“It’s late Seokjin let’s go” Yoongi said to his husband, he was angry and Seokjin just lowered his head knowing it was his fault.
“Goodbye Shadow, thank you for having me”
“Face yourself Kim Seokjin and you will be free”
Seokjin went out and saw Moon among the horses. He went up on his back and followed his husband back to the castle in silence, when they arrived one of the stable boys helped him go off Moon and he patted the horse.
“Thank you Moon, I’m sorry it’s late. Have some rest” Seokjin followed Yoongi inside the castle and into a room full of books. His husband closed the door.
“Yoongi I’m sorry, I just lost myself in the woods and…”
“Are you trying to die? Is it that difficult to be here that you want to die?” Yoongi replied with anger “Is being here, being married to me so unbearable that you want to die?”
“What are you talking about, I got lost as I was walking and Shadow…”
“Oh Seokjin please, Shadow is not something to play with, it is an Oracle you are lucky it did not ask you something in return for what it told you”
“It’s just a girl…”
“It’s a dangerous creature that will ask something in return for answering your questions. Why would you ask?”
“I did not ask, Shadow spoke to me first and then you arrived and…”
Yoongi sat in one of the chairs, tired, pressing his nose with one hand while closing his eyes.
“Please Seokjin, I can’t play your bodyguard while you are here…”
“You can't even meet me while I am here”
“What was that supposed to mean?” Yoongi opened his eyes and the air felt colder than before
“I am just saying that you haven’t even asked me if I settled correctly since we arrived, I know I am not the love of your life but you won't meet me and just send Kihyun to distract me and I am tired of being ignored. I can help with whatever you need, I…”
Yoongi stood up and faced Seokjin, he might be smaller but his aura was so powerful that Seokjin swallowed hard.
“Listen to me, I do not have time for your games. I do not have time to go and look for you because your childish tantrum means you get lost to have some attention, I have to unify the Ice Territories and you are giving me extra work with your stupid behaviour”
Yoongi felt his cheek burn after the slap. His face was in pain because he, the King of the Ice Territories Min Yoongi was slapped.
“I will not tolerate this from you, I might be your husband but I am also a person who deserves respect and if you can't give it then we have nothing to talk about”
Seokjin went out of the room and closed the door so hard that everyone around could listen to his anger. He went to his room and asked the maids to tell everyone not to bother him until the day after tomorrow so he locked his door, took off his robes and cried in his bed until his eyes had nothing to shed.
“Nothing will ever change for me right?” He asked the sky “I just don’t deserve to be happy”
The stars were silent and that was exactly the answer Seokjin knew would dictate his fate.
