Jeon Jungkook
I am Jeon Jungkook. Son of Marquis.
Jeon Jungkook
I was born without love. My mother had once been a lowly tea maid who schemed her way into the Marquis’s bed, and through that union, I was born. Her ambitions earned her the position of a lady maid, but by nature she was greedy and constantly schemed for higher status. I was nothing more than collateral in her plans. When I was seven, she began sprinkling white powder into my porridge. At first, it only caused stomach pains, but as she gradually increased the dosage, my small body grew weaker and sicker. By the age of ten, she had raised the dose further, ensuring I was bedridden for days. She needed me forever frail and weak so that she could gain pity from the household, especially from my father.
Jeon Jungkook
No one cared enough to discover the source of my illness. They simply avoided me, fearful of catching what they believed to be some disease. My mother stopped poisoning me only when she finally achieved what she wanted—a son.
Jeon Jungkook
My mother is the disease I have.
Jeon Jungkook
With her son's birth, she secured her place as the fifth concubine of Marquess Li. At fifteen, I finally found some peace. Forgotten by everyone, I lived like a ghost while my mother doted on her son. No one noticed that I was no longer sick, and I quietly lived in solitude, passing my days peacefully in a small courtyard, reading.
Jeon Jungkook
But the peace ended when a maid came and announced that the Marquis wanted to see me.
servant
"master! master! Marquis have asked for your presence"
Jeon Jungkook
"Lead the way"
Jeon Jungkook
why he called for me I don't know.In my eighteen years of life, I had seen my father only a handful of times. Because I was always sick and unfavored, he never cared for me, and my instincts warned me that being summoned would not end well.
In sometime they reached the Marquis room
jungkook knocked on door and entered the room when he heard a "come in"
Jeon Jungkook
My fears were confirmed when I entered the room to find the Marquess, his wife, concubines, grandmother, and all my half-siblings gathered. My mother, holding my baby brother with a doting smile, didn’t even spared me a glance.
Marquis Jeon
"I have fixed your marriage with Prince Taehyung.Start preparing for your marriage. "
Marquis Jeon
"you are lucky to be chosen as his bride"
Marquis Jeon
"you can go now"
(jk bowed towards all of them and thn exited the Marquis Jeon's room)
Jeon Jungkook
I am the youngest sub son, plain compared to my beautiful half-sisters and sub brothers, yet I was the one being married off before them. Their delighted smiles gave me the answer.
Jeon Jungkook
My future husband is Duke Kim, also known as Prince Kim Taehyung of Euphoria Kingdom, the most favored grandson of the Great Emperor Wu Huizhong. At only twenty-three, he commanded over 500,000 soldiers and a special force of 200,000 called the “Black Mask.” He is powerful, feared, and infamous. Though he had hundreds of concubines, he had never taken an official wife. It was said that he used women like paper—once used, easily discarded.

servant
"master the carriage is ready "
No one came to see Jungkook off.
He sat inside the carriage and carriage started to move after almost one hour they reached the Prince's manor
Jungkook's wedding night was silent and cold; He was left alone in bed, untouched. There was no laughter, no smiles, no tears—just another day passing. The groom never came to lift the red veil from his head. Instead, through the thin walls, he heard the cruel truth—the moaning of another woman. It was intentional, a mockery. He was treated as nothing more than a joke. Removing the veil himself, He realized he was in a room no different from his own chamber at the Marquis’s estate.
He went towards the small vanity and removed the heavy crown and jewels, staring into the mirror only to see a ghost staring back—skin pale, lips colorless.
Though it was spring, his body was cold, his heart empty, while the moaning beyond the walls continued relentlessly. Stripping off the crimson bridal gown, he sat by the window, far from the bed and its shame, gazing at a dark sky without stars or moon. That night, he fell asleep against the window sill, clinging to no desires, no hopes, no dreams—only the truth that he was, once again, alone.
Jeon Jungkook
Life at the Prince’s manor is no different from my days at the Marquis’s estate. No one paid attention to me—not the maids, not the servants. I lived in solitude in a small, empty quarter, passing the days with the few books I had brought. Meals were left outside my door by a maid who came and went so quickly I only ever saw her shadow. I grew accustomed to this lonely existence, until one day a maid told me the Prince requested my presence in the main hall.
servant
"master the prince have asked for your presence"
saying that the servant left
Jeon Jungkook
Though confused, I knew disobedience would bring trouble, so I obeyed.
Finding his way to the hall alone, Jungkook arrived late and was met with fury. The tall figure in the center of the room struck the stone table with his fist, cracking it, his anger filling the air. Jungkook bowed low, afraid to look up. Giggles sounded from Taehyung's concubines, beautiful women gathered around him, one of them pressing against his chest in an attempt to soothe him.
Kim Taehyung
"you are quite bold to make me wait"
Jeon Jungkook
My eyes fell on his dark red shoes and the dragon-embroidered robes. His voice was deep and fierce as he rebuked me for my delay, reminding me of the sun’s scorching heat. I had learned as a child to stay silent in the face of anger, so I did. But where others dismissed silence, the Prince saw defiance. Suddenly, he seized my arm. The pain was sharp, but I swallowed my cry. Forced to meet his gaze, I for the first time saw his storm-colored eyes—dark gray, like heavy rain clouds.
Jeon Jungkook
Yet, to my confusion, as quickly as he grabbed me, he released me, as though burned by my touch. Looking down at my trembling arm, I saw the bruise his grip had left behind.
